Hi dude.

Well, the title says it all really.

I'll just explain. You know when I bollacksed you out the other day for "asking questions". I was talking to my wife this morning about some stuff between her and me, and she said something that made me think of you. (geez that would be perfect for the context thread...)

She said she likes to debate just for the fun of it. People can be split into two groups on this topic. Those who love to debate, to play devil's advocate, to ask questions, to "wonder why" and so on. The other group don't like "arguments", are peacemakers, they like people to be in harmony.

I suspect you are the former and I the latter. I saw your "asking questions" as stirring up discontent, as enabling pointing fingers, as doing "what if". These things I despise and see them as unnecessary, pointless, "in the way". I don't like it when people are "arguing", I don't really know how to debate.

I suspect you are more academic than I. I'm more of an artistic mindset, where "you can tell me I'm wrong, but you better have a damned good reason".

After this conversation with my wife, I also realised that I was being unfair to you. Asking questions, and asking what-if's are an important part of life. I'm sorry I came down so hard on you, for just being who you are. I'm sorry that my perception got blinded, for seeing discontent where there was none, and an "argument" when you didn't have that intent.

I do hope that you continue asking questions. Maybe I could learn some things from you?

In anycase. Sorry I beat you with a large stick for no apparent reason. Friends?

Seek fun and you shall find it. Seek stuff to Q_Q about and you'll find that, too. I choose to have fun.
