I am sick and sad. sick and sad.

seriously.

yes, this is in reference to beth's thread...and no...I don't care.

I respect that people can form their own opinons based on experiences...but forgive me for mistaking the words EXPERIENCE with casual OBSERVATION.

b/c they are not the same in my book.

and I am sad sad sad that we a a whole have so much disdain for each other.

People can have OPINIONS.

It doesn't matter HOW they form them...that's NOT for ANYONE to decide.

You have yours, I have mine and everyone else has theirs.

It is what it is.

Live and let live.

I agree. It seems that we, as a society, are so quick to judge and find the worst in people instead of being thankful for what we have and giving back what we can.

Whatever happened to the idea of paying it forward???

Re: I am sick and sad. sick and sad.

I think it stinks that every one of us probably know at least one person who rips off the system. People can think what they want. They can think something and you can think another. Thats what makes this country free.

I think starting yet another thread on this topic is not helping IMO of course.

I'm not sure what you don't GET.

This is YOUR opinion. I respect that you can have it but I disagree.

EVERYONE is entitled to their opinion, just don't crucify me or anyone else for having one that doesn't agree with yours.

I'm still allowed to state my opinion, RIGHT?

No it doesn't help, IMO, but Jess likes having her opinion stand out on it's own thread.

To each his/her own...it's cool.

so discuss the differences between EXPERIENCE and casual OBSERVATION since you bothered commenting on an unhelpful thread to begin with.

maybe some good could come out of it.

maybe this will be the 4millionth post maker Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

that's right I do.

I'm an attention ***** after all.

like I've said before...so weird for someone to do that on an interet CHAT board..

ETA: this is what kills me.

I will fully admit that I can be an EFFED up person that can FORM WRONG OPINIONS based on my SUBJECTIVE and PERSONAL beliefs.

but that we can have TWO threads in a matter of days with the same people posting DIFFERENT things...and then making disdainful remarks is just mindblowing.

Re: I am sick and sad. sick and sad.

I can form an opinion from an observation.

I don't need to have an experience to have one.

In my opinion, people who do shotput have tremendous upper body strength. I have no experience with them whatsoever it was just an observation from watching the Olympics.

That is an opinion formed from an observation, no?

ETA: Is it because it's a POSITIVE opinion that it's OK?

you are showing me how they are different.

I am confused about how they are interchangable.

and you could be wrong...too, no? I mean are you open to that possibility?

of course not. like I have said...I make my LIVING INVESTIGATING FRAUD..for the govt.

almost NONE of you see it the way it really is.

I see it everyday and STILL don't formulate "opinions" to everyone I encounter that is needy.

and I can PROVE it happens.

I guess that's what gets me....

Did you ever think since you work in the field you have to not form an opinion on anyone until you investigate it?
