Good Tolerance Bad Tolerance

So what’s tolerance?
It usually means putting up with something you don’t really like. No one likes tolerance, but everyone expects it from others. It’s annoying to have to tolerate something you don’t like. Seriously really annoying. If you liked it, it wouldn’t really be tolerating, it would be enjoying. It’s highly dependent on point of view. It is used as such an automatic positive, but I think tolerance can be negative too. It all depends on what you are expected to tolerate. Can you tolerate kids running around screaming? Yes. Ok that’s cool. Can you tolerate someone beating up another person? No. You probably shouldn’t tolerate that one.
I could give more examples. But you get the idea. Besides, I can’t tolerate sitting here any longer.
