Some guys have not learned to Let It Go™.
It's a major attitude adjustment that is wonderful when it finally sinks in.
It took me years to discover it. When I did, it was like... not giving a shit, but in a positive way.
Not caring that someone was wrong on the internet. Not caring that they refuse to
acknowledge my valid points, or just see reason. Being able to shrug when they act like a smug asshοle,
and walk away when they toss some little potshot.
For some people, it will always feel like losing and failure to allow someone to get the last word,
to be wrong (or differently-right), or to let some tiny insult slide. They just automatically react with
little voluntary thought. Like someone lobs a grenade at them and says "catch!" and they just reach out
instead of running the other direction.
I feel sorry for people living with this damaged mindset, they don't realize how much it lowers their
quality of life away from the keyboard.
