is draou my evil clone?????? Image


I am me. You are you. But I am certainly not you and vice versa. Going on like this, I imagine you will be able to paint whatever image of me you like, as I have no way of preventing you from doing so at this point. Don't mess with the idea.

The post wasn't directed towards you.


But it was a fucking nuclear missile aimed straight at rationality and critical thinking.

RIP

We're all dumber now, thanks to you.

Which I already explained my reasons for to the best of my ability. I mentioned nothing of the boredom description of what you said I did within the post you just quoted, nor in this conversation. I hope you understand my predicament is one that, without being known here, I am having to talk to all of you at the same time in very similar ways. I'm not saying I am disrespecting you or anyone mentioned, as I hope is very clear.

The only reason I am still posting is because of what you said in your first post. You understand that in this situation, I am the only person representing myself.

People doing it out of boredom or no reason at all doesn't change you expected blokes here to mock you (and others) for trying to start conversations, or any other reason. That's why you thought Jutsu was mad at you in his very first reply :p But because you thought that it ended up creating an actual problem when there wasn't one to begin with.

I guess it's too late to try and tell you this is a friendly and chillaxed place now though eh :rolleyes:

Fuck the manchineel tree. To increase our life expectancy, we need to blow up those things, but even then, it still kills you. Who were the fuck faces who planted those things anyway?

I already apologized for my faults with Vorpal earlier in being rude myself. You are also repeating what you have already told me and everyone. I did not previously think Vorpal was mad at me, I think and still believe he was. I am not doing this to upset anything here, I am doing this so I can speak for myself, silly as it sounds. If you have a problem with that, then don't bother with sending over 3 messages trying to repaint the picture about it.

You've admitted to continuing the same behavior, regardless of any person you talk to.

You think you get a slap in the wrist for admitting you're a dick? Dude I'M A DICK!
You're next level.

For the first time ever your nonsensical rambling is welcome.

I don't expect anything from any of you. I already explained why I am continuing to post when you refer to me directly. If you would like this conversation to end, then don't cause it to continue. As for me, I'd rather not be known by how you people decide I should be known as by looking to each other for descriptions of what I have been doing instead of looking to what I have actually done.

To be fair I was just defending the point I made. And the point I made was about the situation, but it wasn't directed at you at all. And its still right even if you dont think so :u

I know you're tired of responding to like 30 people at once and I have literally no investment here so I'm down to tell everyone to shut the fuck up and we can talk about whatever Kanga-B just said LMAO

It is.

Alright, then I'm going to be real honest with you.

You are a giant ball of hypocrisy right now. You claim that people don't post out of fear of negative retaliation from "older" members, but then start off the conversation by acting condescending towards Vorpal. In addition, you also continue to subtly insult him until you got to your "point." You tell Devour not to put words in your mouth and then claim that a good chunk of us are just antagonizing newer members from posting while offering zero evidence to back up your claim, and used this as a basis for a majority of your argument. In fact, you yourself say that it's not even relevant. On multiple occasions, you blame Vorpal for continuing the conversation, when you're literally provoking him with each post. To add insult to injury, you even say that an insult exchange is exactly what you're trying to avoid, when that's literally how you started the conversation earlier.

Look, I get that you (appear to) have good intentions, but you're going around them the wrong way. You apologize for your rudeness, and then follow it up by saying that Devour didn't read your conversation by nitpicking pedantically over his post when what he said was essentially correct. Just apologize like a normal person and stop acting like an asshat by continuing your long monologues about how antagonistic we are and claiming that we're not understanding what you're saying.

Bro I'm like, the dumbest member in Stickpage so help me out here. Would it be correct for me to assume that you're saying regular members always shit on newcomers, thus making "honest exchange of opinions" impossible in The Chat Thread, and it's just people pointing out how others are wrong? Or am I just being dumb again?

I just want you to know, this isn't how you make friends. Actually it's the exact opposite behavior you would use to make friends. Have you ever heard the expression "So you think, so shall you become." It's an expression for manifest destiny, the idea that a thought you have can work through you and become self fulfilling prophecy.

What I'm saying is, sure you're technically treating everyone fairly. But you're also treating everyone like shit. So it shouldn't be surprising when people treat you like shit right back. I don't want another young dude going around the world thinking how he treats people is his prerogative to be flexed over everyone else. Because you'll be due for a rude awakening if you continue on the way you are currently going.

Trust me on this one.

Scusi, but weren't we going to talk about the shitty manchineel tree and how we should destroy all of them so people can feel more safe?
