Pusing back against your rudeness is not forcing, its defending myself, especially when you double-down. Or do you expect to be rude to someone and not hear back from them?
Because when someone is trying to do something nice for you, you don't smack their hand way. And I didn't persist trying to be nice, but was calling you out for smacking my hand away, as it was VERY rude to do so, when the alternative was to just let the unneeded kindness go by unmentioned.
Well, when you start with being rude, you should not expect someone to talk "with you", they're going to talk "at you", pointing out your rudeness. Civility has to work both ways, and your communication was rude (constantly pointing out that I was wrong, instead of inquiring further to what I was trying to convey, etc.).
My point is to have conversations with others, but what you think you are doing is conversing, when is not, you're defending. And truly, I would say that you are the one who is not listening.
Nah, don't think so. If you verbally attack someone for suggesting something during a conversation, that can't be good party manners.
You want the right to act as you want with others without them being able to tell you when you are acting poorly. Gotcha.
Honestly, you were being rude, and instead of apologizing, you're doubling down to win an Internet argument in an intellectually dishonest obtuse sort of way. You could have let my astroturfing comment just be, instead of saying I was wrong for stating it, multiple times. A waste of both of our times, and reinforces the "no good deed goes unpunished" philosophy with me.
Pushing back against my rudeness? You think what I'm doing is rude and what you're doing is OK because you think I was rude.
I didn't smack your hand away, I made a joke based on your odd assumption. If you only wanted to be nice, why are you pushing me at all? When I try to do something nice, and the person receiving it doesn't like it, I apologize, because I did something to them. That they didn't like. That is the polite thing to do. The nice thing.
Trying to brow beat the other person into appreciating what you did or worse, to get them to apologize to you for not liking what you did is not nice. It's controlling behavior. It's bad behavior. You are behaving badly and rudely. No amount of ridiculously irrational ramblings is going to change that.
I already knew what you were trying to convey, I was not the one ignoring the other. Which most would agree is rude behavior.
Hey, I don't care. I was just offering up some friendly advice about how to interact with others. Act how ever you feel you need to. It just looks to me like you're missing the mark on what you claim to want to do. By all means, keep messing up, it doesn't affect me one way or the other.
I'm sure you would say that. I'm sure that in your head I'm the bad guy and you're some kind of crusader whipping me into submission for having the gall to respond differently to you than how you wanted me to.
And yes, I am fun at parties. Not sure why you think otherwise from a small sample of our interacting. It's kind of irrational.
Well this doesn't make any sense. Do you want to read what I try that again?
I wasn't. I have nothing to apologize for. If it makes you feel any better, I don't think there is any winning in an Internet argument. I honestly thought this was just some weird exchange and not an argument at all.
If you think it's a waste of time, and you're not getting entertainment out of it like I am, then why am did you keep replying?
I stand by what I said. Have a good day.
Alright, buddy, have fun.
