    Well, at least we've established that we're pretty sure Rahman has a size advantage over Liston.

    Dude you showed nothing "vengeful" about me, I explained how showing your conduct of being triggered as an image is confined to behavior-not mocking nor assassinating character like your bizarre claims such as I must be a nariccistic sociopath" in real life...

    You have written some long posts, occ. more than I: but length of posts is a childish way to judge someone.
    I have not been speaking *of* you, & when you were banned & thought gone forever, I said nothing about our conflict & just repeatedly offered to get you back then nothing.
    I assume you are not so far gone that you must know this shows I am not obsessive-counting my words & insisting only I stop posting does seem OCD though lol!

    There was nothing paranoid or intruding about my comment.
    Nor mean, which is what you have often been.
    And your continued insistence that I stop writing, yet days later writing me & insisting youn will "set me straight: that was never healthy-nor realistic.

    You have copied a few things I said about you, yet you likely believe I am mirroring you-but you assign dishonesty on the thinnest pretense, not broad minded enough to grant or comprehend that people can have honest disagreements.
    I have hardly commented on anything you wrote forever: you terminated Goodwill & a positive relationship online.
    if you really think you are being "stalked" when I only reply to your constant repetitive notes:

    Get help now.

    You had no "embargo", enforceable or otherwise.
    Once I commented on something in agreement, when i directly communicate olive branches youn disdain them.

    It is IRRATIONAL to not even answer what various phrases mean, nor a 3 letter acronym.
    As it is to then claim I have comprehension problems. *facepalm*.
    Ask anyone here if me politely inquiring what something can mean should be ignored.
    Or gives any confidence that your statements made sense: at least it is Bad Faith to never respond.

    And seems to suggest there is no logical intervention that will placate you into even having a civil discussion.
    Because flaming & projecting pathologies upon me is more important to you that even being understood.

    It is trivial, but you show no evidence towards many claims-such as that a "reptilian brain" has been debuncked.
    There really is no debate that this earliest & most primitive part of our mind reacts emotionally & intuitively & often may override our higher & better cognitive cortex capacities.

    Yet I do not think you are lying when you fail to understand or grant when I try to weigh context & accept some of what you say-like about hearsay.
    But consider that unlike me you never seem capable of adjusting your position, regardless of how erroneous.
    And ignore many direct, repeated questions even about meaning.
    So you see anybody who shows any flexibility as dishonest.
    You critique long posts, but assume against evidence that I am avoidant.

    Sometimes you say things that just make no sense.
    I am avoiding even the mpost harmless emojis-although have not begrudged your using them-context & intent is everything-
    But nobody will know what you mean, nor claim it makes sense, to say i am "hiding" behind a dramatizing picture.

    Being "succinct"-which you sometimes are-does not mean you are being rational.
    Or not avoiding direct questions.
    Or saying things that we can make heads or tails of.
    You are often not *part* of the definition of succinct vis a vis making sense in how you answer me: you are not always "lucid".

    Sometimes you seem to just say anything that you hope will make me look bad or be offensive.
    It just makes you look bad Pugguy.

    Unlike me, you have escalated to taking a shot at me with others.
    When you were banned for viciously mocking, constantly name calling personal attacks-for which you have no remorse-I merely noted the indisuptable

    Your comment does not even make sense from a joking perspective, since each side is supposed to have a single attribute.
    But you used it as an excuse to attack my character.
    Nobody but you suspects my detailed posts are "

    ".
    Nor do folks think I-or you, despite sometimes being irrational & avoiding th more simple friendly inquiry, unablle to show that certain words make sense-are not "

    ".

    So since your comments are so gratuitously insulting, false & when made about me indirectly can only escalate things...
    We are forced to wonder if it is just about me-& anyone else that you get malicious & "triggered" about...

    That you react in such an

    A further 2 posts, another 768 words. Very obsessed. Very agitated. Very abusive.

    Content: Histrionic, Repetitive, Mirroring, Pathologically False and Absolutely Self Contradicting - As already profiled and upheld.

    ‘Tis not I who posts endless screeds, writing in a fashion that is infantile, emotionally unbalanced, disturbed, screaming for attention and heavily reflective of an acute obsession with and stalking of the other party.

    A damn breaking, deluge of feverishly typed out nonsense doesn’t change the truth. And remember the CRUX point - I’m not interested in you as a poster - save for REPLYING to false/negative comments re me that you’ve initiated and propelled yourself into multiple times SINCE I CUT YOU OFF.

    There’s no accounting for the fallout after some posters have been rightfully rejected (CUT OFF) and can’t deal with it.

    Reality Check: you could not support copying my accusation of "abusive"-which got you banned recently-with countering my evidence. Ask anyone what & if I said that was, like you, abusive. I was not.
    Ask absolutely

    Posting EXACTLY as profiled. ANOTHER endlessly looping screed, 529 words.

    Don't YOU hate the FACT that the METRIC that is WORD COUNTER doesn't LIE? And the irony of a self-described pedant, who claims his posts are swollen due to pedantry, balks at such a metric. Comparing your "shorter" post to "any given" post of mine that might be longer?? - rather than comparing your post to whatever you were trying to reply to. Apples to Oranges. DEEPLY flawed logic.

    The unequivocal STALKING continues, unabated. UNDERSCORED by the plying of one PATHOLOGICAL FALSEHOOD after another.

    "Asinine"? Well, I never.! So "Mean", so "Hateful", so "Vicious" and soooo HYPOCRITICAL. I meet that adjective with "Cretinous" as similar and as perfectly as that terms applies to your many twisted/false comments. Try not to get too HISTRIONIC, - even though that is an attribute inextricably woven into your PROFILE.

    Guiliani? YOUR disgraced Mayor, not mine. Take that tangential/deflective rant elsewhere.

    One flew East, one flew West, and ONE flew.......

    Rahman has more muscle mass (and fat mass) but structurally they’re built pretty similar.

    It is extremely irrational to avoid all specifics, obsessively count my words instead of paying attention or being able to rebut my arguments, yet merely repeat your same unsubstantiated insulting premises.

    You write many very long posts-& again length or brevity does not equal virtue, but avoidance is the opposite.
    You recently wrote me when I avoided doing the same-& there is no specifics, nothing you show is "false or negative".

    I consistently supplied reasons & examples why your
    This content is protected

    You ignore all details, attack me for conscientiously documenting how & why-
    while without examples or justifications literally nirror back my same language. :nonono

    Also anyone can tell you that your statement that "cretinous" is in this same vein is incorrect.
    That is not describing behavior, but a personal insult using a particular medical disorder in a futile attempt for the Cruelty to land hurtfully.
    You have never been treated like this by me, nor am I mocking you personally.

    It is also senseless & maliciously intended-without any corroborating details-to say something mean about my profile, that is very sad.
    It is just silly to parry that Giuliani is "my Mayor"-besides that this was the case many years ago-not that you know if I was there then-but utterly irrelevant to my point about avoiding his unhinged, deeply embarrassing, amoral conduct.

    I could make a better argument that you are stalking ME when I was ostentatiously considerate when some cruel cross-talk attempted to start another Hate-Flame war, & I credited you discretely, not even by name, with restraint-despite your mocking icon.

    You insisted on both asking me to stop writing-with no justification, I did not attempt to shut you up-& yet continually responding when told i would answer personal attacks.
    You kept things going, then despite saying you would always answer, gave up.
    I predicted that you would make a grotesque false claim to taking the high road.

    Just stop, nobody believes you are remotely The Victim here.
    And you re-initiating a direct-& hostile-discussion with me has been duly pointed out to those who make the rules.
    I argued for a warning, not a banning.
