bingo_a Yeah so I had a hilariously dumb argument on Twitter last night. These people who think they're Idk, super woke or whatever are super funny. Basically dude was like, I weed out people from my life by criticizing them and checking their reactions. Him (presumably) implying that people who can't take criticism are sociopaths. Which like, ok, that is one of many signs. But then I'm like, what happens if the person doesn't CARE about your criticism? Bc like, there are maybe a scant handful of people in my life whose criticism I actually care about, and they're all family members.
So then, like these ppl are wont to do, he introduces a straw man! Which was something like, well if I'm criticizing your outfit vs you beating your dog. This is a straw man bc honestly why would you even be remotely considering having someone in your life who beats their dog? Then he tried to say it wasn't a blanket statement but a generalization and I'm like, fucking DUDE, that's exactly what a blanket statement is. I was pretty much done with the convo at that point bc if you don't even know basic meanings for words I can't talk to you lmao.
As an INTJ, I have a variety of subtle tests to fit this purpose. One of them is me saying grossly exaggerated things designed to provoke an angry emotional reaction. If you give it to me, I cross you out as someone worth talking too. If you don't, then I'm like cool, you're not an emotional retard.
The other funny thing was a friend who likes Big Bang seeming kinda salty that I mentioned my liking for catmen, but didn't include BB members? Like, dude I really know very little about them aside from surface stuff and I further have no desire to find out. That's kinda how it works when you don't like a group lmao. That being said, the one I probably hate the least is GD and I've defended him a couple of times over stupid things. Namely the age gap relationship and that laundry tag thing. I really am not one of those ppl who, when they don't like someone, immediately hates everything they do. Or, conversely, if I like someone, I don't immediately support and love everything they do. Even if it's impossible to be 100% objective, I honestly strive for it.
Lol anyway, in Kpop things. I'm totally planning to get the War, but looking over their previous release patterns I feel like I should wait for the repackage. I mean, imagine missing out on Lotto for example. I'll be mad though if the extra songs are ballads or something though bc that's half why I love that album so much, only one real ballad on it. A 9 song album with only one ballad, like that is amazing.
