The Internet and Feelings

The logic is that anonymous people shouldn't be able to say anything that can get you upset. That's not entirely true because we've seen/heard people meet up to fight. People committing suicide, crying over comments. This is supposed to be an escape from the everyday bs.
 
my .02, saying someone caught feelings is the default response for someone who cant offer an intelligent rebuttal

you know they have caught said feelings when names get called

and miss me with the "thats how i argue" shit

nah nigga...maybe with somebody who got the vocabulary of a 4th grader, but if you are around like minded people, in similar age ranges, you should be able to articulate yourself better than "bitch nigga" or something when you smell defeat

im not saying you cant be passionate about a particular subject, but its usually the people who catch the most feelings are often the ones saying other people caught them
 
Catching feelings on the net during a discussion/debate/roast session = “But you cant whoop my ass tho” in real life during a discussion/debate/roast session

:shrug3:

But that's a legitimate way out tho lol
 
I think it's an older internet thing where people where supper anonymous on this shit. No profile pictures, no locations, no personal information.
No not so much now, I know a lot of us have each other on social media accounts and/or have meet each other in real life.

But catching feelings to the point where you're doing dumb shit or not making sense shall and should be always frowned upon irl and online
 
I don’t know if we discussed this already but whatever. I’m over here with a brain full of questions.

Why is it frowned upon to show feelings via the Internet? Are we not real people with real feelings behind a screen? WHO gets to decide whether it is right or wrong for you to feel some way from what people on the Internet say about or two you?

So just because it’s the Internet, someone can’t get mad about what someone said or are they only allowed to be mad if it’s said in person?

I can dig it but there is a difference in feelings and bitchassness on the internet.. and in person.

there a lot of bitchassness alot of situations started by bitchassness because of individuals. sensitivity and fragile egos..

"feelings" ,"catching feelings"and the often used female term in my feelings are just buzzwords ...
 
Is that what he was doing? I wasn’t catching on.
Nah i actually wasn’t, I was gone speak on something but after i made the post I thought about how redundant the whole thing was and thought better of it. Plus I actually felt it would have derailed a good thread. I’m not always tryna finesse people.
 
It depends. I mean personally idk anybody on here so idk how it can get to the point where i'd get in my feelings in the first place.

So if u got that reaction outta me n dont even know personal shit about me then i deserve the feeling button bc i know for a fact on a regular day it aint that deep on the innanets so i must be trippin.
 
people catch feelings because they're competitive and argumentative,

they hate to lose arguments, and want to get their way or have the final say in every exchange...


when that's threatened, they passionately try to regain control, and sometimes do illogical shit due to a buildup of emotion...


basically....

u gotta relax..
 
Its weird to ME because ultimately these are just words on a screen-to me. I dont know anyone here and dont really have a desire to really get to "know" anyone online. And since that's how I move I have very little feelings or care what people i dont know say. With that said I totally understand how people get invested in boards like this (ive been thoroughly entertained since I joined). So, while I can't relate totally with those who "feel some type of way" about the shit people post..I think I understand. Btw I think this is a fascinating topic from a psychological perspective. Props to tweety on this thread
 
What are you catching feelings over? If you do feel a way why not just log off and delete the problem? Once you post online you have to take the critism aswell as the compliments.
 
I like talking shit, it's not much that makes me mad especially online. I've been on the internet since AOL 4.0 days.

What annoys me though is when I get under someone's skin and they go "you mad" uh, no I'm not but you are lol.

I used to not like getting negative reactions, but the reality is that it's unrealistic to expect everthing you say to be liked by evrybody.
