Tactfulness is censorship though, no? I'd rather hear it exactly the way you feel it. That way at least I know where to file it.


Posted by blackphaseNot false picture, But if that's how you feel then be a dick about it is what I'm saying. Tactfulness is for strangers on a train. We can go back and correct later if necessery but I want to hear the raw material first.Posted by enfant_terriblePosted by munchykinTactfulness is censorship though, no?

There are 1,025,110 words in the English language. That's more than enough to phrase something tactfully.
[...] No one here is saying that painting a false picture to protect feelings is a good thing.. we are saying don't be a fkn dick about it..click to expand

Posted by ellleAs a lot of folks are to me. It all comes down to our ability to be receptive to words of wisdom. Boils down to egoism. Thats just the brass tax of it. Say what you want. Being sensitive to someone is just catering to their ego. Just like you can't call a Leo out on bullshit. Their wittle egos get all huffy puffy and they wanna fight.
......like our aries friend here.

Posted by ellleThats BS if I've ever seen it. I can be sweet if I want or need to be. I can even fake it if needed.
bottom line.....
those who sugarcoat cannot *not* sugarcoat.
those who are blunt cannot *not* be blunt.
so, no need in bitching about it.

Posted by ellleI'm assuming you have children? Think about it. I am not gonna call my daughter stupid if she breaks her leg doing something stupid. I'm gonna say it in a nice tone and still get the point across. HOWEVER, she is grown now and yes, I tell her like it is now. Just like here. You know what? She don't do that stupid shit anymore. Why? Because I was FIRM with my words and didn't sugarcoat stuff with her. I've seen people complain about their kids REPEATEDLY doing stupid shit, they never really get onto their kids either.Posted by Happygoluckythan you are the worse offender because you force yourself to be something you are not in order to appease others.Posted by ellleThats BS if I've ever seen it. I can be sweet if I want or need to be. I can even fake it if needed.
bottom line.....
those who sugarcoat cannot *not* sugarcoat.
those who are blunt cannot *not* be blunt.
so, no need in bitching about it.
because *you* do this......(and it doesn't come naturally)
then you just assume everyone else is the same.
that's really not the case.click to expand

Posted by blackphaseThere is a hint of love in everything I do and say.Posted by HappygoluckyIt's true.. I've seen your nicer side. 😛Posted by ellleThats BS if I've ever seen it. I can be sweet if I want or need to be. I can even fake it if needed.
bottom line.....

those who are blunt cannot *not* be blunt.

Posted by ellleFigured.
your example with your daughter is stupid and doesn't even make any sense. *shrugs*

Posted by ellleAre you serious? You must get ignored if you have kids. My daughter asks me for advice constantly. I am a Father, not a dad.
she doesn't do that stupid shit anymore because she's a grown person and can figure it out on her own. you are just background noise now.

Posted by ellleLOL. Black and white. Fixed signs can't see the difference.
*barking orders

Posted by wecarealotIsn't this 100% the case? We tell the truth as we see it, otherwise its just flat out lying. What I hate is people claiming to tell the truth and they omit shit.
I don't have time to read through all the posts in this thread, but the one thing I've found funny about people who claim to be "brutally honest" is that they're only brutally honest about what THEY consider to be the truth. Which is fine, I guess, but you rarely catch them admitting to this. When people say, "I'm brutally honest; I'll you the truth," what I hear is, "I don't give a fuck about your feelings, and I'll always tell you the truth AS I SEE IT." I'm not saying that attitude is always wrong--no one is obligated to care about my feelings anymore than I'm obligated to care about theirs--but I'd have way more respect for a ~brutally honest~ person who was brutally honest with themselves about this.

You just made my whole topic for me. I WAS MORE BLUNT AND YOU SAW IT CLEAR. Elle said the same thing I did but in a "nicer" way and it never even hit home for you. OPEN YOUR EYES AND EARS!
Nothing funny about it.
Like Elle said... people think, process, and communicate in different ways that are not the same way as you do.
I have no idea what you are talking about....
"Elle said the same thing I did but in a "nicer" way and it never even hit home for you. OPEN YOUR EYES AND EARS!"

Posted by ellleYour delivery was "nicer" and made zero impact. Mine was bluntly said and look at the REACTION. Point proven. Thanks Scorpio ladies.
Elle said the same thing I did but in a "nicer" way
^^^^^ this shit cracks me up because I was making a genuine attempt to be rude and obnoxious.
and you took it as "nicer"....being the aries you are.
however.....50% of the rest of the board probably thought I was being a bitch.

Posted by bmoon8I didn't know you were a lady. I apologize. It was more of a wake up and smell the coffee than anything.
Oh happy, I am sure you "fag" comment came from a place of love.... being that I am female and all. Ha.

Posted by ellleThat was playing? You accomplished nothing besides showing your ass and now, running because you got caught. Scorps can't own up to anything. You should be embarrassed.
besides the fag comment.....you were fun to play with!

Posted by blackphaseI didn't expect you to catch that reference. It was for Elle and she got it.
I haven't even seen all that she has said to you.. Seemed you were implying that because she isn't speaking toward anyone but you.. and she is very tactful in the way she speaks to most of us. I don't think she is out to sting the weaker souls at all.
