Status: offline 		Sometimes we tend to get angry at something or someone when we don't always know the full story or perhaps no one offers some kind of reasonable view for us to atleast get an objective view thus creating an incredibly narrow minded reasoning.

Here (being a Demon) i will attemp to play 'Devils Advocate', sit with me and tell me whats eating away at you, perhaps we can accomplish something productive. This is NOT an attempt at counselling you but of relieving or lightening your load.

Status: offline 		i get pissed me off at myself when i stop myself from voicing my honest opinion because i know that people will not agree with me or get offended... half of me says "Phuck PC", while the other half cares what everyone else thinks

Status: offline 		Have you ever tried to re-phrase your words to something more 3rd person so they arent intentionally aimed at a specific person? The aim of any message board or forum is to debate and harvest different ideas, i feel something worse than not voicing your views is to sit in silence...this generally leads to the making of spree killers! I feel the same way as you and on occasions stop myself mid-rant from sending something that i KNOW will cause offence, the only way around it is to free-write then re-read before you send, just changing one or two words can get your point across without inciting or rather being offensive. COME ON MAN SAY WHAT YOU MEAN!

Status: offline 		the above post (the need for the edit was planned when i first posted, hehe) was entirely for the purpose of illustrating your point, thanks for the advice/suggestion

by the way i have no opinion on your ass, but it does seem to give many ladies some pleasure

I feel much better now !.

Status: offline 		it means to pose the opposing view in a debate in order to allow the other side in the debate to flesh out their side... at least that's how i always took it...

now i go to look it up...

Main Entry: devil's advocate
Function: noun
Etymology: translation of New Latin advocatus diaboli
1 : a Roman Catholic official whose duty is to examine critically the evidence on which a demand for beatification or canonization rests
2 : a person who champions the less accepted cause for the sake of argument
http://www.m-w.com/dictionary/devil's%20advocate

edited to add, i wonder if seeksfemslave's use of "ph" in "phed up" was as intentional as my my "ph" in "Phuck PC", and if it were, what his purpose was... mine was that i prefer not to use foul language but sometimes it's a great way to make a point, so in print i compromise by shifting the spelling

ps: is it just me or is this one of the world's fast degrading thread

Status: offline 		I just did! A Devils Advocate is someone who plays 'enemy' or rather is the object of your initial 'argument' in order to provide some form of opinion against what your rant or belief is.

Status: offline 		Number 2 definition in post 10  is the common usage meaning with the addition that  the Devils Advocate  usually  exposes the weaknesses in or ensures understanding of the opposing view by asking the opposer to express the view opposed to theirs. Got that lol
I think therefore I am. Nothing to do with anything, I just threw that in

Sepia Ass wants to "help" people who are angry.
Some time in the future he may or may not  play the Devils Advocate.

Status: offline 		Oh im very good at Devil's Advocate because I am objective (when i want to be), mr Sepia Ass here can be very opinionated but also has a broad and open mind, I do feel in my view the only way to go forward if you hit at issue is to argue for and against, if you choose not to listen you can never overcome.

Status: offline 		not in reply to the OP, but to the title of the thread:

the less than attractive (i speak of attractive in terms of the common ideal) tend to make better lovers and partners, due to a desire to please and appreciation or gratitude that someone has given them something that they have found through experience that they are not worthy of
