“Ya know, I learned something today…”  That has to be one of my favorite recurring lines on the TV show South Park.  Throughout my life I’ve lived for one thing, learning something new each day.  Today, I learned about how one can incense another over one single word.  I was reading an email and just got totally pissed off.  If you’ve been listening to the podcast for a while you would know that it takes a lot for me to get hurt by words.  Sure, I get angry at times and once in a while enraged, but I rarely, if ever, get pissed off.

Now, I understand that cultural differences can be to blame for miscommunication.  I also know that in some societies it is “OK” to treat others like shit.  When this becomes a serial habit, one starts to wonder.  Am I being treated like crap on purpose?  Do not people think that words may hurt others?  If not, is that person considered a sociopath?  Well, asshole may be a more appropriate term.  Anyway, think before you speak.  People have feelings.  Don’t praise others in once sentence and bash others in the next.  And that, is what I learned today.
