I figured since everyone's panties were in a bunch from my sarcastic rebuke to rachel, Id show what it exactly said. She in no way said anything negative to me or about me, she just thought it was sad that my journal got as many comments as it does and that one of the more serious entries got very few

Comments

Personally I find debating issues fun. I don't think they are always negative. They only turn negative because of people who read Ann Coulter and/or disagree on opinions.

Yes it is sad that not many people comment about someone's father dying, but seriously..what are you supposed to say to that? I know an "Im sorry" will do, but that kind of thing intimidates a lot of people and makes them feel uncomfortable. The other subjects are things people have strong opinions about and are less hesitant to discuss.

Darin's LJ is a refreshing taste after reading LJ after LJ full of emo crap, "Everyone hates me," and "Today I has sex for the first time!!111" Kudos to Darin.

And Darin..About the girl thing...I'd like to quote Frederick Douglas ex-slave Frederick Douglas:

Aside from "Please don't beat me!" he also said, "Without struggle, there is no progress." PROGRESS Darin...Progress... heh.

Dear small and short Kris,

"Personally I find debating issues fun. I don't think they are always negative. They only turn negative because of people who read Ann Coulter and/or disagree on opinions."

I'm curious as to how you can debate something without disagreeing on opinions. The whole point of a debate is two different sides of the issue debating... also known as "to engage in arguement by discussing oppposing points" (definition of "debate", courtesy of dictionary.com). Therefore, according to what you stated, all debating of issues is negative, which totally defeats the purpose of your entire statement, sorry.

"seriously..what are you supposed to say to that? I know an "Im sorry" will do"...

So why not just say, "I'm sorry"?

Good point about the argument thing. I guess what I meant to say is that debates turn negative because so many people take certain issues personally. Unfortunately its hard not to when you are passionate about an issue. But I do think it is possible to hold an argument and try not to bash the other person.

it's not possible to not bash the other person in this journal.

I'm not sure if that was your attempt at an apology, but i wouldn't count on it because you seem to have lost every ounce of respect whatsoever you had for me previously. I can understand how you people don't know what to say, and as i told your friend april who commented in my journal, i simply find it sad that all the people who comment in your journals know what to say when it comes to arguing about everything else, but no one knew what to say to console a schoolmate, whether they knew him or not. I also quoted you when i commented back to april, when you said "the best way to light a burden is to share the load" which i totally agree with, and once again, i simply felt it was quite sad that only 4 people were able to do that, as awkward as it was... you'd think that something like this people would feel a little more motivated to comment on, showing support for jacob, even with the simple words "I'm sorry

[complimentmysky]

to this complimentmysky person, i agree it's sad that the entry about jakes father only got 4 comments and personally im dissapointed that all the people who read this journal didn't comment on it, regardless of if you knew him or not. if you can spend this much time to debate about why no one commented, or why darin is an ass, then you can spend five seconds to write something, even if its not a lot. darin can be sarcatic, but that doesn't make him an ass necessarily. but, if you were really that offended by his mockery of your journal im sorry.

hippo-crit

[complimentmysky]

i really dont think you should take everything so personally. i know that entry may have been mocking your journal, but you seem to be quite big headed in thinking that everything people say is against you. also, your statement "I can understand how YOU PEOPLE don't know what to say.." kinda got to me. who exactly is "you people?" just because you think youre a better person for not making fun of darin, doesnt make it true. no offense or anything, just making a point.

Re: hippo-crit

I'm not thinking that everything people say is against me... that entry that Darin wrote WAS exactly about me, and if you read all of my journal entries, you will know that it's true, and i can back it up with proof from my journal entries which he apparently spends some time reading. I'm sure you can even ask Darin and he will tell you that it was all about me, and making fun of me because i criticized his journal. As for "you people", i didn't mean it that way, and i'm sorry that you think i did. I was simply saying you people to refer to the majority of people who comment in Darin's journal on certain controversial issues, i didn't mean that in a derogatory way at all.

I never said that i was a better person for not making fun of Darin, but i do feel that i didn't deserve what he wrote. Apparently i'm being too oversensitive, according to you and to Darin, but i did find it hurtful, because it WAS a direct shot at me, and i don't think that's being "hippo-critical" as you say, or big-headed.

Quit bitching. You can't stop people from making negative comments, and by complaining about it you are pissing people off even more. If it is so important that the people who read your journal don't react negatively and mock what you write, then why post an online journal at all? Why risk your thoughts and feelings being picked apart by people you don't even like? If it's such a big deal that you have to write comments complaining about your humiliation, take the damn thing down.

Peace out.

yeah this kid knows how we do

emo blows

I like how people get pissed because Darin's LJ sparks discussion, while their's, full of emo bullshit, gets minimal comments

go JEW!

everyone be nice

i read darin's journal tonight because he asked me to and i must say im a little shocked. The entire fight with the online journals is very childish. Honestly, grow up. Darin is very sarcastic and can come across as an ass but I really dont believe he is. You took the joke too far Darin. I can understand Rachel's feelings about this and i dont want to stick up for her or anything but I think someone should. What you said was fucking rude and I know it must have really hurt her feelings cause you have hurt mine pretty bad in the past with your comments that you have said directly to my face. if your not friends with rachel then just keep all your comments to yourself. I know you hate Josh as well, but why is that exactly? do you really know him? Be nice Darin, words hurt.

"sticks and stones may break my bones but WORDS SHALL NEVER HURT ME"
my advice: if you get your feeling hurt by reading a live journal, then don't read it, and you'll never know. and if you do read it, just brush it off. in the words of the great doctor, dr dre, "if you feelin' like a pimp, go on, brush ya shoulders off"
