just ignore and let this one die

If you read your own PMs you would know that my forum mailbox is full (and deliberately kept so) so I have received no such communication from you, and in any case a public act requires an equally public retraction.

Pep (Perhaps if you are going to be thoughtless you should refrain from posting while in an over-emotional over-reacting state.)

I'll grant you this: you've added "over-reacting" to your shtick. See, you can evolve!

Is Peewee being all emo again?

But surely you can see, that same thing applies to me? That I am disinterested in 'your' view of the situation? lol And to me, only my opinion counts. You cannot 'make' me view you as an enemy, no matter how you view me. Again, although I may be your enemy, you are not mine. If I am your enemy, that is your choice. Neither of us makes those designations for the other, only for ourselves.

No, in point of fact, you HAVE received notice of a PM from me, and were told that you could not open it because your box was full. So you know full well that I sent you something. What did you think it was about, a solicitation of your opinion on my hair colour?

You REALLY want to do this publicly? You are the ONLY one here who interpreted that posting in the way that you did.

So here is the text of what I wrote in the PM. Enjoy.

We are obviously in violent agreement.

Pep (So why are you posting? To reinforce the accuracy of my perception? It isn't necessary.)

Scylla had already stated her apology for her post by this post of your. So stop being a twatwaffle and accept it gracefully.

We see what you are really made of.

For all I knew you might have been wishing cancer upon me, or filling up a message with fifty repetitions of the word "troll".

Pep (It has been known.)

Yes, I'm sure I have a reputation for sending PMs that are full of mindless vituperation.

A beautiful shot - very nice of the passerby to take it and give it to you.

Just out of curosity, did you get the mailbox is full message?

Yep.

I accept your apology. As far as I know I am the only person in this thread who has accepted any apologies. I know for certain that several of my own apologies have been thrown back in my face.

I am adept at infuriating people because I am adept at most things I do, because I may not always take the content seriously, but I *do* take the mechanisms of expression seriously. If something is worth doing it is worth doing well. Most of the posters here do not engage their brains before posting, many not bothering actually to read the original posts that they respond to, or if they do they do not demonstrate they have understood what has been written. As an example, you suggested I called the charity event "unfair" when I did no such thing, describing the charity itself in that manner. If I am going to have to fight that sort of ignorance then I will use my abilities to expose it, in the hope that some participants might become less lackadaisical and offer the opportunity for stimulating dialogue, as opposed to political correctness, motherhood and apple pie, all fairly badly expressed.

Pep (You asked, I answered.)

Thanks! Yes, it was nice of him! . . . although at first I was mildly ... um, perturbed? ... that he'd been taking pics of me without my knowledge. But I suppose that happens all the time.

He did another one too. It's a nice shot, but not as interesting, I think.

II like this one a bit better actually.

Thank you.


I did, and you did.

It's a given that there are different modes of responding effectively to what people say, and they produce different effects. What I am suggesting is that your choice of mode too often seems designed to elicit an emotional reaction, rather than a logical one. Producing an emotional response is one way of "winning," in that it often makes the other person look foolish or, yes, over-emotional, but it isn't really very constructive in terms of exploring or examining the question at hand.

Me too.

They both look lonely but the second one has a hopeful feel. The car and the road seem to show that this is more of a choice. A welcome time of solitude.

Wow - it sure doesn't take much time to catch up when I'm simply scrolling past folks bickering. Of course, those posts do help get us close to the 100,000 mark.

I guess it's a nicer shot of my avi. But it's not as evocative of the "feeling" of the installation, I think.

Nah, the car wants to kill her. Like in that Stephen King book.

You finally accepted her apology, but you didn't manage to do it gracefully. Better than nothing I suppose.

Oh, very cool! Ok, nicely put. I hadn't thought of it that way.

LOL!!!

Yeah, only in SL would sit down in the middle of the road. (Usually.)

for the record, i'm not involved in any feud. Pep doesn't like me because i can see right through him and call him on it occasionally. he's a woman hater and a hateful, unhappy little man. that sort of douchebaggery has no place in my daily rituals. other than that, i find him hilarious, in a "i'm pointing and laughing at you, you wacky cartoon character" kind of way. that is all.

I do my part for both goals. I'm a "nemesis" you know!
