    On another message board I'm on, vague posts just for attention.

    "All I've got today is, sigh..." "It's hard to be me." Etc. Followed by responses of, "Oh no, what's wrong?" "Are you ok?" How about just say something in the first place?

    I don't know why that irks me, but it does.

    Rude people online are irking me today. Esp keyboard warriors who are so inhuman on online forums. Like.. is it so hard to just be civil? So then I have to decide.. do I just let it go?

    IMO it's usually best for my emotional wellbeing to let it go but YMMV ❤️

    This is probably the way to not waste my emotional time. Thanks!

    Recovery woes from a major surgery. I want to do stuff, but am not allowed to.

    As hard as it is now, take time to recover fully! It will be worth it in the end. Hope you feel better soon!

    I was in a car accident six months ago.
    I’m just getting to the point where grocery shopping doesn’t kick my (kitten)

    These things take forever…

    Someone makes some random claim about a news report on an online forum.

    Me. “I sure would love to see that! Have you got more information?”

    Them: “Rude. Condescending. Google it yourself!”

    Sigh

    1) Google results are not the same for everyone. The results are filtered by what you have previously searched for, and other algorithmic data.

    2) That’s not how polite conversation works.
    You made a claim. Either share more information if you have it, or just say you don’t remember where you saw it.
    No need call the person asking for more information names.

    Super super super not helpful.

    Alternatively, you could've clarified your intentions.

    Or the responder could have not assumed I was being rude and just said they didn’t have the information at hand.
