I'm guilty of attempting to appear clever so that I am not
thought of as a mute and all associated meanings that go along
with it. I'm doing it now! And [1]John Blaise Lent You're not
incorrect either. You're right. The difference between the way I
put things and the way yo put things is a matter of taste in how
we deal with other people. I don't think there is a right or
wrong in this case and also, there's not really a wrong way to
view this.
So in that sense, I was making a MORAL judgement call by calling
these things "Mistakes". Who am I do declare how someone
"should" consider other humans? I'm just a guy going blah blah
blah in the end tongue emoticon
