it never made sense to me. when you make fun of the mentally ill it is

1. evil because you are mocking someone with a disability and laughing at their suffering

2. it's also not a smart idea. you have no idea how they are going to react so it seems very stupid to openly mock them in front of them. it's like a darwin award situation

Children make fun of the mentally ill. I still want to have faith that most adults would realize how messed up it is.

that's irrational though. if I don't know something, either ignore what I say, or teach me. hating me for not knowing something is the wrong response.

you refuse to learn. you say stupid nonsensical shit like "harambe's killer is racist against gorillas"

stop hiding behind your obviously mild illness. it's probably aspergers or something. you're smart enough to know not to form opinions based on absolutely nothing

fuck

it's wrong to hunt game if you don't need to. if you at least eat it.....that it makes it not as bad, even though in most situations, you still don't need to do it because you can buy food. but sports hunting is wrong. it makes me sick when I see people, sometimes 12 year old girls, standing over corpses with a big grin

Okay. You're emotionally unstable and obnoxious but that's you, I get that.

That wasn't what he was commenting on, though. He pointed out that you say moronic things like being a deer hunter is racist against deers and in response to that accusation you went off writing a lifeblog about how you don't like hunting. Which has nothing to do with what you are responding to.

You always do this.

People always tell you that you do this.

You don't listen.

Then you blame your disorder.

Exactly. Correcting him is an exercise in futility because someone will do it and he will post the same shit at a different time even though people already pointed out how wrong he is then talk about how it's not his fault

Honestly he reminds of an episode of Family Guy where Peter just goes around doing whatever he wants and blaming his disability

He just reminds me of Chris Chan.

Honestly at this point I'm leaning towards that he doesn't even have a disability and he's just shitposting.

You lose this as a defense when you're corrected and still choose to repeat yourself.

Honestly, working in hospitals forces you to develop sick, twisted, macabre humor lest the place devour you yourself. You don't want to hear 90% of the shit we say during surgeries.

I brought up this point a long time ago when I was defending a girl who laughed about having to kill some dogs she couldn't take care of in some third world country, and CE of course jumped down my throat about it because.... dogs.... are so important and aren't killed daily out of necessity

"It's about survival!" They say...while being five minutes away from Walmart and everything else. I don't care if people ENJOY killing the wild animals they eat, just be honest about it.
