i agree that he did not deserve being stabbed, but that doesn't mean i feel particularly sympathetic towards him. there's a difference there -- maybe not for you, but for me.

or, you know, what samsally said.

That’s not quite what I meant. Were you in a bad situation you didn’t deserve, wouldn’t you hope the people around you would be sympathetic to your plight? Sometimes it’s a hard thing to do but understanding someone else’s pain can be the best thing you can do for them.

*shrug*

I can’t make you feel sympathy for someone, and I’m probably being hypocritical as there are people I’ve found it hard to sympathise with, but I think you kinda have to try.

Bah, do not bring up your real-world moral philosophies in this grandly hilarious event.

Oh man, nowadays everyone is either retarded or jaded. It's no fun!

Forget moral and ethical questions, feelings and all that bullshit. Have fun! Do what you want, if someone disagrees do what you see fit to them. Life's a ride that you have to enjoy, otherwise, why bother living? If you wanna work hard, work hard, if you wanna criticize, criticize, if you wanna be jaded or retarded, be jaded or retarded, as long as you enjoy it while it lasts.

Do what makes you happy, although I'd be wary of any consequences that might interfere with your happiness later.

Whatever word you have to use to excuse yourself. You're still selfish and irresponsible.

I actually didn't try to excuse myself for my irresponsibility. I was just stating what I was.

And I'm not really taking pleasure from the painful side of this news article. I'm actually focusing more on the comical points of it.

And damn you, Marik! You've turned away my brilliant philosophies, oh doom shall befall me! I have no choice but to change my happy-go lucky days in the hopes that I do not die at the hands of your clever speech.

I guess you could say I'm an optimistic hedonist, since I find pleasure in almost anything.
