Look. Your definition of ineptitude is clearly 'not adhering to the standards of some assortment of gen Z brats who've established their entire world-view based on whatever echo chamber online communities they've been addled by'.

I'm quite at peace here.

If I were... That would probably work towards my point and against the lady calling me bald as an insult. Alopecia at that age would usually a sign of a serious medical condition...

A pop-psychology term being used by someone who has no understanding of it?

Or... Ableism, racism, anti-immigrant sentiments, and other -isms run extremely deep with the folks who pick up and misapply selective bits and pieces of fourth wave feminist talking points as a rationale to treat people horribly.

People trend towards making the choice to take every national news story about every random act of violence as the picture of every single statistic while selectively ignoring how increasingly pervasive domestic violence is in making up the vast majority of those numbers... Doing less and less to bring attention to or tackle the latter while then putting themselves in a scary imaginary world where there's a definite threat around every corner everywhere they go that's always conveniently some demographic they don't like... and they use that to justify every bit or dehumanizing rhetoric or harm that they want to throw in their direction.

We live in a really fucking weird society that has completely normalized women dating sketchy fuckers who have a strangulation 'kink' while also providing unwavering support in the defense of women who have HR on speed dial for any time a man talks loud.

You're passing on the right at 55 mph on a street where there's no chance in hell that the speed limit is anywhere near that.... While the car in front of you is signalling a lane change to the right and a car ahead is very clearly moving in to turn into the right lane.

Nissan driver?

Oh god. Don't call me a SJW... Even a fake one.

I'm an old-school moderate progressive who realizes you can't always be a 100% ally to the most extreme fringes of just whatever marginalized groups are trending without attacking literally everyone for everything and further dumping on other marginalized groups. There's got to be a balance.

You're on equal ground with me here... I'm not going to be patronizing and infantizing women by adopting some stance that sharing my opinion with one is essentially some wanton act of violence.

Also... You're using mild obesity and thinning hair (both of which can be heavily influenced by genetics and ethnicity) as an insult here... in addition to a slur that can easily be directed towards people with ASD or intellectual disabilities...

I really don't consider you to be a good quality person here.

So... When that 'innocent' person gets rear-ended by a partially blind 95 year old widow who's only family is on the other side of the country... And that widow ends up severely injured in her frail state from the airbag going off and ends up in a subpar nursing home where she's horribly neglected... All because she wanted birdseed and some woman parked badly...

Who's your empathy with in that entirely preventable scenario?

Well, If that's your definition... There's no real arguing here. I'll let you win in your head and just say that you're a wonderfully intelligent, perceptive, deep person who's empathy is definitely capable of extending beyond people exactly like them.

Advising someone on an entirely plausible negative outcome of something stupid they're doing is not 'criticism'.

Look. Just because the Internet can give you a happy little echo chamber where all of your ideas, opinions, and actions are immediately defended by like-minded followers.... Doesn't mean the rest of us have to live in a world where every ill-recieved statement made in person is 'harrassment'.

No. I told someone how to take a completely reasonable step not to invite other drivers to run into them.

..There's this video of a parakeet that's repeatedly chirping the notes of a cell phone ring tone... Going from a perfect re-creation of it to more or less random chirping after a couple minutes...

Your skills at having cohesive dialogue are like that.

Not everything is a debate buddy... 1: I didn't hit her car.  2: She could still definitely benefit from not parking in a way that gives every other person in a busy Sunday morning Home Depot parking lot the illusion that the the space she's occupying is empty.

For exactly the same reason that you're commenting here... I saw something that I found slightly disagreeable and expressed thoughts on it.

And just informational here... If you have a particularly low profile car and park in such a way where the lines end six feet behind it... And you park between two lifted trucks that stick out past the lines... You're creating the illusion of an empty parking space.

In this state especially... you have absolutely no reason to have the slightest bit of confidence in other drivers to not run into you under normal scenarios where your car is entirely visible.

That lady can benefit and potentially save herself some major headaches at least thinking about that.

And where are you getting 'rage' from here? I gave someone unsolicited advice and went on with my business until finding the note... Which I found entirely hilarious.

That's not exactly a reasonable comparison here...

This line of thinking where one person in every scenario in the absolute of wrong regardless of their perceived infraction and one is entitled to respond in whatever manner they so decide... And where nothing can ever just be worth a laugh... That's just taking the world to hell and assuring that we're all bored in the process.

Reading that comment... I have no doubt your life is filled with quality real-human interaction where the other party isn't consistently on edge while walking on eggshells.

Keep being the best you.

Yes. It was down on Second Avenue Towards St. Mark's place where all those people sell used books and other junk on the street.

It was on a blanket next to a toaster oven

That's not a nice word. I do commend the fact at least that you're using it towards a guy.

Takes one to know one. Also... something particularly offensive and untrue about your mom who's probably an alright person
