No Time for Angst rant-off at EZ-Board.
 

Another chat log from Shadowland. I'm warning anyone - this isn't pretty. The ultimate purpose for saying things like this is, in fact, to help a friend realize that dumping someone who is no good for him doesn't mean he's being cruel. Not when there are alternatives such as the one I suggested.


Wireknight: Curse my hu-man emotions.
Raskolnikov: I hear jumper cables to the ears allow you to reflash your bios
Wireknight: "What's wrong, Wireknight, why are you not your bubbly, not spiteful and not filled with hate self?", you ask?
Wireknight: I got dumped from a relationship that near as I can figure I never started.
Raskolnikov: actually, that's nothing like what I was going to ask, but in any event, how'd that happen?
Wireknight: She decided that she wasn't ready with a relationship, and especially one with me, because she just wasn't that attracted to me.
Wireknight: Despite talking with me incessantly over AIM out of nowhere for about six hours a day for almost week.
Raskolnikov: she met a japanese kid didn't she
Wireknight: And telling me those deep dark secrets designed to drive off potential mates who can't handle the baggage.
Star Drifter: ....
Star Drifter: then you're better off without the psychotic bitch.
Wireknight: Heh, yeah, that's what I'd think, rationally.
Star Drifter: Listen to me on this. Before Ary, I had a lot of experience with this.
Wireknight: But I am afflicted by "hu-man emotions".
Wireknight: Plus a biting hatred of hypocrisy.
Star Drifter: here's what you do. Get some Captain Morgan's rum. Not the malt liquor. Rum. This way, when you get drunk, there's a picture of a happy, grinning pirate to keep you company.
Aryanun: hahaha
Star Drifter: If you were anyone else, I'd add "I'm a superuser, so my advice has to be good."
Scastar: heh
Wireknight: I dunno. She still wants to hang out.
Wireknight: Which means she still wants to fuck.
Star Drifter: Well, that puts you a step ahead of the game.
Wireknight: And I'm cool with that, of course.
Wireknight: But I'm not stupid enough to think she won't become attached and have to break all her vows of not-starting-anything-with-me.
Star Drifter: Now, I don't think these are words to live by. However, they are useful when dealing with a psycho.
Wireknight: And I said this.
Star Drifter: "If you fucked her, then you won."
Wireknight: Then I've already won.
Raskolnikov: man, this board is full of embittered fucks
Star Drifter: We're guys. It's hard work for a single guy to get any. The guy goes after it, and the woman either denies or has serious problems.
Wireknight: Pfft, it's never hard work to get some.
Wireknight: It's hard work to find someone you'd want to get some from, though.
Wireknight: Or at least it's a matter of statistical improbability that no amount of work can alter.
Star Drifter: yeah. And that's the problem. Getting some that you actually want.
Star Drifter: Anyway, you have to get her in the ass.
Star Drifter: If she wants to get some and have that kind of perk, then you get perks too. One of them is watching her walk funny the next day.
Star Drifter: Go for the anus.
Wireknight: Okay, even if I was insane enough to listen to your advice, before, I am now no longer listening to your advice.
Wireknight: She's a nice girl. Just confused.
Raskolnikov: no! that's how they get you!
Wireknight: She can't hurt me, not that way. I'm nigh immune.
Raskolnikov: they make you think they're just confused when in reality they're psychotic
Wireknight: I'd just be disappointed.
Star Drifter: Rask speaks the truth.
Wireknight: Yeah, but she's psychotic in ways that complement my psychoses.
Wireknight: And that's what makes her worth more than token effort.
Star Drifter: Linda Blair was a nice girl at the beginning of the Exorcist. She just couldn't deal with whatever urge came over her.
Star Drifter: Crazy people are the same way.
Aryanun: WK
Aryanun: me and SD aside
Aryanun: never
Aryanun: ever
Aryanun: EVER
Aryanun: date anyone you've met online
Aryanun: ever
Wireknight: Yes, you two are the singular exception to that rule.
Wireknight: But I met her IRL.
Wireknight: I just communicate with her over IM.
Aryanun: ahh ok
Aryanun: What would Snait say?
Aryanun: "Fuck her, snag the ass, and go find another."
lrstee0: ...
Wireknight: Okay, this is where I cease to listen to your advice, also.
Raskolnikov: man, for some reason a lot of sl dating advice includes anal sex
Reid: I'm almost afraid to ask what this whole conversation is about.
Star Drifter: Well, considering the kinds of situations that guys at SL get into, sometimes telling the guy to shove his cock up her anus is the only hope for personal gain to both the giver and the recipient of the advice.
