The Message ... What, if anything, did you take away from it?
Time

The message I took away was “I wasn’t loved enough as a child and now I think it’s funny to be a prat on the Internet because I have literally nothing else to do with my life.”

That’s usually how it is with trolls. There’s no deeper significance, no message, no meaning. Trying to ascribe one is like saying the volcano erupted because a god was angered, or trying to read the future through tea dregs.

Last movie seen

He’s pretty much what you saw in the movie. He’s gotten progressivly more ridiculous as time has gone on to the point where he’s kinda a meme-y joke character in my mind.

I think the most intriguing thing about Deadpool as a character is that he realizes that he’s a character in a comic book (hence all the fourth-wall breaking) and so reacts and acts accordingly. But he’s also literally insane.

Yeah, it happens right before they overlook the Falcon (“You came in that thing?!”) (which is why they’re looking worriedly behind them as the scene starts).

They basically hide their guns to sneak past these two officers. Meanwhile the entire station is on alert so it doesn’t make any sense. Best that it’s gone.

I don’t mind the banter in the OT, but this scene seems like it would’ve been a bit too on the nose for humour.

Although it makes me wonder what Star Wars would look like if it were edited ever so slightly differently.

Yep, I think it was a great example of prudent editing choices.

Perhaps quoting a block of quoted text with an individual’s name mentioned where they might not like it to be mentioned is compounding the problem.

I would never take these sorts of compulsions lightly.
They can be all consuming, they can hurt but the focus of that attention should not have to have google glue their name to you (even as a pseudonym).

Everybody lets edit the name out of the posts but respect the ache.

I’ve [REDACTED] her name in my post.

The ache is not healthy after a certain point, and that point was reached many years ago. Honestly he should probably get some help.

Yes to all.
