this is what parents say to their children who have done the stupidity that had been forbidden to them, and that while they are taking care of them (when it does not matter!)How would that allow you to say, in the background "Well you see, I told you!"
you are right, we cannot say, a priori, without having the elements in hand to verify the different aspects. But a posteriori, yes! This is what doctors do who, in their essentially curative profession, can make the links between cause and effect! Dietetics do the same, and so do many other professions.What do you gain from telling someone in pain .... that you were right? Above all, without having any certainty in the end. Informed guesses, maybe, but no more.
This is what we call knowledge and experience brought together by lived experience!
Note that there is a background in what you say. But it clearly lacks the form. And the fact that the interlocutor opposite does not always put them either, although it does not help, still does not allow not to put them oneself.
Note that I did not quote you, in this case. But obviously I was thinking about this post, in my opinion, unhappy, lacking in compassion. But janic had the same attitude on the subject.
You are right, for me! I am criticized, in my family among others, for being rough and for not giving in the delicacy. It does not always pay off, but language convolutions also often serve to drown the fish, especially in cases where there is an emergency (and I do not consider a forum as such)
Not always, but often despite everything! If the firefighter does not say it directly, he means it very loudly! and particularly during forest fires where they curse the arsonists or not, of which unfortunately they become the potential victims.Do you want to continue the analogy of the firefighter who comes to put out the fire?
"Sir, my house is on fire, it must be extinguished !!!"
"Yeah hey, on the other hand, it's built entirely of wood and you have a barbecue inside next to the curtains. You're a little dumb right ?!"
I'm not sure it works like that in real life ...
