There it is...pocket pundits left operations. Yeah you got me, but who uses the term gaslighting I am positive it is not me.
Its ok there are references you younger guys AND older guys dont catch there is nothing wrong with an 80s reference unless it is that the sole purpose you had was to try and cry foul again...

Nah no loss if you do not know the quote, no need to try and lay that trap in this case. You didnt know the reference just scoot along and find something positive to do with your day.

"Au contraire, mon frere" was an 80's phrase that is literally just a french phrase. Any on who has taken French I, an really anyone over a certain age, knows this phrase.
WSC is mispronouncing/misusing/conflating this phrase, and his ego won't allow him to admit a mistake.

@StumpTownStu So what was the purpose for your reply then exactly? Was there something sincere or genuine and that was of high value in the reply or was it just another attempt from you to try and soil the mod again? Dont try and hide your actions, just own them or better yet try and avoid the trailing complaining routine and look for ways to add positive value.
Cannot the same can be said of you?
Simply 'own' your mis-types or autocorrects.
I was not crying 'foul' -- I genuinely thought it was a funny slip-up.
A common 'phrase' from the '80s should be somewhat familiar to all four of us.
Can you find where it is for me? I truly cannot find it?

Yes, we all know that one.
I am fluent in all the languages involved, including a lot of slangish stuff.
That is why I assumed he mixed phrases or got caught in an autocorrect of some sort.

Uh no, that phrase is used in MANY respects and just because you found a reference in a different quote does not mean the quote I referenced did not exist.
Sheesh you are trying way way way too hard. Go hit a bucket of golf balls and get that anger out of you instead of false framing some stranger on a website.
You dont see me trying to tighten the screws on you for suggesting that I made a mistake, that you are trying to soil me and are wrong in the process. What is the purpose of trying to antagonize the use of an obscure 80s quote???

It is really not a trap and you are making a bigger deal than it should be.
it is either a phrase; or it is not a phrase.
We all make slipups or do not proofread before hitting 'submit'.

The purpose was to show my bro that he isn't the only one laughing at you, so that two bros may share a laugh at your expense. That has value to me, and I posted it with full sincerity. You need to get over yourself. You are not the Lord of covers. Value is subjective. Outside of your financial knowledge, I believe all your posts add zero value. Your moderation, zero value. Humor has value, and make no mistake, you are seen as a joke by many. I'm just calling a spade a spade.

I didn't get it. Ignored it cause I had no clue. I'm a pretty big movie buff too and can't remember it being used in any 80s films. You can usually google a good movie quote and it comes right up.

Ah nothing like put downs and insults to make your life more complete. Not much better than belittling someone else with your pals to lift up your zero ego.
Find better alternatives in a more positive way than to tear others down even if you have a difference in views.

What purpose is there to call me a bleeding heart mod is this something that adds value or adds to conversation? Does insulting midnight as you do add value or add to conversation, is it respectful?
I use my words carefully and calculated. When I make a mistake I have the balls to own up to it.
I said "I could see how a bleeding heart mod could feel sorry for one of those individuals". I did not say you were a bleeding heart mod, I made an objective statement that IF that is the reason why you feel you must defend someone else's actions and words for them THEN I could understand it if you were a bleeding heart mod. I don't think that is an insult, "bleeding heart" just means you are very sensitive to the misfortunes of others. In this case, the low IQ posters in question.
With regards to Midnight, why don't you ask him if he feels I insult him? Darkness and I converse all the time, we agree on things and we agree to disagree on other things. I respect him and if there was anyone who felt insulted and would speak up to it he would be one of the first. If I insulted him he would tell me straight up, but here you are again putting words and feelings into other peoples mouths. That is a problem. It makes you look foolish. Mid could come in right now and tell me I am wrong and that I have disrespected him and insulted him. That is not the case though so right back on you Mr. Morale Superiority.
Darkness is my homie.

Anger? I'm drinking a quad latte while out Christmas shopping, which is one of my all-time favorite activities. I am literally in bliss. Then it's off to see me God sons to drop off some gifts since I won't be back in California again before Christmas. Smoke up my best friends herb. Drink his beers. I'm in my flow state, mujer.

This is the straight dope. I'm seen you misuse said phrase multiple times. I didn't speak on it. When I saw Taiders comment on it, I felt it the proper time to speak on it. This both allows Raiders22 and I to share a little chuckle, but also allows you to correct yourself, if you choose. Both of these things add value. If you choose to double-down on an incorrect wording, that is your prerogative but make no mistake, it's use is insulting.

Darkness and I were having a nice civil conversation just yesterday....if he lived on my side of the coast I'm sure we would be fishing buddies. Those who have insulted Mid usually get a nice piece of his mind and then move on. Sorry to burst your bubble but that is not the case here....

So which MOD is what you described? None fit your descript and it is not some secret your views on most everything so to try and deflect seems miscalculated. If discussing things that you are at odds with brings out these sort of replies and complaints then what good is it to reply?
To the credit of the other group that you try and poke at all the time, at least they know how to show restraint and know that there is nothing positive that will come in discussing and replying to combative members like many in your circle are. You replied to fubah in the other thread and you know he wont reply or engage with you so what is the purpose for that reply or ANY to someone who has zero interest in combative back and forth messages?
You are combative and make things personal, you obviously are not able to respectfully reply to me or other members that bother you. The bleeding heart comment is nothing but negative nonsense it serves no purpose but to make a personal dig, that is exactly the type of messages that are against the rules and serve absolutely no purpose, the same goes for your attempt to frame fubah by taking his comment out of context to form a narrative.
How about you just not reply to those members at all, do not comment or reply because they are not interested in having conversation with you and it IS obvious you are not seeking respectful and calm and reasonable discussion with them.

Apparently no one knows it.
I know you never admit being wrong.
But you should be able to laugh at yourself when you make an obvious slip-up. We all make them.
You could just say a weird autocorrect or something -- no need to double-down on it.
Just laugh at it and move on. No one is accusing you of anything. It was just funny. We all know you did not mean to call him 'mujere'.

This is a big difference between the two of you, midnight is able to have stark and blaring differences in political views and keep a lid on his replies, it is one of his strong qualities. It is rare if ever that I see him making personal jaded comments and I dont recall often if ever that he follows other members around seeking to pester them. He is a great example of how to have a disagreement and still be a reasonable contributing member.

Again and hopefully finally, I am good that you do not know the reference...the rest of your reply is more the issue than the actual quote. There is no need or reason to try and say someone is wrong or misquoted or didnt edit or the other nonsense you tried.
You dont know the quote, nothing more about it is necessary.
