I feel like the word "judgmental" gets a bad rap.

People use their internal logic to make judgments all the time. It's how decisions get made.

Instead of judgmental lets just call it what it is: being rude.

But one of the main definitions of judgmental is judging harshly. Maybe it doesn't make literal sense but you are waaaaaayyyyy too late to make the literal definition the only meaning of the word

Full Definition of judgmental

1 : of, relating to, or involving judgment


2: characterized by a tendency to judge harshly <judgmental prigs>

Way to be boxed in by whatever dictionary.

I've never heard or interpreted "judgemental" as anything but in line with the dictionary definition. Sometimes there's tension between actual usage and dictionary definition, but in this case there's not and you're completely out on a limb sir

Nah

judgment
&#712;j&#601;jm&#601;nt/
noun
1.
the ability to make considered decisions or come to sensible conclusions.

The verb form of this shouldn't have the emotional spin on it. Being judgmental should just mean making decisions or sensible conclusions. But because people are afraid to make declarative statements these days "judgmental" in its current form is being used.

Calling someone fat isn't judgmental it's rude.

Did you all know that the Illuminati and Free Masons are running this country into the ground?

My Uber driver just let me know that. I feel somewhat enlightened now.

I'm afraid of uber, especially after hearing the E3 story

hopefully I never have to use it

Why does smell mean stink? A dumpster stinks, it doesn't smell

language is a living organism. probably derived from phrasing like "the dumpster smells like shit" or whatever, and ultimately got reduced to just "smells"

When someone starts rambling about conspiracy theories, I try to one-up them. Like in this situation I would have gone in about the lizard men, how Hillary is not-so-secretly a serpent and servant of the devil. lol

But yeah sometimes it's grating when all you want to do is go home or do your business or whatever.

Because most things don't have a strong smell, and most strong smells are foul.

What E3 story? Usually I try to use Lyft, but it's only when I have to go grocery shopping since I can't load up my bike with bags.

Hmm, I hadn't heard of the lizard men. If this happens again now I'll have a story to one up them with.

I just leap at any chance to say "living organism" whether it's fair or not

Re Uber A Destructoid editor was using Uber during E3 and she saw the driver mark that she had been dropped off but didn't drop her off and kept going and going. She eventually bolted at a red light.

I have a live VO recording session tomorrow after not doing such a thing in quite a while. For some reason I'm feeling apprehensive about it. Weird because it was never a problem in the past.

Hahaha oh no. This is totally how I felt my freshman year of high school when I was attending a Catholic all-girls school.

That would be brutal. This professor in particular was one of my worst teachers I've ever had. Very disorganized and didn't care about the students or learning at all. Just going through the motions since he was tenured. My friend wrote that review after we made it through the class.

Con: conspiracy theorist. Had a heated argument Friday night about it.
