WoW! i have to say that i am kind of shocked here...actually, kind of disappointed too. I thought more of Ravens family i guess. This seems out of character................or, perhaps it's just the way i took it. Not sure yet. I'm going to think a bit more about this.

Have a nice evening...

Oh, don't be a big martyr. Are you really upset by the responses you get from a bunch of faceless strangers on the Collarme boards? The more energy you spend grousing about your persecutors, the less energy you have for anything else.

But I get the feeling you LIKE playing the role of the despised one.

Greetings,

The sky *is* blue. And the grass *is* green.

Why is the sun yellow
Because of its temperature (you can roughly consider it as a black body, therefore its temperature (5700K if my memory is excellent) makes it look yellow.

and blood red??????
Because of the iron in the haemoglobin.

My original supposition: "If you post something as simple as "The sky is blue" youre going to get argued with. Why? Because the minute your name pops up.. thats the response it generates. You seem to have become the anti-christ, so can we see how far it goes?"

Now granted, the responses were not as bad as I thought they would be. I fully expected a "How dare you say the sky is blue? Its not blue over my house. How dare you assume, you horrible Gorean asshole?" Im rather thrilled that noone actually did that.. but the fact that I assumed they would should probably say something about what Ive been seeing lately.

At any rate.. it was a fun experiment. Have a lovely day everyone.

I found it amusing that statements of "persecution complex" tossed about. That is an inaccurate assessment. What is accurate is a double standard. I am hardly the only person who posts inflammetory comments. What's "sad" is that the majority of you all are too thin skinned to deal with it.

i sympathise, but i don't think trying to provoke disagreement is the right way. i'm not sure you've been disrepected for being Gor, but if it has happened it is an example of what i have complained about on another thread...we do not show enough respect when we disagree, some of us, prefering instead to attack the poster. *sigh*

Heya pinkpleasures,

Honestly? The original post shouldnt have provoked disagreement. *chuckles* I mean.. it was fairly inocuous. And the whole thing wasnt really meant to be cruel, either. More than anything I found it amusing. His popularity *grins* is a source of constant amusement for me. When he first started posting here I winced... alot. I had hoped he would temper his comments to fit in better and then I realised that wanting that was wanting him to change. Now, I just try to find the humor of it all. I no longer worry about how others take what he says. In the end, it doesnt really matter, afterall. We have a few close friends on these boards that either one or both of us have known for years and the opinion of the rest is.. well.. inconsequential. After all, they dont affect our lives. (But still, I admit, I get a giggle out of it all now)

Have a peachy day,
