Well said. To generalize this idea a bit more, I'd say the following: if you have nothing constructive to add to a dialog, say nothing. IMO, responding on impulse, especially when negative emotions are running high, increases the likelihood of people entrenching themselves in one-sided mindsets and managing their differences negatively.
That said, IMO, your post highlights a unique trait of self-discipline, which IMO, is an art-form in itself. One day, I'd like to be able to master this beautiful and fascinating art-form.
Thank you
Although, I feel somewhat bad calling someone a douche bag in my mind.Somewhat. lol
