B. Be obeyed without a word from the people in the bar
C. Get punched in the face because you're being an *******
D. Get a free drink

This is something you guys keep harping on about even though I thought the issue was closed in the member picture gallery thread. You spent several pages arguing with me how it was all in good fun and how there's only consenting adults there joshing each other without ever actually checking if the target of this "joshing" was cool with it.
Turned out, he wasn't. :/

So, you know, like to little children, I have to explain (again) that the difference between "kidding around" and abusing each other is if feelings are getting hurt. This should be clear, but apparently your bro culture brimming with masculine toxicity didn't teach you that. People have feelings, and you should be careful with them. :/

Pretty sure most of us addressed (or me anyway) that if that's the case it was wrong. I personally have been insulted plenty and never took offense, some of it was even funny. I don't know why you have trouble understanding that joking and not crossing the line can coexist.

So you'd rather lump us in with what I assume are your negative experiences with toxic masculine bro culture instead of listening to constructive criticism about how your approach isn't tactful and is actually making the culture more toxic because you're unwilling to communicate anything but demands that you get your way. I guess that's one way to make a forum more positive :/.

If we didn't cross the line then kidding around would be boring as ****. **** "playful" cultures where everyone toes the line at all times.

You know, I guess dwn was right, there is a fundamental difference of opinion here, I believe we should try to act civil to each other because that makes interaction more pleasant, you believe being an asshole is more interesting. Wattayougonnado. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Being pleasant is for boring old white people who don't want to think about WW2.

How many World Wars do you think it'll take to make the freedom and peace sink in?
