If you say something publicly, be prepared to be called out publicly. Not really rocket science.
This is the forum it was posted in, so this is the forum I will reply in.
I can post whatever I would like, where ever I would like. And I refuse to just let someone say something that ignorant and disgusting and not call them on it.
Quite frankly it makes me wonder why you are so adamant on defending someone's right to be a racist scumbag.
Because it is his right. Just because it pisses you off doesn't make it not his right. Rights are not based on your personal belief system.
Hm, interesting....
It is also my right to call him out on it.
Anywhere other than the "no judgement" thread.
No judgement does not make racism ok. I thought we already went over that.
Why are you so ok with racism?
I'm not. I'm OK with "no judgement" and keeping this 1844 page thread running, without someone getting their panties in a wad and getting it closed down.
Funny, that bolded part. As this had nothing to do with you, until you decided to make it about you.
In fact, you were the only one to say something about it. So, who is trying to get the thread closed down? Cuz from here, it looks like you.
You know, I kept my mouth shut in the Batcave when you went off about KylerJaye's thing and caused such a brouhaha that people left. I didn't agree with you then, either. We are obviously never going to see eye-to-eye. I'm done. Judge away.
wait, you mean when others were so quick to judge my apology as being insincere and called me a bigot?
then those same whiny *kitten* (turn into kittens, turn into kittens) flounced right the *kitten* off...because you know, that's what friends do, jump ship when the waves get a bit rocky....but then expect to interact with the same ppl in the OT because you know....it's not The Same Thing (well, with less fun pics...).
is that the brouhaha you're referencing? just wanted to make sure i'm looking to the correct interactions....
Nope. I was the first person to acknowledge your apology and accept it for what it was, if I remember correctly. And I'm not at all saying this is about you, KJ. It's the underlying refusal to accept any perspective except someone's own.6 -

This rubs me the wrong way and I'd like clarification about what you mean and why. I don't want to misunderstand your meaning unintentionally.
I don't like crowds, lines, or the general chaos that comes with a theme park, so I can definitely identify with not having a great time in that situation. It would be stressful and overwhelming to me, and I'd be exhausted.
What I don't understand is 1. How you classify someone as a "foreigner" (do you mean tourist? do you mean people who don't speak English well? do you mean people of color? do you mean people who aren't from the US?) or 2. Why you don't like them. Did something happen? Was there a language barrier that frustrated you?
This is an honest appeal for clarification by Bry Lander.
I do realize this is a "no judgment" zone. I don't think asking for clarification about someone's meaning is judgmental - in fact, I'm seeking the clarification in order to avoid such judgment.
Edit: Here's the thing though.... Confession: I really don't expect a response to this post. In my experience, people who say things that could be taken as inflammatory offhand rarely stick around to have a conversation about it. /shrug
Well said, @jthurman3. Especially the bolded.5 -

Mrs Smartie is very excited at the road trip plan.
The diner was pretty much hands down the best meal we had all trip, met all decor expectations of a diner and the food was delicious.
And while I might have decided that running was boring. I might be idly planning a training programme for more marathons...

Too bad you couldn't have been here longer. Broadway is all bar-hopping (and all tourists), but there is oh-so-much more to Nashville. I've found it to be an extremely active city, tons of stuff to do without even hitting a bar. It's been so hot here but managed to get some garbage weather just in time for y'all to show up.
Well we may be back next year and hopefully without a strike!3 -

Ironman Chattanooga this fall!
Roughly 4 hours from my house. I could do that. To cheer. I could not compete, I'd drown.
Cheering is good!2 -

I don't know about anyone else but I really don't want to dredge up old hurt feelings. Can we just drop the argument and move on. Please.5

I'm drinking a margarita. At work. At 4:15. On a Thursday.5

I sometimes add fake calories to avoid being judged by my MFPs, because I don't eat enough when I'm stressed2

Caramel popcorn... I sneak a couple of handfuls every other day -- so hard to break this one snack habit. I generally record more of something else in my food diary to make up the calories...
Starbucks - java chip frap no whip no drizzle - I have those every couple of days and do the same thing. I'm sooo addicted to that. Another bad "food" habit to break.0 -

Sounds like a great work day!I sometimes add fake calories to avoid being judged by my MFPs, because I don't eat enough when I'm stressed
Perhaps look at adding some calorie dense foods such as nuts, cheese or avocado, which have good nutrients and will add some cals.CatMarlett wrote: »Caramel popcorn...

If it fits your calories then have at it if you find its taking you over or it something you want to break, try stretching to every three days for a few weeks, then every four days. Rather than an all out ban that might make you crave it, make it fit as an occasional treat or reward 3 -
I decided to spend my lunch calories yesterday on Reese's cups. It was worth it.7

I personally don't care if they are foreign or not... Crowds suck!
