    mkg335:
    "Pee" represents the worst kind of professional, one whose station in life has caused him to embrace an unjustified arrogance and a condescending attitude that only serve to blind his capacity to see his own shortcomings in that regard.

    Do you know what my "station" in life actually is? I doubt it, so I'll enlighten you.

    I am a CWO4 in the Corps. I interrogate the worst people on the planet. Among many other things. This does not give me an inflated sense of ego.I chose to serve others. I treat them all with respect. Better to serve honey than vinegar to your guests. Something you know nothing of admittedly, as you want to "call me out" because you're cantankerous. Yes you are. However that does not make you a bad person, just who you are. One I prefer to stay away from as I am a happy person. :-) see that smiley face makes it so.

    What does give me a lift during senseless attacks is, using peoples own ammunition against them. I don't have to beat you up you're about to do it to yourself, below. I'll watch.

    Just for the record, I chose my own words. You chose a scholar's words with which you have no connective comparison with. Somehow they were pertinent over there then. However not here now. 

    I chose the word adapt to help those who have painstakingly taken notes that are no longer any good. The constent begging and whining and demanding that the "dots" and "rough" be turned back to facilitate you people, the minority in here is a complete show of inflated ego's.

    Condescending demonstrative behavior at it's best. Good job.

    mkg335:
     I encountered this kind of inflated ego more than a few times
    .

    You've never encountered anyone in my field. I have no doubt in my mind you have seen plenty of clinical psychologists. A group of which I am not associated with in any fashion.

    "I paid and put all this time in and I want my Efin dots back". Monumental ego. However he is part of your psychotic bunch thus is not seen as having an inflated ego because you think alike. Look at what you wrote above and compare that with what I wrote. Don't project your shortcomings towards me. Be responsive to change. :-) Your words keep resonating in here.

    You chose to throw it in my face after writing the very same thing about whining about the new rough conditions.

    You only called yourself out on this one, and most likely many more with a caustic attitude such as yours. No worries mate, their on your side and will not see the truth in this. Just rally the troops. Yee haw. Insert horse noises here>

    I also left an answer to another thread basically thanking WGT for their recent efforts towards doing what they chose to do to help the game. Others are not as agreeable, which is only understandable that different people have different opinions. However they are respectful with their difference of opinions, not derogatory like most in here.

    I do not see a single one of the people in here that will use several pages to attack me saying one simple congratulatory statement to WGT for making the game playable on the other thread. Just can't muster up the least bit of niceness towards progress at all behind a congratulatory statement?

    Some admitting it took a browser change to fix their problems that they were dead certain with the group mentality, that it is all caused by WGT and some cynical plan to make you all quit.

    They have a plan. You're not part of it, will not make a difference to it, and will never change it.

    I suggest you look into the big blue void you put up there and try not to choke on your own words.

    Most of you don't care for military types such as myself. That's to bad, and we care much less for your types. We are the ones that give ourselves, and me personally, two sons to give you and the puddle scum the right to attack me from your warm hovels hiding behind a computer screen with the bully bunch.

    Knock yourselves out. I am enjoying the fact one statement I write can bring out the childish attitudes of having your toys taken away.

    Alone you would go unnoticed and be as marginalised as you marginalise everything in your life. Which exists primarily in here by the looks of it.

    Stay warm in your blanket of condescending adolescent behavior with all the others. You will not receive from me what you so sadly and pathetically are trying to get.

    Salt may make those words taste better.

    Struck a nerve or two, did I?

    Good.

    btw, in case you failed to notice it, I agreed with the need to adapt, both in this thread and in the one about the new rough conditions...so no contradiction there.

    The post that caused me to accuse you of being condescending is the one where you say, "I have a life..." which carries the implication that those with whom you disagree don't have lives and/or are wasting their time on matters that you consider trivial.  Add to that your characterization of yourself as a "trained psychologist"...as if there existed somewhere a collection of untrained ones.  Your use of the term betrayed a certain lack of the professional station to which you seemed to be laying claim.

    I'm sure you're good at what you do, are a model citizen, good husband and father (if that's the case) and an all-around nice guy.

    The purpose of my attack on what I considered a condescending post of yours was to get you to take a moment to consider there might be some value in a bit of self-reflection...hell, I'll gladly admit it here and now, there are times when I'm not a perfect human being myself.

    ;-)

    YJ, evidently I was editing that post while you were quoting it and commenting.  Hope I wasn't too nice in the elaboration, would hate to compromise  my cantankerousness (cantankerosity?) too much.

    Not even remotely close. That will take 7.62x39mm projectile to achieve that. Got one?

    Go ask your friend up there that likes to throw Freud around in unnecessary circumstances showing his lack of true knowledge on the subject, if any of my nerves ever get a rise out of disrespect. He has been waiting with baited breath for your answer to me. 

    Not a single one of you malcontents can get a rise out of me. Stand in front of me like a man and try. I'll shake your hand for trying. 

    I see it is not beneath you to self diagnose. For that I do take my hat off to you.

    There are people reading this that saw me apologise in the open forum to one of the most respected members in here that some of you and your group ran out of here when he reached out for help.

    Your kind(Maybe not you, but your kind) made fun of him and marginalised his difficult times, so he turned to what he thought were friends. They all made him leave feeling pretty damn low. Great job.

    So keep your slings and arrows for the weaker, I am not one of them. I help people, because I choose to better myself.

    I am not condescending to anyone you simply misinterpreted my writing. It happens. Move on as you say. Adapt. Get your friends to stop whining like 7 year olds wanting their toys back. It's getting very repetitive and very old hearing the same thing over and over..

    They're gone, move on put some effort into life again as all us peons have to do. I do not give a rats ass about my average or stats at all. It's a game, not life.

    I may have very well misinterpreted your advice to adapt in here, I sure thought it was from a condescending point of view. I may have been wrong. It happens. I'll check

    So yes, I have a life. It does not include any of you and never will. No problem, nothing here to see. Carry on. That's is not condescending.

    Pee

    PS. I was a great father to two Marine Intel officers that were taken by sadistic people. As hard as I try they won't take me. Try out living your only children and tell me your sorrows.

    I am still a wonderful 1/2 of a long marriage, and much better for it. Thanks for your accolades. I wish the same for you as well.

    Be well and close to the ones you love, for they may not be here tomorrow.

    Not read all the above, but would it be possible to get back to green dots and how useable or not they are now:)

    Interesting as Darwin is I don't think our species is on the brink of extinction for failure to adapt to WGTs green dots eff up.

    Jim, getting back to green dots suits me, I've had more than my say for sure.

    Last words to Pee:

    Just a note to say peace to you and yours, and truce between you and me if you'll have it, and this quibble that's a pet peeve of mine:  it's bated (short for abated) breath, not baited breath.

    Live long and prosper.

    Thank you for the correction of the addition of my I. 

    I love banter, I can take it all as well as I can give it. It is the spice of the boring forum life. No truce needed as there never was a war in my mind just two opinions. Newtonian ones. Immovable object meets irresistible force. Nice to finally meet you Immovable. :-)

    I'm irresistible. Now that sounds a bit contemptuous and conceited. Sorry.

    You may regale yourself upon me at any time that suits you mkg. I do not come in here often any more unless I am trying to find an answer to an actual golfing conundrum. 

    Such as the dots on the green. I have yet to find the "Green Dots" anywhere. Maybe that's why I suck at putting. I have been seeing blue, red, orange, and OUCH yellow ones.

    Peace be unto thee brother, may it reign down upon you. 

    There's something wrong with the dots on the greens sometimes. If I know they are off from what little my stats show I paid attention to, I have just doubled them for slower or opposite for faster.

    Neither works all the time but very close. If they were consistent one way or the other it would be preferable to the "what's my line" game.

    Tacoma's bag o tricks gets them pretty close as well. It is easier if you leave the PIP on though. I'm out.
