Make alcoholic ice cream by pouring wine onto ice cream and let it set.

Well it could be any number of things such as mis-identity with mistaking a old man with a old woman behind all the wrinkles or the fact that the male penis grows weaker with old age, meaning that it may entirely retreat into the body allowing them more room to pull up thier pants.

What I love about this post is that you could argue that Trollbear is one of the options listed, and not the subject.

What I hate about this post is the lack of the Oxford Comma.

Make them watch obscene amounts of japanese henatai, particualrly tetacle based ones so they get a grasp of the words and how they are pronounced. And its something they will willingly do in thier own time too so dont forget to set that henatai homework.

If you are serious about it, i kid, just get them to watch some japanse shows so they get a grasp of the language, kids shows even. Similar concept but this one is more do-able.

It's just the PLACE you have in the community that's in question.  Right now, you're wobbling between "village idiot", and "hyperactive aspie", with maybe a touch of "belligerant drunk" thrown in for spice.

Well, so much for second chances.

I am behaving,

Right.  We seem to have different definitions of the term, and your definition has put you right back into the "chew toy; not to be taken seriously" catagory.

Is there anything i can do to redeem myself?

I genuinely do wish to be part of this community.

You can still be part of the community.  We don't boot people out for things like this.

It's just the PLACE you have in the community that's in question.  Right now, you're wobbling between "village idiot", and "hyperactive aspie", with maybe a touch of "belligerant drunk" thrown in for spice.

I suppose every forum needs one to balance out the infinitely cool members and make them look cooler.

Like you i suppose.  :|

It's not relative, Trollbear.
It just IS.

Shame, should i put on the jester's hat and warble some nonsense drunkenly, while dancing round the village square M'lord'?

That would actually be kind of cool. Like GASM street theater.

You see, Sir Bearington, to put it terms that may be a bit simpler, either you are perceived as an equal and upstanding member of the community, or you are perceived as the person everyone slaps around when their bored.

Now, it's not hard to be viewed positively. (Your apology, for instance). But then, when you backslide, and don't show that you've actually changed the problematic behavior, it's back to chew toy. Digging in your heels doesn't help, as it just hardens everyone against you.

Luckily for you, though, there isn't really a time limit. So, if you're serious about being a community member, it can still happen. Just show the rest of us that you're more than a persona.

I can't get "beta" from context here, either. Could be as opposed to "alpha", like the wolf that gets humped a lot. Or could be something to do with "betamax", i.e., 80's VCR FAIL.

If an alpha is someone who is socially fully functioning, and capable of sound interaction, a beta would naturally be the next step down.
The term originates from the animal kingdom, alpha being leader.
Beta was a phrase colloquially used to describe someone that struggles in a social environment.

No, "Beta" is FC-ese for the guy who always takes second place, the guy who chats up a girl all night only to have her leave the party with an "alpha", etc.

It's sort of proto-PUA talk.

IOW, the wolf that gets humped.

In my head I hear that in Valley girl-ese. "God, you're so BETA, Trollbear. Like, groaty. Beta to the max."

No, "Beta" is FC-ese for the guy who always takes second place, the guy who chats up a girl all night only to have her leave the party with an "alpha", etc.

It's sort of proto-PUA talk.

More like proto-rapist talk. As soon as you start identifying "beta" males, you've already started dehumanizing people because there are no such thing in human beings.

PUA's are essentially wannabe rapists anyway and this "beta" shit falls in the same box.

"I'M GONNA DOMINATE THE SHIT OUT OF THAT BETA GUY SHE LIKES AND FUCK SHIT OUTTA HER." Nevermind what SHE wants.

Interesting...  In my own brain "beta" means "second..." 

Basically, a "beta" is somebody who, while not a leader themselves, makes an excellent support system for the person who IS the leader.

In my corner of the world, a "beta" is just as strong as an "alpha," just more tempermentally suited to helping reach goals stated by someone else than choosing the path for a group, themselves.  (Hell, in SCA terms, give me a line full of "betas" any day, with one or two "alphas" to make the battle plan, die gloriously in the first few minutes of combat, and leave the winning to the REST of us.)

And that's probably the true definition (uber-slow crappy connection today and SWEATING BALLS, can't *quite* get myself together to google) but I suspect PUA usage is somewhat more VOMDERP.

My defininiton, however, makes no sense in this context.

Unless, of course, Sleeper is hinting that he's another account of Trollbear's.

That occurred to me too.

He hasn't bumped forty threads yet, though. We'll see.

Here's the thing. In animal behavior, "alpha" and "beta" HAVE MEANINGS. When you take a word that has a meaning and re-apply it however your imagination tells you to, you lose consensus, and the word loses meaning.

It's like saying "In my own head, 'vagina' means 'armpit'". Sure, it might mean that to you, but when you start talking about your sweaty vaginas, how many people are going to share your definition?

Human beings don't have pack hierarchies in the way that pack animals do. We are social animals, not pack animals. We have complex situational social hierarchies, not pack hierarchies. The words "alpha" and "beta" are literally meaningless when applied to human hierarchies, unless you are using them as euphemisms for an actual human hierarchical structure such as "President" and "Vice President".

Furthermore, if we were pack animals and those descriptors were accurate, you couldn't have a line full of "betas" because the word describes a set position in a pack hierarchy, of which there can be only one.

One of the reasons I hate PUA/romantic self-help type books is that they flat-out make shit up about human behavior, usually cribbed from books on dog training and birdwatching, and not only is it inapplicable bullshit, but it sounds plausible and familiar so people believe it.

If an alpha is someone who is socially fully functioning, and capable of sound interaction, a beta would naturally be the next step down.
The term originates from the animal kingdom, alpha being leader.
Beta was a phrase colloquially used to describe someone that struggles in a social environment.

Silly me for think it was a brave new world reference

Dog training????? I guess you're right, now that I think about it.
I wish Cesar Milan would walk them around with a pinch collar.  :x
