Thin skinned, vindictive and deceitful.

Not a very attractive combination.
That's how it appears.
I changed it to mess with Lokie (it was the 2nd time today he'd been snarky)
Trig's going great. I'm not sure what my average is but it's anywhere between a B+ and an A- (I haven't failed anything yet). Khan Academy and the tutors in the math lab are a real boon.
Lokie made a comment about your food. You called his mother a prostitute. That hardly seems equal and can support Lokie's conclusion. It was also one of Abe's traits.

JJ liked your post about food then you changed it into a personal attack on Lokie. I would not be pleased to have it construed that I gave my imprimatur to a personal attack on another forum member, when all I did was like a food post. Another negative trait ole editing Abe displayed.

I don't call a new person, or obvious sock, an Abe because I believe they are Abe. I have used that term to describe a certain aggregation of social traits and behaviors that I find unattractive.

I know you wish to fit in here. I know you have some social challenges, and that is why I'm taking the time to try to explain this to you. I hope you do well in your trig and that you roll with the smack talk with better grace.

I don't necessarily want to "fit in." I come in and drop some funny memes and chitchat a bit. If somebody doesn't like something I post they can ignore it, hit the ignore button for my profile, or simply keep scrolling on. But continuing to post sarcastic responses to things that I post deserves a little bit of a response and I thought it was just a little fun we were having.

I also think that we come from different generations and have different ideas about what is and isn't acceptable; I think it also dictates how we perceive certain posts.

It's also obvious that a few of you have been friends in here for quite some time and like each other's posts regardless of what was posted and/or have each other's backs despite who initiated something. I also wasn't aware that there was a degree of grace involved in smack talking. It really is kind of clique-ish in here, or so it seems at times. I also hereby apologize to JJ and recognize that you had a valid point regarding his liking my post.

You do wish to fit in, thus your posting memes, chitchat etc. I doubt you'd be contented if nobody liked or commented on your input.

To the blue: This is good advice, but you do not see it applying to you. That sort of hypocrisy was characteristic of the malefactor whose behavior you are adopting/displaying.

To the bolded: You posted a chimichanga that looked like the dog decided not to keep it. Lokie replied mildly, and you escalated to saying his mother was a prostitute. This is out of all proportion, and it speaks directly to what Annie termed [social] grace.

To the green: Please tell me in which American generation it has ever been within the forms to call someone's mother a prostitute.

To the red: Yes; there is. You may not wish to inspect or acknowledge the fact of it, but I for one am noticing what I would term contempt for the local culture.

I do believe you owe more of an apology to lokie than the (appropriate) one you gave doublejj. This is assuming that the generation with which you identify is familiar with the concept of apology.

This was the second time that day that Lokie had given a snarky reply to one of my posts. You can say what you want about the pic of the chimichanga that I uploaded, I've got a lot of likes and comments on another social media platform that I posted it onto. Again, he had already given a cynical response from another of my posts... but you only want to focus on my reaction. Clique-ish

Making fun of each other's mothers has been a part of the American culture for some time now. You could google "yo mama" and see for yourself. It's been in pop culture for some time now. They even had a TV show called "Yo Mama." If you're a baby boomer then you may not understand. I don't mean that disrespectfully, I'm just saying.

You can accuse me of having contempt for the local culture... I assume you mean you, lokie, curious, and the sj sharks fan or whatever his avatar is. You guys aren't the only ones in here and I doubt you speak for every member despite the fact that you guys are much more active than the rest. Presumptuous. And if you have a "local culture" then where is the inclusiveness? Not everyone will post things that you adore and vice versa. Again, it wasn't very nice of me to change my post to make Lokie look silly, but it wasn't nice of him to, twice in one day, give shitty responses to posts I made. You want to make accusations that I have contempt for the local culture (and by that, I mean posting things that three or four of you may not like), even as you completely disregard the fact that dude had contempt for my local culture. Lots of people smother food in queso or chili. People make goulash, and sometimes it looks like a mash of many things. What may look disgusting to one group might be a delicacy to another. And you want to talk about respect for your "local culture" after somebody made fun of an ethnic dish that I cooked? I think what you mean is this: do things that me and my friends will like, even if one of us has said or done something to you that you may not like.

If you were paying attention, you'd see that "cool kids" come and go on a regular basis.

How's your stress level?
I'm usually at my worst on RIU when something very bad is going down in real life. :cuss:

You may wish to consider putting the picture of your chimichanga back up so that JJ has liked a food post. That would be a kind thing to do.

Not sure who the "cool kids" are. To me these are all the same... individuals that are posting online.

This isn't me at my worst. This is me returning the favor to somebody that was trying to troll me. And of course all his long time friends jump in and make it out as if I'm thin-skinned... even though they're the ones making a big deal out of something.

I actually thought it looked good.
Presentation could have been better but ugly food doesn't scare me. :eyesmoke:
Thanks. Yeah, if I was cooking for a congressman I might have tried a little harder. It was comfort food. I actually have a lot of likes and comments on it from people on another social media site. I guess people like to throw stones? Peculiar that when I throw them back that I draw the heat. Oh well.

I've cooked a few dog's breakfasts myself that were delicious.
It's all relative as I stated to Cannabineer in a reply. What seems gross to some may be a delicacy to others. I know the idea of eat cheese, curdled milk, is abhorrent to some people. Other people don't like the idea of drinking cow's blood. I've seen Mexican food drizzled/lathered in many different sauces.
