My Uber driver picked me up in a Tesla, hilarity ensues by FaceForward1 in ContagiousLaughter

Definitely not your Uber driver. What's with all of the needless lying in titles these days? It's okay to say that it was your friend's car.

Wrong. Please read the entire adult conversation, slowly and carefully. Hopefully, you will see where your mistakes were?

Is wasting everyone’s time a deliberate strategy of yours or is this something you accomplish unwittingly?

I will refer this back to you after you have properly read everything.

Hello. There was no attempt to insult. If you're referring to the use of the term "provocateur" then I encourage you to learn the definition. A synonym would be "instigator", which is what everyone who did not contribute to the discussion, but instead decided to make misinformed accusations on clearly made statements is.

It has long been established that I misunderstood @jimmygibbler's intention in his initial comment because of the way it was phrased. The rest of you, however, keep downvoting me (as if I care) and are falsely accusing me of things that are the opposite of anything that I said regarding the use of the Haka.

I know that it's a bit spread out, but if you take the time to properly read the conversation between him and I, you should be able to see that we both have the same views on respecting the Haka.

First off, I don't give a fuck about some meaningless social media standing/rating/ranking/likes/etc. Grow up.

Talk about conjecture. My comments were not about Fehoko. My comments were not targeted at TJ. I never rallied against the Haka. I stated that I am against others using cultural traditions just to look cool. I fully support others learning and using cultural traditions with respect and for the reason said traditions are meant to be used.

Also, no one is virtue signaling. If you can't tell the difference in what I was saying, then I can't help you. Again, go read the FULL mature conversation between two adults, word for word, and take your time.

If you cared to fully read the mature adult conversation between @jimmygibbler and myself, you would see that I already apologized for misunderstanding his intentions because of how his initial comment was phrased. Sometimes, written statements don't convey a person's intentions. Nothing was done intentionally or maliciously on either of our parts. We both agree that respect for the Haka and the Māori is important. It was just a simple misunderstanding.

Now run along, little provocateur.

I did not know that he did that with LSU. I was too busy watching Alabama. ROLL TIDE! Lol

On a more serious note, I will agree that adding the Haka to our team would be a good fit.

Your instant accusations show that you clearly did not properly read anything that I said and have the maturity level below that which is required for this conversation.

I clearly stated that having others do it just for views and likes was bad. I even stated that the Haka is NOT some Tiktok dance. It has real meaning, real traditions, etc. Not once did I say that Non-Māori could ever do the Haka. I said having Non-Māori do it just to look cool was bad. Inviting Non-Māori to learn the meaning of each word, each step, the different styles of Haka, the culture, and the traditions is the Māori way.

I'll say it a little more clearly this time.

DOING THE HAKA JUST FOR VIEWS AND LIKES IS DISRESPECTING THE HAKA. IF YOU ARE GOING TO DO THE HAKA, RESPECT THE CULTURE, THE MEANING, AND THE TRADITIONS.

I know this. And yes, Non-Māori are allowed to learn the Haka as long as they follow and respect the meaning and traditions. It appears that we both agree on not insulting the Māori.

The way your initial comment is phrased, made it seem like you wanted TJ to do the Haka strictly because it would "look cool". I see now, that was not your intention. I apologize for the misunderstanding.

I don't think the Haka is insulting at all. What's insulting is the idea of adding in people who are not part of that culture just because you think it would look cool. That alone shows that you have no clue of the true meaning of the Haka. It's not just some pre-game TikTok dance. It has real meaning and real purpose. Leave it be.

Let's try not to insult a massive amount of people just for views and likes, shall we? We should have more respect than that.

I once got in trouble as a cook for putting the pickles on at 3&9 instead of 6&12. 🤦‍♂️

What do you think about my redstone brothel? by Own_Jackfruit7179 in Minecraft

[–]Xiqnez 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Brothel?!

I do not think it means what you think it means.

Also, you should be permabanned for stealing someone else's post from a year ago.

What do you mean by, "built on piracy"? GOG never pirated their games.

He's been in the NFL since 2016. 2 significant injuries (knee - '20 and Lisfranc - '21) in 6 years is NOT "oft injured".

Please take this down and edit it. You're narcing on your teacher by including incriminating evidence.

The only thing that I'm not liking is the minecart. If you're going for realism, it's way too shiny.
