To hate the passive-agressive "are you ok?" tack people take on AIBU threads?

[thisismynewname]

You know...someone is arguing a point, and someone else will come along and say something like "you seem quite upset about this, have you sought any help? I only say this because I care."

Bollocks is it said because they care, it's a transparent attempt to undermine the poster and really very rude.

This is great so far, can I press pause while I go out and buy milk please? I really have to go!!!

bloody hell km..can you get a move on..i need to go to tesco.

(flightattendant2...you're not going mad..i am daftpunk..this is my halloween name..don't tell anyone.)

Definately guilty of threatening to leave thread and then posting 50 times!

Yeah but winding idiots up till their brains leak out of their noses is all part of the fun of the Internet. And once you know that they are screaming at the screen and have shat themselves in outrage, then you can start with the 'Oh dear, you poor thing have you considered therapy or a nice cup of tea? Here's a hanky to dry those tears...'
Works every time.

lol @ roseability!! i must admit, i did think of you when someone mentioned the leaving the thread thing on here!!
how are you? any news of the remote tribal village we are going to descend on???
couldnt quite believe the responses you got to that one!!!!!!
lmao @ solidgold.... you are a very sick cruel women. i think perhaps you need someone in rl to talk to about this!
xx

so, how do you tell the difference between passive/aggressive and genuine care in the written word, with no past exchange to gauge from??

isn't it just a reaction to a fearful suspicion?? [innocent emocion]

Kerry are you actually making this up? It's very good.

Pan - it's about context.

has someone asked "are you ok".imo don't go on AIBU expecting good manners,empathy,reflection

or is it a case of doth protest too much, not ok.so get the hump at being asked

Solidgold, I ha never ever thought that you were into winding people up!!!!

I'm good Matildax. Thinking of starting my own tribe of the 'lets learn how not to get wound up by random strangers on the internet' variety.

do you get genuinely wound up?hell no to me its a bunch of women with pc tap tapping.no biggie

i switch off and switch off

healthy approach, SM.

km....are you ever going to finish this story? ive been waiting all day..going to bed in a minute.

good idea rose, i reckon some posters on here lack imagination, and dare not to dream..... very regimented, very routine, very pc, very very boring!!!
bollocks to the lot of them!!
good night all, im off to cry into my pillow because some pixel people dont actually see my point of view....... the complete bastards!! how very dare they.

LOL that sounds like the hook line for some horrid lifestyle product like oven cleaner

lack imagination, and dare not to dream until now that feckit cleaner can deliver your dream open your imagination

liking the story kerry

KERRY!
