This is my rebuttal for Cara
Read Sarah's journal if you want to know what happened yesterday.


That is the exact response I would expect from you, Cara.
It's a little annoying to see you get so defensive if anybody says anything bad about you.
And even when it doesn't concern you, you get defensive.
You say it doesn't bother you but then you write two comments about it
I've learned to adapt to it since you've been my friend for so long, but really.
I think it matters, and they think it matters. The only one who doesn't think it matters is you and because of that you say that it truly doesn't matter and shouldn't matter to anybody. Whenever you leave a journal comment it's always saying something critical about Leila, Sarah or me.
I understand it's your journal, and this is my journal. I don't go and bash you and be all critical to you when I find something I don't like in your journal. Don't use this as an example. It wasn't something I didn't like or was angry about; I just wanted to point out the irony in that. I understand you aren't me but you are more mature than me and I would expect that you would at least be on par with me on that.
Don't say that all of this is s**t because you can be unreasonable. Let me use an example of when you did basically the same thing: "I miss my nerd camp people." and "I miss nerd camp." You had just gotten back. The first thing you say to me after I haven't seen or talked to you in three weeks is that. And you were only away from them for what? Ten hours maybe? And now me seeing Sarah before you after I just back from a week long trip is basically the same. That is why you are being unreasonable. It doesn't annoy me since I'm used to it, but it is unreasonable.
And what is this long thing about the president? If anybody famous cared about what somebody said or felt about them then they wouldn't be in show business or politics now would they? That would be stupid. Obviously you are somebody like that and doesn't care so I doubt any of this stuff I'm typing will matter to you.
If there is anything grammatically wrong or anything spelt wrong, I don't care to know.

I didn’t ever think I’d say this, but I’m fully on Julie’s side.
She’s completely right.

Ohmygod, One typo. I used the wrong form of “your/you’re”. Let’s all go kill ourselves.
Cara, you act like one typo totally defines a person.
Or maybe in your world, it does.

To be honest, the only good comebacks you have are attacking people for their bad grammar and typos. It’s pretty lame and very haughty, when you look at it from our point of view.

And, the interesting thing? You get mad at Julie for posting your entry and saying “no comment.” Julie could have exploded with anger, and we all know that. She could have, but she chose to be the mature one, and just ignore it. And now, because she’s obviously winning, you’re sulking about it because you want to be better than everyone.

Disappointed in us? For not backing you up? I’m not trying to favour anyone; I’m going with who I think is right. In this case, it’s Julie.



Byetheway, Julie, I love your current avatar.

I say it shouldn't matter to anybody because it shouldn't. If you're honestly worried about what someone says about you in an online journal, which you yourself have admitted is solely a place to rant, then it seems to me you have no right to be pointing out the alleged hypocrisy on my part.
Also, if you had read my response carefully enough you would have realized that I was not saying bad things about /you/-- rather, I was saying bad things about Sarah and Leila, who, I've heard from reliable sources, are sentient human beings and are entirely capable of standing up for themselves. The only thing I said about you was that it should not matter what people say in an online journal, which is entirely justified. Now who's being defensive?
It is not at all the same. I was bemoaning the abrupt transition from TIPsters to Houstonians, but you were the first person I saw when I got back-- the fact that you chose to see someone else before me was the only grievance I expressed in that xanga entry. The two things are entirely unrelated: in your case you were upset about who I was speaking of and in my case I was upset about who you chose to see upon arrival. The two things are completely unrelated except for the totally irrelevant factor of our respective travels.
And if it supposedly "doesn't annoy you", why are you writing a journal entry about it? –c-

What am I supposed to do when someone brings claims of "unreasonableness" against me-- and not even well-propagated claims at that. Sit back and take it? You know me too well to expect that from me.
I never said it doesn't bother me. I said that it is ridiculous that what I said bothers YOU-- which I stand by. Again, you should read my responses more carefully before jumping to conclusions.
Again, I was not contesting the irony of what I said, nor was I attempting to fight the fact that you pointed it out. I only brought to your attention the general unimportance of what people say on online journals, and my remarks to Leila and Sarah are not your business and you therefore have no standing to respond to them.
The rather witty blurb about the president was not meant to be practical: I was merely illustrating the Laguna Beach-esque drama of our generation and bringing to light what it is turning us into. Obviously it was not a realistic example.
Everyone cares about what people think about them. What do you think all the slander lawsuits against tabloids have been about? Humans are social creatures by design. We are programmed to interact with each other and, therefore, to care about our reputations. Just because I think other people have no basis for what they are saying and, therefore, that their claims are idiotic and half-baked does not mean I don't care. If someone tells you that they do not care at all what others think of them, they are lying to seem cool.

"My remarks to Leila and Sarah are not your business and you therefore have nostanding to respond to them. "
Not true. Not true, at all. She has a right to say what she thinks of your speech, and she has a right to stand up for us. That is, if she wants to do either one of those.
And since you didn't reply to my comment, I'll be haughty myself and asume that it means I win.

You people really do not bother to read what I write, do you? You just scan it and pick up the general tone and assume that I'm attacking this person or that person. I never said I was mad at Julie. In fact, I expressly stated that I was not. I never contested her opinion of what I said. The only thing I did do, contrary to your mangled assertions, was to attempt to downplay my actions by saying that it does not matter. With half a brain and a second of analytical thought-- as opposed to what you apparently did; jump to attack mode-- it would become apparent that the only aim of my response (towards Julie, anyway) was to, in effect, downplay my actions. And if she knows me as well as she says she does, she should realize that downplaying my actions is an attempt to take away any residual negative feelings toward what I did. In other words, it was an apology without an apology.
In saying that no one should care what is written in an online journal, I was in effect saying that my statements did not carry any weight-- meaning that they were not my lasting opinion about her, meaning that she should not feel bad, meaning that I did not want her to feel bad, meaning that she is my FRIEND.
I also expressed my disappointment in Leila and Sarah for jumping to conclusions so rapidly. Are you really going to take one person's side of the story for the absolute undeniable truth and form an opinion based on that? And do you really think this miniscule incident is worth forming an opinion about? You must, since you took the time to type out insults towards me. I expressed my disappointment towards your beliefs that it matters, which I stand by.
Get it now?

And since you didn't reply to my comment, I'll be haughty myself and asume that it means I win. --- It is true if you are using logical thinking as opposed to irrational, emotion-influenced hormones as a brain. I was assuming that you were a senient creature and could form your own defense; although, since you have resorted to petty one-liners and inflammatory untruths, I see that I may have been wrong. And now, because she’s obviously winning, you’re sulking about it because you want to be better than everyone. --- Winning? Is this a battle now? Are you really in that mindset, are you really that belligerent? If you are, it is truly saddening. This is a clashing of opinions, not a schoolyard tussle. Grow up. Ohmygod, One typo. I used the wrong form of “your/you’re”. Let’s all go kill ourselves. Cara, you act like one typo totally defines a person. Or maybe in your world, it does. --- Obviously I realize that one typo does not reflect on a person's ableness or intelligence. My response was an attempt to lighten the mood-- any reasonable person should have realized that grammatical corrections are not a proper response. I can hardly be blamed if you missed the humor. And, the interesting thing? You get mad at Julie for posting your entry and saying “no comment.” Julie could have exploded with anger, and we all know that. She could have, but she chose to be the mature one, and just ignore it. And now, because she’s obviously winning, you’re sulking about it because you want to be better than everyone. -- I wasn't mad at Julie. Read what I say for the umteenth time. Disappointed in is? For not backing you up? I’m not trying to favour anyone; I’m going with who I think is right. In this case, it’s Julie. -- For letting yourselves be sucked into this culture of belligerence and taking sides, for letting yourselves care about any of this which does not matter, for assuming that everyone is against you? Pick your favorite. My intentions were good and just because I do not express an apology in the same way as everyone else does simply not give you the right to attack me.


comment Commented on: Mon Aug 14, 2006 @ 03:11am
Are you going to respond or have you revoked your belligerence? Because 'got it' hardly tells me where you stand-- it just tells me that you understand my opinion, not that you necessarily agree with it.

And there is your answer, right there.
I understand it, I don't fully agree with it.
But now that it's made clearer to me, I can see where you're coming from.

I'm not sure what your intention of that was.
It could have been to make me feel stupid, make you seem obnoxious, show that you don't believe what I'm saying, I don't know.

It seems like you think that because you use big words [or in this case, small] and are smarter than the rest of us that you can be our psychiatrist.


comment Commented on: Mon Aug 14, 2006 @ 03:56am
Your psychiatrist? Hah. Go figure.
I don't even think I use particularly big words. At least, I do not use big words for the sake of using big words. I use them because their meanings are more detailed and can better express what I am trying to explain. That's why they're there.
I see nothing particularly insulting about 'lolk'. Forgive me if I have broken some subtle social code that forbids me from such foul language.
(why would I want to be your psychiatrist? In fact, where have I ever exhibited that sort of behavior? It seems to me that by suggesting what I am thinking, by suggesting what my intentions are-- that's what a psychatrist does, isn't it? So aren't you the one trying to be my psychiatrist? (lol @ hypocrisy)
If that is the case, you are a very bad psychiatrist. I have many motives, but none of them are being anyone's psychiatrist. Except Sam, but he's suicidal and we've gotta keep him alive, right?)

Eh, I'm done with this.
I'm just not going to reply to your next comment.
Because I believe that this getting us absolutely no where.


comment Commented on: Mon Aug 14, 2006 @ 04:18am
You're entitled to your beliefs-- I, however, think that since it wasn't supposed to get us anywhere in the first place, you can hardly be disappointed. sad
