You can’t make everyone happy – stop trying

This is especially true for anyone posting to online forums. I guess CD is quite tame (save for the Politics/Controversies forum) but these principles still apply.

While I don't go around purposely trying to offend or stir up people, I put practically zero effort into worrying whether or not EVERYONE will respond positively to my posts. Some people will always try to disagree, argue vehemently, or even pick a fight with you no matter how innocuous your post was and this is something you have little/no control over.

Good point. No matter how "nice" you can try to be, someone will ultimately misunderstand what you mean.

Sometimes it's just for the drama, but no one should lose sleep over CD content.
