Something's Gotta Give

We will have to disagree then. The other person doesn't have to accept your apology for the change and action to follow. The growth is the change. Growth is the things you do different after you say sorry. Words are easy. It doesn't take a strong or mature person to say words.

It takes less maturity to spit in the person's face than it does to accept an apology. It's EASY to continue to cry foul at an offense.

Are you accusing me of crying foul at someone who has apologized to me?

[Anders]

Ladies.

The entire point of this thread is to make steps towards making the city a better place.

You have different opinions. Tensions and emotions are high. That’s okay. Breathe. Walk away or talk it out privately, instead of detracting from the point of this, please.

[ladypeacek]

I'm okay with the different opinions. That's fair and I think it's equally helpful for people to make those opinions known because it's those very differences not being spoken that cause communication problems in the first place so I think Josie's rebutal and mine in return was civil.
I addressed Amaya only because it sounded directed specifically at me, so I asked.

[Anders]

I’m not asking to censor you. I’m asking you — general you — to be and to keep it civil before it gets out of hand and causes headache.

It's a different level of apology when you can stand up and go "Yep, we did a thing intentionally and it went not to plan" as opposed to a "Yeah we made a mistake". The simple fact you acknowledged that you didn't make a mistake but it was an intentional plan that went sideways and that's dope 'cause it's easier to change your actions and set reparations in place. Thumbs up Vex!

[Joy]

Well shit. That was actually pretty great. I did have a pretty big revenge fantasy collage going that I don't know what to do with now. It's hard to give up on something you've put so much creativity and time into, but maybe I can recycle it into a 12 month calendar for someone. I think if I draw long hair and a beard on vex I could say he's Jesus and maybe make it a religious calendar...it would certainly make all the blood look normal.

Anyone interested in a 12 month The Passion of vexus calendar? Fie dolla. Firm.

Even easier to make up offenses for two years.

[ladypeacek]

I believe the lovely Anders just said not to make this all personal and take from the original message. If you have a beef with me about something, why don't you come speak to me about whatever offenses you think I made up.

I am happy to apologize if I have incorrect information.

[Damacus]

I've sited several of them in the last week, two of which you openly admitted in the necro to my being right, and your whole of being wrong. Then there are plenty of other folk you've all lied about so. It's not personal, it's just the way things are.
