In all fairness, I don't understand the true value of bitcoins because they're niche and ridiculous, but you understand my point.
You know what I don't understand? The person who says "My bad" instead of "I'm sorry". I don't understand when an individual moves others in a crowd and says "Watch out" instead of "Excuse me". I hear these exact words from strangers nearly every day.
Would it be so hard to add yourself to the equation? I would really like to know if it's a generational thing, or a social problem on a grand scale. What makes this behavior so problematic is the fact that it alienates people from real interaction, allowing them to absolve all responsibility for their actions (at least in their own heads), and feeds the fire of self-indulgence.
I don't want to make the claim that speaking this way is sociopathic, but it's not a constructive way of communicating and to use the term "my bad" instead of a real statement that proves you accept that there are others around you is the work of someone who most likely lacks conscientiousness or maturity.
I heard a classmate use "My bad" to a professor today and even though there's no book that says you have to respect your elders, there really shouldn't need to be. It should go without saying.
You know what else we should go without saying?
"My bad".
Until next time,
Move. Move. Watch out. Move.
