Notes

Note for these interesting times. User talk:Iridescent#Reply, having slept on it is a smart take on what is likely to happen on WP for the next few weeks/months(/years?). I promise to try to (a) be less snarky than usual, and (b) be more understanding of others' snarkiness than usual. If you think I need to dial something back, emailing me to say "Dude, maybe dial it back" is more likely to work than publicly posting a lecture on my talk page. Only because I'm human and don't like getting embarrassed.
Normal humans: I'm an admin again! Not around too much, so best to ask another admin for help, but I'll do what I can, when I can. For the foreseeable future, I'm even less likely to have time to help than normal. Still responding to pings and talk page notes about stuff I'm already involved with, but any other requests will probably be politely deflected.
Admins: If you think an admin action I've taken in the past is wrong or no longer useful, go ahead and undo or change it without feeling like you have to talk to me first.

Folly, thou conquerest, and I must yield!
Against stupidity the very gods
Themselves contend in vain. --Friedrich Schiller

October harvest

today's music is particularly charming, - enchanting, said a critic about the Mendelssohn that I heard on 3 October, - this video is older, and the YT in the article comes with a Bach encore as she played for us. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:42, 11 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, I thought I stole those apples already! [Darwinbish steals Floquenbeam's apples as well. Getting fatter.] darwin bish 14:51, 13 October 2020 (UTC).[reply]

I read in a picture on the internet that an apple wakes you up better in the morning than coffee. True fact. Drmies (talk) 14:52, 13 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The "true fact" being that you really did read it in a picture on the internet? Or that apples actually do wake you up better than coffee? My newest brilliant plan to become a bazillionaire: genetically modified apples that splice in the gene of the coffee bean that makes ... wait for it ... caffeine! Do I call it a coffle? appee? coppee? affle? --Floquenbeam (talk) 15:12, 13 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

16 October memories if you want to see that in 2012, Darwinbish stole stroopwafels --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:28, 16 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I think she's still stealing food off people's talk pages to this day. A one trick fish! --Floquenbeam (talk) 02:14, 17 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

no --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:20, 17 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Here or ANI?

I figured I'd bring this here first as I noticed you gave a warning for their harassment on my talk page (thanks by the way). PA from this ridiculously disruptive editor. I think a sterner word is in order. – ².O.^Boxing 18:42, 17 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Did you really come here to cry like a child? No sterner word is in order because you tell an admin to do it. I'm tired of you. If you don't stop harassing me, I will act properly. Everyone can check your last week's history and see you always have come out of nowhere in every topic I'm involved and accuse me with something without stopping. Constant harassment. Enough is enough. I don't want you near me. Don't you fucking get it?

Floquenbeam, I told you I would never do what you told me not to do and I followed it perfectly. But this guy right here is a different story. I always wanted to report him for harassmentsince day 1 but I don't know which approach to take since I'm new. I'm lost at the moment and really tired. This guy has a personal vendetta against me to get blocked and he'll never ever stop. I don't care any more. Enough is enough.Perm 18:52, 17 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You're right, enough is enough. I've blocked you for a week. More on your talk page. --Floquenbeam (talk) 19:15, 17 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not trying to cause any issues but just thought I should point this out in regards to the whole "but I'm just a noob" approach. – ².O.^Boxing 00:34, 18 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Holy moly, I used my admin glasses. That was disgusting. I hate men sometimes. Drmies (talk) 22:35, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Ouch

so much for Ponyo's AGF approach --Deepfriedokra (talk) 20:31, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I know, I hadn't seen that (or it hadn't been posted yet) when I blocked. Ponyo is too nice. Perhaps I value her time more than she does? :) --Floquenbeam (talk) 20:33, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I felt I had been overly snippy when I saw her response. --Deepfriedokra (talk) 20:36, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Nah, both of you were nice. But the uninvolved view from outside (i.e. my view) is that your good natures were being taken advantage of. No productive human would think that was a reasonable request, regardless of how complicated our rules seem. Ergo, they aren't productive. --Floquenbeam (talk) 20:42, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

That was what I was thinking while I was snipping. --Deepfriedokra (talk) 20:44, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It wasn't so much being nice, more a case of being curious as to where it would go. The Bon Cop, Bad Cop bit was fun though!-- Jezebel's Ponyo^{bons mots} 20:53, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, then I ruined the experiment, sorry. I'd guess that if you watchlist their talk page, an unblock request is imminent. You can watch to see where that goes. --Floquenbeam (talk) 20:56, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You have carte blanche to block anyone on my talk page at any time. Except me. -- Jezebel's Ponyo^{bons mots} 21:02, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Since you're giving me the permission, does that mean I can call them CU blocks and they can never be undone? (recent posters to her talk page User:Drmies, and User:Deepfriedokra, your fates hinge on her reply....) --Floquenbeam (talk) 21:06, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

<shakes magic 8-ball> "Reply hazy, try again".-- Jezebel's Ponyo^{bons mots} 21:14, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I can hazy checkuser? --Floquenbeam (talk) 21:16, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Only if you iz ceiling cat --Deepfriedokra (talk) 21:32, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I hate it here. Drmies (talk) 22:36, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
