You mean the passive aggressiveness you display here often?
You're the one mis-terming what GB does as "passive-aggressive".
To be "passive-aggressive", there has to be aggression, which he lacks (even though you mindlessly paint him with that brush) and which you display in spades.
He is trying to launch an attack or criticism of sorts but doesn't do so directly - can't just come out and say it - tosses the aggressive sentiments into the mix without having the courage to simply call a spade a spade.
This is "passive aggression", Suzianne. You don't seem to know what the term means. I am very rarely guilty of it here, contrary to what you mistakenly claim. I am forthright and absolutely clear about what I think, what I disagree with, what I say, who I am talking to, and what I am talking about. For all intents and purposes, I display the opposite of "passive aggression".
Originally posted by StartreaderSurely one can just Google for quotations using - for example - the word "hate" or "hater" or "hated" and then simply copy paste one of the things somebody else wrote that come up on the screen? How can that be described as demonstrating "considerable original thought"?
A facility for quotation shows considerable original thought in finding the apt quotation in the first place.

Originally posted by Grampy BobbyDo you ever wonder whether your constant resort to copy pasting unoriginal material ~ quite obviously with the intention of sneering at community members you disapprove of but without the nerve to actually confront these critics ~ could be justifiably seen as a "weakness" of your own behaviour on this internet public forum and that the supposed "cruelty" and "ills [you] suffer" might simply be an understandable ignominy that you bring upon yourself?

No it doesn't. A facility for quotation shows considerable original thought in finding the apt quotation in the first place.

Originally posted by FMFThats touching to see you defend your other half of the bromance, yes, very touching indeed.
He is no more "stalking" Grampy Bobby than you are "stalking" divegeester. Your blatant hypocrisy is not as funny as you seem to think it is.
The problem is your self assuming approach is not as precise as you seem to think, infact its simply unadulterated hogwash if I am honest. There was no attempt at humour. Perhaps if you simply refrain from assuming anything, you may do better. You could hardly do any worse.
Yup GB has no fear of lacking attention while you stalk this site like a goat shaped daemon, lurking and waiting to pounce on every vestige of humanity so that you can suck the life from it.
I will be taking no lessons in morality from you. Thats for sure.
Originally posted by FMFIts ok , GB has nothing to fear from a lack of attention with you and your boyfriend around, thats for sure. Wow lessons in etiquette from a forum vampire, how droll 😵
Just calling you out on your clumsy hypocrisy, and your ludicrous use of the word "stalking", that's all robbie.

Aren't you a grown man ~ in your forties? What are you posting stuff like this on a message board for?
