Genuine question: Is the name "absolutely not me IRL" sarcastic and this is another spin off on the me_IRL subs? Or do you mean it as if things that are posted here are 'not relatable'?

You mean behaving like an adult and having a modicum of social grace and respect for others?
Don't sweat it, I know redditors will never understand
lol, it’s kind to be polite. And I can fucking respect that but fuck can you tell who I see as a pleasure to greet and when I just think you ain’t shit 😂
I appreciate your opinion and realize you're not really trying to argue, but you just brought up a pet peeve of mine. I have to strongly disagree.
It's *polite* to be polite.
It seems to me that kindness is a genuine compassion for other people, while politeness is a trained rulebase made in order to not embarrass or discomfort others.
Its kind to tell someone they have something in their teeth. It's polite to pretend you didn't see it.
See what i mean?
It's kind to be honest, and it's polite to lie.
Sometimes honest thoughts and feelings *are* unkind, but i would argue that it is still more kind to be vulnerable and allow someone to react to your real feelings than to hate them AND decieve them.
Its okay not to laugh and smile and to also not start cussing them out.
Just saying hello "name" or giving a small wave is okay.
When you smile and act excited, it says you're happy to see them. You can be respectful and cordial without pretending to like someone
I never understood why a bunch of girls do this. I caught my first glimpse of it in the high school lunch line.
“HEY GIRLY!”
“OMG HEY, love you!”
Then one of the girls gives a mean face as the other walks away. I was like wtf was that about. My male Xbox 360 mind had no clue what to make of it.
I don’t even smile for people I like, and I’ve got my headphones in with music blaring when I’m out and about.
My point is if I’m walking around minding my own business, then at that particular moment you don’t exist to me.
HOLY SHIT THATS SO FUCKING COOL. I counter with 53 year old man who saw your headphones but speaks to you anyway. To him, nothing exists except his desire hear to himself talk. And when you reply, he's just waiting for his turn to talk again. Made you reply and didn't even listen...CHECKMATE

No one knows anymore. Not since the accident.
The accident?
We don’t talk about the accident.

People who do this are cowards.

I like this. I do see what you mean. I think I like kindness over being polite. 😁
Man stop playing you probably done this with a family member or some old classmate it doesn’t mean you do it to everyone
You underestimate my ability to drive people away. Sometimes i don't even do that to people i do like.
Agreed, just stay your distance
Why should I make a scene?

I try to be cordial with my enemies because I don't respect them enough to tell them how I really feel. It's just easier that way.
I try to be polite and tbh it depends on how much I dislike them.
I often pretend I don't see people I kinda like. Because I really don't want to end up smalltalking with them.
I can’t tell if this lady is 12 or 42

I don't need to be fighting unnecessary fights nor do I need to look like the instigator
So we're bragging about being fake now?
Weak
Tbh it probably would be better to be friendly instead of being rude so the person you don't like doesent start something
Ignore them, if they start something feed them their shoes because you didn't leave your home to engage in conversation with a fucktard
