Title: DU Psych Index - 09/23/2010
Post by: BadCat on September 23, 2010, 07:52:23 PM
ANGER

DIRTY WORDS

EMOTION

SADNESS

OPTIMISM

It's been interesting for the DUmmies lately.

Lots of highs and lows in their fragile emotional states.

Wonder what got into the Lounge Lizard DUmmies about three days ago? 
(Shell Beau perhaps?)  Way to go girl!

Notice the correlation of the Lounge Lizards anger with the increase in Dirty Words, a drop in Positive Emotion and a rise in Sadness.

Do the highs and lows have to do with the Feingold polling that came out?

But their misery usually means good news for the country, so...

Oddly enough, I think there was much less anger when Bush was president.

And yes there may have been a small contribution on my part to the anger/cursing/sadness in the lounge. Moooooooooooooooo!!!!!  :-)

I'm seeing an inverse relationship between the blue and yellow lines.    LBN is Late Breaking News, I assume, so is LNG lounge?  Maybe the angry people switch between the forum en masse.

One has to remember that the Bush administration gave them a common enemy. They no longer have that, so, now they have splintered over a finding a new scapegoat - and that has created some of the most intense lib-on-lib violence I have ever witnessed over there.

A truly excellent deduction........

Without an opposition focus for their angst, they are caught between their natural misery, and the DU rules against ANY criticism of the administration.......essentially the proverbrial "rock and a hard place"......

It's truly hilarious to watch.

Abosulutely. While one over there could totally hate on Bush, that doesn't go the same for Obama, even if many feel the same about him. It has caused much friction. There are the Obama lovers, haters and the in-between. It has definitely caused a split. No common enemy anymore.

I remember saying that if Obama was elected, they would splinter and turn on one another.

I'll never understand the primitives...I have bad days when I just want to bite everybody's head off, days when all I want to do is sit and cry. But they seem to love bein miserable. They don't seem to be able to get any joy or happiness out of anything.

^ Socialism in a nutshell. Everything is a zero-sum game. If you're happy, it's because someone else isn't. If you're rich, it's because someone else isn't. If you're satisfied and are valued, it's because someone else isn't.

That's just stupid....If ya have more money than me, don't mean you "took my share". It just means you're smarter, work harder,or are luckier than I am.
Maybe it's just somethin(understandin the DUmmies) I really shouldn't worry about now.

Honestly Ree, its not worth worrying about.

The primitives behave in ways contrary to human nature. In general, normal people strive to be happy, healthy, and they seek to have a productive and meaningful life. Sure, there are ups and downs but we learn to adapt, and move on.

Not the primitives.

They exist in a state of depression, and work to spread their angst to everyone else. They find happiness in nothing, save for the momentary high they get for doing something in vengeance. Then its back to miseryville.

They don't discuss things like the good they did today, but instead discuss how their actions lead to another's pain.

They don't discuss how honest work earns an honest dollar, but instead discuss how they stuck it to 'da man'.

They don't value people based on what they stand for, or what they accomplished, but what they look like, how they vote and who they sleep with.

So Ree, don't worry about them. Just assume that the way you think and feel about things is the polar opposite of the way the majority of them think and feel, and then pay those concerns no further consideration.
