"I think you are insane"

There is a certain person here on Mylot who is so crazy and nonsensical that I cannot bear to read the discussions any longer. Furthermore, when this person replies to a discussion, I just skip it. When I do see a discussion by this person, I just want to say, "Find a good shrink" and leave it at that. I know there are a few of you who are thinking that I am speaking of you. I might be.
So...is there any person here or in life, besides me, that you just can't stomach listening to them speak because they sound insane?

If you don't like the person you don't have to answer there discussions. I was like this with this one person here. they would flood my box with topics, I am glad Mylot changed the layout. because now you can answer anyone of your friends topics if you chose to.

hi cyntrow well I must say you have a lot of courage to'
make a statement like that. But anyone can be brave when
you are hiding behind a computer, and not face to face
with us. No I dont think you are speaking to me, as I have'
never seen one of your discussions before. I think I am
a pretty sane, sensible person.there are a few on here
who put some way out ideas, but if you are intelligent
'enough you will see they are funning you, and are not
crazy or insane either. No I havent met anyone here who I
thinks sounds insane, or in real life either. My friends
are just average run of the mill everday people. If you
dont like this particular person or their discussion, why
yell about it, just skip it and go on to what you do like?
What do you want from the rest of us?

hi no its nothing about you, just what you said seemed'awfuly 'harsh and super critical. I have
met a few whom were different but then i came'to
realize that far from being insane they were really
brilliant but full of fun and sarcasm, and you know
after hearing so many of our woes, its sort of fun
to laught at something. sorry if I upset you.Iam elderly
and have learned not to judge others as I am usually'wrong
and i hate being judged too.

Hi Cyntrow, I actually have quite a lot of compassion for those that are truly mentally ill and especially those that at least are trying to get help. What I really have a problem with and I see it on here from a few is the narrow-minded,judgemental bigots.

No, I'm not talking about truly mentally ill people. I'm talking about people who write novels containing few if any facts and a whole crap load of propoganda and they have no clue about the real world beyond their newsletters and propogandized emails.

I kind of knew you weren't talking about those that were really mentally ill. I was tongue in cheek trying to bring out that point. I think I may know who you are talking about but not sure. I just try to ignore. He/She for whatever reason is stuck in their ways and nothing you or I could say is going to change that. The more you try to...the more you'll argue with him/her. Ya, I agree, it is so irritating. I'll state my opinon but when I see the response...i know it is useless to argue. And responding to discussions...I may read them ....pretty much just pass them by. I try to get along with everyone here and there are only a couple of regulars that I steer clear of....I chalk it up to personality conflict rather than say they are wrong.

I think most of us have run into people like that in our lives, either in real life or on the net somewhere.
I just ignore them. I don't believe in feeding into their particular craziness or insanity or stupidity or whatever. It works for me.

I would say just don't answer the topic. You don't have to answer. And if it is a friend, then delete them.

ok, I just wanna know...are you talking about me? I cant stand many people really, mostly those pretending to own the world and its wisdom. I cant stand people patronising me or others, looking down on people, being full of themselves. And I do let them know that in my eyes they worth nothing and it doesnt matter how educated or rich they might be or how well known to others, I just dont give a sh*t About them.
Im not talking about people here on mylot I havent been around that long, though I did notice some weirdos on here too.

LOL
You cant be talking about yourself, because you cant skip your own answers and topic lol But you can be frustrated by yourself that could be true.
I think its a general thing and yes we do get that way every once in a while. Its not a bad thing it keeps us on the surface ;)

There are quite a few people here who might fall into that category. Luckily they probably don't live too close to me or I'd be worried :)
I just ignore them for the most part.

OMG, I know exactly where you are. It's not me, but it might be one of my other personalities. LOL
PS, that doesn't mean that I am another person on mylot. It just means that I might be another person in my head and that is a joke. This isn't directed at you, reiny, but for people who might have it in for me.

I must admit, I tend to be very direct and sometimes it borders on confrontational, so I'm not so sane myself. But this person is someone who believes everything they read and they spread propoganda as though it were fact. Their posts are novels, but when countered, they refuse to look at anything that their "friends" haven't told them is truth. THe person is paranoid and believes that undesirables are taking over the earth, because they receieved a newsletter or email telling them so.

I have not been on here much so I haven't run into crazies...but a long time ago there was one that was very combative and made no sense and that one disappeared from
myLot.
Who annoys me most in life? Three initials..G.W.B.

I haven't met anyone on here that I think is insane. I have met some who are always negative and confrontational. I do the same, just skip over their replies and don't participate in their discussions.

I try not to let those kind of people bother me. I do my best to ignore them, and thanks to my scorpio tendencies, it's getting easier and easier all the time. lol.
I've been sitting here for a few minutes trying to think of anyone who I have tuned out in the recent past, and for the life of me I can't come up with any. I obviously do a great job at tuning them out.

I haven't met one here yet, but on about.com there are a few. There we have the option of using ignore button so I never see the posts of those who bug me.

I haven't met anyone like that on MyLot, I have met a few in real life. I stay away from them I have a few at work too, that I just turn my head the other way when I see them coming. They have nothing better to do than to make your life miserable. I refuse to go out that way.
Don't let these people get the best of you. If you do then they will win. I never let them know how I feel and I refuse to stoop to their level.
Hope things get better for you here.

Then again maybe it is just a deficiency, you know they can't help themselves. They are one of those people who actually keep tinfoil stocked up so they can make hates.
Ah sh!t was that my inside voice? Dang. My edit button isn't working to well these days.

Me too. My edit button seems to be not working well. My inside voice, you know the one that makes all kind of pithy remarks not for public consumption seems to be on the blink and out of my mouth or out of the end of my finger tips they come.
Ah well that might explain the rapid decline of that little ole star.
Wah, people don't like me. Waah I am crushed. I am decimated by my lack of popularity. I should get that dang edit button corrected or not.
Maybe I should just go for the no edit and oh well.

Hello cyntrow, I wonder if it is me because if it is I would like your recommendation. Sometimes person does has a problem and need genuine help so if it is too be too shy not to tell me the truth.

I agree. We disagreed on a post. YOu are your views I have mine. Some of my best friends in life and here are people that disagree with me about almost everything. That doesn't make either of us crazy. It's just a difference and differences make the world go round. I'll see you again, I'm sure. Whether we agree or not, I don't see you as a nutcase. LOL

Well, at first I thought I knew exactly who you meant, but the bit about the newsletters threw me. Of course since I never even bother reading the posts from the one I thought you meant, it might well be newsletters he/she is rabbiting on about.
There are several whose political philosophy is to the extreme right of Ghengis Khan, and those I would cheerfully put up against a wall and shoot lol, but that's probably not what you're getting at.

It's probably the same person. Her latest discussions are political and she seems very afraid(paranoid). I have tried to engage this person in dialogue a time or two. A person doesn't have to agree with me to be a friend to me, but I was left crosseyed by her reply. I gave up, and I normally don't give up on a person so quickly.
