I Have Rage Attacks

Something's gotta change. Got a call from a bartender friend of mine and he told me what happened the other night. I had a fist fight in the alley behind his place with his ex. That explained the blood spots on my jeans and the sore hands and bruised feeling in my face. As he was giving me the details I remembered. All I knew at the time was I was feeling higher than King Kong on the Empire State Building and just as angry.

I'm not doing coke again. I really have to stop doing these things.

be mature and learn to behave yourself, coke and late nights at the bar are for the big kids.

@xSharp: I guess some of us are judgmental aren't we

@tilagirl: i have the ability to judge therefore i should use my ability to judge, just like you have the ability to think in order to prevent stupid things from being done, should one just simply choose not to think? in my experience the only people who say it is wrong to judge are those who really do not want to be judged because they know they will be judged poorly, those who accomplish things of value actually enjoy being judged on the job they have done because they would like to know how they can IMPROVE.

@xSharp: in my experience people who judge are trying to control other people because they're unhappy with their own lives

@tilagirl: you get blacked out drunk and fight with an ex gf outside a bar, totally embarrassing your bf that is if he even cares about his public image and costing the establishment any responsible patrons in the process and you are saying it is wrong to judge? pretty convenient if you ask me, you do not like judgement because it would cause you to have to take a little responsibility for yourself, so you simply discount and dismiss any constructive criticism rather than face your own behavior. am i getting close?

@xSharp: You're not being constructive. You're being judgmental. Two different things.

xSharp · 31-35, M

@tilagirl: judgement: the ability to make considered decisions or come to sensible conclusions.

constructive: serving a useful purpose; tending to build up.

i felt judgement was the better choice, which do you think of these two words is more fitting for the given situation?

SW-User

@xSharp: so where do you think you were being constructive?

xSharp · 31-35, M

@tilagirl: i was not being constructive thats your job, as you said i was being judgmental, which is a good thing because now you are aware of how you appear to everybody else and can come to a sensible conclusion as judgement is meant to produce.

@xSharp: you're being judgmental without being helpful.
