I don't know what you are talking about Mr. Durden

"Welcome to Fight Club. The first rule of Fight Club is: you do not talk about Fight Club. The second rule of Fight Club is: you DO NOT talk about Fight Club! "
 
I was in one in high school but it was more of a backyard/ garage/ anywhere boxing type thing... It was awesome!
 
Every generation has something like that (at least the boys).

We used to have "rumbles" under the railroad trestle or in an open field away from houses and the prying eyes of adults. :D

Seems hilarious now.

We had a "no cutting" rule, meaning knives or broken bottles.

Nobody ever thought about guns then, so no rule for that. There were often sticks, bicycle chains and brass knuckles, though... and a lot of running around and yelling and stuff. :D

But I didn't call him one, just said his behaviors resembled one. And sweeping generalizations exist for a reason, and they are usually true, although always exceptions to the rule, as always. If he takes offense to something I didn't call him, then what does that say? Either way, I really don't care. If people feel challenged by me, that's a good thing. Without challenge there is no success. If people feel the need to beat me in an argument, I force them to look up facts, and some people just aren't used to that on forums. And contrary to popular belief, pure honesty is also something people really, and I mean really don't like. How would a wife feel if when she asked "does this dress make me look fat?", and it did, and you told her so. You'd be in the doghouse. Or what if we told our bosses our real opinions about them if we didn't like them, which is so often the case? Fact is, we are a society of liars, we lie everyday. I strive to be honest, as that is how I was raised. And I'm thankful everyday I work with my family who beleieves in the same virtues, otherwise i'd probably be unemployed. My styles, methods, and beliefs are differernt, and some people, don't take different so good. Couple that in with telling them their wrong, with explanations tied to facts, research, and the like, add a pinch of sarcasm, and poof you have scenarios like this.

Well, since we are being honest here, not all people here feel challenged by you. Some people actually feel that trying to make any kind of point with you, or even offer a different opinion to you is pointless, because, well.... you seem to be somewhat challenged. Just sayin....:rolleyes:

Lol, says the guy/girl who can't fire up a debate without emotional pointless rants with zero facts to back his/her case. Yep, I'm definitely the one challenged here. :rolleyes:
 
I don't feel challanged by you or anyone else on here. I accept that others know more than me on some subjects and move on.

Why cdma is better than gsm. <<< i don't know about that and i don't care to, but when i do i will probably read what people have to say and then go research on my own.

No one should feel threatened by knowlage of any sort the only bad knowlage is that which isn't used.

So to say one person or another is "challanged" is just ignorant. some people just can't express their views as well as others. That doesn't automatically mean that they are challenged.

@damewolf13 if you were "just sayin..." as you put it then you wouldn't have put it out here for everyone to see. If you have an opinion about something you shouldn't have to feel like you need to cover it up on a online forum full of people you will most likely never meet, (unless you arrange it and what not).

ok im done for now.

Good, because you don't seem to realize where this discussion started, therefore, your post seemed a bit confused, and vague.

Some people (not saying you) here can not see past their own limited world. It is easy to percieve things with a very limited view when you do not open your heart, and head, to the real world, and embrace the possibility that you might actually learn from others if you gave it a chance. Furthermore, others might be open to learning from you, if you didn't constantly alienate them.
I am not a bully, so I make peace now, as I have no need to battle with small minds on some forum where reality doesn't exist for some.
I wish you well.

Every word out of your mouth further proves my point.;)

Now, just as I told Frisco, you will not recieve another reply from me.
It is a waste of my precious time to expend energy on someone who can not reason, and carry on an intelligent conversation, without bullying others. I wish you peace.

And what point was that? It's too hard to accept truthful fact filled answers, and when people don't agree with you, you call them "challenged" without a shred of reason or proof to back your side? Yeah, ok. Have fun with that. Seriously.
