I hope I wasn't one. I am one of the least intimidating people ever so I don't know why or how I give off this vibe
Absolutely you were.0 -

Don't let that stop you! Most of us are here to better our health in one way or another. The forums are just a nice distraction sometimes.1 -

Those people converse in the more serious threads, especially the debate section. Intellectually and educationally, I'm not cut from that cloth and I know it.
I think that's a good thing, to know your limits and not to think you're smarter and more knowledgeable than you are about specialized topics that require a lot of background study.
I will go over there and make fun of them though and impress them with my expertise in celebrity trivia and hairstyle fashions, so there's that.
You don't need a PHD. You just need a one-liner that can be interpreted as satire or serious, sarcastic or straight. . depending on who is reading it.
Yes, exactly. I'm almost certain that most people here are of far superior intelligence than I. I heavily use spell and grammar check, even that doesn't always help. Also I am from the South where ya'll, ain't, yonder, fixin, reckon and many more are common language. Plus nothing has an "ing" on it and sometimes we even add "a" or "er" to words that don't have them.
Either way, I try to have fun on here and for the most part I'm happy as a pig in mud. (not one of my usual's but for the sake of this post)3 -

Yeah, I really don't discuss call specifics outside of anyone that was on the call or need to know. Then, once they're documented and closed, I tend to forget them unless something very specific stands out.

Just sayin'
DISCLOSURE: I teach Combatives, Defensive Tactics, and Personal Protection
Sorry physical confrontation is easier to deal with that social rejection
This is an opinion and not fact. Times have changed a lot over the years that may make what you say true for many.....but believe me my friend, intimidation from where I grew up was physically and mentally excruciating. Social rejection comes in many forms, and cyber intimidation is something i never had to deal with but do see it so i wont discount it. But having the big kids jack you up to sell drugs for them because you are to young to do time is pretty traumatic physical intimidation. That and other things like that happen to kids and even some adults to this day in neighborhoods where I work with the kids. It's never just one way when it comes to what's worse when it comes to these type of things.4 -

Bacon was such a sweet boy. :sad:
He really is. He had a way of including everyone and didn't fall into popularity contests. I hope he comes back

I’m with @kinetixtrainer2 in that “most of my FL was intimidating to me when I was new” feeling - and yes, you’re included in that, as is he. That said, I was very pleasantly surprised at how warm and welcoming and non-cliqueish people were when I decided that the only way to get over feeling intimidated by you beautiful people was to jump right in and start posting in the threads that intimidated me most. It still took a while but I’m finally feeling comfortable and no longer intimidated by anyone here. (OK, maybe slightly so sometimes because @SabAteNine can take selfies that are a work of art and my attempts at recreating them have so far been really pathetic.)Clever_User_Name wrote: »JustKeepTryin wrote: »Will_Workout_for_food wrote: »LaDispute57 wrote: »caco_ethes wrote: »Who here is or was intimidated by @kinetixtrainer2 ?

You’re someone who is easy to spot as being hilarious and well-loved here. Sample size of 1 here, but I thought you were pretty intimidating until I got to know you because it seems nearly impossible to match your ability to post just the right funny comment at any given moment.2 -
When I speak of intimidation in this thread it’s not from a physical or mental place of fear. In my case it’s where I read the posts of someone and start to paint a mental picture of someone’s personality and their attributes. I enjoy reading their thoughts and sense of humor. Then the thought of sending a friend request was intimidating because there’s the chance of rejection from someone you’ve come to like.
Hope this makes sense.8
