Why is it people who yell "Snowflake" seem to be the most sensitive of all?

Sorry Leon. I can't help myself. Please don't delete my account.

I loathe this "snowflake" "insult" that gets tossed around. Snowflakes are beautiful, unique, and sensitive. None of those are bad qualities in a human being.

Yeah, because a lot of good has happened in the world due to insensitive, "thick-skinned" people. Oh, and of course lots of trouble-free kids!

Isn't the current crop of kids descended from flower child hippies who eventually became helicopter parents, i.e. really sensitive types all?

Also, these things are not entirely the same...one can be thick-skinned and still acknowledge their sensitivity as a human being toward others. I would argue that one who describes themself as thick-skinned (denoting that one is able to deflect or brush off the insensivity of others) proves that they are, in fact, quite sensitive.

Whilst we are amused at the feeble efforts at humor about deceased or merely wussy former posters, as members of both classes, we shall not hesitate to add anyone posting about us to the Archive defamation litigation. In the meantime we shall wish for your demise.

Nah, I don't miss that.

Hmmmm. What did Bruce do? Constantly talk up his own stuff with a view to getting a higher price?
