Thank you glimse
I Know. Lame duck.
I completely messed up my post. I got severely distracted ranting on and on.
Thats the main trouble with getting old.
Forgetting starts slowly, then all of a sudden you are rushed to hospital unable to remember your name.
I was talking about haventgotsacluetube (youtube) and not boatracecrook.
I do hope people will see through my obvious error
You can call it Facebook or YouTube. No evil entity wins if you do, you just make it much easier for fellow community members to understand what you're trying to say. Your two comments are impossible to track and understand.
I know Schwim Dandy
I made a right pigs ear of that post.
still I am a new user so I will take that as a lesson
Hah. I mean no offense but you sound exactly like Gemini or copilot after I call it out for some egregious hallucination.
"Of course you're absolutely right, I completely understand how saying X would undermine your confidence in my abilities. I'll keep that in mind for next time, I'm always learning etc...
Hey some_kind_of_guy
Thank you.
you are very kind, I am glad you found it funny, I do try my best.
You never know what sort of feedback you will get.
After all there are 8.5 billion different opinions in the world.
I sound like gemini or copilot. Not bad for a 69 year old.
Wow! I heard some difficult personal feedback, learning about things I did not know about myself, in the weekly process group during my psychotherapy training, but sounds like gemini or copilot, I would have said that sounds more like Projective identification
Projective identification is an unconscious phantasy in which aspects of the self or an internal object are split off and attributed to an external object.
I'm maybe one of the oldest here
Hey Zerush
I feel so much better now.
With the existential inevitability of death just round the corner.
I needed a good laugh this morning.
Thank you
