Mr_Dr_Oink, to asklemmy in Have you ever seen a rudolph moment happen in real life?

That’s not exactly the classical definition of projection. At least in psychology, it’s not.

Either way, what i did was not projection by your terms or the real definition. It was an accusation. One you have yet to disprove.

When you quote OPs question, you are leaving out a large amount of context, like the fact that they then shared an entire story of their own. Doing this creates an implication that everyone else here understood, which was to share your own story.

If by asking the question OP only required a yes or no, then this thread would just be a bunch of people saying yes and no… and that is clearly not what was intended. So please dont be so disingenuous.

I don’t remember saying that you claimed to be able to play piano or fly a plane. Im sure you know that, and i may be misunderstanding an attempt by you to put me down, which would be fairly ironic considering its at the point that you attempt to put me down you are accusing me of doing the same.

So i dont really care if you think im not “a rudolph.” All i really care about is that you still haven’t backed up your claim. Despite being so adamant that you have “special skills”. Just back up your claims or keep your yes/no out of this clear request for elaboration. Because its not helpful and it makes you look like a dick.

Sorry.

Thanks for your contribution…

Please re read the question and ask yourself if you have anything to add to this thread before posting again.

You cant say, this happens to me, all the time, but i dont keep score so i cant give any one specific example. I remember that it happens all the time but i dont remember one single instance of it happening.

This makes you either a liar or a compulsive liar from anyone elses perspective.

I’ve known people like you, this one guy who could play piano until he told me, an actual pianist, then suddenly his piano was at his aunties who lived 3 hours away so he didnt play much anymore. His aunty, who in a different lie lived only 30 minutes away. The same guy could fly an 8 passenger plane. But in a separate lie he could fly a 12 passenger plane.

See how easy that was? I made a statement/claim that i knew people like you. Then i backed it up with a specific example instead of being vague and annoying, pretending i couldn’t remember any specific examples.

Mr_Dr_Oink, to asklemmy in Why does America say 'merry christmas'?

I’m from the UK, and I’ve always said merry.

I doubt it’s any more prevalent in a specific country and more likely specific to individual families and friends.

For example, i always thought it was an american thing to say happy christmas.

Mr_Dr_Oink, to asklemmy in What do you call this place?

Electricitrees

Mr_Dr_Oink, to asklemmy in What is an obscure piece of media or videogame that you think nobody else here has heard of?

I always get this game if im installing an emulator. It was great. I liked the combinations of guns you could choose. Either power up one of the 4 types or combine with another type. Homing lazers were always my go to.

MGMT have a good song called 'time to pretend" so i guess that helps the sign make more sense.

Mr_Dr_Oink, to lemmyshitpost in Improvise. Adapt. Overcome.

I still have an aol and hotmail address. I use them for trash website and services that i dont want to give my main email address to. I wouldnt dare open my aol inbox. I might get covid or something.

Mr_Dr_Oink, to lemmyshitpost in We were warned.

You missed Professor Peppy.

I know there’s probably more, but i feel like this one is important.

Mr_Dr_Oink, to asklemmy in Edit: (What do you call this dish?)

Toad in the hole is sausages in a big yorkshire pudding.

The name must have been appropriated to refer to this eggy bread meal.

To be fair, I’ve never heard a name for it before.

Mr_Dr_Oink, (edited ) to asklemmy in Which of your favorite creators content quality went downhill very quickly?

I dont know about his knowledge, really, but I watched a few videos when shopping for my most recent phone and found his reviews to be a bit shallow and personal, not particularly objective and somewhat biased.

But i would like to say, the number of views a youtuber gets is not directly related to the quality of the entertainment other than it has to appeal to the most people in order to make it. That often leaves a bland taste to the videos. Its true of youtube, of music, of film… or any form of media really. You dont get popular by being extremely talented and nishe.

It is also not directly related to being smart. You only have to look at someone like elon musk to see that. Hes, frankly, an idiot. But he has done very well for himself to a point. Obviously, he’s fallen off now,

Fact is, not agreeing that Marquis is a good youtuber is not equal to being triggered, and its kind of ironic coming from the white knighr who cam running to his defence on a fairly obscure message board. :)

Mr_Dr_Oink, to lemmyshitpost in Be safe out there, Atlanta.

Mr_Dr_Oink, (edited ) to programmer_humor in Programmer tries to explain binary search to the police

I’ve had a look into it, and it doesn’t work if you try to do it mathmatically. You always need more than 3 gos on the seesaw.

There is a solution in the replies to my original comment that is the actual solution, and it works every time and is much simpler than any grouping method.

It involves assigning a letter to each person and then aligning that with a grid of positions “left” or “right” or “none” on the seesaw. Over the three rounds. So, person A is on the right all three rounds person b is on the right for 2 rounds then on the left for the 3rd round.

You end up with a list of 12 patterns that do not repeat or mirror any other pattern like “LLL” “LLR” “LRR” “LR-” etc. Then you do all three rounds and compare the position the seesaw was in with those patterns.

If the seesaw was down on the left 2 times the down on the right the third time then you look for which person had that pattern in this case it was person B. So they are the one with a different weight and they were heavier.

Equally, if the opposite pattern occurred. It was down on the right 2 times, then down on the left for round, then that is the opposite pattern of person B and does not occur anywhere else, so it was person B, and they were lighter.
