Webster

psychological manipulation of a person usually over an extended period of time that causes the victim to question the validity of their own thoughts, perception of reality, or memories and typically leads to confusion, loss of confidence and self-esteem, uncertainty of one's emotional or mental stability, and a dependency on the perpetrator

Can you spot the difference? I cannot. And cats still can't do this.

Also, it was coined in a play before that.

Again, it's 2024, this is easy shit.

Manipulation of the perception of reality is where my argument comes from. Your rude ass tone and pretentiousness are unwelcome. Have a good one boss.

Sorry you were wrong and it hurt your feelings, but you're clearly the rude one in this thread. Not sure what the color of their ass has to do with any of this though...

I kept it light and friendly, you came in quoting subjective opinions and are trying to tell me based on that, I am objectively wrong. How fitting for the topic of discussion.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

No, you're objectively wrong based on the evidence put forth by both parties, maybe bring some of your own if you want to make a convincing argument.

Lol buddy, you're lost. It was an open ended thought that it could be perceived as gaslighting, by definition, of manipulating humans perception of reality that they must take care of the cats, simply because the cat presented itself that way. Get the 10 ft pole out of your booty cheeks, and lighten up. I've presented my argument and take on the subject, and that's where I'll let it lie, as you are incapable of lighthearted discussion.

What do you mean? I made a very lighthearted joke about your poor punctuation, you probably just didn't get it

It was so awful, I refused to acknowledge it. Merry Christmas friend :)

I knew you wouldn't get it...

Your joke was not that high-brow. Your pretentiousness is showing again.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 hours ago

Of course it wasn't high-brow, it was about a butt lololol
