Swearing out loud in front of other people can carry some baggage and consequence. It's risky social behavior.
Only if you dick around fucking prudes.
Why don't baptists dance? Because they don't want people to mistakenly think they're fucking.
wow, very deep. thanks cherry. I'll have to write that down.
to answer your question: "like what?": like when a jet is occupying airspace in your high-rise building's proximity with a military fighter escort in a city that has seen some nasty shit go down.
how about I tell you that in my personal experiences I have had fear, but I simply managed it. And from there came the ability to think clearly and react effectively.
so pick that apart...
How many people here would stay somewhere if they thought they were reasonably likely to die there?
Yeah, seriously. Those people did not necessarily "over-react". They are using previous incidents as evidence and it is a reasonable assumption (considering the fighter escorts) that something "bad" may have been unfolding.
For the folks that scream that these people are weak-minded sheep, you're nothing more than the polarized opposite of those who spread the FUD. I don't argue that FUD is bullshit, but *sometimes* there is good reason to be afraid.
And lastly, the way you call "sheep" on these people makes me think you've never been in a potentially life-threatening situation. That, or your damned green vulcan blood hinders your instinct to preserve yourself.
Take note: There is no fucking respawn if you die.
But eleven is so much more awesome!

That does not compute.
