| Social overlapping arguments unwanted advice censoring over tabooing normal things extreme conservative behavior that bitch bartender where I work at gossip the sound of over exited crickets people telling me how to raise my kid people pitying me for having a toddler guests that ask me to split their check at the end of their meal managers that roll their eyes at me for asking them to do their job absurd feminists absurd mysogynists political fanatism extreme atheists extreme catholics people that ask too many questions at movies people that try too hard to find a partner ( obssesion with pick-up sites, seducing 101, psychologic games) dating language that dick toddler that bullies my kid people that read poetry and say " I don't get it, what's the point? why don't you just say what you mean directly?!" people that say art is useless people that say artists are pretentious the bass excess of reggaetoneros | Personal lack of respect for other's opinions or beliefs impatience ignorance passive aggressiveness insistent miss-communication dismissal the mixture of narcissism and low self-esteem |
The difference between the lists of the pissy things, the social and the personal is quite simple.
The things I can accept and the things that bother my inner peace. That's the best I can describe it.
Like a person that pities me for having a kid, I can understand because they have this notion of how young I am and what I'm " missing out" so i guess i sort of understand it.
However when I am arguing with someone, having a disagreement and that other person just plainly dismisses me because they're just so sure they're right, totally grinds my gears.
The social column I believe is mostly made of intolerance and judgmental issues. There's a tone of censorship that really hits close to home. I grew up in a very conservative family, so I know a little about how that feels.
It took me almost three years to baptize my son, not because I had anything against it, but things just kept coming up. It wasn't that high on my list on priorities so I kept putting it off. My grandmother called me one day however and said these words to me " You are responsible for that baby's soul. What are you going to to if ( god forbid!) something happens to your son and he is not baptized?"
I was appalled at that, and immediately thought " if something where to happen to my son the last thing on my mind would be the worry of whether I baptized him or not..."
It's things like that, the passive aggressive type of judgement that really hangs on to you and festers angrily around your insides. It's the misconception of what real priorities are, because they're faded by fanaticism, or the need to be right.
There's something beautiful about tolerance, about the ability to agree to disagree. About saying " I don't agree with you, I don't believe in that" instead of saying " You're wrong. You're wrong. You're wrong."
It had something to do with being fraternal and empathetic to what others believe. I don't believe in God anymore ( I think..) but I'm not one to tell my family " uh yeah guys you're morons for believing in something that doesn't exist". My friend Joey believes in chakras and energy and magic and crystal healing. I don't believe in that, but I'm not going to barge in and tell him " uh dude, you're making a fool of yourself." because that's not respectful. ( that's not what I'm thinking either, just wanted to clear that up)
I'm not talking about not speaking your mind, just about speaking your mind the right way. finding compromise, and taking a moment to listen to the other person.
I'm not one to say what is and what isn't. There's something humble about dipping every once in a while into that benefit of the doubt, it makes us more accepting about our differences.
