Joanna #2

Yeah, lie some more. I already had a situation with one Joanna. I see you are Joanna #2.

P.S. My apologies to the Joannas who don't do such things.

Don't really want to start anything, but the ridiculous unfairness of this attempt to gain sympathy calls for clarification.

That "dumbass" was me.

We had a short civilized discussion (on my part) about the inevitability of oversimplifying disease manifestations in films, in favor of the central themes of such films (action, action, and action). OP then stated that Tony did not have PTSD based on the fact that OP's PTSD does not resemble what is depicted in IM3.

The discussion was short because the OP deleted it as soon as I told him that the manifestations of PTSD are not the same in all people and since Tony's symptoms met the diagnostic criteria for PTSD, he had it.

And then OP started complaining and lying in the comments, right OP? How about showing the comments you deleted that should have remained in your email? Or is PTSD not the only diagnosis you have (if you really have it), but we can also add pathological lying and intolerance of other opinions (and facts)?

I think Iron Man 3 is the most half assed attempt at representing PTSD I’ve ever seen if that was actually their intention when writing. It’s so bland that it’s not even offensive, it’s just barely PTSD.

Let me fix it: MCU Posts edition. Part 1

I present to you a new series of posts where I will correct other people's posts with factual information. Some of them might have made a mistake when typing, so I'm just helping them notice.

Let's start with this one from @ratsbanes:

Tony/Space

There are many differences between MCU and 616 Tony Starks. One of the most drastic distinctions is how they see space.

616 Tony sees space as his home. A safe, quiet, happy place he can always go to when he feels overwhelmed by life on Earth. Even if they don't last long, he loves the moments there and looks forward to spending more time in space and going on adventures, either alone or with the Guardians of the Galaxy.

MCU Tony had a traumatic experience when he first encountered the void of space and the dangers that resided there. And then his second visit brought even more trauma and loss.

He dreads it, and the beauty of the cosmos cannot outweigh the horror it inspires in him.

Worst feeling is when you see someone defending your fave but they’re making all the wrong points. And you don’t have the energy to jump into the discussion to tell both parties they’re being utterly ridiculous.
