Past couple of days, yes.

Sorry to say this, but I agree.

Don’t be sorry, I can handle it.

Of course, you would also think a grown man could handle another man who is effeminate and/or gay, or a few internet people who think it’s weird that he likes My Little Pony, especially without having to start daydreaming about ripping those people’s throats out, but you’d be wrong.

I don’t wanna give away who it was about in public, though. PM me if you want to know.

Case in point.

Oooh a gotcha moment. You must feel vindicated.

Thing is I’m not denying anything in this thread. I just don’t really care that much.

You’re pretty good at hiding behind your pain, you know. You say you don’t care, but you do. The reason why you behave the way you do is to try to cover it up.

Thank you for your commentary, Dr. Chyron.

You’re welcome. As someone who has had issues myself, and talked to a professional about it, I’ve been made somewhat aware of general reason why people might display certain behaviors. I’m no psychologist, but one doesn’t have to have a doctorate to make an educated guess.

Psychoanalyzing someone from a distance is a pretty stupid thing to do.

I’m just commenting on the behavior you openly display here.

And for the record, when I said I was imagining ripping your throat out, it was entirely in response to your constant goading and ridicule. The subject matter was irrelevant. And it was only referring to the heat of that moment.

…Also, you didn’t say I was incorrect in my analysis.

You are wildly incorrect in your analysis.

I don’t believe you.

Then “you didn’t say I was incorrect in my analysis” is also a stupid thing to say.

Regardless, believe what you like. I believe you cannot know people well based on what they type on the internet, but obviously you and ender feel otherwise.

You know this already, of course. But your mask of putting humor on everything gives away why you do it.

I don’t think an unarmed nut has much of a chance at killing a lot of people by going into a police state and trying to take gun from a cop. If a nut tried that, he’d probably be stopped very quickly by other armed cops.

But would still have an opportunity to kill people. There’s no guarantee he would be dropped before taking the opportunity to fire several bullets into the bodies of nearby officers.

Aw man my perfect track record ruined.

It really is fun reading back through this thread, you guys should try it too. Everything’s already been said but don’t let me stop you now since I’m still enjoying every post.

you have a heart of gold and can be one of the kindest and nicest people around here.

Yes please.

The fact that this thread exists indicates that there is some truth to it, and the fact that it gets bumped periodically by different people reflects that the sentiment is shared at times and not based on an isolated incident. While I enjoy your humor and think you are generally a great guy, I think your greatest weaknesses are: 1) an ardent refusal to admit that you were wrong or a contributor to a problem;

Disagree.

  1. a need to perpetually harass members who have wronged you instead of letting the conflict die off;

You’ll pay for that.

  1. dismissiveness towards this who disagree with you instead of respect for their perspectives;

[eyeroll]

  1. defensiveness when your flaws are pointed out;

Not true!

and 5) insensitivity to others’ sensibilities while maintaining extreme sensitivity to your own.

I hate Mormons.

I’d love to read a reply from you that doesn’t demonstrates one of these.

Dammit.

Darth Ender should have added “6) refuses to give intelligent and honest responses and instead responses with sarcasm, jokes, and wise cracks”.

Yeah but then I would have been required by contract to post a Ric pic.

Yes, and why is that? Why do you admittedly refuse to give intelligent and honest responses and instead respond with sarcasm, jokes, and wise cracks when people obviously are interested in an intelligent and honest response?

to those who like to dump on TV’s Frink: how about you create your own threads inviting feedback and see how you like it? seems only fair to me.

So I should make a My Little Pony thread? 😄

Think you made his point there. Unless you’re ready for the criticism this time.

Maybe. And no.

But I didn’t ask.

But you did answer.

I mean I didn’t ask for criticism as you have with this thread. Whether it was a serious thread or not, you still got serious responses.

Also I was joking in my answer. No, I’m not ready for criticism about that because 1) I already know it’s negative, and 2) I’m honestly pretty insecure. I hate having the spotlight.

But I didn’t ask. Truthfully, if you didn’t want the criticism you could have the thread locked. But I get the feeling you like the attention.

I love this thread so much.

Mainly because it’s about me.

Don’t take this as an attack, but if you treat people in real life the way you treat people here at times, it’s a wonder to me that you have lasting relationships. I just don’t see how people in real life would welcome or tolerate it.

Not that I have many RL friends myself, but I could certainly say if I was as snide to people IRL as you are here sometimes, my wife wouldn’t want to go anywhere with me.

I think many on here have some, if not varying degrees of all of those flaws you posted there d_e, yourself included.

If you’re going to try and use this thread to try and goad Frink - or carry on/escalate from the ‘[fill in the blank] Just Died!’ thread - then think on mate.

Of course we all have such flaws. But there is no doubt that Frink’s character is unique to this forum, usually in a pleasant sense, periodically to an aggravating sense.

However, I am not trying to goad or escalate anything. I was trying to follow mrebo’s advice from that thread:

darth_ender said:

To be honest, I genuinely feel you’re not as enjoyable or nice as you used to be. Or maybe I’m just nicer than I used to be, leading me to sit on my high horse. 😛

I think you and Warb are just suffering faulty memory, but ok.

Im getting flashbacks of the Luke Skywalker debate. I think Frink is as delightful as ever 🐣

I think we should give the dead the respect they deserve in this thread and not get bogged down in petty internecine fights (definition provided for Dom’s benefit).

I don’t see how I am goading him. I was not rude or disrespectful. I am trying to converse in a more appropriate thread about what I feel is a problem. I am handling it in a very adult-like fashion, and frankly, I don’t need a moderator to tell me how to talk with another adult unless things get out of hand. So far, I don’t believe we’re even close to that point.

What’s more, you swooped in on my comment in the ‘[fill in the blank] Just Died!’ thread because a lack of careful phrasing made it look like a portion of my comment was a broad generalization, even though the latter part of the comment should have clarified. You quickly corrected me and stated that I shouldn’t generalize (to which I agreed) and presumably accepted my point that liberals and atheists should be respectful of religious/conservative individuals who have died. Literally, you castigated me for not using the word ‘many’ in one of two appropriate places. Meanwhile, Frink’s disrespectful comments, both before and after that, received no moderation, and they were clearly far more offensive.

Following all this, I come to this thread to carry on what I hope will be a productive conversation and where Frink might actually acknowledge that he has been ruder lately, and whom do you call out? Me. Never mind the goading that Frink gives chyron8472 routinely. Never mind the harassment that he leveled against Warbler in the NFL thread leading up to the Super Bowl, refusing for pages to acknowledge that he should back down. Never mind the instances where he decides to pick on yhwx and where it clearly is hurting his feelings. Never mind his lack of remorse on most of these occasions. No, call out darth_ender, who 95% of the time tries to be the peace maker. I really appreciate that.

Regardless of whether or not I agree with you (which I actually do, to an extent), I don’t think making yourself out to be the savior of behavioral decency on the forum is really helpful to this discussion.

I don’t think he is saying that. I think he’s saying jason isn’t being fair by refraining from calling out Frink as often as he should in contrast to how he just called out _ender for nothing really.

But this is Frink’s thread, and Frink himself asked the question. So _ender’s point is valid in responding when it’s relevant.

You expect him to respond only when it’s not relevant?

Having trouble with sarcasm again I see.

oojason is being sarcastic?
I-is…is he even capable of that anymore?

chyron | ˈkīrän |
noun trademark

Oh. Okay then.

How’d you choose your username?

I basically took it from a movie. The rest of the relevant explanation is a dumb story because the movie is awful and I was a teenager with silly ideas.

The movie I took it from is Lawnmower Man 2, and the primary turns-out-to-be-the-antagonist is going to use the “Chiron chip” to take over the world.

I didn’t know how it was spelled until I already picked the name and started using it everywhere.

 
I would like to honestly say it’s because Chiron is the name of the centaur who trains Hercules (and Jason, et al.) because that sounds cooler but it wouldn’t be true.

My friend and I liked the first movie (which is not awful) because it was about using VR to improve the capabilities of the human mind. (Nevermind that the person who gains mental abilities goes psycho and kills everyone.) I always thought the sequel was bad, but I just liked the name Chyron [sic] so I took it for myself.

Chyron on CNN: “Trump blames video games, movies for violence by youth.”

What? What are you talking about?

JEDIT: Wait… you’re talking about what’s-his-face who said violence in [media] has desensitized our culture? I don’t disagree with that but it doesn’t, by itself, make people violent. If anything it just makes the rest of us less likely to do anything in response when something violent happens.

But I would never blame violence specifically in video games, given that I myself am a gamer.
