    Good on you for having the supernatural ability of arbitrarily assigning how much attention you want to give to something!

    Unfortunately, that’s not how regular human brains work.

      Ahh yes. The golden rule. Too much for “regular humans.” That explains a lot about how the world works.

        I mean, if you think that’s so easy you should go into psychiatry. You could singlehandedly solve ADHD, OCD, PTSD and a plethora of other mental disorders just by finding a way for the human brain to “place attention where you want it to be”.

          I get that you are determined to put me down because reversing course now would make you wrong, and you’d rather block your ears than ever admit you might have punched the wrong person—but, to assume that people not paying attention in a meeting have an actual, diagnosable, “mental disorder” is really rude to the people who actually do live with those problems.

          You really should be ashamed of yourself. Ignoring your peers. Criticizing people who want you to treat others well. Throwing around “mental disorders” with reckless abandon.

          In this entire thread I’ve not called anyone a name, but you sir or madam, have earned it. You are an asshole.

          Goodbye.

            …what? How did you even assume all of that from two comments? You sure you’re replying to me and not to the strawman in your head? I haven’t said a single one of the things you’re accusing me of.

              Funny, that’s been happening to me all day. Yet that’s how I’ve interpreted your words. Oh well.

              Blocking now. Adios.
