@Tom_Tildrum

Otherwise, Jorolat, welcome back to the SDMB!

Stick around this time.

Thank you, Tom.

As I said before, the first post I made today was addressed solely to “DaveW” and wasn’t an invitation for total strangers to involve themselves - especially those who have bad things happen inside their head.

Ah, this is a common misconception around here. You see, this is a public message board, where your comments are posted for the world to see. This is not your living room, where you can have a private conversation. The easiest way to tell the difference is that this place isn’t stained by years’ worth of drool buildup.

This is classic abuser behaviour.

Pretending that I don’t know “comments are posted for the world to see (etc.)” enables the adoption of an unnatural attitude of “superiority” (expressed in the form of a lecture) prior to the discharge of the abuse itself: “The easiest way to tell the difference is that this place isn’t stained by years’ worth of drool buildup.”

I mentioned in an earlier post about seeing lots of recent news reports concerning bullying in the USA.

You don’t think the people who are responsible know that they are “bullies”, do you?

Of couse not! They see themselves as good guys - with internal reactions just like yours, in fact…

If you want to reply solely to DaveW, and don’t want third parties to involve themselves, send him an email.

I’ve never said I wanted to reply solely to DaveW, I’ve said the reply was solely for DaveW.

The first reply today was:

@Blake

Holy Fucking Zombie Threads batman.

NINE years +.

I’ve no objection at all to replies of recognizably natural origin.

What’s the word for someone who posts something on a public message board but thinks the public shouldn’t respond?

I’ve never said “I think the public shouldn’t respond”, else I would have objected to Blake’s input.

But I am intrigued by what the word might be - I bet it’s something abusive!

Abusive people see what they want to see (another classic symptom!)

Don’t ever change,** jorolat**.

Now I remember why I don’t remember him.

jorolat, the fact you bumped a 9 year old thread shows a disturbing tendency towards masochism that you undoubtedly know exists. Furthermore, your replies show clearly a passive aggressive nature that is rather poorly hidden.

If you make any reply to this, it will be because you are hiding the true nature of your feelings, and are too close-minded to see beyond your confined strictures of your upbringing and mind-set. If only you could actually perform self-analysis, and dig deeper into the motivations that drive you; sadly it is effectively impossible.

Please do not reply with veiled violent language. You and I both know what I’m talking about.

I will not be replying to anything you say at any rate; I am very busy with other things at the moment.

Yeah, the Pit sure was a smokin’ place back in 2001. Men were men, and whiny rants about nothing stayed in MPSIMS. Hoo boy.

Didn’t see the original thread. Or this one, before today.

But there’s a small perverse homunculus tapping on my brain, suggesting that I go to jorolat’s website and see if references to “geocentrism” are matched in number to references to “abuse”.

I think I’m going to ask the other homunculus (the “good” one with the harp and halo), to take him out for ice cream or something.

Wow, jorolet sure knows how to nurse a grudge. I’m not sure that’s entirely healthy, but given that this fight is nearly a decade old, and one half of it isn’t around to participate anymore, I’m closing this thread.
