why is it when someone doesn't agree with someone else they automatically throw the "jealousy" card out there? Really? So, everyone's jealous of everyone? It can't just be that we agree to disagree, we are all just jealous. I personally think this is a flimsy, accusatory statement to just *throw around* all of the time.

Get over it. Agree to disagree and move on. Debate maturely, without accusation and namecalling.



Rant over. *returns soapbox*

    I disagree with your entire statement because I am jealous that you look hot and will be participating in Fitness Texas this weekend!

    You know I totally agree with everything you said!

    Love this! I agree! It's just a typical ignorant response because they can't think of anything else to say.

    You CAN disagree with someone without being jealous or a hater (this word is Waaaayyyyy overblown). There are some people you just will never please!

    I yearn for the days adults can respectfully disagree with one another and it doesn't turn into a 3rd grade hair pulling contest....






    I need to get over it....

    Here's a factoid from being a psychology student for 14 years:

    People will look to resolve any conflict that they can with the easiest method at their disposal. What does "you're just jealous" give exactly? Well it basically states that my opinion is superior to yours and that you are only arguing because you want to be like me, further reinforcing my superiority in the argument. It is, in a nutshell, an "I WIN" button that I can push whenever I don't have a proper counter-argument, similar to "NUH UH" and "UH HUH" and "NA NA NA NA IM NOT LISTENING", only "you're just jealous" takes those previous items and boosts my own ego further by stating that you just want to be like me anyway.

    People are an arrogant, narcissistic and ego-centric bunch of protein sacks.

    I saw that being thrown out once.. and my reply was, jealous of what.. that said poster has no clue what they are talking about? The person who threw it out goes, but I was kidding when I said it.. I'm not actually implying that your all jealous of said poster.. Then why say it in the first place? :huh:
