    do we run away from fights and trouble?
    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:
