Your wildest confessions
I was afraid to make a lot of money because of an innate fear of counting to large numbers, as that was an occasional punishment when I was younger.
I was also afraid to make a lot of money because I thought rich people were universally hated.
I confess - I was trying to think of something funny to post here since I’m sure people far more witty will have a field day with this thread, but I was unable to think of anything clever.
I confess that I read the original version of this thread once. It was awful.
I once played 1. d4 in a rated USCF game.
What do you think of Magnus Carlsen getting disqualified and fined for a dress code violation?
1. Chess players should be allowed to wear whatever they want. I understand how the CEO of FIDE wanted a dress code considering the venue --- but chess players should be allowed to wear comfortable clothing.
2. Magnus is definitely in the "wrong" though as he agreed to the rules of the dress code beforehand and was fully aware of them. imho, he took a stand to get mass clicks/views as he has been planning to separate from FIDE himself.
I tried to buy drugs as a teenager, my dealer stole my money, so I tracked him down and told the police he mugged me at knifepoint.
I came in a girls eye once without warning her. Felt amazing, but not an experience I want to repeat.
What do you think of Magnus Carlsen getting disqualified and fined for a dress code violation?
Magnus is definitely technically in the wrong, but the rule itself is bizarre and antiquated. Do they want to attract the next generation to chess? If so, forcing your young competitors to be uncomfortable seems like a surefire way to highlight the most boring and unappealing aspect of chess.
The fact that FIDE are trying to bluff not only the best chess player (arguably ever) in the world, who is also their biggest asset, and also a very good poker player, shows how out of touch and idiotic they are.
I'm expelled from my local community college as of like 12 years ago.
It was a public speaking class. We circled the room saying what our weekend plans would be. One girl was babysitting, another was going swimming, and another had to help out their family.
I was going through psychosis for the first time, and I was not having a good time at all. I was having such a poor time that I told the class I was going to blow up the universe over the weekend.
Yeah, I timed it with the Mayan prophecies. It's all my fault as usual.
What's the difference between a Confession in Private and a admission that is public?
A fondness for ones own reflection...
What is this, are you all talking a different language from me, or are you all neurotypical talking in neurotypical code and you all understand each other perfectly well, I need a translator
It's going to be okay.
sisisi generalmente estoy de acuerdo contigo pero a veces cuando no entiendo el cerebro neurotypico tengo que asumar que tienes la inteligencia emocional de un nino, no se como ser mas claro con mi comunicacion, me parece como la escuela cuando los otros ninos se reirian de me por no entender su compartamente raro

I'm not neurotypical and don't know what you're upset about. We were having a little fun and were labeled narcissistic.
I'm a pretty smart guy, you know, but I have close to 0 clue what's happened in this thread over the last 8 posts.
It's clear that is upsetting or confusing and I'm sorry you feel that way. Which sequence of posts are giving you a hard time?

I'm not upset. I just don't understand what garick or mschu meant, and your 'Dudes be jealous as usual.' added to the confusion rather than clarifying. I gather that narcissism is the theme but beyond that I'm making tenuous assumptions. I'm normally pretty good at translating NT speech but this one has me stumped
I don't understand directly how mschu reached the conclussion of "narcissism". It may be in part a literary refererance. I can only assume he was presenting an idea that you and I were boasting about things. Kind of like how if you make a charitable donation public versus private - private tends to be thought of us more virtuous. When I said "dudes be jealous" I was just saying that they were being lame.

MSchu is saying that posting things ITT is not so much a confession as it is a brag, since you are posting publicly about what you did. He's saying that doing that instead of privately confessing is an indication that one is more narcissistic than feeling guilty and seeking atonement.
I thought that my post from Hercules would make the tie clearer, but it apparently did not.
Also, I don't believe that neurotypical is even a thing. Everyone I've ever met has their own divergences from "normal."
