I didn't mean to offend, in fact I went out of my to try not to offend because I know some people on this forum may be easily triggered or hurt by certain comments. I know this all too well, at certain times I can be triggered into intense fear by the simplest of things. But I posted a "caution" message at the top of the post if it's any consolation. I really really din't want to make anyone feel bad.
And in all honesty, I only said about 1% of what I could have said about "most people."
But on the other hand, "most people" aren't very considerate to me, especially when it comes my opinions, which I try not to voice.
I right off the bat get the "Ohhhhh, what do you think you're better than 'most people'?!?!?" If I do, what's wrong with that? Honestly, what logically thinking, self respecting person looks at the world and goes around thinking they're "better than no one"? Who can look at this cruel and ignorant world and not feel a bit "better than most"?
I don't shove it in people's face, and I try to tolerate even the most intolerable people. In real life I try to keep my feelings towards others to myself and behave humbly around others. But I was just venting bottled up thoughts on this board, it's not a reflection of things I go around saying to just anyone. Just venting frustrations.
In my opinion, if I'm "so great" I should at least have the courtesy to be reasonable and humble to most. A rude arrogant person isn't really "that great" in my opinion.
I am sorry if I broke the rules of the board, I will be more careful next time.
