What has CC taught you!

Ok here is the ad...its no longer sold so I am not advertising anything.

I have learned some people will do almost anything to make themselves feel more intelligent, more correct or just better than somebody else.

I have also learned that it doesn't matter how you feel. All that matters is that I prove I'm right and you're wrong. Or something like that. Man I hate it when BDF leaks into the nice forums.



"Wait... aren't you using the same tactic to make yourself seem superior to me?"

"Sorry, that trick expires after one use per conversation."

I've learned not to venture out of the singles forum.

Along with that I've learned that there are some "Christians" that explain negative opinions of Christians.

I've learned to quit beating my head against the wall with people who can't hold a good discussion and don't really care about the topic being discussed as much as how they appear to everyone else.

And I hope I've learned not to ridicule others in order to gain popularity points.

I've learned that most issues have way more nuances and complexities than politicians and journalists would have us believe.

And I've also met a few really awesome people who've been a great support and encouragement by being part of my otherwise alone life.

In my country it is Colour also.. But the spell checkers are all set on US English.. It is a conspiracy i tells ya

*SIDE NOTES*

My husband wonders why my spelling is bad.......
I'm a military kid.......
we lived in different parts of the world while learning this stuff

NO.......
Mr. Rogers says it like this "NEIGHBOR"

And HE wouldn't mislead children now right?

But to get back on track here:
Another thing I have learned on CC is that no matter what time of day it is (wherever you are in the world), there is always someone here waiting to engage in conversation, encourage you or make you laugh. And if it's a rare time that not much is going on, well at least you can leave your comment and someone will get back to you,and sometimes, when life stinks, simply just typing it out helps.

It's just american efficiency, we're eliminating the redundant letter.

I learnt Robop is a real person, not a programme algorithm, also not related to Robo Cop!

And speaking of RoboOP and RoboCop.........
I've also learned that maybe I'm spending to much time here on CC ( NAAAAA) when someone (here in real time, real life off the computer) says something about the movie RoboCop and I start thinking
"I wonder how RoboOP is today".....

Ive learned helping others is a blessing to a broken heart on the mend.

They have tried to teach me the earth is flat but I'm not quite in believing mode yet not just there.... As if the earth were flat cats would have knocked everything off it by now....

HAHA! I was JUST looking for that pic. you beat me to it.

I learned how to make people feel guilty about anything, no matter how mundane, trivial or innocuous the topic. If it's food I can call you a glutton. if it's something you like I can point out there are people who don't have it. If it's something you hate I can point out how it is actually a good thing, or how much worse other people's lives are, or both!

Don’t you feel guilty about that! Lol

Lol, good question. I felt bad for liking it, hahaha.

Nope, not a bit. I feel all self-righteous and vindicated and proven correct and all that good stuff. That's the whole point!

I have learned that there are some very kind people here that I care for and that care for me as well. Friends come in all ages, shapes and sizes.

I have learned what a straw man is.
