I have a theory as to why he doesn't post at his potential here. He doesn't see anyone here as being in the same class as himself, and not capable of his level of discourse. The alternative is to position himself as a teacher on the chance that somebody might learn something. The posturing is likely being used to establish himself as such. The difficulty, of course, is that his students are rebelling. (I'm in pink/purple with the pig-tails..... you're the dude hangin' from the light! ) That's definitely him yes.

It's similar to a mimosa. Ask Enigma. Apparently he's an expert on mimosa trees or cocktails or both. I have to ask an explanation about your words?

I don't have any such oneness realization or some kind of mumboo jumboo you,Enigma,Figgles,Muttley has been talking about. Yes, to see through the knowledge, you must have had that false knowledge first to begin with. That's my point.
You can definitely see the illusion of control while you are performing it and looking at the consequence of it. Illusion of action can be known.
No disagreement here, that's what I am saying too.

I insult you far more than once a day, but I don't do it with a smile on my face. What is there to smile about when causing discomfort to others? That's why I value the humor so much. What I value even more is the truth. You are a complete hypocrite. Discomfort to others? I've seen you provide discomfort to a long list of contributors in both forums over a long period of time on a regular basis. From you I have seen sarcasm, disdain, condescension, sneering, disrespect, the list goes on. I was hoping there might have been a glimmer of a smile behind it but from your own admission I now know that's not true, but it comes as no surprise. And as for valuing the truth, that's just laughable and is not worthy of comment. You just provided me with my exit ticket out of here. Be well. So you were hoping I was just trolling, and then snickering about it? No, that seems to be your M.O.. I just talk about what in blazes is going on.

Gopal is the one in the black shirt taking a selfie. I gave up taking selfie nowadays because of you But this selfie which I have now has been taken because I wanted to take a selfie with my daughter. Aww, I tease you about your selfies with a smile on my face and love in my heart. Seriously. The current one is a real keeper. Your daughter is adorable.

Aww, I tease you about your selfies with a smile on my face and love in my heart. Seriously. The current one is a real keeper. Your daughter is adorable. heh heh .. this points up how the issue of "insult" isn't so clear-cut a notion, really. The two sides to the story are the intent of the source and the meaning made by the subject. If our intent is either callous or even to injure, then, that's a people-peep pattern goin' on, bad on us, and I have to shout mea culpa about my past on ST but I do think I'd have to go back at least several years now. If someone genuinely feels injured it's the same pattern, but to criticize or ridicule them for that .. well, yeah, that where the evil is and I think that's essentially what you were getting at. Also, it's not projection to witness something as an insult.
But if we outlaw any and everything that could reasonably be witnessed as a potential insult then we wouldn't have any lighthearted kidding goin' on, and really, when you're the subject of it and it doesn't bother you, it can be about as warm a heart sensation as you can get.
Also, a WIBIGO note: I'm to blame for turning the topic toward behaviorism, but what I was interested in wasn't the behavior of "insulting", but rather, a pattern of negativity, and, more or less, and (although I didn't call this out, specifically), the "energy" behind it. I was aware that it would turn sour even as I started engaging, but really, at that point, I saw it as a foregone conclusion of a matter of time. It was an instance of the "be truthful or be kind" bind.
