I was talking about your feelings, but do you feel you have an aggressive personality? It was an attempt to understand your position, so far you've only deflected, attacked and dismissed the issue.. So I want to understand what your problem with it is. Do you feel women should toughen up?

Well cry me a river it's the same with white people going alone in black neighborhood, gey person walking in to biker bar etc. The point is you need to learn to handle your life. Posting weak videos of your problems is not the way to go. A woman walking down the street is the same as a gay man walking into a biker bar? ... hmm.. right.. You seem disproportionately angry towards this. I feel like you might be projecting some aggression towards other issues on to this one? Perhaps feminism in general?

Yeah the video could definitely have been better and some of the guys here are attacking that fact - and I do agree that most of the SJWs are overreacting, as always.. But from friends and Xs and my gf I do know that "normal" guys tend to do some crazy **** too... and that just because a girl is walking down the street alone, it's not an invitation to try and kiss her out of the blue (happens more often than you'd like to believe), grab her, yell at her, follow her, continue to solicit her after she clearly and polity refuses. This is what they are talking about and that's what they want to attack, but you have to attack the core of it - which is that the culture seems to think that if a girl walks alone and she's pretty, she asking for it. I'm sure this video just wanted to show what a girl simply walking from A to B can experience on a random day. The vast majority of our female friends live with this, in the same way we live with the random aggression from idiots.. But that doesn't mean we should be callous about it.

By all means go deal with them, we're more than enough people.. and we got this covered...

Exactly the same from my gf and she's very open to talking to strangers in general and loves meeting new people (as a bartender I guess that's a must). She's great at defusing situations, but have had some pretty strange encounters too from normal guys who was sure that simply cause they had a semi successful initiation in contact, it was an open invitation to a lot more. In general, it seems to be an issue that certainly does need a lot attention.. Situation awareness is apparently not a common trait. I know a handful of socionauts (as they would call themselves, or pickup artists for others) and I've seen that anything goes really - as long as you simply have situational awareness. Girls love being flirted with, but they hate being catcalled, it's as simple as that. This basically boils down to that most guys are embarrassingly bad at talking to women and are so bad that the women end up feeling harassed by it. Of course that's embarrassing to admit, so it's easier to blame the women for being prudish. Thought it was two different other guys saying those two things, sorry about that. To be fair though, he was already walking in that direction, he merely slowed down whilst talking to her, then went back up to his regular speed. Are we seeing the same thing? He's walking in silence beside her for 5 minutes.. while she looks awkwardly at him several times trying to signal that he's being extremely creepy.

He talks to her first, standing on the street of the right, then he follows her .. it even says in the subtitles "same guy".

I imagine it's annoying when you're in a hurry, people always greeting you and trying to stop you. But I have to say, a lot of those guys made me cringe, it's really creepy just walking beside her for 5 minutes .. why are people so bad at reading social ques? There are a lot of good ways to get people's attention if you really want it. Not just "hey girl!" - how are they even supposed to respond to that? Desperate guys do weird ****. Other than that, no saying "hi" or "have a nice evening" is not harassment, it's unwanted attention.. But I get that too from drunk people etc at night and calling it harassment is overreacting imo. edit: maybe we should include a "social interaction" course for young teenagers in school heh.. Seriously I wish I could show you guys some of the crazy stuff kids do in night clubs. My favorite was standing next to a guy who panicked and opened a girl with "hi,.. eh, before we continue you should know I have herpes..." Perhaps if we did that it would change "harassment" into "meh, he seems all right"..

It's an event bureau of sorts. We want to do tours for costumers coming in to Copenhagen showing entrepreneurial companies and start up environments. An alternative to the standard sight etc that get boring if you've been here on business before and is ready to see and meet some of the locals. Interestingly it's completely different from what I had envisioned myself doing, but I got hijacked into it by the producer of that "kissing for charity" video I shared with you guys earlier this year.. and well, life often goes in strange directions

That sucks, sorry to hear man. I'm getting ready for a sales pitch tomorrow - if it goes well it's the start of my company in earnest. Should be interesting.

Hmm, imagine having volo grumping in the corner of your wedding "dammit, all right, guess we are..." almost worth it.

Be a wookie?

It's a crazy film yeah it took me a few days to digest. But in between the existential angst, there are crumpets of hope

I don't know half of you half as well as I should like; and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve.. But let's stay on topic.

Dawn of The Planet of The Apes. Really liked the characters and the acting, but felt the overall plot was a little lacking and drawn out. Also the main villain started out great, but got a little too evil at the end - his motivation was sufficient in and on itself and he could have made a good anti-hero in response to just and mighty Caesar, who sees, hears and says no evil.

All the details are present in fashion throughout European history, just not in those particular combinations. The 19th century military style was nothing if not pompous though, so I'm sure they would approve. British Hussar (winter edition)

In business you have to, it creates a better work environment and you also spread the word so other companies can avoid them. With people around you it's obviously more complicated, but I would never suggest abandoning victims of abuse who themselves have turned abusers and I fail to see how you can conclude that from what I said? This guy we're talking about seems like a good old fashioned idiot though, which is why I approve of this social ostracization so he can experience the consequences of acting like an idiot in public.

Unfortunately we don't have a legal system that can judge individual emotions on a case by case basis. What makes you certain that it's a possibility? his proximity? If so do you think that the person in question would've potentially killed Gaben if he had simply been close enough? And do we then judge the seriousness of the statement only by whether or not the person has the means to carry out the threat in the moment of making it? What are the criteria here for when the possibility of that threat being a possibility and how do we, legally, take this into account to protect the individuals involved? I think we can agree it would be irresponsible to simply adopt a "we don't care" approach to threats in general right? I would argue it's a lot easier, cheaper (and safer for everyone) to simply curtail this by making statements like that carry weight by default and actions always be taken. Not necessarily legal action, simply terminating contact like here is sufficient in cases like this. Again, what you say in your home (the 99% of them) is irrelevant. It's what you say in a public forum with witnesses, I care about. Out of those I doubt the vast majority are irrelevant, you yourself seemed to think there was a possibility of the threat being carried out when it was in public and to your face. Interesting, do you feel that kind of outward aggression is out of place? Hmm and I've never received a single one - I wonder if that's relevant to this discussion in some way... You never raised that point to me, but yes a lot of people certainly are... And while it's certainly a shame that consumers are affected, the fault still lies with the developer here imo. And even if I wanted to buy the game, I would not fault Steam for it. I too would not do business with a guy like that. Now the problem seems to be correcting itself however, the guy has been ostracized and the company is trying to get those affected to rally behind them to correct it - thereby proving (as they should) that they are more mature now. Seems like a perfectly reasonable series of events, where the affected people are responding, learning and adapting. Also you ignored my point on whether or not you think an aggressive environment is a more relaxed environment?

Actually Steam did the logic deescalation, they terminated the contact. That's exactly how you deal with this kind of behavior and keep aggression from escalating. In essence it was. So how would you respond to an angry "I'll kill you!" face to face then? A relaxed attitude is a lovely byproduct of safety, which comes from social understanding - something people have pointed out several times. In social situations where this behavior is expected, then it won't cause issues. But again, I seriously doubt the majority would freely choose to live in a society in which verbal threats and aggression was common place versus a place where people respectfully addressed one another and aired their grievances in a civil tone. That doesn't create a relaxed attitude, quite the opposite in fact. And why suburban ghettos feel a lot less safe to go through, even though you know the chance of getting mugged (when you understand the social codes) are near zero. You're essentially saying that constant outspoken aggression is a more relaxed environment - and that simply doesn't compute with me. Come to Copenhagen and navigate our traffic for 9 hours vs Athens and tell me you feel much more relaxed and stress free in Greece.

It's not about intent it's about the kind of conduct we want our fellow citizens to uphold. Who wants a situation where it's perfectly ok to throw around death threats "for the lulz"? Are you ok with a random stranger you slightly pissed off coming up to you and screaming in your face that he's going to kill you? and.. giving how you think Valve should've reacted, you simply have to take this abuse with a smile, since you know - no malice was intended, just venting some frustration. I think it's fair to expect that, while in a public forum - we behave respectfully and responsibly towards one another. It's makes for far less frictions and better moods all around. Edit: but to be clear, no one here is arguing against being allowed to be frustrated, angry and disappointed and venting those emotions. It's just that saying "Gabe, you really screwed me over here, that's not ******** all right!!" is a lot more constructive than "I'll kill you!". And essentially also why we try to teach kid how to deescalate conflicts rather than escalate them.

That would be a cool costume - hmm - what to do as a bald guy though. Also slightly freaked out. It's 20 min past midnight and I live next door to a nursery/kindergarden (yes do they evacuate the kids from the ajoirning room from time to time, I do try to behave though... really!) ... aaaanyway, there's a soft melody coming from in there. Childish like, on a xylophone - kling klang kling klang -pause- kling klang kling. I'm sure it's haunted, how do I exorcise kid demons?

Why not an eagle, falcon or owl - human eyes are pretty shoddy from what I hear.

It's not as much punishment as it's backlash, he's not in jail - he's being hurt financially and socially. This is basic rehabilitation - you do stupid **** that dangers the social cohesion, you get excluded and have a time out to think about what you did. No prison or freedom infringements, just good old social stigma.
