Quote: Badge @ May 30 2008, 12:15 AM BSTI think the sanest answer is it is only truly okay to hate oneself. Though one should then hate oneself for doing so.
I concur! (And do. Although not so much the latter half; I prefer to think of it as honesty.)
Your as nutty as Badge. But I think we found that out last night. If you spend your time hating yourself it's basically self-loathing. I'm not a fan of being happy and gay (oo err) all the time but if you can't like yourself for what you are who can?
I'm nuttier than a squirrel's fart.

A mentalist?
(I cut the closing 'you' out, as I assume that that's what you meant.)

But you should then hate yourself for hating yourself that you hate yourself.
You should of course hate anyone, but if you mean scorn, deride and abuse, then I would go for the Welsh. There are not enough of them for anyone to care what they think, and it is funny watching them get angry about it. Always pick on the little guy, it 's safest.

Correct and correct. Why the hell did I put that in? (Looks up mentalist just to check.....now is slightly worried.

Well I couldn't agree more. Whilst getting my army of ex-miners to dig out the foundations of your house.

Jeez, I'm going into Aaron pedantry here, but:
saying that the only person it is truly acceptable to hate is oneself does not mean that one by definition should hate oneself.
It's practically the same as saying one does not have the right to hate anybody else.
Maybe. But as we all know. Life 'aint like that. You're always likely to run into somebody who you really dislike so accept it.
