sounds very much like transference ….
I don’t know you but I would happily test my IQ against yours .. I will even give you a bonus 100 points .

Hi Blondey ,it's been a long time since we connected, hope you are doing well
I appreciate and adore the matured way, your words have been placed here

Hi U life is busy for me .. still super crazy at work but managing to smile and cause chaos . Looking forward to winter skiing and thermals lol Hope you are happy and well always lovely to read your posts xox

It's nice to have a choice so you can have either when you want to :)

So nice Blondey Excited to hear about winter skiing, I am doing good and would never miss reading your posts too ❤
Happy to know that you liked my posts

Take care and have a wonderful time

Hi Blondey.
1. Your main defense being 'man does not understand English (and yet he's a brilliant communicator)'.

2. and: 'unless you are his close friend you've no idea how he's feeling or coping'

Wait a minute, I've not put his past through a shredder - yet. If he's not faking repentance why not a quick apology to Basel?

Particularly if there was no intention - and just an accident - refer point 1.

3. He labeled a new entrant 'cartoon' when all he enquired was for 'any Filipinos in Yanbou? (There are Filipinos working in KSA and Yanbou is in KSA.)

So what about that young NE's feelings?
Is he a lesser human? Does he not bleed when pricked as 'cartoon'? (Isn't the Report button precisely for such situations)

4. When Romeo and Juliet took space in Poetry forum - all other poetry ceased - and made way.
If suddenly R or J parade around stating it was all personal - thankless ingratitude, I say. Still i wish them luck.



Yes.

a) As a caretaker here told me, Mingle will be here long after we are gone.

b) You see Robin has 30,000 posts in 1 year - 95% filled with emojis and in next 6 months it will be 50,000 posts - world record.

(in which case, Robin can become a share holder - a much needed break.)

c) As a researcher you maybe well aware that AI companies (including Elon Musk's) are using conversation stockpiles like in Mingle - to dive through and learn human characteristics and conversations. This effort was started way back in the late 1990s (not sure about dates)- with tragic results on two main independent researchers - anyone may Google this.

d) In other words, by 2040; there will be a face
like mine, miming points a) b) c) ..
in normal AI conversations

and a handsome face like R's spouting emojis for conversation.

It's reasonable to project that researchers holding conversations with their model of AI who delved into M2 stockpile will likely have tragic consequences and / or when these are let loose among the public. If you have seen young children saturate themselves in TV cartoon one can easily imagine a future child, at the minimum emoji-ing faces and hiding behind the defense in #1.
==xx==

If Basel is reading,


I'm sorry - he interrupted what may have been a great start. Tall ladies are so programmed to limit their choices - it's painful.

'Poles apart' - Many of us have had to bear such heart wrenching nuisance in the past.

Anyway, thanks to B & I; the balloon is up. Let others do the watching.

It seems you insist that his post was not in reply to mine. Well in this case, and with your granting me 100 points, you will lose the IQ test humiliatingly by 200 points, give or take a few.

However, I can accept that his command of English leaves room for improvement.

A thank you Sir Jaish from me is in order here.



a spot on remark with possibly few rare exceptions

it was not a defence.. it was insight .
You can interpret my words however you wish but if you are referencing me I would prefer that you quote me rather than put your own distorted spin on them .

As for your comments about Robin , Romeo and Juliette …if you are feeling resentful .. the correct approach would be to talk privately or use the report function .

The poetry forum can accommodate many many poems …I have never felt anyone treated the poetry forum like they have a special monopoly .

We all use mingle in ways that we appreciate

OT .. There is a certain tall man that I adore …

best of luck Marjorie hope you find your man

In the meantime frog emojis are multiplying like crazy.

Problem is, he genuinely believes he's doing God's work.

Resentful? He's a good boy, trying; and I'm willing to give a shoulder up.

Ask Juliet? Ask her to copy / paste my private message to her. Ask her whether or not I beseeched for this injured boy; to give a second chance? But by then he was lassoed in by another NZ-lander - 3 times widow.

Resentful indeed!

You do realize that however much I love you, and however much help I've received from you on various topics; on this one occasion, the definition of man; in this whirlwind of feminism; I stand by just two statements and they are.

A man is different from woman.

Mingle would not be the same without men and that Robin, not you, nor other great souls here; has been systematically and in concealed ways being defecating upon. I've given him multiple chances including his brother J (another Indian) on whose back he rides. You wouldn't know about these things ao I will share the tiniest example:

Just yesterday's:

a kid looking for Filipino company in Yanbu

https://mingle2.com/topic/626166

My company had built a power plant in Yanbu
Filipinos brought much needed humor in the intense heat of Saudi Arabia And when a kid who looks like a handsome pirate makes an enquiry to break his isolation...

Who the heck is Robinto crash in, in a demented manner. Does the kitchen help in Switzerland know what it takes in Saudi Arabia?

You have intimidated a member with your high IQ.

My mother has high IQ (she's 86) and you know why?
She is still so full of herself, that by default, we kids grew, relying on her IQ; accepting that our lesser IQ was a survival way, not a way forward.

Certainly, you may pit your IQ on this thread, but note, however much I may love you; only one of us will survive. You may mother the rank and file in the Poet forums; theirs is an understanding from within their cultural pool. Indian, Polish and miserable Turkey where one has everything. everything.., (I've been to Istanbul0 and nothing; the ceaseless heartbreaking song of one of our members from there, is so real)

Takes a lot more from life to be a woman; and being a 'Pappa' or a 'Momma' is part of the flexibleness we call life. I realized this the hard way. For over fifty years; I was the 16 ton guy - in the song - and now after retiring; I say, you may have the IQ; but you are no Momma. I'm the guy who catches snakes, literally. It hurts, when they are killed.

Very recently, where I live, a PhD in economics destroyed our community. She started a movement like a runaway train - not clear where the driverless locomotive would slow down and stop. I'm still kind to the lady. Your response will be factored in on whether I will plunge this knife in her high IQ heart.

A man;s got to do, what he's got to do.

@ Jaish ..... man your comment was rather long and so I ain't gonna quote it .... but you will know what I am commenting on anyway ...or at least a part of it ....
First of ... I am glad Poetry finally took a stand and was very well supported by you and a few others ...I myself wondered about all the gibberish and at times off color remarks being penned . Could not put a finger on it , till it was mentioned about English not being a first language and then being informed Indian was in the mix to ... it was then that it struck me ....when I worked in the 70s with the Canadian consultants on a huge mining project in India , we came across a large amount of the population , who kinda spoke English , we hired many based on that too ... yes, it was a cross between English and the Indian language... we were told by a few remaining Britishers ... it was common of people trying to imitate or improve on their English speaking and writing skills ... and they called it 'babu English ' !! Could this be a case in point ....

OT::: I already had a girl two inches taller than me , without heels ...really it was not that big of a deal ...personally , tall is over rated ...

I didn't knew these..
Nice Story but doesn't has any reality to the aspect.

If thier is anything gone wrong from my end then i surely will want to take Mingle action against me..

Thank You

if poems are read without asking a question to whom it's written and for what it's written, there won't be any problems ahead

On a day to day life, we encounter so many good souls or we tend to have some unique emotions which we relish, that can be expressed through a poem.

when I read a poem, either i will take a lesson from it or will relish the poet's emotion or if I don't like, I ignore.. instead I will not make false assumptions that the poem is written for this purpose and immediately message the poet or anyone to marry someone or pass false judgements on anyone n finally I won't spoil my identity telling about my assumptions about someone in a common forum, we should be respecting one's emotion and privacy too, a good trait to be!

If people don't even know you nor you don't even have an idea of what's happening in their life, what the use in sending them a private
message

If you are interested in anything, please share them and we will relish them too, but not so professional to interfere on other's personal after reading poems, what's going on!

And no one blocked other users from posting poems, each user exhibits their emotions in their written versions, no assumptions pls

and there was a private message from you talking so bad about my profile again on false assumptions( I never asked you to rate my profile) - forced to quote here as you should know how much you spill out negativity..

Good to know that you do DIY projects for kids, there must be lots of positive vibes in you, spend time sharing those positivity with us making the threads a treasure of calmness and kindness.

Each one has their own problems unsolvable, we all come here for a purpose and lets be a reason to bring goodness atleast among the real users who is regular here

we can't judge someone on how they speak or with their education or their skills, each one has wonderful traits so adorable, let's respect each other and not show negativity.

If you fail to ignore, better to report if you hate any one/thing so much than to spill negativity continuously on people and build up stories on false assumptions!

Thanks!

I have put in my profile that I am looking for someone around my age (63) and close by. I am not interested in a long distance relationship, but all I seem to attract is young men and a lot from far far away. And also what's with all these half naked guys. I don't think it's attractive at all, but ofcourse that's my opinion

Speaking of command of the English language, my obvious omission error:
... his lack of command ...
