Cinnamon Mistwood Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 I'm having a negative people day, so bear with me. This is just a random vent. Peeves: People who assume negative intent instantly without ever questioning it. People who say (and may even believe) that respect has to be earned rather than extending common respect to others unless there is a reason to have lost it. People who do not give grace to other fellow humans, but expect it to be given to them. Dang it! People are my peeve today. *grumble grumble* 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kimmi Zehetbauer Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 Peeve 1203: One I saw eons ago. A sign on the wash room door --- "For your convenience - Out of service." I think the person who wrote it had poor English skills. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its just an el cheapo platform rental place where I can just stand around looking pretty and rez stuff, and I don't log in that much these days, so I can suffer through it. It builds character after all! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Love Zhaoying Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 I think peeves are meant to be free, wild, live in nature. Don't keep them as pets. And for goodness sake, have your peeved spayed and neutered. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sammy Huntsman Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 I don't know how to word this, but I will try my best. Some stores need to fix a few things, as I have a pretty beefy computer, and walking through the store is a nightmare cause of lag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What, and deprive them of a completely natural function?? Just think, where would the world be without peeves breeding more cute little baby peeves? Peeves could become an endangered species.

Some stores need to fix a few things, as I have a pretty beefy computer, and walking through the store is a nightmare cause of lag. Beefy computers don't help much in SL generally. The reason many stores lag are the high amount of textures and meshes for the individual colour vendors, especially since it's so common these days that each colour is represented by a 2D cut-out of the product with its unique texture for each colour. Usually in the highest texture resolution possible, 'cause 'quality'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that feeling. But as I get older, I have learned not to fall for that trap. I will say my piece and if it turns into a debate. I will do my best to avoid it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is why it is called an opinion, it isn't fact whatsoever. I mean everyone has differing opinions, and as humans it is natural for us to have some sort of civil discourse. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might try reading some...on either side. But I understand...it seems your job is time-consuming and sometimes exhausting, you've said. More often than not though you simply state your opinion without presenting a good link or anything to back it up...that makes it hard to discuss a topic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you not realize that opinions do not need a link to back them up? Many people's opinions about various things are simply based on how they were raised, or how their religion views things, or how someone they idolize views things, etc..... Links are really only needed if someone is truly trying to convince someone else to come over to their viewpoint. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We began debating an issue -- what rights should undocumented immigrants have in the US basically, their children born here specifically. To arrive at an answer we needed more than what we both brought to the table initially. I actually knew little about it, and it was fun to check it out a bit. And no...I was not trying to force you into anything...I was debating...I was open to how you might change the viewpoint I began leaning toward as much as I was presenting my evidence.

LittleMe Jewell Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 Typed a bunch of stuff out, but it is waaaaaaayyyyyyyy off topic for this PEEVE thread. And I don't think I should let myself get drawn back into the other thread. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
