You're putting words in my mouth and then attacking me. I thought this place was supposed to be friendly. That's my bad.

No one has asked me to further clarify. They've simply made assumptions based off of bits and pieces of what I've said to form the conclusion that best suits your wishful thinking.

On another note. I'm totally destroyed that you guys are acting the way you are. You aren't seperating personal experience and emotions from logical thinking. You're simply attacking, insulting and assuming. And I think the worst part is, if the experience I've had on this thread just now has taught me anything: it's that no one on here is smart, kind, compassionate, inbiased and emotionally stable enough to have this conversation.

I would love it for someone to prove me wrong. Please, someone else here step up and prove you understand what I'm syaing because so far no one that has engaged me understand any of the points I'm trying to make.

Clarify where I've misunderstood you on my post and I will do my best to alleviate. I'll hold my tongue until then.

Would you mind telling us what we're supposed to draw from what you've said, then?

And while you're doing that, could you tell us why you're so important to us, stranger on the internet, that we simply must go to the effort of misrepresenting your position just to talk to you?

Or we could be genuinely mistaken, did you consider that? It's entirely possible we just didn't take your meaning through some lack of clarity on your part, or some other thing. Why you gotta go poisoning the well and passing out these passive aggressive insults before you know what's actually going on?

So clarify. But bear in mind that we're not exactly going to react favorably to "nobody here is smart."

I've just ruined my reputation because I went without sleep and was running off of caffeine. You guys got the butt of it because by the time I started posting my caffeine was wearing off. Leaving me irritable and reminded of everything in my life sucks. This lead me to getting overly detached and lashing out at everyone. I should probably mention that I'm borderline scizo. That may help ya'll understand me a bit more.

Either way. Ya'll misunderstood me and I lashed out because of my (temporary) emotional detachment. Sorry about that.

I no longer care. I'm too stupid to argue with anyone here because I was ill equipped to enter the world as an adult since my parents magical thinking has disabled me. I'm not that smart. If at all. So I'm giving up. I obviously can't win this and it'll only make me look like more of an ass to try. I'm not going to sit here and pretend that I'm smart so I can do a little dance and pat myself on the back for 'trying'.

No one says you have to be smart. There are some very smart people here and some idiots too. Most of us fall somewhere in between. It is best when people are just straightforward and try and say what they mean in the simplest way possible.

Obviously that's the best form of communication. I happen to fail at that daily, however. Don't worry about it. I'll try and do better here.

Come on, man. You think you're the only person to have their personal development retarded by religious parents?

Like là bạn điên said, nobody here is saying you have to be 'smart'. Hell just because we disagree with you doesn't mean you're necessarily wrong. Indeed, you've articulated your points pretty well.

Being on a forum like this is as much about taking the flack as it is about massaging one's ego. Stick with it, maybe you'll learn something, maybe we will.
