Posted 20 Jun 2012 Being brutally honest is when you are honest about what you think, without sugar-coating it. You're stating your raw, uncensored opinion. And since it's an opinion, it's also not necessarily right. So I am saying that while you're being honest about your opinion, you're still not right. He's not being an attention whore. Your old thread about your messed-up childhood from the mental abuse by your parents wasn't attention whoring either. You were airing your feelings to the forum, explaining why you're such a rotten human being. As was Ezlo, with this. He wasn't begging for attention, he was just looking for some input. And that's really not so bad. The only person here who seems to have a problem with him is you. So don't go saying you're being "brutally honest" as if you're somehow speaking for the majority, and that we're all thinking the same thing. Because we're not. You're the one who doesn't get that it's he's not attention-seeking.And let me add that wanting attention isn't a bad thing. Complaining and whining when they don't get enough attention is pretty shitty, but why are you attacking him just because he wants a reply. He hasn't been obnoxious about it, so I don't see why you should immediately brand him an "attention whore". He's not whoring attention. He's just replying to people who are replying to him. People who are replying to him because they want to, and not just because he's begging for the attention.And next time, if you want to argue, don't post a condescending video of someone berating other people. Actually make an argument, rather than being dense and not even trying to understand what I'm trying to say.
