Well my day was splendid · 1:48am Dec 6th, 2012
Let's see what happened shall we? I got into a fight with my best friend and then I got kicked out of band class for not having my mute and flicking him off. Yep, I'm just a huge bundle of joy. But in all seriousness, I get pissed when people try to tell me my way is wrong. My friend tried telling me that saying the word "retard" is rude and terrible because her brother is mentally challenged. I love her brother. He's awesome and we are good friends. Her on the other hand, doesn't know what she's talking about. I believe that saying the word "retard" is totally fine. How can the mentally challenged feel normal if you don't treat them he same and instead treat them like babies? This doesn't mean I discredit you that you believe the word "retard" is wrong. Just don't tell me that what I say is wrong. Is that too hard for people to realize? Opinions are what makes a person unique. It's like religion. I don't say yours is wrong, but don't say mine is. This is a lesson I need other's to see (wow this shit should actually be on MLP). Really, we should all learn to respect each other's opinions. Is that so hard?
nope
nope
Respect other people's opinions... I was taught that as a kid, I think everyone was, but do they remember it now? No, of course not. I was taught to respect opinions and choices, shouldn't everyone? I try to, I hope others do as well. It's a fairly simple concept, I'm pretty sure we can all handle it.
I'm sorry, I'm that person again. You can imagine this in Rarity's voice, if it helps it go down more smoothly.
However, as a rule of thumb, if you are in a normal social situation, and say something, and someone says it offends them, the correct answer is "Oh, sorry. I didn't know." That's just good manners. (For the record: Good manners are about making people around you feel comfortable. They are not about: The truth, what you really think, the correct way for the world to be, political opinion, religion, creativity, or making yourself comfortable. Remember, all brides are beautiful and all babies are cute, even if they're hideous.)
(Also for the record: There are places and times for not having good manners and standing up for what you believe in. Newspaper editorials, blog posts, debates, protests, class discussions, and basically places where people gather to discuss things are the time and place for all of those things that good manners are not about.)
Ok then
I RESPECT THE DESCISIONS OF OTHERS BECAUSE I HAVE NO DECISIONS OF MY OWN BESIDES AVOIDING MY GUARDIANS.
