You two are having some arguements and you're
trying to look good.... I don't say this to be mean,
it just looks that way... Hehe....
Actually, my intent is not to "look good", it's to have sarcastic fun with my fellow humans, and the fact that I am completely honest with how I feel in the process doesn't hamper that fact in the least
Don't worry about seeming "mean"! Even if you intended to be mean (which I'm sure you're not since you seem like such a complete sweety) then I still wouldn't take you seriously and I would probably just blame it on the fact that you are having a bad day or something and I could never actually take offense to anything you would say, I don't think like that and I haven't for quite a long time.
To me, when people are mean to each other and making idle threats of senesless voilence like my new best friend Misanthrope, it's just a symptom of some underlying problem (as this wasn't painfully evident to everyone already). How could I take offense at such a thing? I can't. I feel too much sympathy for others for such nonsense. But I'm not above poking fun and condescending however, muwhahhah

, but it's all in good clean fun of course.
"my overwhelming compassion for you as a human being completely overshadows anything I feel for you personally"
Exactly, this is exactly how I feel, and sometimes when I read stuff like this that I wrote in absolute sincerity it gives me such a warm feeling, I even got tingles from reading this this morning because I mean it sooo much. I wasn't always so able to turn the other cheek but now it seems I can't do anything but that. For example, as I have said before lots of times, I even feel sorry for those poor muslim afgans taliban idiots who are causing so much trouble in the world right now, as I see it, they are just very dumb and misguided and really don't know any better than a dog who shits on the carpet, if you'll pardon the visual, hehehheh. So you see, if I can find good reason to have compassion for people insane enough to be suicide bombers or whatever, then our young friend's childish threats of tracking me down and beating/shooting me (since he would not waste his "guitar hand" on the likes of me, hahaah
![Lol :lol: :lol:](/data/assets/smilies/lol.gif)
) are nothing I can't chuckle at and it doesn't make me angry or anything, it just makes me feel sorry for him (if he is indeed serious about such nonsense, something that's hard to discern since he claims to be "joking" whenever he says something too silly to take seriously, ie. "I'm going to beat you up if I see you at a forum get-together", heheh how mateur!
![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
). How could I take such innane nonsense seriously? I simply can't, I'm not 10 years old and this isn't recess in the schoolyard, it's just too ridiculous! heheh
Ehm.... I don't see how you can love someone as a
human-being and not love the personality.
It's the personality that makes a person!?
I can, and do, and it requires no effort on my part at all, it's just the way I am. The reason I am like this is because I don't have this huge wall that separates me from others and ultimately, when I look into the eyes of another person I see myself staring back and it's a feeling I can't shake, even if I wanted to. We are all the same species, we all share so much in common, we are composed of the same organic matter, we all have similar hopes and aspirations, we all share this little planet. I feel completely connected to everyone and everything and I see no reason why I should hide this fact, I'm not ashamed of it, I'm not too "manly" or "metal" to admit when I love and care about someone, and I have the balls to be totally honest with what I think, as I have been here. It's a shame so many people here feel the need to put on some lame facade of being "cool", something I equate with being a confused and insecure teenager.
The way he acts/thinks.... The way he is towards me, and the thoughts that he shares with me makes me
love him, not that he is a human being?
Then this is how you and I are different, and that's cool, it's our differences that make our species so interesting and varied. But I have to ask, would you still love him if he was making childish violent threats toward you? What about if he was making childish remarks about you being fat or geeky or ugly or whatever..? Could you look past his scary tough guy facade and love him simply because he is a person and for no other reason? I'm curious how you think about this because you have always seemed so damn sweet and kind.
You make him sound like he is some sort of stupid monkey or whatever, that you can just play with... Hehe....
hehe, yes, I certainly do!

But it's all in good humour. I've had a lot of fun at his expense, and I'll probably have much more, but I think he is grown up enough to handle it, even though his demeanor and way of dealing with conflict doesn't indicate this. I was nicer to him that perhaps I would've been because I thought he was only 14 years old or whatever, but he is 20, I think he can handle a little of what he puts out! hehe I think he is much smarter and much more mateur than he lets on with his hateful/violent blather. In all seriousness, if I thought he couldn't handle what I write then I wouldn't have the heart to have such fun with him as I have, I care too much about him for that. I can honestly say the same about every person on this planet too.
Oh well....
Go ahead; kill me with your words

Thanks for the offer, but why would I mock and condescend you? You are a sweety, I'm not the only one who thinks that either, and I have nothing but respect and admiration for you (and the fact that you are damn sexy doesn't hurt either, heheh
