Especially if it's online. In person, you might have a small chance, but online, eh, forget it.

Would you:

A) Tell them to **** off (my personal favorite)
B) Smoke one or shut up (second personal Fav)
c) I'm sorry sir, try an A. Fuente Sun Grown instead
D) Hide in the corner

I think we're on the same page here. I just felt like my reaction could have gone 2 ways and I was split on which way it should have gone.

As it pertains to what I do, that's better left for another post.

Best Regards,

I think this is not so black and whit a situation, I would love to hear more about what is actually going on. Would be happy to take it to pm if you would like. There are a lot of times where it is not just take it or leave it but a smarter more effective third option.

tried it and proven those kind of people with hard evidence. In the end they are close minded and will not accept anything from what they think. the only thing that should really matter to you at the end of the day is that you have met the standards you have set for yourself.

The first thing I thought was I quote I heard and really like 'kill em all, let God sort them out'. Then I realized this is counter productive in this situation. I try to let certain things just roll of my back, you can't please everyone all the time. But that being said, part of me likes to educate people and plead my case.
In short, I'm of no help whatsoever.
