That’s where the phrase “saved by the bell” comes from isn’t it? Because they used to do this with a bell attached to a rope that the person could ring.

Isn’t the fact that it’s uncommon what makes it extreme though? I could be wrong about that but I’m not sure how else you’d define what is extreme vs not.
- Comment on paz 2 weeks ago:
That’s a good point. I guess things have gotten so bad I don’t consider those views to be held only by extremists anymore but maybe (and hopefully) I’m wrong about that.

I obviously can’t speak for everyone but my assumption is that there is such fundamental disagreement that for many, even saying “agree to disagree” with certain people would be a betrayal of their own values.
Someone I know put it pretty well when talking about the idea of how accepting their workplace should be of people’s different political values. They said “If someone doesn’t think I should have human rights, I don’t want to work with them.” which I think makes the point pretty well. See also: paradox of tolerance.

- Comment on A secret is something you keep, whilst a surprise is something you give. 4 weeks ago:
Also the intention behind a surprise is always to reveal the surprise otherwise what’s the point? A secret is something you hide without planning to reveal it generally.
