There are few absolutes in life that I can think of, offhand, but one that I'm relatively sure about concerns opinions.
The way I understand it, an opinion is a personal belief or judgment that is not founded on proof or certainty. A feeling. We're all wayyyy up to speed on feelings, at least in this country, right?
My opinions doesn't have to be your opinion. Me telling you my opinion is simply that: telling you. I'm usually not of the opinion that opinions can be right or wrong.
I just don't understand how one person can get angry at another based on said person's opinion. (by the way, is it bad sytnax to italicize a period at the end of a sentence?)unless maybe that person's opinion is that you are an idiot maybe. Then your feelings are hurt, and well, I just don't want to get into that circle of hell, ok?
Anyway, I just don't get it. We ask people to express their feelings, and then get mad at them for those feelings if they don't fit our profile too well. (is welly an adverb?)
My opinion for tonight is that "Sex and the City" sucks as much in the re-runs as it did in the first run. Oh, and Ron Paul will never, ever be the President of the United States.
Bye now.
You know what they say about opinions eh?
ReplyDeleteMy opinion is that we couldn't be more fabulous, Lippy! :)

ReplyDeleteKnow anyone?
; )
My opinion is thank God we all dont have the same opinion. If we did, wouldn't this world be extremely boring?

I adhere to the old maxium, friends agree to disagree. We would be a dire, boring bunch wouldn't we if we all agreed on the same principles all the time. Just MY humble opinion *winks*. And I'm the last person to ask a grammar question of. I would fail miserably. (Hugs)Indigo
ReplyDeleteNever watched a single episode of Sex in the City. So I have no opinion :o)
ReplyDeleteI've always considered myself to be pretty easygoing... "To each his/her own", "Live and let live" etc... I APPRECIATE other people's opinions because they give me something to ponder that I may not have even considered before.
ReplyDeleteI love Sex in the City... Oh, and the show isn't half bad, either.
;oP
My opinion, is your opinion is funny as hell lol
ReplyDeleteYou're a rare one. Really. So many times I say something to the effect of "well I understand that but do you understand what I mean about..." and then have someone getting mad at me because they think I'm arguing when I'm only expression my opinion. I always understand and respect people's opinions, and I ask for that in return. I think I can count on one hand the number of people in my life that are able to do that.
Oh well, maybe it'll change someday. Maybe we'll all realize it doesn't help to make each other angry.
Maybe someone will figure out how to nail jello to a tree and herd cats too. lol
Never watched Sex in the City, so no opinions on that from me.
ReplyDeleteI love to listen to other peoples opinions and think about what they see that I don't. Maybe it'll change mine.
But then again, I'm a Libra and we have that whole tip the scales thing going on.
