Why do some here hate the gypsy who sails round the world? What has he done that's so bad?
I think you are misinformed my friend , a lot of people enjoy GYPSY and recognize the value and wisdom within his comments , albeit they may have sarcasm or a bold feature to them . This man speaks from honesty and integrity ... he has great advice for those willing to hear it and absorb it with grace and gratitude . I for one think gypsy is great and I know a lot of others do as well . I also happen to find him fucking hilarious , to be honest .
hmm high moral standards and is less accepting towards people who don't agree with these moral standards. he prefers normality over individuality. most of his comments are insulting towards the OP or anyone who replies. and above all, HE IS EVERYWHERE! it's weird to me how he spends most of his day on this website judging people.
now i've only been on this site for two to three months, so i can't really judge him. but as someone whose moral code is along the line of welcoming EVERYTHING that doesn't affect the rights of any individual, i don't think we can get along.
i may have mentioned to him that i dislike him, (heat of the momment) but i really don't. as some one who accepts individuality, he's a great person to be honest. and i have to confess his insults are quite creative and somewhat funny. i'm just a very bitter person.
I don't get why people hate him. IsItNormal is so stupid with this type of thing. One month or two they dislike one person, next they dislike another. Sometimes it's people that aren't even that bad. Sailor doesn't come off as bad to me but maybe I just haven't looked in to him too much. He's a guy with his own opinions and due to that he will be wrong in his opinion, ignorant, and sometimes think he knows something when he doesn't. Like most people here.
I just recently had a disagreement with him and he didn't come off as arrogant or douchey in the slightest. I believe he was wrong but he didn't seem like a dick about it compared to some others on this site.
I'ts almost funny how IIN tends to dislike people that aren't too bad while adoring some that are pretty damn bad but they don't know about it.
Gyspy, you aren't a bad guy. This is just IIN drama coming back around and it seems like it's your turn to be caught in the storm. Just..."Sail" away from it? Ah? Ahhhhh? Ah, puns. ^_^
I don't hate him. I agree and disagree with him on a number of issues but I don't hate him.
I hate him because I keep telling him "not in my hair"!
...every time :(
Who said they hated him? I don't like some of his comments, but over all they're great!
I would rather read a well articulated controversial opinion that I dislike, than poorly formed comment that I generally agree with. TheGypsySailor often pisses me off in a delightfully engaging way. Thumbs up to our Old Man and the Sea.
Well, he's straightforward, that's a trait I admire. Can be sarcastic. Has a sense of humor. From what I understand he's over 60 years old, which must be taken into account. He's part of the community and I certainly appreciate him being here. We are all different and that's what makes us so special and valuable.
I don't enjoy talking about him indirectly, I hope that you don't mind Gypsy.
Hey, vitogenovese, idiamin and peterr here's your chance; let em fly. Don't hold your punches; you've got a free shot at me. Nary a word of defense will befall you.
Where are you boys? Nothing to say, now? hum, very, very interesting.
To the rest, thanks for your contributions, good and uh, interesting. I shall endeavor to remain my old raggedy man codger self, and not let all this fame (where oh where is the fortune that's supposed to go with it?) go to my head.
It is sad that on a site where people are asked to comment that anyone is actually singled out and attacked for giving their opinion. The gypsy "haters" are more than likely thin-skinned juveniles who've had their feelings hurt because you had the audacity to tell them what you think.
On a side note- It is amusing that anyone would actually have to hide behind a secondary account because dealing with you directly is just too intimidating. : )
Carry on.
I love your contributions, Gypsy!! You say some very wise things, and you aren't afraid to metaphorically punch a few idiots while you do it. I actually "whooped" when I read one your comments the other day.
I don't "hate." I'd just prefer if he wasn't constantly taking the authoritarian sides in debates.
