i feel all warm and fuzzy from you guy's like. Seriously though, i am here to have conversations and arguments, you know, a series of logically interconnected statements, designed to prove a point.
There is this notion that seems to be pervading american culture in the young right now, that if someone doesn't agree with your opinion that they don't like you. This is crap. I don't care if you agree with me, but if you don't, tell me and tell me why and expect me to answer your concerns with more thoughts, maybe we will change each others minds. It is like the hegelian dialectic of conversation: Thesis -> antithesis -> synthesis.
So in conclusion: Screw your approval, i don"t need it! (but thank you).
pure gold!
