The statement "Mangoes are annoying to me," and the statement, "mangoes are annoying," are different. One is a personal "I" statement saying "this is something about ME," very clearly. The other, because of it's simplicity, says "this is something inherent in mangoes," clearly and it takes interpretation (i.e. positive intent) to twist this slightly to add the clarifying phrase "to me."
Don't accuse people of trying to make you simperingly sweet and force you to deny your inner self or your feelings simply because they want you to be CLEAR with your statements and avoid misunderstandings.
This is non-negotiable.
:pant pant:
Okay, it is negotiable, but I won't engage in the discussion right now.
