Aside from yourself, who are the most stressed people on fluther?

Asked by wundayatta (58722points) November 17th, 2010

First by groups: fluther men or fluther women? fluther teens, gen xers, baby boomers? Atheists or believers? Explain why you believe these things.

Then, aside from yourself, who would you think is the most stressed person on fluther? This is about perception, not judgment. If you feel it is a judgment, please don’t answer, but if you feel ok nominating someone, I think it would be very interesting to see how we perceive each other’s lives.

I’m actually not that stressed, but I do worry about my fellow Jellies sometimes. Mostly male, mostly over 30, and, Wundy, I worry about you. Please don’t be offended by that, it’s meant as concern, never judgement. I’ve gotten to like you, you know!

Dang, not fair to take me out of the equation! Hmmmm….I’ll have to think about this one…

I would have to peg most of the Liberals I run into here seem awfully stressed out. Heaven forbid you mention George Bush, Sarah Palin or Tea Party….then the feathers really fly!! ;)

@JilltheTooth Thank you. I appreciate your concern. Funny. It never occurred to me to exempt myself (as asker of the question) from the answers. I wish I had.

Of say the mods get the bulk of the stress.

The people that feel no need to connect to facebook and whatnot.
It is unbarable.

(well at least I didn’t mention myself, outside of brackets)

Teens, with all of the relationship drama.

And the haters – they seem to really hate, whether it be opposing political views, non-whites, or mods ;)

Augustlan and the rest of the mod crew, yo.

I’m really not that stressed even though I’m both a mod, and a student with a massive workload.

I’m willing to bet that Augustlan is pretty stressed. She puts up with more bullshit than any of the other mods, but she is pretty graceful about it, so who knows?

Leave me out of the equation, please. I am interested, amused, astonished, concerned, baffled, bemused,often outwitted and occasionally misinformed..but never stressed.

Additionally, I live with an 11 lb. stress reducer.

Now I want to know how Milo would answer this! ;-)

MIlo here: I would if I were not now getting my Swedish massage. And my bubble bath is getting cold, also.

hmmm no-one really stands out for me…I think we all have our ‘good days’ and ‘bad days’ ... perhaps apart from @gailcalled ;-)

People with relationship questions.

Especially ones that take the form, “My significant other has done the following completely unacceptable things: X, Y, and Z. I cry constantly and have never been more unhappy. What can I do to change him/her???? PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!”

I think I haven’t been noticeably stressed since the great mars bar loss of 2007 (turned out it was behind the radiator, while cleaning up the gasoline afterwards it all seemed rather funny).

I’m inclined to say that the most stressed people on Fluther are those worried on behalf of family. Whether people be concerned for their infants health or the approaching death of their relatives, family tends to be an issue that causes people to feel very helpless.

I doubt I could name a specific person as I generally presume people here to be mellow by default. But I have a feeling it would be someone who rarely shows any outward signs of caring about a disagreement; it’s hard to be passionate enough to argue when your head’s filled with 50 others problems.

You guys are so sweet.

Just by name alone, I’m inclined to say WorriedGuy… but he’s not very worried anymore. :)

Atheists have a free run on here. People who are religionists or have a core belief in God don’t seem to have it too bad either. I would say the people who have it the roughest on here are dualists and traditional family values individuals. It seems open-minded agnostics take a beating as well on here.
