Having been on the receiving end of a kicking or two in my time I can tell you that its not the physical pain that stays with you...
as childish as the phrase is there is some merit to "sticks and stones..."
I'm guessing you've never been on the receiving end of a proper good kicking then.
Emotional abuse hurts.
not as much as a kick in the gut.
Oh yeah, they are both shit. One last seconds (unless your an idiot who likes to beat themselves up inside) the other causes physical pain that lasts weeks or months.
Oh I've been called names. And now simpsons is on.....
Why bother remembering? What a bloody stupid thing to do.
Very briefly, unless your the sort of fucktard that likes to carry the pain around with them like some jukebox of misery. Move on, ffs.
I doubt it. I'm not talking about a schoolboy fight.
I'm guessing you were never emotionally abused as a child. Its the sort of thing that stays with you for life.
look, this discussion is dumb, unless you want to get into a boasting match about the scrapes we've been into I suggest we move on.
I'm sure it does.
Aaaahhh, a boxing match. Yep, thats exactly what I was on about.
Eh? Are you boasting? Why?
I'm not boasting, what I was trying to say is that you and I could sit here all day claiming that we've been in tougher spots than the other. But at the end of the day neither of us are gonna be able to prove it one way or the other. All we'll end up doing is saying, "Nu-uh, I've totally had harder fights then you". That's all.
You've completely lost me now.
I'm not about "having a fight". I'm on about receiving a severe kicking. The physical pain heals fairly quickly. Post-traumatic stress, flashbacks and anxiety attacks last a little longer.
when you said...
I said...
which is a way of saying (sarcastically)
did that clear it up at all, or am I just getting more confusing?
:rolleyes:
Problem is, most people don't know how.
OK Ill elaborate a bit,
Firstly european culture (which I include America) is the dominate culture round the world, In almost every country the educated elite (doctors layers etc) will mostly speak english (or another european language but mostly english) Also theres probably not an Asian language that dosnt now have english words in it.
Most world famous people are generally white: movie stars etc. European beauty is the considered the highest standard every where in the world. If your black, youl get treated a lot worse by the normal person in the street in Asia and if your white you will mostly be respected.
Ive been in Kenya and spent some time with the Africans there (not much admitidly but I made an effort) White people may be disliked by a lot of people but almost never dismissed or thought not capable, Iin Kenya The Africans seem to hate indians but like white people, the indians generally dont respect Africans much but they do whites. No race will look down on white people as inferior (again this is different from being disliked or even hated) but they will sometimes (remember most of the world dosnt have pollitical correctness in anything like the same way we do) look down on other races, Japanease on Koreans, Indians on Africans etc.
So its an advantage being white, both in (majority) white countries and most of the rest of the world
Very clever I had to google that
