I have seen similar reactions from youngsters in several states within the US.

Glad I got a reaction because the difficulty in finding something that makes sense is not easy. 

I believe the KEY is to not "rationalize," based upon their (often illusionary) false "memes," created to CONTROL the parameters, of our THOUGHTS, ACTIONS and REACTIONS.

If someone comes on to a forum for book enthusiasts and says "I don't care for reading, books are too boring" the reaction is probably not going to be positive. 

From my understanding, there are appropriate programs in place to lessen the reaction like last time.I don't think there's an exact science or formula but yes, we may seem similar numbers

When I first wrote this post, I knew there was going to be a mixed reaction. 

Thx Wade. sorry for the delayed reaction.

Each person can have a different reaction for sure.

So, I open the door and we say hello and he asks me if I have a mattress he can use.I had by this time learned to perfect a non-emotional bland face and to not give my initial Irish reaction when someone was ridiculous, but rather to take time to compose my response.So, pause, pause, pause, pause....."

I don't see how you can have this reaction while owning 120+ rental units and a property management business, according to your profile.
