Things that turn me off, and/or annoy me

Good to see you JJTP. New meat?

Thank you Nikola.

I was on board with OP at the outset of this thread. I, too, have encountered difficulties dealing with models who demanded exorbitant sums to sate my desires (though it should be noted that I am more of a flared nostril fan than a raised eyebrow degenerate).

Unfortunately, he really lost me when he began to drag Early Modern English into this in a failed bid to make his case. It reminded me of endless summer vacations, when I was forced to sit and read Shakespeare and the King James Bible aloud for hours on end b'neath the cruel gaze of my mother, who stood over me with a cane lest a mispronounced syllable escape my lips. I find OP's lack of a trigger warning before the word "hence" offensive, inexcuseable, and indicative of a lack of respect for those he was trying to reach with his message.

My prediction? OP's revolution will fail, his cause will wither, and he will slink off into history a laughingstock simply because he lacked the tact and necessary charisma to reach the masses on whom his success depended.

This one is on the house @Kultivater ...

"I am right or you are stupid!"

If an ENTIRE thread of people mixed of both members and models are saying "hey dude, that makes you seem shitty" maybe... just maybe... they have a point?
If you are coming across a certain way to just about everyone then the only constant is you. Only a narcissist would be in such denial.

I always think it's weird when someone gets mad at a group of people for perceiving them in a way they don't like. Surely an intellectual would be able to self-assess and make sure they're communicating in a way that is faithful to themself?

More times than not have I come across the wrong way, and with feedback I have learned a lot about the way others perceive me and it helps me learn how to better communicate. I don't understand why some people are completely incapable of looking in the mirror? It's not like you have to be this way if you don't like it, or that you're a terrible person if you change for the better.

Avoid having your ego so close to your position that when your position falls, your ego goes with it.
