[tiburonfirst]

A marimo ball is a rare growth form of algae, which grows into large green balls with a soft, velvety appearance.they are native to japan where they naturally grow at Lake Akan. They are also found in Iceland ,Estonia and scotland.

Guess Tibs didn't read the instructions

asi es!

i was doing a partial water change and while i had the water in the bucket i threw the ball in there to rinse it off

but then i got sidetracked in here and forgot all about my marimo when i emptied the bucket in the toilet

and there it went

The one I have just stays in the aquarium. It's odd... it has no legs or obvious physical form
of self-locomotion... but it goes from one spot to the next. I've never actually SEEN it move,
but it does. Must be nocturnal. Kind of creepy, to be honest.

Well I know that !
I've been around here for a little while.

Quite the comedian.

 

[Surf Monkey]

Yeah. Right.
'Cuz it's all about "poor Fan and CES"! Fran and CES can take care of themselves with me. They know me.

When will you ever be honest and direct and truthful and non-manipulative? Quit using other peoples emotions as personal attacks and ammo for your own needs. It's manipulative and abusive.

And BTW, it was intended as much for Bear as you. Maybe more for Bear right now. And it was direct. And honest. It wasn't nice. But it wasn't deceptive nor did it "use others" or try to manipulate all reader's opinions.

So, you're doing this offensive crap out here too? And somehow you're not getting hammered for it? Curious.

you don't rinse yours off, bear?

It seems to self-clean during the unobserved rolling about the gravel. It gets a little coated
with food and fish-stuff, but after relocating, it's pretty green again. Nope, never did
anything with it.

Good morning non-mean snails.
Piss off mean snails. (that includes passive aggressive ones. I fight mean/evil people where I find them. If they show up here, or act it here, they get an ear full. Tough.)

^^^ That's how to be direct and not passive aggressive.

If I were passive aggressive, I'd run around saying things like "Oh, I'm soooo sorry you had to hear that...your sensitive ears were probably offended by that-someone, but I'm all innocent, and I'm so sorry that YOU were hurt by what I really started, but pretend that someone else did it, and don't acknowledge that I'm a manipulative passive-aggressive reactive manipulator".

Which is really a form of ATTACK, and people should refute/rebuke such attacks adamantly. Particularly when they revolve around false-accusations and pretend-victim status that tries to "turn it around" and denies the initial attack.

To be clear Atty? That post also qualifies as passive aggressive. You are addressing the thread, careful to not mention the name of the party you are trying to insult.

How to not be passive aggressive?

This post here, that's how.

You need to learn how to let things go. There is absolutely no reason anything that happens in the outside should spill over in here.

Evidently making a complete mess of the OUTSIDE! isn't enough for Atty.

Bottom line? That kind of disgusting, inaccurate and inappopriate attack is not appropriate here, there or anywhere else.

Apparently you confuse
1) active aggressive/response-to aggression
with
2) Passive aggressive.

As far as letting it go....well,
I don't know how to say good morning and not be lying in certain instances without the exclusion. I didn't see the need to name names. My anger is sincere and direct and open and honest. Anyone coming across the thread randomly would not get specific names. That's responsibility, not abdicating responsibility. Since those involved know who it is, it's not disingenuous or sneaky. Just not overly/unnecessarily obvious on an open forum, a day later.

Neither of us have failed to grasp any of that. You brought your fight with Kat out here. That's on you. If you think we're going to stand by while you try to assassinate her character in the Lounge for no reason other than to bolster your self image you're insane.

Leave your personal issues out of the Lounge. It's inappropriate to launch unilateral attacks on Kat or anyone else out here.

Well, it's not an attack to defend against mean people. It's a refute/defense. The mean ones can piss off. That's an honest opinion. There's two I was referring to in that post. And I didn't "bring it here". Bear did, with Katmar's support.

And your stalking around here doesn't help. How is it that you "just managed" to show up here? Hmmmm? with USMC on coattails? Same internet bullying pattern as in the OUTSIDE! See that link I posted on passive-aggressive and relational-aggression.

And you're LYING and distorting.
1) Bear made deliberate references to it in a couple of ways. These were deliberate. Not random. And if he was 1/2 the man I thought he was, he'd admit it. Katmar supported it.
2) You came here to support the denial-smoke-screen and distortion. That people should be able to "slamm Atty" and "Atty can't fight back, if he does, claim it's all-him." I've got news for you, it didn't happen randomly and it was brought here deliberately by Bear, not me.

One thing about this thread...people have been friends for a very long time...stuff happens and people make up and get over it.

Now...as for busting in here as non participants and stirring the pot...Nope.

 

[classwife]

Drop it.

I'm not lying or distorting at all and I have nothing further to say about it out here. If you want to play the "up to the ban-line" game out here, so be it. Good luck. You'll need it.

Dropped.

And if you really felt that way, you would have rebuked bear's post, with katmar's 'like'...first. And also her post telling me what I can and can't post in my own topic thread and her passive-aggressive "why did you...." setups. It's right up there with "have you stopped beating your wife" questions. Fallacies and setups.
