I quickly responded to your question with no, but the only people who would do that are people who really want to answer questions.
In any case, I think you're correct enough for this joke. At least some people really want to answer questions, and I have a questioning 5 yo.
There IS an extent to which this seems true for everyone, tho... Like, we were all "parented" in some way and that almost always involves answering and learning to defend oneself...
Can you clarify this a bit more? I'm not understanding this yet.
So everyone with parents/adult figures (almost everyone except wolf-children) they had to answer to, instilled a low-key compulsion to answer questions or any sentence with that lift at the end indicating questioning. Cuz you were in trouble if you didn't. Childen have no 5th amendment aha
Are you feeling ok? Can you share some more of your feelings?
...
As an anonymous Internet person, I want you to know that I care about you.
I also want you to know that I've gone through a lot of struggles, and I support you.
Can I ask what the deal here is? Do you think my comments are inordinate within the context of "having been parented + human)? Do you think its unusual that I generalize feeling a proclivity towards feeling it necessary to respond satisfactorily in the face of external inquiries? Is that not a normal thing?
I'm approaching all of this purely from the vantage point of curiosity :)
Your idea makes perfect sense, though I think it's not only embedded in culture (parenting), but also in our nature as humans.
I'm tempted to say that humans are born curious, and by extension, most humans like to share their knowledge or more often their opinions. I know I do.
Just say you're not going to hurt yourself or anyone else.
@cheese_greater@lemmy.world's thought process seems perfectly rational. Contrary, your continued belittling of and attempts to force OP into the role of a mentally ill person appears almost like a superiority complex or obsession, uncannily so.
You're likely a wonderful person who just formulated yourself in a very unlucky way, but OP would surely have spoken up if they needed help.
Wow. You are an enormous, condescending ass.
This hits close to home because it reminds me of a time in my life. I, myself, am mentally ill and am disgusted that you think that asking if someone is ok is a problem or at all belittling to them.
People very much do not speak up when they need help. I know I didn't.
No.
Really?
Psst. That's the joke.

Don't be a dick.
