I have no idea what Redneck refers other than it’s the name of a guy who appears on a discover program about aquariums .. he makes the tanks .. it’s an American thing


Surely you saw the link Redneck / Redway

So’s redneck. And the “above post” is irrelevant with what I’ve said about the fact that the timing doesn’t matter. You chose to be inappropriate and that’s on you, whether you said it yesterday or 5 years ago.

At the moment, it’s more effort for me to read your posts than not, since you’re on my ignore-list. I think I’d better go back to ignoring you. You’re not a person who makes a great deal of sense or takes accountability for anything you say, and I really can’t be doing with that.

You can surely see that YOU assumed I was dissing you … incorrectly ?

You call me for misunderstanding things yet you appear to be just as bad !

Zizu, not sure why you think it's so odd that Redway quoted himself? I've quoted myself before, basically when I wanted to add something to what I'd already said or highlight a point I'd made previously :shrug:

I wonder, Niamh. I really do.

And the fact that he was so pressed about it through about 3 pages. Like, what the hell? Who does that?

You wouldn’t criticise yourself though as he did …


I often quote myself.. I did it in yesterday in a football thread but only to show that I something I predicted came to fruition.

It really isn’t that complicated …

And like I said, this forum isn’t WrongPlanet. Clearly, most people (including Niamh) understood. It was a simple, simple subtext that most people wouldn’t bat an eyelid over but you chose to go ’round and ’round the houses with, expecting everyone to accommodate your misinterpretation of social subtext. No-one else struggled to understand. Just you, and you thought you were entitled to people to make even the blatantly obvious more obvious, just for you, one poster out of hundreds.

It can be seen TWO ways though

I took it as though he was telling the writer to ‘stop’

Well I wondered at the time why he was quoting himself and even commented .


To be honest there are better ways to agree with oneself in a forum

Any of Zizu’s beef making any sense to you, Niamh? Cah I am lost and hanging onto my patience by a thread.

Like you keep being told, this forum doesn’t revolve around you so just get that out of your head. If something confuses you, okay, but don’t expect everyone to trip over themselves backwards a trillion times just to accommodate for your specific way of processing/mis-processing basic social subtext. Expecting that makes you look entitled. What part of that don’t you understand?

I mean, do you see why I mostly ignore you, when you act like this? Can you not see how incredibly annoying you can be?

Kate! 01-06-2025 11:36 PM

Ok this is uncomfortable now.

Let's give Zizu a break. Anyone is perfectly entitled not to like him. Let's not carry on? And Zizu please leave it there as well.

Red, I responded to your earlier post but I don't think you saw it?? Xx

Honestly, Kate, it would be a sight for sore eyes if he left it there and admitted that the whole forum shouldn’t feel like they have to bend over backwards for him in-case he can’t pick up a particular cue. He really doesn’t help himself but he needs to learn to account for that eventually. He’s an adult, just like the rest of us. Older than most of us at that. Literally a retired pensioner.

I don’t think anyone really wants to hound him or cause him discomfort but just by constantly pushing this issue like a dog with a bone, he’s putting himself in the firing line, and the natural consequence of that is being questioned about what exactly he’s playing at or trying to prove.

It shouldn’t have to fall to me or Niamh to teach a 60-something-year-old man about accountability or how not to hijack a conversation with his constant misperceptions. He just does it too often at this point for me to be comfortable staying quiet about it, I can’t lie. I appreciate you looking out for him (genuinely) but I honestly think he gets away with too much and expects too much assumed innocence and running around after his misperceptions because of his autism. I don’t want to shield him from the natural consequences of how often his misreadings disrupt things and cause unnecessary nuisance. I just can’t be tiptoeing around that. I feel like that just enables him.

The truth is, he hijacks discussions, puts himself directly in the firing line by obsessively clinging to his misunderstandings like a barnacle and acts like it’s everyone-else’s job to manage those misunderstandings for him. I’m pretty sick of it at this point. I just feel like if he’s old enough to draw a pension, he’s old enough to know that he’s not entitled to a lifetime-exemption from criticism or the expectation of basic group-awareness. He has set out deliberately to weaponise his diagnosis into a shield against consequence, like a naughty child, and he deliberately pushes boundaries over and over again. And he makes many xenophobic, misogynistic comments all the time. That alone erodes whatever sympathy I’d have for him. At some point he will have to sit down and have a word with himself.

You’re in your 60s, laddie. Stop deflecting and WOWing and get yourself grown up. You’re not a child, and the likes of me won’t be pussyfooting around you like one or baby-sitting your misinterpretations of basic things. I don’t think that does you any good, and in any case, like I keep saying, TiBB is not wrongplanet.com, and maybe it isn’t the forum for you if you refuse to acknowledge that and keep thinking everyone should pander to and around your problems with basic social processing that everyone-else, even other people on the spectrum, understands.

Like it, don’t like it. That’s not even my problem. But one day you’ll realise why it’s good to take accountability for who you are and what you say.

Zizu 02-06-2025 03:23 AM

Thank fcuk I only questioned why he’d quoted himself … imagine if I’d killed someone’s puppy or kidnapped Camilla and wrecked Charles’s precious greenhouse !!!

That was the word … and if you really want to do some good for someone then try being a bit more reasonable / tolerant and maybe try being nicer to others


There you go lad … now run along

Sometimes read people’s posts to understand and reflect rather than just form some totally irrelevant, random reply just-because you feel like you have to save face and defend yourself. Don’t be too quick to reply just for the sake of replying. You miss the point and refuse to acknowledge your flaws that way. You panic-reply with some off-topic rubbish just to protect your ego.

Sometimes I do wonder if you’ll ever get it. But whether you do or don’t, I’m not going to treat you like a defenceless, hapless child. You’ve been babied and enabled for a long time but I’m not gonna do that with a 60-something-year-old who has enough vitriol in him to xenephobe the life out of innocent Asian men who wouldn’t like twice at a 12-year-old white girl. I don’t know why people think you’re innocent and deserve wrapping in bubble-wrap. You’re a naughty, bigoted guy, and you know it. One who’s never had to take accountability for anything or grow up, because your wife pussy-foots around you and wipes your arse. If that’s the kind of babysitting you get in real life, it’s up to the people who feel like they have to care for you to keep doing that, but on this forum we are not your baby-sitters, arse-wipers or social-subtext translators. We don’t owe you that nonsense.

It’s not about tolerance (which you don’t deserve). It’s about the reality of you hiding behind your autism and utter cluelessness in the face of basic subtext to be intolerant to others, all-while thinking everyone owes you an adaptation just to make extra-sure that you don’t misunderstand, as-if this is WrongPlanet. Exploiting your diagnosis to avoid ethical accountability or accountability-period. I ain’t on that, fam.

You’re manipulative, entitled and bigoted, not just misunderstood.

It's just these people thinking that they're God's gift.

They make oodles of money though when they hit certain numbers of followers and / or views .

I saw something about a pop star who had zillions of follower and who was making £85,000 for every uploaded video !

He uploads around 5 each WEEK !!!!!

He made 60 to 90 second clips of him and a couple of mates doing little trending dances !

…Zizu and Redway, neither of you have to or should change or adapt your posting ways and styles for the other one’s understanding …but the thread is little things that irritate and to keep it on topic and in that vein, a level of tolerance of individual differences would be a thought…rather than personal criticisms and derailing…

Trust me, Ammi, I’ve tried. People have pussy-footed around him for a good chunk of his life, presumably, and that’s why he can’t take accountability or possibly comprehend why no-one owes him a change in posting-style just to fit him. So he just refuses to grow up. Because imagine treating a call to basic accountability as a personal attack.
