As a public service:

"I am over this" means, generally speaking ...

• I am done with this.
• This no longer affects me.
• This is in the past, it's over and done with.
• This may have seriously emotionally upset me in the past, but it no longer disturbs me.
• etc.

Coming to a personal acceptance of "this" can be a great weight off of one's shoulders.

And so, I feel so happy for people when they come to such acceptance, as it can only make their life and experiences going forward more pleasant, not just for them, but for those with whom they interact.

So, to all who are filled with existential angst, I hope you come to your own personal epiphany and fulfill your promise to yourself (to no longer be bothered by something) when you can shed that burden with a **FINAL**

"f*** I am over bullsh** on this site"

:-)

I feel like there is more to this story -

probably more of a philosophical pondering provoked by peasants poorly protesting the pinch of peradventure...

>peradventure

That's a new one for me...

Ongoing annoyance about the in-game attitude of certain players. Note - The statement at the end of the post is a direct quote (well, without the *** redactions) of an in-game comment that I saw (not my game).

Alas, it appears the player doesn't subscribe to the definitions I noted.

(And yeah, I was feeling equal parts bemused, sarcastic, and locquacious at the time :-) )

a very real life skill in the year of our LORD two thousand twenty three is knowing when to ignore or chuckle about things on the internet

No argument from me on that front.

In this instance, my reaction was more of a prayer that indeed, the player had made his comment in earnest and would either stop acting like a petulant troll/child/complainer and just enjoy playing games with the rest of us, or just stop period :-)

My prayer, alas, was not answered.

It is important to ask oneself, "Did I err?"

You're right Twobeard. That would be a person's conscience. Unfortunately, in today's society, there's a trend away from using one's conscience to keep them grounded.

Is there a hall of fame for posts? I submit Twobeard's

"It is important to ask oneself, "Did I err?""

Thingol explained it better than I could, which would probably just turn into a rant about the extinction level event that is shamelessness.

So, let me just say . . . there are damn good people on this site. Y'all give me hope, even when my dice do not. :)
