Well, Sir_Les, its up to you to sting me into action again if you really want more, so I don't continue finding pity for you. I simply don't have the stomach for much of this sort of thing when I start viewing the other party as so very much less able.
What a fanspastic concept! I need to “sting you into action”? I have been waiting for the Lion of Gestalt to do ...... something and now you imagine that you have already done something clever and are what? Basking in the glow of your self-importance?
So what
HAVE you done? Now you say,
“My standard response to somebody I see as a confirmed bully or a troll is to fight them - the ole red rag to a bull thing. Maybe part of it is to try and give them a taste of what I see as their own medicine dealt out to others” AND “don't particularly enjoy it beyond blowing off a bit of steam at a Troll”Sounds tough, righteous and rather impressive..though you also say
“we're simply playing footsie....and later............”Nah, this is a minor skirmish”
Truth now, were you or were you not, wearing clown shoes when you wrote this crap?
When you first came in and posted I was prepared for an onslaught worthy of your members identifying you as the “Lion of Gestalt”. I was ready for the righteous attacker of vile trolls from Delphi. What I got was a lot of huff in the first post or two and no puff. Piss weak really.
There has been a lot of fancy emoticons, a lot of blah, a truckload of tough guy, about the same of modest self-depreciating bullshit and a bucketful of whining. That is as far as your contribution to this discussion gets.
Having seen both versions of your troll story at Delphi, I am going with the “got badly flamed”.
See, I knew you'd find all those puns on your name too irresistible, but I'm not sadistic enough by nature to kick a Troll when he's down.
What puns on my name? What are you going on about now? You don't like kicking troll when they are down? Fascinating! Maybe you should find a troll and test out the theory. It doesn't appear you did so well last time you came across a troll (at Delphi) sounds like they kicked your arse. (Seems too, that you are that desperate to make up for the blow to your ego by trying to convince yourself that (a) I am a troll and (b) I am bought down – presumably by you.)
This is what happens I guess when Nocturnalist's logic is confronted by his larger ego....Nocturnalist's mind wanders some strange places. Go just a little further into the unlit shadows of the unused and obsolete corridors of less rational thought and you may meet Randy.
I can see why you might think I was getting at you again in the above post, but I was just speaking my mind in all honesty (though not sparing your blushes perhaps), just as honest as when I wish anybody get well wishes (not just you, but anybody). I really and honestly do see you as too weak for this. Sorry about that.
What are you saying now? Is this a stream of consciousness exercise to you? Had the meds kicked in and you were feeling a little out of it? What?
You must be careful to stop projecting yourself onto others, otherwise you'll get absolutely nowhere trying to figure others out
Again with the projection and also an assumption I am trying to figure you out. I'm not. I think you are an ass and I have said that all along. I don't care enough to “find the real you”.
I think, Nocturnalist, you ought to rename yourself “Projectionist”. You make me laugh. :lol:
I “honestly” don't want to be you. I know this is probably a blow to your ego, but there you go.
Personally I think the theory of projection whilst in certain context may have application I think you rely on it a little too heavily. I know you said “That is what Freud would say” I think honestly if Freud were here today, he would be more interested in making incestuous claims on our parent's relationship with us and scoring the next hit of cocaine. (Not that I am anti-Freud. His efforts in treating shell shock were very worthy of every mention of his name)
No. Nocturnalist is a three track record. Tough guy...self-depreciating modesty...and whining...Same tune different words. Over, and over.
Need more proof?
I have absolutely no problem with you complaining about me, Sir_Les. I just have a problem .....[ You bring the cheese I have the WHINE]
You are utterly pathetic. I'm probably utterly pathetic also - it won't have been the first time. [Self depreciation. Good to see. Need to spice it up and keep the readers from slipping into a coma]
So, Zach made a mistake in his research. Well who made you a policeman - how many blogs have you read? [ Gives me a exciting lecture and then plays tough guy. I was so impressed . I did not know whether to clap, laugh, shit myself or orgasm.]
Ah, the almighty call out. Well everybody everywhere ought to be duty bound to respond to a call out on Intensity Squared... oh naughty Zach for not doing so. I think he was a wiser person than ....[ self-depreciating bullshit]
Nah, you didn't come across to Gestalt thinking he would respond to the call, you came over to make sport of him and you had no right whatsoever to do that. [ I am in the waaaaaaambulance having a whine]
What an awful person I must be. [ self-depreciation]
I've seen your type often before... [ Nocturnalist likes thinks he knows me and my “type”. Really hard to tell but I think he believes he has a connection thing happening with me. Hard to tell though. I just want to hear him talk about Projection again. Namely me onto him. Sounds sorta weird and pyscho-sexual. It would be worth another laugh at the very least]
This is just one of many posts with it all in.
Course along the way the whole assertion that I was a bully, kind of lost a little credibility, as did the duplicity and whining behind backs, as did Zach not being a member of I2, as did thinking everyone would pile-on to you for some reason, nor that this is some sanctuary I would seek refuge from Big Old Nasty Nocti, as did pretty much everything you say about everything you think you have achieved here and how badly you think I am effected by it.
Still if YOU believe you have done something clever, tough or whatever then that is the main thing isn't it Nocturnalist?
So do you have a gentle glow of joy and feeling that you have contributed immensely to your life? Pretty pathetic in a funny kind of a way.
