        Me too. I wonder. Using direct quotes and not interpretations, can you say why?

            How so? If I’m in a meeting, I give my peers the attention that I would want them to give me.

            Is this a bad thing?

              Good on you for having the supernatural ability of arbitrarily assigning how much attention you want to give to something!

              Unfortunately, that’s not how regular human brains work.

                Ahh yes. The golden rule. Too much for “regular humans.” That explains a lot about how the world works.

                  I mean, if you think that’s so easy you should go into psychiatry. You could singlehandedly solve ADHD, OCD, PTSD and a plethora of other mental disorders just by finding a way for the human brain to “place attention where you want it to be”.

                    I get that you are determined to put me down because reversing course now would make you wrong, and you’d rather block your ears than ever admit you might have punched the wrong person—but, to assume that people not paying attention in a meeting have an actual, diagnosable, “mental disorder” is really rude to the people who actually do live with those problems.

                    You really should be ashamed of yourself. Ignoring your peers. Criticizing people who want you to treat others well. Throwing around “mental disorders” with reckless abandon.

                    In this entire thread I’ve not called anyone a name, but you sir or madam, have earned it. You are an asshole.

                    Goodbye.

              It’s pretty clear from this thread that people are telling you you’re an asshole based on how you treat other people, directly reflected by your first couple of comments in the chain. To ignore your own earlier behavior and instead goad an argument is simply more evidence that you’re the type of person that generally sucks to work with.

                    You don’t like that I feel a person should give their peers the same respect that they would want from them.

                    Got it.
