T-Rex: Sometimes in our lives we face conflict! We disagree with someone and we MUST work it out.

T-Rex: Or MUST we?

T-Rex: Because I've just found out that everyone LIED to us and there's a whole lifestyle where you never have to face ANY conflict!!
Dromiceiomimus: WHAT?! I've been doing the difficult labour of working out differences in my interpersonal relationships for my entire life AND I DIDN'T EVEN HAVE TO??
T-Rex: Right?!

Utahraptor: What's this incredible lifestyle called?
T-Rex: "Conflict avoidance".

T-Rex: You simply avoid ever confronting anything - OR anyone! You just act like it doesn't bother you - fake it till you make it, baby - and become a PEOPLE-PLEASER, always agreeing to what OTHERS want!
Utahraptor: Wow! Who WOULDN'T want to please people?
T-Rex: EXACTLY!!

Off panel: But wait - it says here that never resolving conflicts leads to stunted emotional growth?!
T-Rex: Sounds great, I don't need my dang emotions growing any larger ANYWAY!
Off panel: I don't think that's what that means!
T-Rex: OH NO
