You made some very good points there, especially when you used shooting somebody in the leg as a metaphor. Its not impossible at all to get a disagreeing point across to somebody without using any insult, but people just want excuses to do it and get away with it. I use to be part of a forum where they always defended these actions with "you just cant take having your views challanged and contested"....ermm yes we can, when personal attacks arnt part of it

Something I just seem to notice is if somebody attempts to criticize somebody and there is an insult in there criticism, the thing that seems to stick out a good portion of the time is the insult, and people seem to only pay attention to the insult or focus on it the most and completely ignore the rest of criticism and point that was presented.

Like if I say "hey you might need a new car because your current car is very old you stupid assturd". The thing that will stick out the most is probably stupid assturd, and the person will probably feel insulted and only think that person is out to insult them and make them feel bad rather then considering getting a new car because there current car is old and dying. Had the person left out the stupid assturd insult the guy with the car might have focused more on the advice of getting a new car.

Well done Jared! Anyone of any age can either criticize or insult others. I've had my fair share of temper tantrums as well as anybody else. I even know that even if it's really constructive criticism, some people would still feel insulted and take it personally.

yeah I admit I could do better with taking constructive criticism as well, sometimes i take it the wrong way especially when it comes to lifting, I was thinking of making a similar rant to this only it revolves around weightlifting criticism.

well said, there is a big different between criticism and bashing. One is to give info how to improve something while the other is just to insult something.

[Jerichosquink]

Exactly, sometimes people are driven to the points of extreme anger, thats how humans are, we get mad, we get sad, we get happy, its only human nature to lose it eventually.

Best you can do is learn from it and try to do better. Life is about learning.

@Jerichosquink i agree noone should expect perfection. we can only try our best because what else is there if we tried our best
