    Hypocrissy comes in many forms. But all the same when it comes down to it...
    People saying one thing but would actually do another. People going back on what they previously did becase it wasnt the "popular outcome" etc etc etc ...


    So do you think the mass population of people are hypocrites?

    Probably everyone is in some way.

    Nobody's perfect.

    And me. ;)

    I'm a total hyprocrite. Always preaching how people should live their lives while I constantly do the total opposite. I do it a fair bit on Boards as well.

    Hey! Shoot me! I'm human! ;) *wink*

    Maybe not hypocrites as such, but most boardsies are jerks.

    I am a hypocrite.

    @Eve_Dublin

    Well said.

    It's very easy to saddle up the old high horse and go galloping around the 'net like some 'crusader for truth'.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12 sunssocks


    It takes a will, strength and thinking tofollow yourself what you are saying. so i think its quite natural that often we do something else than what we preach. i always try remembering that i often acted stupid


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 503 ✭✭✭whoopdedoo


    yes and I recently dropped 4 people who were particularly bad for it. 2 years after we all berated Enda kenny in the street my hippy friend (rossport supporter) and Enda is the best in the world! me generalising foreign nationals got me a giving out to one day and about a month later I recommend a Polish guy for a job to be told "I'd have a serious problem giving my money to a pole!"

    then I had a Muslim mate tells me his people are the most religious and how he's such a great perfect Muslim with a perfect family (yet drinks, smokes tobacco, weed and hash, sniffs coke, pops pills and we caught him kissing and **** knows what else with another woman even though he's married!)

    ye are the weakest links, GOODBYE :)

    I think they are

    I also think they are Idiots and downright ©unts as well

    But none of this is as bad as their habit of making sweeping generalisations.

    why does every thread here have to be either a yes or no answer?
    its not a black and white world!

    so in answer to the OP, sometimes


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,775 ✭✭✭✭kfallon


    Everyone has been a hypocrite at some point.

    Example:
    "I wouldn't ride that bird"
    Few pints later she is in the bed sitting on you with her flange wrapped round your knob while you probe her bum bum with your index finger :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 21,191 ✭✭✭✭Latchy


    Of course , were only human except some people take it to extremes with over exaggerations about everything . People don't always want to hear the truth anyway but then it never does much good to pay to much attention to what anybody else says ( solid good advice aside ) ;)

    Sir,I tip my hat to you....:pac:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,243 ✭✭✭LighterGuy


    Landslide poll with 41 votes to 2 :pac:


    But within talking about hypocrissy. Whats a persons opinion and view then? .....

    Personally, I think your average persons opinion/view is all s*ite. Its like someone going on about how Nixers are wrong. That they should be "reported" ... but yet suddenly said as*hole is in a position to make a bit of money under the table (nixer) then its different. its ah sure no harm. :rolleyes:

    personally, i think you can apply to above bit to everything in life. Just replace nixer with what ever situational.
