diss wrote:Buretsu actually got it. Tarot, in case you haven't noticed, is a little psycho. The definition of a psychopomp is one who escorts souls to the afterlife. Please don't set out to correct others, it's not in accordance with the forum rules and makes you look silly when you are wrong.
My phone's internet connection isn't all that great, so I hadn't thought of taking the time to Google for definitions. Therefore I didn't realize what a "psychopomp" actually was. I had noticed Tarot is a bit...off...(personally I don't like calling anyone psycho because my Dad is a Vietnam vet and I've heard too many people judge him that way. That word just rubs me the wrong way, so I avoid using it when I can.)
With all due respect it wasn't my intention to correct. I realize my text could have sounded that way, and I apologize for that. By making the "either" statement what I was trying to say that I saw more than one possibility in what I was reading.
I was also merely trying to put my opinion out there in the open. As I mentioned I hadn't searched for the definition of "psychopomp" but only noticed the "pomp" part at the end. And having Pete on the brain with his pompous parasitic pestering (Chauncey would be proud) was making me associate "pomp" with "pompous" even more.
Again, sorry if anyone thought I was rude or intrusive. It wasn't my intention.
Lastly, I don't mind looking silly sometimes and I can take proper correction from nearly anyone, provided I can understand the reason(s) why the correction is directed at me.
Ok... now that that's (hopefully) behind us, does anyone have any thoughts on my Karishad question from before? (Karishad being Pete's post-loss mortal life?)
