There are lots of emoji that have gone away over the years. I’m pretty sure there used to be one of the emoji face tapping a belly-up horse with a twig (you know, beat a dead horse)I want to know WHICH BAGS CAUSED THE FIGHTS???
Maybe we should start a thread about that: which bags people are most passionate about and would defend tooth & nail!
P.S. why don’t I have the poking emoji??
I wish I had that one. I’ve no place to use it, it’s just funny..
At any rate, I’m glad this thread has lasted. I think what sends them spiraling isn’t when people bring it on themselves by choosing the path of greatest insult.
They can’t say ‘I don’t see what people see in the XZ bag because to me it’s too shapeless and all the colors are muddy and the hardware is comically too big, etc’ but RATHER they decide to say ‘I don’t see what people see in the XZ bag because I’ve never seen anyone with it who wasn’t probably working the corner and the colors are all for tacky people and no one who had any taste wouldn’t think that hardware is stupid looking’.
THAT kind of critique, even I would take unkindly, and I love threads like this. Of course she’s offended, you just insinuated she is a classless low-rent streetwalker!
I like that variety exists in the world and that means there’s magnificent wild stallions AND wet brown sewer rats.
Everything is a little bit awesome, somewhere deep down. Even wet brown sewer rats, who if you look with a detached eye, are amazing; they bond strongly with their families and are crazy smart; dog smart. When I see that, even though I don’t want rats in our buildings and stuff, I don’t hate rats. The universe or God or WHATEVER made rats right along with the wild stallions.
So too someone says something here in defense of ‘their’ bag and then I CAN SEE IT TOO SUDDENLY. I just needed to be detached for a minute. Wow, I never thought of that, thank you! I still wouldn’t buy one, but now I get why YOU did, and I think differently now about the XZ bag. Thank you, so-and-so.
