Y'know, I never heard a saint talking about all the good they've done.
...so I'm being an asshole?
Not at all. You are sharing a touching story. Spreading positivity is a good thing, even if I can be a negative person at times.
Am I in the wrong for sharing this though? Your usually very blunt, honest and to the point so I know you'll be frank with me.
It's a pre-concieved view of things. Ever look at somebody's writing, and just get a really strong feeling that you think you know what the other person was feeling when they wrote it. An air of smugness or the like?
Maybe when other folks read what you right, that's what they get. A pre-concieved air of smugness. It might not actually be true, but sometimes, words from certain people have that air to them, and you just get the wrong vibes is all.
This makes sense. I mean, I still have my reasons for getting these feelings, but I know he isn't intentionally trying to give them off.
So, if you know he's not doing it intentionally, why cause something intentionally? That's not cool. It would be like me going around and beating the shit out of every person I see because I didn't like the look on their face in the morning when they stepped into my restaurant.
Fuck, I talked about this the other day with somebody. Negativity and Positivity feed each other. Put a negative person next to a negative person, and they'll feed each other, spiraling downwards together.
Likewise, do it with positive people, and they'll pick each other up.
A strong enough positive person will alter a negative person, as likewise, a strong enough negative person will bring a positive person down.
So, if you know he's not doing it intentionally, but you attack, or make a fuss about things anyway, then you're caught in the negative trap. Emotional state, overpowers your logical side.
Use your noggin compatriot.
Well for one, I prefer to act on emotion more than logic.
But most of the time I say nothing. I make my quips once in a while, but not often. I can't be entirely sure if he's completely innocent or not. But it's because of the fact that some people just don't learn time after time. It's ignorance I can't stand. It's always this about his life and that about his life, and their's clearly backlash, but nothing changes. I just always get an air of condescendence from the way he speaks. And what irks me about it is that it is unintentional. Like things he says are normal.
We get it, he has a good life. Do we know about the bad? No. But the way he makes himself to be is, more or less the way I see it, that he's better than us. Obviously other people don't see it or don't care, but coming from the opposite end of the spectrum of life, it get's old.
I'm not trying to sound mean, but I don't know how else to say things. And I'm not about to edit and revise what I'm trying to say on a Tuesday night when I have math due at midnight.
I genuinely don't think I'm better then anyone. If I come across that way then maybe I am at fault. Sorry you get that vibe.
Okay.
This is going to take a lot from me, but.. I'm sorry.
It's fine, honestly, don't worry about it. I was never mad, nor did I ever feel negative about you. You weren't wrong in how you felt, and you were honest so I can't mark you down. I understand where your coming from when you say what you say. But thank you.

Mazda Miata from the mid 90s.
This is your answer.
That being said, if you can find an S2K in that price range, get it immediately. It fits exalted what you want.
He can find a VW Jetta in that range as well.
I'd still choose a Miata or S2K over it

Your probably right in all honesty. :/
It's not a fault of yours however. It's just a tricky state to balance is all. Our pre-concieved views can be damn hard to break. Even if you changed your writing, the people who don't enjoy your company here, would still have that air of smuggness bleed through in their eyes.
As I said to casper, emotions, positive and negative feed each other. And, it seems that at the moment, folk's emotions have the upper hand over logic, and so they act and attack that pre-concieved smugness. Not your fault. We just need a little more sunshine in the place is all.
You can't really blame Casper. What he's saying is true. At first I always came across the wrong way, and I understand why he thinks and feels as he does. He's not being unreasonable. But I still try and mend things with him.
Casper isn't inconsiderate or anything like that, he's actually fairly reasonable.
And so am I. But the point is, when your emotional state is out of balance, it ovverrides your reason and logical thought processes. And, as Noelle said, as of late, this place is somewhat of a downer. Multiple people, negative people, are sapping things. Even them, it's not their fault. Because that's what emotions do by nature.
I try to remain as calm and clear headed as I can. But, if and when I'm angry, all of that goes out the window. So, the point is, to try and not let your emotions dictate who you are, and let your head dictate the emotions that make sense.
Like I said, Casp is stuck in the trap. She, he, or they, know that you don't mean to sound smug. And yet they started something anyway. They let that emotion, that need to attack drive them forwards even though they knew you didn't mean anything bad by it.
It all comes down to the simple fact, that this place could use a little more sunshine.
Have you ever considered being a councilor?

Sorry I guess
Don't take it to heart compatriot. You know where you stand clear as day on the subject, and you know that you did something nice. All that counts in the end is the knowledge that you've done something. This place, as of late, is in a bit of a slum. A down moment if you will. You can't blame folks. A lot of bad seems to be happening over good.
And, after a while, folks become cynical. Doubtful. Which is why, you can only really take heart in yourself. Only you know what you did and the reasons you did it for. Be proud of that, and don't let the doubts of others plague you.
This is why I like you. Your reasonable, and your neutral.
Thank you.
How's the house coming along?
Not neutral, no. I just try to dump myself in other shoes. Points of view from another's eyes change everything. I have my flaws, my mistakes and statements that upset people, things that people disagree with. The best I can do is flip the perspective away from my own eyes. through that, you gain a little bit of understanding. Through understanding, you don't get so angry at people. You don't feel the need to cause issues and raise more troubles when you can see a piece of what's on the end of somebody else's world.
House won't be started for at least 8 months. Winter is here now. The snow and ice will close things up soon.
Fair enough.
And damn, how cold does it get up there?
Last year one of our cities hit the coldest it ever was in 40 years. -60 with the windchill. Converted into american measurments, it was -85F.
The coldest I have ever experienced, was probably...39F, in Florida.
Wow that's rough, I assume you can never get used to that. Where you live is beautiful, I've seen the pictures. Would you ever consider moving somewhere else?
I was running out and about on one of those days. The cold runs in my veins. I enjoy it. Have a higher tolerance for it than most others.
Moving? No. As I've said before, it's not as glamorous as other parts of the world, with flashy architecture or vibrant culture. But it is peaceful. This place is not a target. It's too inhospitable to invade or conquer, with little in the way of anything valuable. And so I would never trade it.
You know, I genuinely respect that. A lot actually.

Tbh, I've been trying to fix my posts and all so I could get you to stop feeling that way. It makes me feel like a dick if I'm somehow coming across as one. Because I feel like me not understanding it makes me look ignorant and arrogant.

There are no saints. Everybody has baggage. Everybody has a bad side. The reason you've never heard them speak about it, is because they're a myth. A saint is not some holier than thou person. We are all flawed. But that doesn't change the fact people have the capability in them to do something special for others, even if it's small.
I'm not saying what he did wasn't good. It's always nice to do something for other people. But just like people don't like hearing about all the bad things in someone's life, doesn't mean people want to hear about all the good either. You did something good? Hey great! It feels nice to do something for others out of kindness, but don't go around looking for recognition and acceptance of what you did. That's petty. Just know that what you did made someone happy and that should be good enough.
What's the point of being in a community where everything you share has you branded has someone who is conceited.
Somehow, everything I say gets completely turned around.
Maybe you are just an asshole?

Well, folks always read my big walls of shit, so the least I can do is read yours. It's a good thing. We often forget how much of a difference some of the little things can make.
Sometimes, you don't have to move a mountain for somebody. All you have to do is make them smile. One little bright spot on a bad day. I know the feeling well. Tossing in some spare bucks in my pocket for folks who are short. Help when I see that they need a hand. A comment, that let's them know that I know, and that they aren't alone.
Our impacts, don't have to be massive to be world changing and life changing. Because of all the memories I remember, it's the small ones. The smiles from strangers I received on bad days. The comments, and the eyes of people you look at, and you know, that they can see that you need something, you need help. A leg up. One singular moment to spark one last light for you, something to hang onto no matter how lost you seem.
Remember that. You don't have to be god to change somebody's life around. You don't have to have millions at your disposal. Just the simple will to help, even if it's as something as small as a handshake, for somebody who feels like they have nothing left.
Everything just came together perfectly. It was so amazing. I honestly expected to say hi, hopefully get him to smile while we were talking (which I did) and say bye and go home. It was just perfect. And I wanted to make his dream come true. Plus, I live very close by so it was a 5 minutes drive to and from
