@torunn saidYou do know that works both ways torunn it isn't all one way. It always takes two people or more to cause conflict! Always best to let the person speak for themselves torunn. You just spoke for yourself. You can't speak for g-b-s unless he can't speak for himself all of a sudden for some reason.
Maybe he is tired of you being unreasonable at times, and maybe this goes for me too. Maybe you cause more conflicts now than you used to do.

@very-rusty saidThere are people like you who love conflicts and there are people like me who take them when they come.

Edit: I'm sure he can.
@torunn saidI see so you see yourself as always the good person and me as the bad person, that in itself says much. Nice to see where you are at.

@very-rusty saidI'm not saying one thing is better than the other - just that we are totally different personalities.

@ghost-of-a-duke saidPanta Rhea, ephemeral one, and none of us are the old whomevers we used to be.
@divegeester
I sometimes glimpse the old Divegeester and wonder if you are still in there somewhere, beneath the shoulder chips and wallowing sulk.
I would have left out the personal remarks for the sake of Tikkun Olam, if that's what you were aiming for.
Public shaming is a poor way to rebuild bridges. Dive and FM Freddie, please take note. That is intended for your eyes as well.

@torunn saidFor someone who claims not to like conflicts you seem to be in the middle of many going on, some don't even concern you personally! 😉 Look at this Thread over 100 posts so far and counting. Remember me telling you one time people love conflicts. 😉

@kevin-eleven saidThat could actually go for everyone who posts! 😉

I always thought you were one of the nicest people on here. Perhaps the virus has everyone uptight.
I've noticed a division in the forums, I blamed goad for it, but perhaps there are more fingers to point and people perhaps including myself. I've never said I was innocent. Nor have I ever pretended to be.
Well it appears 3 people at least disagree with my statement. I was expecting many more thumbs down.

@very-rusty saidTBH, my friend and comrade in impish clowning, this seems surprisingly controlling for such a lighthearted imp, which is how I generally perceive you to be, although I admit that this revelation of my perception could in itself be perceived as an attempt at control.

Conflict between and among humans is often if not mostly a mental problem: resentment re: attempts at control, or conversely, displeasure re: attempts at control being denied.
But we should go easy on ourselves, because cats get into squabbles, too.
Have you seen "Coming 2 America"? I was usefully reminded of Bruce Lee's advice: "Be water."
The flexing of thought and the clenching of boundaries are understandable given our incarnate nature and its history.
Sorry, I have to pause here to deal with a threefold return incoming because of some magic I did the other day. Oh heck. Also forgot about the Tacere Rule.
