oooh STUD :rolleyes:
In A nutshell :thumb:
We can all learn something form this humble man. Not only can he offer to floss girls teeth with his pubic hair and fight people, he also has the strength of charactor to not react angrily when put under the pressure of people politely asking him to stop acting like an idiot, he simply..... "keeps smiling"
Anyway, why is someone doing a test in the "hallway"
My reaction would be "Okay, bro. I love you though." And I'd move on with my life.
And if they're amused, then that's different than letting someone impair your day by getting "offended", which is what we were talking about.
Listen, bro. If that's the way you choose to live your life, it neither breaks my leg nor picks my pocket. I was simply stating my opinion that I believe letting someone impair your mood with words is silly and counter-productive to your own emotional health.
AFC rants always makes me laugh.
Fuck if I know why they were doing their test in the hallway, but they certainly weren't polite about asking me to stop. If they were, I would have complied without question. If you actually read, I left once the other guy asked politely.
I never claimed to be humble, by the way.

If by AFC you mean this

I can assure you i dont "obey girls like a slave" and I've never had any problems with getting girls/women, in fact ive never had to try and "woo them" or make an effort to pick them up, just kinda happens natural!
One thing i will back you up on is that if if you genuinly have the ability to not be affected by an insult, or if you have never had a complex about anything in your life then well done and that can only be a good thing.
Just remember, nobody wants to hear you talk about flossing teeth with your pubes, it may infuriate people who are trying to study for all the right reasons, mature a little.
See, but your middle paragraph only affirms everything I've said. All my stance has been implying is that it is counterproductive to oneself to be affected by negativity and that you can master your own emotions. For example, I was clinically diagnosed with depression, but I've learned to combat that through sheer willpower. You learn to tame your emotions, so that there's more room for the things that matter than stupid shit like someone who doesn't like you.
I couldn't care less about if somebody doesn't like me Chief as i know im a good person and i do good, my emotions are under control (but not when i'm teaching my other half to drive :banghead: "i said turn the wheel LEFT!!).
I see what your getting at there, and i support the idea somewhat but i dont want to give the impression that i was bogged down by a negative comment because i wasnt, i think its natural to respond, but yes, dont take things to heart sure, let it pass.
Id also like to add that you should be respectfull to others around you, they may wish to escape your bullshit, (just as you may wish to escape theirs) You should identify what behaviour is acceptable in enclosed busy areas.
And yeah, I understand sometimes things can be frustrating. What I'm saying, though, is that it will leave you with much more peace of mind to not let stupid things like words hurt you. I don't think that's bad advice to give anyone. And yes, it is natural to respond, but at the same time, filtering if the statement is even worth thinking about again.
Well i give you credit for not being rude to anyone directly and not losing your temper.
Just remembr whatever control you assert on yourself, others will still be offended by words.
When you suggested a nicer approach, she thought you were being smart, you have to deal with angry people as the worlds not perfect, for whatever reason, she was agitated, maybe it was you, maybe she was hungry, maybe she was stressed, maybe she had got some bad news earlier, the list is endless?
Best option would of been to move away from her in the first instance.
But yeah, I understand people will get offended. I said earlier that you should make an effort not to be offensive, lest you alienate yourself. I was simply stating my opinion on the subject from an individualistic sense.
