Trying to simplify the definition to “large landmass surrounded by ocean” leaves the question of how large? When does an island bcome a continent? How do we determine which island goes with which continent? Or is it just an island & not part of the continent at all?

I mean, totally.
The idea and definition of what a continent *is* is always going to be imprecise and contingent on what factors (geography, history, ideology, usefulness) you consider important.

By your count, how many continents are there?
(To cut to the chase, if you give any number other than 4, or less, you’re getting in a tizzy for no reason)

The older I get the less patience I have for this mindset “if it feels good, it’s virtuous”
Sometimes doing bad things feels good! Like drugs or getting things for free. It’s fine, do bad things for pleasure if the harms to others are minor or diffuse, just don’t act like it’s not vice.

Also, it’s fine to feel shame!
You’re doing a shameful thing! It’s not murder, there are so many worse things you could do. You don’t even have to stop doing it, just stop acting as if you’re doing a virtuous act!

You know we can read your timeline right?
You keep berating Jews because we don’t accept your theological framing *when considering Judaism*
We’re not arguing that you’re theologically wrong (in your
context) we’re saying not accepting that Jews have their own, incompatible, context is dickish

Sure.
And if you’re going to prance around berating Jews you need to accept that regardless of your personal theology you’re going to get zero mileage out of telling us you worship the Jewish god. Because we don’t agree with you, if we did we’d be Christians.

Man…
I’d tell you to hold up a mirror, but the metaphor would be lost on you.
I’ll settle for asking you to try to form a cogent thought.

Nah bud, it has nothing to do with a Christian responding. You’re just being an unpleasant asshole.
If you want a different reaction, don’t be a condescending dick 🤷♂️

There are worse types of people to encounter on social media: race scientists, nazis (original & new fresh taste), all types of bespoke bigots
But there is no type I find more annoying than ‘polite’ Christians who get their rocks of bothering Jews because we have the temerity to say “no thank you”

I’d rather not have to use my limited PTO to cover my holidays…
Having to take off Christmas and Easter are useless to me and I’m not a fucking grump just because I don’t say thank you.

Consistency dumbass, can you maintain it?
Your opening statement was: hating small talk is just being self-centred (para)
When people said why that wasn’t so, you changed to arguing the precise definition of shunning
Waste of time and space

They didn’t clarify that.
You were a pedantic asshole.
The dictionary definition doesn’t change the fact that NNT people are saying that small talk is an activity that often leads to negative social outcomes and therefore *they do not like small talk*

There are people with lived experiences who are telling you otherwise.
Are you autistic? If you’re not, how can you possibly say that they’re misinterpreting their lived experiences?
I’m asking before I call you a fucking idiot and write you off as a pig headed waste of time
