"Negative" same word used by religious people when you tell them there is no afterlife.
Such hostility. In both of your posts. Quote: "I hate that word". Quote: " I hate this attitude". Quote: " I do hate celebrities like musicians and sports stars and politicians saying "you can do it"". Quote: I really don't give one fuck what your definition of "success is".".
These are your words and ideas, not mine. I merely used the word success. You're the one making assumptions/projections, not I. You didn't even ask what my idea of success was before you went on a minor rant. You don't find your words negative? What in either of my posts made you think "I am under no obligation to live my life the way you think I should.". When did I even come close to suggesting anything about your life?
Yea tell my why I should not be hostile to such a judgmental and condescending remark? Now you are back peddling.
Your words not mine "Wow. Sounds like this word has definite negative connotations for you. Sorry."
Exactly what negative connotations? If anyone is protecting and passing judgment it is you. My comments on your original post was only the statement that there is no script to life, and the only time I get judgmental is when people look down on others. It is also not negative to state the odds, that does not make one negative, it makes them realistic. It is also true that most people manage to survive the best they can, some have it better than others.
"Sorry" what the fuck does that mean? I'm not sad about my life, if you want me to be too bad, but I am not. Yea condescending remarks do make me hostile. You sound exactly like a theist "I feel sorry for you because you don't believe in god".
