I don't know where to start, xanthas. That I must have forgotten the lesson that one can turn from quite polite to a miserable throw of problems, or your inability to read in between the lines, or connect the dots...
Let us start on connecting the dots. Please keep up, because when ever am I in the mood for tolerating others' hypocritical accusations?
I am a legal American, but that does not mean people will not recognize the Asian part (from my mother) and use it against me for personal or petty reasons. I'm sure in your head whatever you said sounded logical to you, if that is the case then you need more logic.
(If you said it without checking if it was really logical or not then you must be using me for your own selfish deeds, which would be to self project or vent upon, of which I am not accepting any bit of whatever bad day you've had.)
Would you rather me talk as if everything I was talking about was a fact? For example, you saying I am an idiot would be less logical than saying you believe I am an idiot, because obviously I have a comparable view for you on the matter. How can you be sure? That is why I am careful of what I write and use the words "I believe" because they are more considerate and less... ahem arrogant. (Also referring to me as boy, especially at the end of the nonsensical sentence 'where you've got your head' might be considered talking down to me, and also be considered proof of such arrogance.)
It can also be a characteristic sort of speech pattern, but since it leans towards the more mannered side and you seem to lean towards the more careless slang side, (where you've got your head?) I don't think you would make that connection.
But since you asked, what I believe, is that I'm quite sure that you're the jerk, and literally so, as logically, looking at the situation I am not the one who pretended to be nice, ('pardon me' for making an observation) and then threw my incredible mood swing entirely at the other person.
Also I am a female, this shows as though you've skimmed (and I mean, just skimmed) through more than one of my posts, you don't have a very good eye.
It also leads me further into the idea that you are simply self projecting, as why else would you accuse me of being the jerk? Even if I was careless enough to make those mistakes and your scanty logic were true, have you no pity? Where is your compassion? Shoved somewhere in a dark, deep closet? That is why you are the jerk, at least in this situation. And not because I say so, no... by your own choice,
I believe.
And if you are not self projecting, I ask, are you racist? Perhaps that has more to do with it than you might think.
I would think, after you reading more than one of my posts and the only thing you can think of is my racial disposition.
Then again, that could just be a means of venting at someone because you cannot handle your own emotions. I wonder, do you ever try? Trying is what matters.
And if I am annoying you right now, (because by some chance you are still reading - not skimming,) then try to deal with it. Just try.
Quote:Seems you don't much have an idea about much of anything except being very scared about all sorts of imagined disasters & thinking "Michigan, I have to make it to Michigan!"
What is your basis for saying that the quakes are imagined?
So you don't even check the links when you skim things, hm...
Even I myself don't recall saying CA is absolutely for certain going down, no matter what.
I do however recall myself recounting more than once that leaving CA would mean more to me than simply leaving the quakes.
Saying I am scared is only proof to anyone who is willing to notice you don't take very long before blasting someone away with anything you can find.
If this were not true you also would have noticed - surely up to now, that I am willing to consider other places than Michigan. But not even a guess or consideration? I guess guessing isn't close enough to jumping to conclusions, then.
I don't know why you asked the question however irrelevant it may seem, perhaps because you take everything personally?
And how ironic
your reply! 'Idiotic & rude,' ah hohoho... But may I ask, what is so rude about saying 'perhaps it has more to do with it than I think' if you are not taking things more personally than you should be?
To me, (as the person who has said the words) it seems more like a consideration, or a considerate nod towards your direction, not a low down blasphemy of your intelligence. But thankfully now we've found out a little more about that.
I tried not to put in more of my life than what was necessary, but perhaps it is... Second time someone assumes they know more about my situation than me. Perhaps it is the sheer delight of having enough power to give advice to someone, no? (I'm sure you make a great friend though, right?)
The point is, being in my situation, and being in my head, I am likely to know more about my situation than you do, especially concerning such cases. If I say something like that, then that means, to answer your question - both of them - that no, being Asian had nothing to do with me leaving CA, but I still considered it, you unfortunately it seems, couldn't even afford me as much consideration. (Do your friends ever ask you to return favors, by the way?)
I mentioned that I was half Asian because it was more relevant at the time I said it. I don't think of myself as not Asian then go around spouting it out for no reason. Because you're right, that wouldn't make much sense would it?
Obviously instead of being recommended to live in more racial places, I pointed it out as another reason moving to Michigan wasn't a bad idea. Then even if I wasn't moving to Michigan I would instead get pointers on other similar places. That is part of why I list the reasons for moving to Michigan, not a flat out "I am moving to Michigan, period" like you seemed to have read.
Quote:Frankly I don't care where you go or what you intend to do just don't expect anybody to give you a lift, open their house to you or 'lend you a helping hand' with that kind of attitude.
: D Then it's good you're not the one asking for a lift, isn't it?
I would expect as much from someone like you, in fact it is an obviously predictable attitude, without your even saying it, as far as your response went.
I
know you don't care, otherwise you would have read more carefully and responded less carelessly - among sorts. If you even cared enough about others would you not be more considerate as to who you're throwing your trash at and why?
And yet somehow you have to let me
know you don't care. What kind of attitude is that, I ask?
And if you don't care what I do, why do you care whether or not I expect a lift from anyone? Perhaps you will remain cynical and pass over your grave in that shadow, but you're not going to pass that attitude to me.
