What have you done lately...

In reality, I don't come across many people who pull their trousers down to their ankles.

Your reality.

You must be living in a sheltered environment.

@fmf said
What does "act accordingly" mean?

Good grief FMF!

What will you do when some big mouth bullying thug backs you against the wall, and you know he's going to hurt you really bad?

Wet your pants?

Some guys did it - pulled their trousers down - in the college bar back in the day. Drunken high jinx.

Well, well. This has taken an interesting turn. Is there something you want to say to me about yourself?

Tell me more about you and your environment.

We're talking about you, not me.

You've expressed your disdain for online bullys and people projecting alter egos based on disinhibition syndrome.

Are you sure you're not having feelings about wanting to defend yourself, but are too timid?

There's a difference between 'talking' online and 'doing' in reality.

Not really. I'm more interested in what you have to say about yourself.

Wet my pants? What on earth are you on about?

'You' clearly described for everybody, by your own volition, a situation of clear psychological abuse where, along with other things, you spoke about the brainwashing that had occurred.

On what basis was psychological abuse incorrect? The description (if correct) was your own.

So I trolled divegeester when I mentioned something that he clearly described for everybody, by his own volition, but you weren't trolling me when you kept on bringing up something repeatedly that I had described?

Well, I think online threats of violence are pathetic - in a debate, it's a really rather tragic raising of the rhetorical white flag. You concur, presumably?

"Defend" myself in online discussions? What are you talking about?

"Doing" what?

Why?

@secondson said
Disinhibition syndrome is a simple enough concept relevant to this forum in that posters tend to say things, and say them in a way, not consistent with how they would speak in a setting where anonymity wasn't the rule.

Here is a discussion about it from not so long ago: Thread 176955

When one resorts to online threats in an anonymous website they've lost the debate.
