I didn't get any mockery from you directly, no. I have a bit of a sarcastic or overly dramatic flair from time to time, so I do apologize if it came across as aggravated or anything.
I think the most empathetic thing to do for all parties would be to repair the wall. Then no one has to relive this obvious mistake. I'm merely making a case for extending empathy rather than judgement.
For what its worth, yeah, you can be scared of someone who has broken a wall. People react to things differently, I'm not going to say you're not allowed to, and would quite prefer everyone be treated with respect and empathy. Honestly, though- is having a terror response to a simple broken wall with no context ANY better than (this is from another comment in the thread, I know these aren't your words) having an anger response to losing at fantasy football?
Edit: ooooh I did say let's not extend mockery. That was directed at the meme in general, the building mgmt mocking the situation rather than just fixing it.
Gotcha, I hear you. I didn't mean that seeing the wall without context is normal to have a terror response to, either, but I think we're in agreement otherwise. Tear down the walls by repairing the wall :P
Agreed! Good chat with you, I enjoy these kinds of conversations, at least with reasonable people hahah. Take care, friend.
