I don't give the benefit of the doubt to some classist rich guy who tells people to get cancer. Two wrongs do not make a right. Be better than that.
I'm sure he wouldn't appreciate it if someone told him to get an aneurysm like Bernie, eh?
Yeah, like the Guitarist from Labyrinth totally ignoring me when I was talking to him.
I didn't care, I said hi, and told him good job and let him on his way. This was in the courtyard. I know darn well, not to assume everyone is friendly there, because not everyone is. That's just the facts of going to events where many different types of people go to. You should never, ever, let your guard down at events, even if people seem friendly. As I said, people have Personas they can put on when in public. I do my best not to, what you see is exactly me. I don't think I would've sat on those Ants if I had a Persona on...
I wasn't at Progpower to make friends, If I did make friends then it's cool and appreciate the time spent. I went to hear the music I enjoy, played by bands I will never get the chance to see live, and I am seizing that moment. Meeting the bands too in the courtyard and at the festival itself, is just a treat and an extra perk of the festival, and I seized that opportunity to.
That's another thing too. People put on an Online Persona as well, besides their Public Persona. For some reason, a lot people put on an Asshole Persona, and end up typing words they don't mean or won't really say in a Face to Face conversation. There's a vast difference in saying things on the spot, and typing it out which gives you the opportunity to edit your thoughts. It'd be hilarious to see people type in the way we speak, meaning a constant flow without a chance for editing what was said, in this way the spelling and grammar would be horrible.
Maybe we need to require facebook and twitter to repeat our posts back to us in the voice of MICROSOFT SAM, to show us how ridiculous the words we type sound when actually spoken verbally.
