Controversial

All over

Why do so many people thrive on being so? I don't actually mean expressing their values and beliefs. We all have those of course but is that obvious hunger to deliberately create conflict, often throwing the grenade and sitting back and rejoicing at their work that I don't understand. There used to be one or two well known for that but actually it is the ones who try and do it rather very subtly and mischievously that I am mostly refering to. Often revisiting controversial subjects for their amusement. So who would have tomato ketchup on their bacon sandwich?

For some it's their USP.

For others it's a case of there being no such thing as bad publicity and any attention is better than none.

Without wishing to sound controversial, but (a)as I'm a veggie / pescatarian so would not eat a bacon sandwich, but, and (b) speaking hypothetically, if I were not I'd definitely not put salted butter on my bacon sandwich, it would have to be unsalted butter, the sweetcreamy blandness is a counter to the already salty bacon

To be fair I would have no butter at all, and sometimes a drop of brown but that is all.

I always have ketchup on my vegan bacon... And it has to be in shitey-slicy-whitey bread - squished and cut in half

As to controversy - boredom, superiority, jealousy, addressing the eejits, just an all round knob... Thousands of motivations 😆

On the people who like to cause controversy, I generally put that down to attention seeking.

For bacon sandwiches, brown sauce all the way for me.

Come the revolution, there will be no ketchup on bacon sandwiches. Or bacon. Or bread.

Soylent Green will be widely available, though, so it's not all doom and gloom.

I don't like bacon sandwiches.

Deliberately stirring the pot for their own amusement is a source of amusement to some. It takes all sorts

Some people crave attention I guess. There is someone we know who does this exact move on social media. He will throw a controversial comment on local FB pages then sit back and watch the drama without commenting further. It's quite sad and I just avoid it.

Hand grenade posters.

Happens on here a fair bit too. It can take a bit of practice not to bite, but often for the best.

You can often tell by the phrase 'prove me wrong' or 'change my mind' at the end of a post.

The ability to simply scroll on by and respect the opinions of others seems to be a lost art, which plays wonderfully in to the hands of the hand grenade lobbers.

If you want to go for your bacon butty prepared with red, brown, salted, unsalted, crispy, floppy, white, wholemeal, sliced, plastic, artisan hand harvested spelt flour plaited baked in a sustainable wood fired oven, or whatever, then do so, enjoy and allow others to enjoy theirs.

Even if they are wrong.

I like ketchup on my sandwich.

Ketchup from the fridge.

To be honest I speak my mind I'm quite blunt that's just me, but also polite (I think) some things I'll scroll past because my response wouldn't be welcomed but sometimes I will think fuck it and comment my view anyway, just because others may not like it doesn't make it less valid, we should all be able to speak our minds without worry of what someone else may think.

I reckon it's mostly attention seeking and a front because they're not otherwise interesting enough to grab people's attention on other ways.

Oh, and this might be controversial, but chuck out the bacon and go for a sausage cob instead 🤌

A bit of attention seeking or jealousy if others are getting any attention.

Or they have sad little lives and get off on creating drama.

Bacon or sausage.

But they both need a runny egg.

(And tomato ketchup) 😉

They probably need compassion but it's nobody's job to give them that, for their deficiencies. Emotionally controlling people aren't healthy to be involved with. They'll gravitate to forums and situations where they can try to exert their power.

You may have had a great, intelligent point and they'll try to demean you and it. Let your point stand and walk away. They will probably die, without ever changing

Ketchup for me. All's good

at the risk of sounding contrarian, controversial, captious, attention seeking, argumentative etc. etc. in Wales we call it 'Tomato Sauce' (not ketchup , we also call 'trainers' 'daps'
