  1. I see that somebody woke up without their sense of humor this morning.
  2. I'm starting to think that virtue signaling at a time like this is pathetic.
  3. Down her back? It was razor stubble, on her face.
  4. Yes, I can see that many interpret it as insensitive. That is not my intention. Thank you for your explanation.
  5. The earthquake left an 'impression' on me, therefore it was 'impressive'. I don't need your help deciding on an appropriate adjective to describe my thoughts and feelings. I agree that the event was 'devastating' and 'catastrophic', and that leaves an impression on me. I would not agree to 'unfathomable'. None of your descriptors describe exactly how I feel. To each there own.
  6. Not agreeing with the thought process is one thing, but being incapable of at least understanding it only demonstrates that your mind is closed or it is shallow. Here's an analogy for your clarification: Do you find Mount Everest impressive? I think most people do, even though over 300 have died on the mountain and around 200 bodies are still up there. I feel for the fallen and their families, but am still very impressed by that mountain with no disrespect intended.
  7. Imagine Storm Chasers following a tornado. They're excited, adrenaline pumping, enjoying the risk and adventure, maybe cheering the tornado on. At the same time they are aware that it could cause damage and death, and they feel sympathy for that. Some people are capable of feeling more than one emotion at the same time. Other people have tunnel-vision emotions, and disapprove of anyone different than them. Some can root for both the lion and the zebra at the same time. Some can appreciate the awesome power of an earthquake, and the excitement of their own personal experience, while also feeling sympathy for those impacted.
  8. My girlfriend was sitting on the can taking a dump when it happened. I know what she's capable of, and am pretty sure she is at fault.
