  1. why are you guys acting like RDN is nothing but constant fighting? It honestly seems to me that the past few weeks has had less arguments than usual even... why overreact like this

    1. @rarity it has been a lot calmer recently I noticed, that might be why it was extra disappointing to see another silly argument finally come about

      1. @ellistia calling out racism is never silly.

        1. @rarity it is when it isn't racism

          1. @ellistia except it was.

            1. @rarity racism implies there is prejudice over an ethnic group. Pointing out that every employee in a store had a similar name is not prejudice

              1. @ellistia it's racism because it makes it a joke.

                1. @rarity that's only how you interpreted it as far as I can see

                  Wednesday, 08-Oct-14 02:19:44 UTC from web
                  1. @ellistia "I, as a white man, do not see the racism, therefore there is no racism"

                    1. @rarity "A white man pointed out something, therefore it MUST be racism"

                    2. @rarity racism has a definition, it's not subjective

                      1. @ellistia fine, call it trivialization of a race. It's a stupid joke to make. I'll admit I might have blown it out of proportion but It IS offensive.

                        1. @rarity Would it have been offensive if everyone in the store was called Ben or Tom

                          Wednesday, 08-Oct-14 02:33:13 UTC from web
                          1. @ellistia if everyone in the store had typical Anglo names he wouldn't have pointed it out in the first place.

                            Wednesday, 08-Oct-14 02:34:03 UTC from web
                            1. @rarity Actually, if everyone was named Tom I'd be a little bit more than curious as to why everyone was named Tom.

                              1. @mrmathimation everyone having the exact same name=/=everyone having two different types of endings to their name

                                Wednesday, 08-Oct-14 02:35:59 UTC from web
              2. @ellistia Hmm. It's probably the second time I agree with you on something.

                Wednesday, 08-Oct-14 02:20:06 UTC from web
    2. @rarity The past few weeks have been pretty chill. Nobody started crap for a while and it was nice while it lasted.

    3. @rarity It just seems to me like everybody has beef with somebody. Everybody would gladly see at least one person here suffer for the rest of their short, sad lives.

      Wednesday, 08-Oct-14 02:13:35 UTC from web
      1. @mrmathimation um, no? I wouldn't wish that on anyone here. And I have a lot of enemies

        Wednesday, 08-Oct-14 02:13:53 UTC from web
      2. @mrmathimation I don't have beef with anyone, but I might be the exception as opposed to the rule.

      3. @mrmathimation That's the point of emnity, isn't it?

      4. @mrmathimation Not everyone
