It seems like people just want a reason to be offended. Nobody gives a shit about INTENT any more. Substance no longer matters, only image.
Unfortunately, this runs headfirst into the signal vs carrier; or rather, "if you're communicating a message, it's up to you to make sure the message gets across correctly."
"But I meant to say" vs "what people heard".
We've had some pretty long discussions about that, here.

Apparently that's a physical impossibility. Even the most innocuous of statements seems to enrage the locals. I'm really not trying to antagonize anyone. I made one joke, not even a harsh one, and since that point every post that I've commented on has drawn a negative response.
So you've got this friend, right? Known him for years. But then there's a serious argument. Real bad blood. The friend comes around to state his case, but there's some giggling idiot standing there making light of what you and your erstwhile friend say.
How the fuck did you not expect the result? Action/reaction. Jesus H Christ. How the FUCK did you EXPECT the universe to behave?Quote
Here goes:
Hello fellow sentient beings and others. It's a pleasure to meet all of you. I'm sure that in time we can grow to appreciate one another or perhaps this will all end in a murder/suicide. You can never be too sure about these things. I apologize if my initial entrance into this forum was a bit rocky. I'm really not a bad guy, in my opinion.
Better.

You're absolutely right. Trying to shake off the monotony of rhetorical dialogue, obligatory sentiments and micro-transactions in pseudo-emotional investment in order to rekindle some sort of real connection, personal involvement and productive existence outside the social boundaries that we've been brainwashed to believe are normalcy sounds like just what this world needs
Holy fuck, this scans exactly the same as one of LMNO's corporate jargon riffs. Congratulations. You've elevated pseudo-intellectual wankery to an artform
Hey Thanks!
Now that I see how things operate around here I figure I'd better start blending in by puffing up my ego and acting affronted by everything anyone else has the audacity to post. If only I could get my head a little further up my ass I could actually start to believe that anyone gives a fuck about what is posted on this obscure and dying, probably due to the shitty holier than thou attitudes that seem to prevail, forum. Your opinion means the world to me, choke on it.
Clearly the obvious answer is to continue posting at a forum you loathe.

Alright, I'm here.

Any advice on interior designing and trying to exit the "BIP"?

It's not pretending it's something it's not, it's creatively highlighting whatever will get people's foot in the door, so that they may eventually shed their former selves, and be more like you
Nobody needs another TGRR. Especially not me. Unless you cloned me, in which case I'd never leave the fucking house. I don't WANT people to be like me, and I hope YOU DON'T, EITHER.
No. I want people to be themselves. On someone else's planet.
And if they can't be themselves, then Discordia will be of no use to them, and they'd FUCK IT UP FOR ME, because there'd be RULES and shit all of a sudden, and I wouldn't be able to shit in the poorbox anymore.
