But that's me.
Howdy!

Let him have his PL privy back. It's been pretty boring lately.
I like my water with hops, malt, hops, yeast, and hops.

Kerrigan, I ignore his baits of me for the most part. But I will, and usually do take of for those he goes after that usually don't take up for themselves.

besson loves to play the victim/mentor game while being hurtful/condescending at the same time. The chicken/net emoticon is just an example of the latter.

He is a classic example of someone that loves to dish it out, and sees such actions as valid, but can't take it back.

He can see many faults in others, but little of his own.

I was like this too above (the last part) for a long time. I started learning to just accept faults of others. I found I usually got mad at other people doing things I hated when I did.

So I attempt to distance myself from such actions. We are not perfect, we are going to flub up.

besson just thinks a lot about himself. He wants to be the "asshole" while still being liked.

I attempted to make a deal with you long ago, which still stands BTW, that if you stop belittling people, that I would stop responding to your posts etc.

Why wouldn't ANYONE take that offer up? You till to this day ignore it as I never put it on the table.

So what that tells me is, you want to act like a jerk more than you want me to stop responding to you.

You want to not be responsible for your actions. Actually I could stop now and you'd still be getting it from other people. It's just not me anymore that is annoyed of the shenanigans.

And it's not that we are uptight, or thin skinned. We ALL like a good joke. Most people here are thick skinned or they'd not longer be here. You just have a tendency to make your jokes around belittling other people. In an attempt to make them look less than you? I don't know if it's a self defense mechanism or what. But you don't seem to/want to stop for whatever reason.

If it's a problem at home/work you are having, and feel this place is a place you take out your aggressions why not try to talk to us about it instead? If that isn't the case all I am saying is besson, we don't HATE you. We just wish you'd be little less hateful towards other people and a bit less pretentiously condescending.

Why you may ask? Because it's the Right thing to Do®

No matter what you believe in.

The purposely posting in the wrong forum to be a "rebel" act is on big deal. I could even look over it. But the hatefulness has to go.

Now if you don't know that your "jokes" and "humor" is being mean/hurtful and you don't think you are doing anything wrong, then thats a whole nother can of worms that this forum can't help you with.

Hilarious, and a protector of my belittling to boot! You should be thankful, because I know that you've always had great difficulty dealing with my heinous and Godless belittling yourself, so now you have somebody to do this work for you!

Maybe Kevin will offer to wipe your ass for you next, that would be some pretty sweet service! Kevin, always looking out for his fellow man. What a patriot!

- Belittingly yours,
besson3c


P.S. Is this post more sarcastic or belittling? I'm so confused I can't even tell the difference anymore... Please help me find my way, Bluesky, so that I can make the transition from belittling to sarcastic so I can be like the others and finally fit in. I feel so alone... hold me...
