^who forced you ?

Just an expression.

I am forced to admit. She is better than I thought she’d be in the role. Much better. I was wrong and I am sorry.

I do have a couple of minor complaints about the episode. How could she fall from the sky down into a train without breaking every bone of her body and having to regenerate again?

Near the end of the episode The Doctor talks about having not shopped for women’s clothing for a long time. When would the Doctor have shopped for women’s clothing? This is the first time the Doctor has been female. Don’t tell me about the other selves in the Brain of Morbius. The Time of the Doctor established the number times the Doctor has regenerated. The Doctor has never been a woman until this episode.

The thing about knives. The Doctor needs to learn that knives unlike guns can be used in peaceful ways. Knives are very useful tools at times, that is why we all have them in our kitchen. There is nothing wrong with carrying a knife. Just ask Macgyver.

Btw, I carry a Swiss Army knife.

I guess I am leaving.

What else is there to do?

Bob Falfa, I am sorry about the my rude comments way back when.

Goodbye.

I am just so, so, depressed.

I give up.

Lie. It’s just an amusing moniker.

bullshit.

defends the murder of Botham Jean and condemns peaceful protest:

Lie. Since when is agreeing it was manslaughter and she would be in jail amount to a defense of murder?

He downplayed the suspicious circumstances and is pretending that it’s merely a tragic accident.

He said the person should go to jail. That is not a defense of murder.

It obviously wasn’t and is another example of cops getting special treatment. If I broke into a neighbor’s apartment and shot him to death, I’d be in jail for the rest of my life, most likely.

She didn’t “break in” she thought it was her apartment and the door was open or somehow her key worked on it. I have not heard anything about her breaking the door down or breaking the lock.

As for how long she will get, we will have to wait for a trial and sentencing.

Watching the videos now, but I’m not sure about labeling anyone ot.com’s favorite or least favorite anything. I run the site and I don’t even do that because I don’t speak for the forum as a whole, nor do I want people thinking we’re endorsing anything officially. I know that’s probably not how you meant it, but still.

That had to do with me. I linked to a couple of guy’s videos, so MFM had to make wisecrack here about it.

moviefreakedmind said:

As for entitlement, I’m assuming that comes from your insistence that I be banned and my threads be deleted even though they don’t violate forum rules.

get it right, I complained about 1 and only 1 thread, your police thread. When you changed the name to something less offensive, I stopped complaining. I’ve left you alone in that thread(until today). Yet you keep bringing it up again and again, and mis-characterize it like you did here.

Why, though?

Why does it matter? Why can’t you drop it?

Why should I have too? Why should I let him get away with it? Why do you only go after me but not MFM?

moviefreakedmind said:

I didn’t insult you and I post things in response to you because you post a lot and when I find something objectionable, I point it out. That’s how discussions work.

That is how conversation should work. But you take further. You are rude about it. You go for the low blow. You attack the person instead of the stance(like when you falsely accused me of being a blind nationalist, flag worship, caring more about order than justice, of using the daughters of dead soldiers as shields).

Or the fact that he quoted my quote of your post to respond to rather than your actual post. That would be insulting to me.

The person in question already knows why I am not engaging with him. He is free to take it to the mods. But I suggest he quote which rule he thinks I’ve broken. I would also point out that I think he has been very insulting to me in the last month or so.

moviefreakedmind said:

It is pretty insulting. I, however, have no intention of begging for moderator intervention.

Mark my words. Give it a while and you’ll have disregarded your internet restraining order on me and there’ll be someone else that you think is evil and out to get you for no reason. We’ve all seen this shit many times.

Well you’ve won that. You antagonized me until I responded congrads.

Collipso said:

you don’t have to take everything personally. in fact, you should barely take anything personally.

Maybe I do take too much too personally, but some is clearly meant that way.

but, again, only you have the power to change yourself, and i’m 100% sure you have that power. come on, man.

I don’t know how to change or what to change or if I want to change and I am not sure I have the power.

it’s been 15 years and you’re apparently the same in this regard.

really?

just wake up some day and be like “i’m not being attacked personally on that star wars forum.” we’ve been telling you over and over (apparently throughout the years) that it’s not the case, so it’s really all inside your head.

It is not that simple and it is not all inside my head. I admit there are times when I’ve misunderstood and taken things personally that weren’t intended that way. But lets fact there have been times where I have been personally attacked.

I may regret this but I think I have to stand up for myself.

Not when they are continuing to make false accusations and insults about me, it is not “so fucking easy”.

That’s never happened. Name one false accusation or insult that I’ve thrown at you since you threw your fit.

If anything, you’re the one making false accusations. You’re the one painting me to be some mean, horrible bully that’s harassing you, when it’s obvious to everyone that that isn’t the case.

Newflash: you don’t speak for everyone. If they do believe that, it is because you’ve successfully fooled them.

I love how almost everything you accuse other people of doing, you have done yourself.

bull.

You’re the one that threw insults in the anthem debate, which is why you got banned and no one else did.

more bullshit. I didn’t throw any insults until you pushed me too far and I lost my temper. Before I lost my temper, you have very rude and insulting and had said multiple false things about me.

You’re the one being overly-sensitive and whiny when you claim everyone else is an “SJW” in the politics thread.

I didn’t claim everyone was an sjw. I talked about an sjw mindset. I only used the word one time.

Can’t you get at least somewhere near accurate in your assertions?

You’re the one that has vendettas against people when you claim everyone else has a vendetta against you.

It is obvious you have a vendetta against me. You’ve had one ever since I told you wasn’t going to engage with you anymore. You’ve also made plenty of passive-aggressive jibes at me.

You’re the one making passive-aggressive little jibes at me in spite of your sad restraining order when you claim that you’re trying to pretend I don’t exist. It’s astounding.

I’ve done that because I felt I was forced. When someone is constantly lying about you, it is hard to just ignore it. I tried stay away from engaging with you, but you’ve made that impossible.

Possessed said:

Okay what I said earlier was too harsh and not true. Saying I’ve never liked you isn’t really true or a reasonable thing to say, and I apologize for that.

And it’s not entirely accurate for me to say I don’t like you now either. A more truthful way to put it is that I don’t like how you’ve been acting lately.

feel free to tell me why/what you don’t like how I’ve been acting lately:

https://originaltrilogy.com/topic/Give-Warbler-Feedback/id/59418/page/2

I’ve already said all I needed to say about it, just subtract such Hyperbolic statements such as “I’ve never liked you” as those were over the top and also not really true.

understood. I am glad you changed your mind about the words “I’ve never liked you”

This. This shit right here. This is fucking childish. And a perfect example of the entitled attitude you carry around with you.

Entitled attitude? I could maybe see someone thinking it childish, but entitled attitude?

Yep.

Mods would not intervene

Because they’re not at your beck and call to punish anyone you don’t like. That’s entitlement. Thinking the mods are your own personal police force that will ban anyone you complain to them about.

I never believed that the mods were at my beck and call. I certainly don’t believe they are my own personal police force. I know they are not.

so I took the only solution I could think of and decided to not engage with him anymore.

While loudly announcing so. Like a child telling his friend “Will you tell so-and-so that I’m not speaking to him anymore?” when so-and-so is sitting right there.

Loudly? I announced it so he and everyone else would know what I was doing and why. I did it in hopes that he would leave me alone. I admit it hasn’t worked the way I wanted.

You think everyone here has to treat you exactly the way you want them to treat you at all times, and if they don’t, they’re being unreasonable or bullying or harassing and you run and call for Wook or Jay.

No, I just think everyone should treat everyone with respect. But yes, if I feel harassed and bullied and I feel the rules have been violated, I will go to Jay and the mods. But believe me, they won’t do anything merely on my request. They will only do something if they believe something should be done and/or if they believe the rules were violated.

And sometimes they take your side just to shut you up for a while,

I guarantee you Jay and the mods don’t do that. They wouldn’t take my side just to shut me up. If they wanted to shut me up they would tell me to shut up.

When it’s so fucking easy to just stop responding and skip over people’s posts if you don’t like what they’re saying.

Not when they are continuing to make false accusations and insults about me, it is not “so fucking easy”.

That’s probably what I’m about to do with this conversation myself, though I guess that depends how you react to this post.

Well I can’t stop you if you wish to do that. I have participated in hopes I could understand where others are coming from and see whatever fault I share in this. Yet if you and others decide to cease the conversation, coming to an understanding will be impossible if it is not already.

I’m trying to help you understand how your behavior affects others, and how that affects the way they behave towards you. It’s created a feedback loop where you get offended or upset by one little thing and it just spirals until someone gets banned or leaves the forum in a huff.

It is possible that I have caused someone or multiple someones to leave the forum in a huff. But I don’t think anyone has ever been banned merely because I was offended. The Jay and the mods don’t like me enough to do that. Jay and the mods only ban people because they want to, not because of anything I do or say.

Believe it or not, I want to help you get to a point where you can enjoy coming here again and can interact with other posters without them feeling like there tiptoeing through a minefield. But I think it might be too late for that.

It may well be too late. I hope and wish it is not, but I do not honestly know. I honestly believe you are trying to help me, even if I do not agree with everything you say. I thank you for trying even if it does not work out.

I am really not sure what to do about all of this.

You say “I’m sorry you feel that I’m acting entitled, and I apologize for frequently acting persecuted. I’ll try to behave better in the future.” You mean what you say when you say that, and then you drop it. If necessary, you change the subject.

Well I am not going to apologize for anything until I believe and feel something is my fault.

Don’t say you already apologized because, if necessary, you apologize again.

I apologized for a specific situation. I don’t see why I should apologize for it again and again. When I made the first apology, I meant it. I don’t know why that situation keeps being brought up again and again after I already admitted I was wrong and apologized.

Don’t say “I’m sorry but [some reason or other]”

Wouldn’t that depend upon the legitimacy of the “[some reason or other]”?

or “I’ll apologize to this person but not that person.”

I’ll apologize when I feel I have done something wrong. If I feel I have wronged person A but not person B, I don’t see why I can’t apologize to person A but not to person B.

You admit that they’re right—whether they actually are or not-

Why would I admit someone is right when I don’t believe that??

–endeavor to improve yourself (because at the end of the day, your own behavior is all you have control over), and move on down the road. If it comes up again, you do it again.

Easier said than done.

Entitled attitude? I could maybe see someone thinking it childish, but entitled attitude? Regardless, I didn’t see any reasonable means of coming to an understanding with the person in question. It takes two people to do that and he wasn’t listening and was being unreasonable, rude, and insulting(and it led me to lose my temper and insult in return). His reaction to my decision to not engage with him anymore make it even more clear to me that he is an unreasonable and irrational person. Mods would not intervene so I took the only solution I could think of and decided to not engage with him anymore. I admit it hasn’t worked as well as I had hoped. I had hoped that we could just leave each alone, but that wasn’t good enough for the person in question.

You can’t disable Presidential alerts on cell phones. In fact, I’m pretty sure they’re the only ones you can’t disable.

Hmmm, I have to say I don’t like that.

chyron8472 said:

I had all of the Emergency Alerts on my phone disabled except “Show Extreme Threats”. Severe Threats, Amber Alerts, and Public Safety Alerts are all unchecked, and yet this stupid test message got through.

Jokes about Trump being an “extreme threat to life and property” aside, I’m annoyed that this message couldn’t be prevented.

I guess you should have disabled “Extreme Threats”.

Ah, I haven’t seen any version of that for years and I have never read the book.
