No? Consent is an important thing no matter the context. I, for one, hate physical contact that I don't explicitly request or seek. Being patted on the back out of nowhere, as insignificant as it may be to you, is a massive breach of my personal space and my consent.

It's not about being sensitive, it's about respect. Don't force people into things they don't want. Don't assume they want something, either.

Great point, absolutely destroyed my argument, there. Do you have any more pearls of wisdom for us? Either refute what I said or don't bother with playground insults, you're humiliating yourself more than anyone else, here.

Yes you did bud. You are on a public forum. Including yourself into the conversation is consent to be responded to.

Your attempt at a silly gotcha in a public forum is implied consent. Zing
