You know, Robin Williams was the reason that I started doing stand-up comedy? My personal hero. Knowing that he did this for Neelix, especially when he was getting a lot of hate? Robin is a saint. Also just a small thing because I wanted to honor the man...

Reason #72151.

7-21-51.

July 21st, 1951.

Robin Williams birthdate.

Unlike Gowron, I can forgive, but I do not forget.

But that's the thing. There's literally nothing to forgive. He didn't do anything wrong.

[–] RojoSanIchiban@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Uh, yeah he did? He was still acting creepy and controlling regardless of his motives.

Edit: I goofed fucking HARD and I apologize for mentioning the age bit.

For like 9 episodes. On top of that, Kes directly addressed it with him and he stopped it. He realized it wasn't cool, backed off and apologized to her and Paris. So... also not seeing the issue.

For what it's worth, I see zero mentions of her age in the thread, so I think that was an assumption on your part

But I'm in complete agreement about the creepy and controlling comments. He wasn't creepy, he was having anxiety over the relationship, and she addressed it herself, eventually choosing to end that relationship.

You're right on the age. That was completely on me, I fucked up heavily there. I mistook another thread as being this one. I've edited the comment accordingly and apologized.

[–] RojoSanIchiban@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

The forgiveness happens after the apology. The forgiveness is required. Perfectly logical, My good Doctor(?).

E: and yeah I wasn't bringing up age; that's too wishywashy given rate of maturity for the species and all that.

That said, I'm old enough that dating a 19 year-old would creep normal people out.
