In response to "I found his post somewhat inflamatory " by eag

Well his mistake is trying to think for us, thinking those of us getting picked on hate it as much as he did.

Posted by Bacon (aka redmond) Aug 15 '14, 20:45

I made the same mistake. I figured since I liked being goofed on he did too. But then just because he doesn't like it, doesn't mean that I don't as well.

Typical failure in human communication. You think just because you feel some way about something you assume someone you know will react and feel the same way.

Everyone has made a mistake here I guess. He claims people that didn't know must be delusional.

Well, then call me delusional because I had absolutely no freaking idea it bothered him. None...

Its easier to point fingers in different directions than to point the finger at yourself - eag Aug 15, 20:51
I may be wrong but I think he means David's pot. -- nm - ... Aug 15, 20:46 32

  - My guess is Eag is referring to this part of Mop's post. - Bacon Aug 15, 20:48 30
    - Thats excatly what im talking about. - eag Aug 15, 20:52 27
      - He is cleary very hurt. It's a venting post. I agree with almost all of David's post above. Plenty of blame to go around -- nm - Bacon Aug 15, 20:57 18
        
        I would venture to guess there is more going on with him then just this - eag Aug 15, 21:01
        
        I get salty in and around my birthday. I wonder if that is a similar tipping point for him. - David Aug 15, 20:59 16
        
        I have been divorced twice, but never had kids. It is the suck. - Bacon Aug 15, 21:01 5
        
        Your wife left you when you were suck? What were the details there? - David Aug 15, 21:03 4
        
        Oh there are always two sides to every story. If you want a little bit of a lengthy read here are the details. - Bacon Aug 15, 21:22
        
        Heh - "when you were suck" - Roger More Aug 15, 21:07 2
        
        It's always the thread for it -- nm - Bacon Aug 15, 21:25
        
        Shaddup. -- nm - David Aug 15, 21:08
        
        And maybe ut's because he's found himself in an increasingly better place in real life and realizes that maybe ST isn't that great a place for him. - ... Aug 15, 21:01 9
        
        And thats fine - eag Aug 15, 21:05 8
        
        Fingers need to be pointed. And it wasn't that inflammatory. -- nm - ... Aug 15, 21:14 7
        
        If you're going to point fingers, point fingers at people. Don't go all martyr and cast other people as victims of the same cause you're leaving to - Will Hunting Aug 15, 21:23 4
        
        And you don't point back and tell them to look into the mirror without first doing it yourself. - ... Aug 15, 21:28 3
        
        You want David to take responsibility for Mop admitting to posting old news on purpose and spoiling a movie on Facebook? - Will Hunting Aug 15, 21:30 2
        
        What the F? -- nm - ... Aug 15, 21:31 1
        
        I assumed that you were talking about David since he suggested Mop look in the mirror for his role in this....but I guess you intended it to be - Will Hunting Aug 15, 21:36
        
        Totally disagree on both points. -- nm - eag Aug 15, 21:19 1
        
        So? -- nm - ... Aug 15, 21:22
      - I've been told that by others than him. - ... Aug 15, 20:56 7
        
        Not told to leave but asked why you would stay where you are unhappy. That's an important distinction. -- nm - TWuG Aug 15, 21:04 6
        
        Exactly -- nm - eag Aug 15, 21:06 5
        
        Actually told to leave too, by others. -- nm - ... Aug 15, 21:08 4
        
        Though you do realize that what you said comes off the same as saying why don't just leave? -- nm - ... Aug 15, 21:12 3
        
        But YOU are still here right? - eag Aug 15, 21:17 2
        
        No. I'm still here because ther a people I want stay in touch with. - ... Aug 15, 21:21 1
        
        You and I have had our ups and downs. Might be on a big downer lately - Bacon Aug 15, 21:24
    - Yes. nm - Dignan Aug 15, 20:49 1
      - (But a pretty good example of how text without inflection or context can be *completely* misconstrued.) - Dignan Aug 15, 20:51
