    Well it's not like it's cowardly to run away from "fights and trouble", sometimes it's sensible. To me, cowardice is not admitting to your faults, sneaking away weasel-like to let someone else take the flak for your own doing, etc.
    Don't know that that's more prevalent now than it ever was. I do see people saying on this thread "Yes, 'we' are more cowardly now" in a very condescending manner putting other people down though.
    Is it all about being a cool hipster?
    What the bejesus? What's this thing of people referring to anything at all that they disagree with, as "hipster"? Even to the point of completely distorting the meaning. :confused:
