Well someone probably called 911 I'd assume. But ya people are weak and stupid, whatever, nothing new.
To return to my invulnerability analogy, the fire tried to stab all those who saw. The crowd people were wounded and bleeding, I didn't even get scratched. Thus I'm stronger, by the only definition of strength that matters, absence of weakness. Your definition is the one weak people use so they don't feel how pathetic they are.

And your definition is delusional. Invulnerable via indifference to act? nope, and it doesn't make you strong. Yours is the delusion of the weak thinking they're mighty.

MugiwaraBlair Lady RuliyaTo elaborate that quote. It was told to me when i was a kid by a soldier. The context is war. Some parts i did take into my personal life but the quote is about war. The conversation is good but its not really going anywhere.

Again, it's the unfazed part that shows strength, an unfazed person who acts is strong too. The reason I personally didn't has nothing to do with it. Hating people and valuing myself above others is just my opinion.
You're basically saying that someone who gets injured is more durable.
Opposites define each other, strength is nothing more nor less than the absence (or at least lesser presence) of weakness. Panicking or being horrified are signs of weakness, therefore any who exhibit them are weak. How you fail to grasp this is beyond me

*sigh* I grasp it just fine. I said at the beginning this would be pointless due to our difference of opinions, I thought maybe a decent discussion might come from it, and maybe it did. But we're not changing each others minds. I'm unfazed by your arguments, and am happily strong for it, per your definition. I'm also going to do the strong thing and leave this discussion behind as it serves no purpose anymore. I indulged my curiosity.

Come now sweetie, an intelligent person like yourself can see there's no point in continuing a futile discussion. It's just logical to leave it here.

"What’s special about warriors? We have no unfathomable arcane energies at our fingertips, no demons enslaved to our will, no spirits or gods smiling upon us. We don’t hide in shadows until we can cripple a victim with poison, or shoot our enemies while running from a safe distance. There is no great light or darkness suffusing our limbs to empower our blades, no bestial transformations to make us stronger. We’re ordinary men and women with nothing but some armor and a weapon going for us against beings with all the power of the cosmos at their beck and call. We’re not special, not in any way, shape, or form. Against the powers that shape the universe, we are mere specks of dust. And they’re scared as hell of us because we fight them anyway"
