Humility? On the internet? Ahaha.

Oh god, you're serious. Let me laugh even harder!

AAAAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH

You also need to stop taking issue with tone and instead address arguments.

Tone is one of the few things that will get you banned on Bay12 other than displaying disgusting human behavior. So taking issue with tone is actually a 100% okay thing to do here. Talking in civil tones is literally the #1 most important thing.

This is me taking issue with your wording more than your follow up argument.

Humility? On the internet? Ahaha.

... no? Effective communication, or at least more effective. Humility has nothing in particular to do with it, s'about not sabotaging your own conversation.

[mainiac]

Could this effective communication be weaponized?

[Frumple]

It regularly is, more or less. Most of that kinda' thing I picked up from business classes. Martial power of the salaryman, y'ken? It crushes countries with the strength of the five steps of an apology. Or at least their economies, which amounts to the same thing.

I'm sad I didn't convert anybody with today's DA, I was really feeling that one.

[Shadowlord]

What's a DA?

[Willfor]

What's a DA?

A District Attorney is a lawyer who advocates on behalf of the state.

This is MetalSlimeHunt being a district attorney.

I know that a few months after I saw a few of Truean's posts I was talking with a cousin of mine about something or other, she said I should become a lawyer. I just nodded my head. But inside, inside I was thinking, "No. Fuck no. Not in a million years, no."

[Shadowlord]

Oh yes, I read that. It was all very fine and sounded quite reasonable. The problem is that Congress is more or less broken thanks to House Republicans whose districts have been gerrymandered so well that many of the moderate ones got replaced by nutjobs, n'est-ce pas?

In Trump Quotes News:
"We're like a big, big sloppy bully that gets punched in the face and goes down. You ever see a bully get knocked out? It's a terrible thing unless you're doing the punching -- then it's OK." - Donald Trump
I'm not sure whether that's deep or stupid.

I'm not sure whether that's deep or stupid.

It's so deep it's stupid, so stupid it's deep.

I started off hating Trump but the anti-Trump circlejerk is so strong that I've actually started to like him. He's got a lot of really good points, even if they are embedded in a buffoonery cake.

[nenjin]

His really good points seem to amount to "no shit" concepts. "It's better to be the one punching than the one getting punched."

"We're like a big, big sloppy bully that gets punched in the face and goes down. You ever see a bully get knocked out? It's a terrible thing unless you're doing the punching -- then it's OK." - Donald Trump

We finally have the answer to the age old question of "how would Trump play it if he accidentally called his girlfriend fat?"

Oh shit I just told her not to eat Oreo's, gotta keep talking... We aren't eating Oreo's.  Yeah that'll do it it's not just her, both of us aren't eating Oreo's anymore.  Crap... now I really want some Oreo's.
