Please Mother Teresa

Most legitimate apologies don't include a mockery of the person they are apologizing to.
And you made a mockery of Mother T as well.
Nice going.

Something about your apology rings hollow. Not sure what it could possibly be?

Maybe I should get in this Delorean, Go back to the Future and make a more sincere apology...... Let me just refuel the Plutonium Chamber.


Jeez.....


P.S this thing is so fucking cool

@Monkey Man @311boogieman

For whatever reason I feel compelled to put my 2 cents in. Maybe because over the years I've heard too many insincere apologies.

While saying the words "I'm sorry" is important, it's the actions following that truly matters. This is where it shows if the person is actually remorseful and trying to change the behavior or just saying the words with no substance behind them.

In the case of Kid, his actions indicate he's just saying the words. It doesn't matter how many times "I'm sorry" is said, if there are no actions to back that up those words are meaningless. Kid says the words, but continues the offending behavior. How many times have we seen Kid say 'I'm sorry" then shortly after he's right back at it. It might be with the same person in a different thread or it might be directed at a different person, but it's still the same actions. Kid make zero attempts to change his behavior. This highlights that he just said sorry, but didn't mean it.

MM, maybe you don't see this because Kid is relatively cordial with you and you haven't experienced this first hand. The rest of us have in some form. Kid generally only apologizes when someone (oddly it' mainly you) suggests he was wrong and/or should apologize. Then not long after he's back to doing the same thing directed at the same people. Perfect example, he crapped on 311's Lisa memorial thread, apologized, then shortly after crapped on 311's Sweetwater thread. As stated already, he's not making any effort to change the behavior.

I think you guys know where I'm going with this. So to not ramble I'll leave it at the old saying... Actions speak louder than words.

All fair points brother.

I'd only contend one thing:
There's no way you or anyone could know whether or not he makes any effort to change following an apology. The world's choc-full of peeps who're unable to reform their ways despite earnest attempts to do so.

As I said 'though, fair points.

I'm going to have to disagree. It sounds like you're grasping at straws to make an excuse for Kid. The way you tell is by actions and changes in behavior. His behavior hasn't changed and now he's taken the road of making sarcastic apologies to people.

It's like if someone says "I'm going to lose weight" but continually sits on the couch with a bag of Cheetos. When you mention weight loss, they start munching on chips right in your face while telling you, "you look fat." Their not and never were serious about about anything and are now making a mockery of everything.

Same thing with Kid. If he continues the same behavior plus becomes sarcastic about it, then any apology loses its sincerity. This is the behavior of a toddler who is too young to understand or hasn't yet formed the mental connection between words and actions. I'm not trying to be mean here, just making the comparison. I would think Kid is more mentally developed and mature than a 2 year old to understand this concept. This all points to him as not being remorseful for any of his behavior.

Another option is there's a mental disconnect where he's incapable of putting the words and actions together. Meaning there's an actual medical or psychological issue. I don't want to go assigning an unwarranted diagnosis to anyone, but if this is the case he can be cut a decent bit of slack. Otherwise, any apologies he makes/has made come off as 100% insincere no matter how many times he says I'm sorry.

Let's face it, all this was initiated by Kid rubbing everyone the wrong way by attacking Lisa out the gate when he first joined. Even still @311boogieman @IndyWS6 myself and others cut him slack, tried to have conversations, an tried to help him fit in. What we got in return was getting labeled pussy hat woketards or whatever and he never missed a chance to make a dig at us in his ramblings. And he continues to do it even though he "apologized". It's no a mystery why people have been piling on him. Current events are everyone's frustrations with him boiling over. At this point if he truly is sorry he's the one who needs to make the first effort to show it.

Last things...
I'm tagging @The~Kid so he sees it in hopes something might click for him.
The MIA thread has been derailed enough so I'm not going to comment more and leave things as is.

Yes........

Please continue to agree with folks from TGP like you know @theclev..... Or better yet side with folks like @311boogieman who have nothing better to do than la la la di fucking la....and respond to months old post and sticky my threads in his OP. And complain essentially about nothing as you are now. For whatever reason

Hhhmmmm...... What exactly are you complaining about. I already said what I said and well I wasn't the only one throwing punches...... Or asked for or even demanded for an apology of any sort...... Yet I apologized respectfully sincerely because Smash IMO isn't such a bad guy and well yeah...... Boys will be boys shit.

It really seems to me that you're just ginning up a ruckus for nothing more than ginning up a ruckus respectfully

 

[MadAsAHatter]

I know I said I would leave it as is, but one last thing because no one will see his original response. Kid edited his post above several times. The first couple iterations were fly off the handle bad. I can only assume he edited them trying to save face before anyone noticed.

Talk about ginning up a ruckus for nothing more than ginning up a ruckus.......What are you even complaining about bro....... Y'all TGP/SweetWater/Amazon loving folks have some real issues....

Maybe you should take this back. You seem to need it more than I do and talk about fake rage and well nvm the BS and fuck the noise

 

[The~Kid]

@MadAsAHatter you posted this in my thread about SweetWater...... And over a simple debate .......This is an intervention pal.....

You need help..... Learn how to get help

 

[S̷͖͑m̵͎͂á̵̺s̸͚̈́h̴̬̑]

Before anyone throws me under the sincere apology microscope with @The~Kid let me just say that my apology in the main forum could not possibly have been more heartfelt

 

[theclev]

Pro tip - when you're in the middle of arguing with someone, maybe don't start tagging uninvolved members you're also prone to arguing with. Also, when did I become a Sweetwater or Amazon guy? I literally just posted like three days ago about my issues with Sweetwater. And I've never once mentioned Amazon.

Sure dude more facepalm worthy post...... From regular TGP members like you..... Coming in for your Amazon/SweetWater loving buddy 311 in my Original thread..... You know the one he stickied on his OP


Pretty lame guys..... Pretty lame. Remember this one when dude dragged his own family as a shield into an argument and I had to apologize over insults I never made to his family as I'm not that type of guy...... Classic stuff guys, just classic
