Your opinion is (or should be, IMO) welcome on the board. Some humility might help. I'll use some lyrics to illustrate my point, but I'll give credit: "I find no absolution in my rational point of view"... it's Rush, Open Secrets... 1987 (about when you were born?). You might learn something from the rest of the lyrics of that song as well. Take a deep breath before reading, it's no Creed song (chill, Creed is ok but Neil Peart is a lyrical master).
happy reading... and since I'm guessing not enough people tell you this, have a great day.
I wish people wouldn't make assumptions.
I was born in 1986 not 1987.
I know I quoted Creed but I am not a Creed fan.
People tell me to have a great day all the time, I have 2 jobs and am constantly talking to people.
oh and sorry, not knowing the month of your birth, i just took a guess on the year. '86/'87, turns out it doesn't matter at all for the message I was trying to get across, which you missed completely by your overwhelming need to be right and attack only the details of a post, not it's meaning/message.
and on the "smarter than you" (i shouldn't have to say this, but I will, 'yes, I know you weren't talking to me')... that's a pretty bold statement based on what I can only assume (yep, i'm assuming) is a limited interaction with Wilds. While you may (possibly) be smarter based on some detail oriented methodology (i.e., IQ test score), it's clear to many of us that you are a) a poor communicator and b) not really that good at conceptualizing things. Good communication skills and reasonable social skills can be presented as "smart", even if someone scored 2/3 what you got on the SAT (it's a concept, I don't know if you took the SAT and if so, how well you did). Alas, good communication is "hard work", and I'm going to assume you haven't had the opportunity to experience that yet either (there I go assuming again).
(no sarcasm here, really)... I'm glad that you have people around you that like to pat you on the back. I'm gonna take a stab at a psychology concept... I'm guessing no one ever really told you when you did something wrong when you were growing up (again, big picture, not how you held the bat in t-ball) and that "good job" was everywhere around you. Therefore, none of this is really your fault.
Sometimes, when people who have more "experience" than you, have an opinion that differs from yours, maybe, just maybe, if you stop and listen to the reasoning of how they formed their opinion, you might learn something... I know, a hard thing to swallow for someone as smart as you are... what could you have left to learn?0 -

Let's just breathe...

instead of guessing the year of my birth, why not just ask?
that way you don't have to make an assumption.
i got the message you were trying to get across.
far from it, i am an excellent communicator and if you knew me in person you would realize that. but that's okay, i don't take anything personally.
i am not saying that i feel the need for people to pat me on the back. in fact, i don't have that need. however, it happens anyway...because people like me. it's not my fault a few people here on a pearl jam internet message board disagree with me and my opinions.
everyone is entitled to their own opinion. you have yours, i have mine. sometimes people agree, sometimes they don't. it's not a perfect world.
as for arguing, everyone else is just as guilty as i am. why? because it takes two to tango.
how dare you judge me? you don't know what i've been through in my life. i have a lot of experience. of course i could have more. you can never have enough experience. but just because someone is older than me doesn't mean they have more experience than me. i am not claiming to have more experience than others here. i am not making any sort of claim one way or another in regards to that.
life is a marathon, not a sprint.
i respect the fact that people have their opinions and i DO listen to the reasoning of how they formed it...that is part of understanding the opinion. it still doesn't mean i have to agree with it.
i am always open to learning, i learn every day and i love to learn. it's not a hard thing to swallow at all.
i have lots left to learn; we all do.0 -

The last line is the only relevant thing you have said the entire thread Rhinos! So why not do everyone here a favor and quit while you are ahead, okay?I hold the pain, release me!0 -
HEY TEN CLUB....HOW ABOUT SHEDDING SOME LIGHT ON THIS? EVEN A SIMPLE "Next week" WOULD SUFFICE. ENOUGH WITH THE SHROUD OF MYSTERY AROUND HERE. YOU AREN'T DARKWING DUCK...YOU ARE A BUSINESS/FAN CLUB FOR THE FANS. TRY ACTING LIKE THAT MORE THAN ONCE AND AWHILE.
Sorry for the caps but I thought maybe this post would be more difficult to ignore than the previous 8 pages of politeness.0 -

the last line is the only relevant line? so life isn't a marathon, it's a sprint? it doesn't take two people to argue? you know everything i have been through in my life?
please.... :roll:0 -

...but then this. again you don't get it. he said "relevant"... not "accurate". yes, life/marathon, yes, 2ppl/argue, no, us know/your life. jeez man. you said some accurate things in your post, but relevant, not. you just need to keep making your point that the details aren't right. I might have replaced "relevant" with "intelligent"... but that's just me.
funny thing about psychology, it puts people into groups. it wouldn't exist as a science if it wasn't mostly accurate at predicting (in a general sense) who people are and how they act and will act. we're all in a group... yours was as easy to pick out as mine is.
I'm having fun, but it's time to go for a run... have a great day.0 -
