Q: Inability to cope with everyone

user8979192This issue is more of an intra-personal problem. Recently, I realized that I began procrastinating very often with everything I do.

Q: How To Have Better Outcome After Speaking on the Phone

Artie LadieI have anxiety using the phone to ask for information. Somehow I end up forgetting something and then have to make at least another call. Or I get rude service (which I don't have time to complain about) I'm not even sure how to frame this question. Bottom line, I wish to feel comfortable usin...

Q: How to make friends in an online math community (AoPS)

Alex K ChenI am from a school in a city in Dallas, Texas and an math olympiad enthusiast, but unfortunately no friend of mine in my school/city is really interested in maths. And going to any math club is not feasible for me due to I having a weird timing slot. So I did what most math olympiad enthusiasts ...

Q: How do I ask my friends to stop asking me to hang out?

MilinaI have a two friends. Often, they phone me asking if I want to hang out. The times I have done so, I feel that it isn't fun. We don't seem to share any hobbies/interests. When they ask, I (one of these) tell them that I am being somewhere else, and can't come (and it's true when I do) tell them...

Q: How do I have my parents not asking me what I'm doing and whom I am being with when going out?

MilinaWhen I want to hang out with friends, my parents always ask questions like "Who/whom are you going to be with?" "Where are you going to be?" et.c. I feel very uncomfortable telling them about my personal life. When I say I don't want to tell them, they say that they want to ...

A: Does Stack Exchange really want to conflate newbies with women/people of color?

Cindy MeisterI've been reading these discussions about rudeness, being welcoming (or not) and possible discrimination for some time now, without voicing my opinion. The point has come where I have to have my say: My involvement with programming goes back 45 years, although I haven't been actively involved th...

I guess this explains what I wanted to say, which is probably what you wanted to say too, better than I could say it
Almost as awesome as my posts
 
@M.A.R.ಠ_ಠ Falls into the same traps of thinking that being nice is the same as lowering quality though
SO (presumably) doesn't need to 'lower standards', it just needs to be a pleasant place for everyone

@Mithrandir24601 I don't think it's talking about the blog post, but the fire and ashes on meta
And smoke
And that sometimes pleasing smell
IMHO, being concise and to the point will always be interpreted as rude at one time or another, and that's one part of the comment culture you can never change
Hell, I sometimes get yelled at by the newbies we're trying to be welcoming to for linking site policies and with lots of sugarcoating too
Pleasant. Pleasant smell. Pleasing is weird, Mr. Mobile
