Rant #2 (or Why I Hate Each and Every One of You #2)

[Freeky]

It's his thing. Whether he can control it or not is irrelevant to the fact that it's what he does, what he has done since long before I was around, and what I knew ahead of time he does. And I still got angry enough to bounce for a bit, which speaks to me not having a very good handle on my reactions to things right now. I should be able to take a "fuck off" in stride no matter who it comes from, and I couldn't, and it's not a good thing.

Or maybe what you said and did upset him instead of of being a "thing." Did you maybe consider that?

[Doktor Howl]

She Literally thought he was a puppy, with the ability to type on a forum.

She's only upset now because he's old and shaggy and farts a lot.

GOOD THING THERE'S NOT A PATTERN TO THIS, RIGHT DINGO?

Uh huh.

Christ what an asshole.

[Doktor Howl]

Christ what an asshole.

Dingo's been waiting for this for months.

Clearly.

[Anna Mae Bollocks]

Nah, I've been over-reacting to every goddamn thing lately. Shit, I got mad at you for telling me to fuck off. That's like getting mad at a puppy for running around.

Clearly, I need leeches.

So, you shouldn't have gotten mad at him because that's his thing?  Or do you actually think he can't help himself?  Or are you really comparing him to a puppy?

Now it sounds like "Dok's an annoying ass and I should be used to it by now" or "Some people you have to overlook".

That was my take on the whole thing.  But what COULD she do?  I'm not Quality People.  I have all the wrong values.

[NewSpag]

Inflated sense of self-importance?  Perhaps.  But I can assure you that it is only temporary and--blablablasnip

Temporary seems to assume you got a plan for how to behave after this "phase"? How about skipping the dickery and acting like a biped right now? It's not too late still, believe me (though you might have to swallow 2 or 3 kneejerk reactions--but you probably deserve those, yet if you manage to ignore those and act like an intelligent person, you'll find this place very welcoming indeed).

Actually I don't have a plan for after this phase.  Well, other than letting the asshole phase run its course.  Cut me some slack man, I've just rediscovered the meaningless of life.  IRL I only have a few close friends who are willing to deal with my asshole phase.  This is largely because of the lack of friend-material people that comes with attending a top 25 university (read: I am surrounded by dumb asses who think that they're the shit).  And yes I recognise the irony of that last statement.

I don't really care if you guys are welcoming or not.  I'm here and there's a good chance I'll be here for a good while. Good, good, good?

Also I refuse to be required to act intelligent OR like a person, but if you give me a chance I don't think you'll mind.

Would agreeing with you make a "good impression"?

Probably not. In all honesty, it'd probably fool us for a while, but if you keep secretly being a dick underneath, it'll all end in tears, I promise.

Better be yourself, be your best self, and if that doesn't work, well, then maybe this place is not for you. But unless you're Poptard, or really-secretly-some-other-troll-afterall, I don't believe that.

Even people that are themselves and still express opinions that most (but not all) people here disagree with, they do get shat upon for THIS IS DISCORDIA and discussions do get heated, but it's a different kind of shitting than people who just barge in here and act like retarded zany arrogant insane knowitalls.

I don't believe I have a "best" self.  I don't believe in absolute right or wrong.  I could be what YOU might consider to be my "best" self but then I wouldn't be being true to myself.  So... if you really expect that of me you better start rallying up people to get me banned cuz (I'm pretty sure) it ain't happening bub.

And if the retarded zany arrogant insane knowitall comment is directed at me (pretty shure it is) am I zany?  Maybe, I'll give it a try.  Arrogant?  Extremely (see god complex comment).  Retarded?  Possibly, but I personally think that you don't really think I am because you strike me as the type of person who wouldn't call a retarded person retarded (a "decent" human being).  Side note:  I would call the retard a retard.  Who cares?  Why does that word carry such a stigma.  I have a few retarded friends and they don't seem to mind.  Knowitall?  Sorry if I came off that way but I believe I've already posted somewhere in here that the only thing I am 100% sure of is my ignorance.

If I apologized for being such a played out trollolol would the regulars care if I left?  If so just pretend I did.

I'm not sure what you mean, but sincere apologies tend to be well-received on PD. Pretend apologies, not so much.

(you need to do some rather bad shit before apologies no longer work, see Cpt.Utopia thread for an example. he really crossed a line. a big fat personal line. repeatedly. you didn't. if you did, you'd know)

I must have misinterpreted your response.  Have a pretend apology anyway.  Take ten.  They don't cost me anything.

Honestly I don't even believe that you really think I'm a troll.  Or if you do, you're one stupid mother of a duck 'cuz your feeding me rather than waiting for me to retreat back to my bridge.

Well, this way is generally more fun!

Also, we're not a singular hive mind, so many of us might be ignoring you, but if not everybody does, it won't work right? And in that case, poking you with sticks is much more funny.

And about being a troll, well ... Your first post "can someone please tell me what discordianism is?" was delicious bait. I wouldn't have replied, even But following it up so quickly with an attitude revealing the question was not at all sincere "welcome to my Discordia"--well that was the part that sealed it for me. Maybe different for others, but that's the core.

Yes obvious troll is obvious and you guys caught on pretty quickly on that thread.  Guess what?  Discordians can troll too!  I seem to be running out of troll steam (that's what I call the air around me after I eat beans) so you may just get your wish.

I may as well just pretend to be him (or her) since you all seem to think that's who I am anyway.

Better not. It's been done and did not end well.

You guys make all these references to poptart and I still have very little idea who he is.  Whether you believe me or not when I say I am not him/shim/itim I would still very much like to see some of his work.

Guess what? We know we can. We just don't appreciate it when people shit where we eat.

If you like trolling, join us on some missions, we got enough of them going on. Elsewhere. (afaict you need ~13 more posts or so)

Ah right, I was going to mention that but forgot. Yes, search functionality is broken because it takes too much server power with as many posts as we got on these boards. Your best bet to find old stuff is

or

enjoy.

You sir, have just tamed the troll.  Since I'm staking my claim here on PD I suppose I really should stop shitting where I eat.  When I hit 50 posts does someone finally tell me what the oh-so-mysterious 50 post rule is? 

[Q. G. Pennyworth]

I think it's supposed to be "don't shit on people until they hit 50 posts."
