While reading through my news feed a year ago, I encountered this one guy that was particularly inflammatory towards others in this long facebook comment chain (and also calling for this one country to be completely wiped out from the world). As a result, I responded with words that are not the nicest:
Random Guy: You’re still young and immature to talk about it … go and find yourself a pretty girl and spend a pleasant night with she … unless you’re gay.
Post reply: Nah, I don’t make stupid comments and blame one side based off of simple conclusions. Maybe you need to get an education.
Random Guy: You already had a stupid comment first. I’m not arguing with the kids … go home and do homework if you already have a girlfriend… As far as education … you’ll have a long time to study to be able to have a discussion with me.
Post reply: Don’t worry about me man. I know you got a lot of studies from the National Serbian and Russian Institute of Bigotry. Have fun harping around with your self proclaimed crusader image.
Random Guy: Of course … unlike you … I am proud of my country, my culture and my language … and Serbia has had its statehood even 1371 years … I have to be proud of. I said … but you’re young, there’s time to meet intolerance … and not by Serbia or Russia already in your home country. Go and sleep … Tomorrow is another day.
I know I probably shouldn’t have used words like these (I was just kind of ticked off by the way in which that guy was just flaming the post). Will language like these be discovered and considered as vulgar and hurtful by admission officers, severely hurting my college chances? I have never posted anything vulgar such as drugs or alcohol on social media (I only really reply to a few comments on the newsfeed).
