Assumptions about other Cellar users
 
Why do some message-board users seem to prefer to assume something negative about another user here rather than ask them directly if their assumption is correct? And be polite about it while asking.

So many, it seems, choose to post their assumption first and maybe even hope it's inflammatory?

People seem to crave drama.

Yes...some folks crave it so bad that when they finally realize how bad they looked whining in another thread, rather than stop they'll start another thread specifically to whine in. Some have even done that more than once.

wow, what a thought [but these people are the politest board users. Perhaps you meant to post this on another site?]

I know it's a crappy place to find yourself Steve....I know, I've been there. Sorry 'bout that but
The irony of this just makes me feel like an 'open mouth drooler' so my pain for ya factor is real low. Sorry 'bout that too.

I have always assumed that all Cellarites know better than I do and have more and better life experiences than I do and are certainly much more worthy. I live by that.

And that Brianna, goes straight to the heart of your problem. IT'S NOT TRUE.
Understand that, and you're on your way. You won't need to be reassured daily. ;)

*tease with a grin*
ahh, but do they have a purple living room? ;);) I bet not.

I want better life experiences too but I am too chicken to be cool. You're cool. :)

It must be true because it's now the Cellar tag line.

since no one else has said it yet, I guess it falls on my shoulders to point out "when you make an assumption, you make an ass out of u and mption."
