Anybody here watch south park? A little while back, they did an episode where they were just talking about islam and the idea of showing a picture of muhamed. As a result, they got death threats etc… and comedy central censored the hell out of it.
Being the raging anger-sack of frustration that I am, I would rant to anyone who would listen about how “if people don’t like something then they should just ignore it instead of trying to change those who have different values”.
Well, it’s just occurred to me that I’m not eating my own dog food. Every time that someone pulls a dick move on here (to me or to someone else) I completely take the bait and call them out on it. Why can’t I instead just ignore it and say “that is bullshit that is best just ignored by everyone”?
In effect, (and I’m talking at myself now), every time that I jump in and start raging about how people are dicks, I’m effectively making myself a hypocrite by not choosing to ignore that which I dislike or disapprove of.
tl;dr:
Every time I rant, I’m being a hypocrite. Do me a favor folks and call me out on that whenever I start raging at someone when it has nothing to do with me.

haha, and considering the quantity of dickery that abounds around here, this is the perfect training ground for me to work on ignoring shit that bugs me.
