RE: THE LOST ART OF MAKING COMMENTS ON STEEMIT - FRIENDS FOREVER ALL YOUR UPVOTES, OKAY?

in #comments7 years ago (edited)

I don't think you should assume anyones intent. In fact that in itself is truly judgemental and your own form of disillusionment regarding someones character. Perhaps some of these comments are humorous yet dismal reflections of reality.

Poverty and education is something we all should be thinking about. We can't deny that their is a gap. Sometimes it is kinda funny.... if it doesn't at the same time make you feel a little helpless to change anything. I think the best humor is a bitter satire about the world, perhaps I enjoy comedy that the average man can relate to. The unspoken joke that is merely a sad commentary on the world around us. So often even that is censored, even when it is but a mere parody.

I am glad that there are people like you in the world, believe me. Just as I am glad there are people in the world who I can be open and honest with. Honesty is a hard thing to swallow especailly when it is wrapped up in spicy jokes.

Anyways...
Not my cross. I'm just here for the laughs. You know....?

Hello! I have not followed everything you said but it sounds so good I would like you to give me another chance!

To be clear - in the learning of another language - there is humor! We will all make mistakes and when I teach I try to use laughter positively. I also embarrass myself plenty by trying to learn and speak the language of those that I am teaching, thus showing them that making mistakes and laughing about it is good and healthy way to learn!

Also for clarification - this 'type of comment' that this particular article is referring to is not necessarily about bad english. I see now that are saying bot-spinners not second language speakers to refer to the odd construction of language. I think that I showed with my above comment to this post that it is possible to be completely irrelevant of the topic in perfectly eloquent english.

In the end, I use steemit to give me a wide variety of creative challenges, to give me an excuse to write, interact and let my creative juices flow! So here I am, spinning irrelevant copy-pasteable comments with all of you ;p
