We're preaching to the unconvertible Bob.


"It seems you've done a bit of selective reading as clearly you haven't acknowledged the first sentence - "Sympathy is an extension of empathic concern"."


Look in a dictionary and they are clearly two different though thematically related concepts


Sympathy

Feelings of pity and sorrow for someone else's misfortune.

Formal expression of such feelings; condolences


Empathy

The ability to understand and share the feelings of another.


The wikipedia phrase you quote is essentially just meaningless waffle, it is wikipedia after all.


Anyway, my head is sore from the brick wall, I give up.

Oh I see.. You run into the room of strangers, you repeatedly tell them all how brilliant you are in the most ridiculous manner (as well as how stupid they are), then when they all tell you you're a tit - you play the victim?



Wake up and smell the coffee, man!



It's you. Take responsibility for the reaction YOU illicit in others.

As if I'm going to listen to a bunch of imbalance people. I say get over your low self-esteem issues as I much rather want to talk about football. Something that is sorely lacking in your posts.


Anyway, no amount of bullying will force me off the forum.

Other individuals don't have a problem with me and have had private messages giving support after seeing abuses targetted towards me.


I think the real issue is low self-esteem for people like Bob and co. Bob didn't exactly appeared in this thread to talk about in-depth football matters unless I'm seriously mistaken. Besides what gives him the right to tell me who I am or not? If he feels inadequate then seek treatment. I don't have any issues with people who are better than me on certain subjects. Why would I?

On behalf of my client Red Devil, I am writing to state that Red Devil wishes it to be known that he has not sent UDT a private message of support.

Should any fellow forumite allude to such a slanderous accusation, they will be served with the relevent writ.

Otta, I draw the line with football arguments over your nonsense that everyone hates Liverpool.

I'm not too concern. It's usually the same few individuals who feel they have a god given right to dictate what can be said on a forum.

She was saying that you're a troll UDT, keep up.


Going back a step, what I was asking UDT is, being as you think I know nothing about footballo, does that mean that all of my views about anything are automatically dismissed by you, or just my views on football.


Secondly, is there a UDT Football Exam that we can sit, in order to prove our worth in a discussion about this deeply complex subject?

I respect Jah Lush posts when he talks about football from a footballing angle. You're unable to do so. Can you see the difference? It has nothing to do with matching up to my high standards. You only trying to misrepresent the situation because you don't like me. That isn't my problem. It's yours and you really need to get over your lack of self-esteem.

Otta, no amount of bullying or misrepresentation is going to make me accept your poorly thought out views on football. It's my right if I choose what to accept. Get over it.

I think I'll be able to get over it. You still didn't actually answer my question, but that is hardly surprising.


Interesting you mention Jah, as I noticed that having predicted that Italy would win, Jah immediately posted along the lines of "ahem, I got that one wrong then". A good humoured post, that people appreciate.


Can you see the difference between you and Jah?

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
