You people are sooooo mean!

You guys are far too frustrating and incredibly SLOW.... you are the weakest links. Goodbye

Your definition of abuse would mean that at my job we do nothing but abuse each other day in and day out. Being verbally critical of other adults stated claims is not abuse, its my job and the job of my co-workers.

I've made comments about this before. I'd be interested in getting some numbers on the "mean" people versus unicorn sunshine people and their professional and academic backgrounds.

Science is 100% mean people by this definition. Pretty much all we do is sit in rooms where people are trying to give their ideas about how something works and when they are done talking we just criticize the hell out of whatever it was they said. Then later you stand up and justify your interpretation of the results and then they all have the audacity to verbally critisize you....and in public no less. The audacity.

Scientists are total *ssholes

This was my thinking, as a fellow scientist

ETA: and I've been loving your posts in this thread. I do mostly behavioral work, but still.

Stop. It's not really funny anymore. I get it, you don't agree with what she said. It's enough.

I disagreed with her first post. I'm disgusted and offended by the rest.

You should be, you are one of my targets. Not to mention the confusion I feel over YOU being offended and disgusted.

In for more sadness.

I suppose I will never understand the emotional response some people give to criticism on an internet forum, likely because that response was beat out of me by my training long long ago.

Does stay at home mom studding Econ count?

Only if you are an *sshole too ;-)

I kinda can't believe the first part of the thread got poofed, and the roll is still here.

So, really it's only the die-hards that are still here?
