You seem to have a personal grudge against her. ??

I think he means it's good that she's terrified of consequences after blinding someone. Because someone like that really deserves to be scared.

That just sounds...vengeful. o.O

being blinded is one of those things I put up there as "really really horrible things I never want to happen to anybody ever"

Thus anybody who does such a thing deliberately to another person is on my "really really horrible people I wish lifetimes of misery to" list.

So basically, yeah, it's vengeful.

I get where you're coming from, I just don't find it productive or helpful. Vengeance is self-serving and solves nothing.

I hope she faces fair consequences for her actions, and I hope she gets serious anger-management help, and I hope she compensates the person she hurt as fully as possible. I do not hope she's "miserable for the rest of her life". That reaction seems completely pointless.

I'm not sure how you expect people to react to someone blinding someone else. Yes, she did something stupid and she is scared. If she, say, went off on the guy and got in trouble, I would be more sympathetic. Or accidentally spilled coffee on the dude. Shit happens and no one really gets hurt.
But she partly blinded someone by throwing hot coffee in his eyes. She deserves to face the consequences. We're not calling for a witch-hunt here, just that she should accept her responsibilities and the fact that she nearly blinded someone over questionable offenses is not okay. Seriously, she never even suggested she was guilty over it.

I thought it was implied the whole time that she was guilty. And idk, it kinda sounds like a witch hunt. Everyone is so vengeful and wants her to feel horrible forever, is kinda what it seems like. Of COURSE she deserves to face the consequences - isn't that kind of a given? I feel the attitude here is going beyond justice and into vengeance. if that makes sense.

Like I get the horror and the WTF-ness. I do not get the hate.

In the same way you seem to have sympathy for her and wish her well... I have the exact opposite.

I'm not entirely sure what you're getting at. I have sympathy for almost everyone who is in a tight spot, even if it's their fault they're there. If you're implying that I think she did the right thing or something, then...no. But making a mistake - even a big one - doesn't warrant the undying hate of a stranger on the internet, imo.

I mean I see where you're coming from, I guess I just don't get your attitude.

Hate is strong. hate implies I think about her when these threads aren't being mentioned.

But there are no good thoughts in me for this person and there likely never will be.

(Anonymous) 2014-04-08 05:20 am (UTC)(link)
That wasn't a "mistake," though. A mistake would be if she tripped and spilled it accidentally. What she did was a vengeful act of sheer malice. I mean, seriously, who throws boiling hot coffee at someone's face just for a boob-glance?

[personal profile] diet_poison 2014-04-08 12:59 pm (UTC)(link)
No, that's a fair point. I got the sense it was a thoughtless reaction indicating severe anger-management issues (like...severe) but she didn't go "ahaha, I'm going to blind him!" She clearly didn't think it through but when the reality of what she'd done hit home she was like "omg shit". More than anything else it just sounds juvenile, except with horrible consequences.

So it was more extreme carelessness than a mistake, but I wouldn't say it was calculated malice. I could be wrong, but I didn't think she was trying to blind the fellow. She was just being really stupid.

I'm not sure I agree with the rest of your thoughts, but I do agree with your assessment of what (probably) happened. To me, this read like her doing something impulsively which you see a lot in movies/TV: guy acts like a jerk, woman throws her drink in his face and storms off. Only in this case the drink was hot coffee, and the consequences were a lot more severe than she anticipated.

Honestly throwing a drink in someone's face for looking at you is a bad precedent anyway...I wonder if that actually happens (often) or if it's just in media.

I'd maybe throw a drink at a guy if he lunged at me, but for looking? that is so extreme

maybe coffee anon was inspired by the scene in The Big Heat where Lee Marvin throws boiling coffee in Gloria Graham's face.
