The Flood / Re: Origins of your username?
« on: September 17, 2015, 09:04:26 AM »
It's a three part joke/thing that I went with after the B.linding.

So unless my memory fails me, the blinding was january 2013 (might have been 12 but pretty sure it was 13) which meant that I'd been studying psychology for about a year and a half at that point, and I was reasonably sure I'd be going into psychology so that was that part of it.

Unfortunately I was also depressed as shit at that point and I was getting ready to die a shamefurl death if the results of the january exams came back as shit. They weren't great but better than I thought, psychology was actually pretty good considering I had just winged all of my exams out of resignation. So rather than an heroing, I figured I'd just say bollocks to sixth form and go and do a degree in psychology anyway. I mean on paper I pulled out because of health reasons, which isn't exactly inaccurate, I just don't really make a big show of the health reasons being mental illness as opposed to being a rotting walking corpse.

So as I'm sure some of you are aware, when you are in the gutter the internet is a pretty nice place to live. I spent damn near all day everyday on Bnet at that time and to help keep myself focussed on the psychology studies rather than shitposting I went with the name because that's what I intended to be.

The other hidden joke of it, is because I'm not exactly the most well grounded of individuals regarding certain things - Psycho fits quite nicely in the username.

But, in two years time - I'll have actually earned the username that I've purloined and uh I'll have to think of a new one really because I think it'd be kind of pretentious to have your job title as your username. Funny how that works really, but I guess I'd just go with Psy at that point.

That is, assuming this place is still around then >_>
Or at the very least, I still speak to some of you loveable gooks.

This is a really good idea, nothing could possibly go wrong from sharing account details over the internet whatsoever.

Well given how me and said user would both have each others info.

I could fuck with their account too if anything happened.  And that's why I said I could give my account as insurance.

But obviously that's a good point.
But really, no need to psy Mr. Psy
It's just an exchange that requires a certain amount of trust, which I think is fine if you know the person IRL or know them pretty well online/for a long time etc but personally I'd like to be able to extract a pound of flesh in person from someone if they screwed me over in an exchange like that >_>

^Basically what Prehistoric said, just wait a few months and it'll be on sale (hopefully for 50% off) and I plan to pick it up then.

If TTK is as good as people are saying, it's maybe worth £20. TDB and HoW weren't worth £20 combined.

Updated with details for the Nero event.

Master difficulty caught me off guard, I actually have to plan out how I'm going to fight that final battle now.
Its a pretty easy fight.

On my first run Waver gave jing ke and himself like 12 defense buffs so I was fighting an assassin with the tankiness of Jeanne and no beserker.
And thats why you kill Waver off in one round.

I've found that going Lu bu -> jing ke -> waver works well because waver doesn't do enough damage as a support character to take out your entire team with his defense buffs.

The only way you're taking out waver in one turn is if you're running a BBB or BBR.

I'm running an ASB.
Yeh I said it worked best <_<

My problem was that I thought I was going to roll through it effortlessly like I do everything else. So by the time i realized that waver had turned himself into a brick wall it was to late to stop what was essentially an assassin Jeanne rape train.
Yeh, same sort of situation but given that bezerkers are the only real threat to jeanne I take them out right off the bat. Then I remembered Jing Ke has a OHK phantasm and it's like oh better get her whilst Hoi Polloi Melloi II stands there and plays tank.

I didn't have much trouble with it really <.<

Assuming it's the chimera spam then Waver, Lu bu and Jing Ke one.

Protect Jeanne tank -> kill Lu Bu then Jing Ke and just duke it out with Waver until someone drops dead.

I saw the thread a few days ago and skipped it because I was a bit too tired from work.

Now I've watched it and jesus fucking christ.

The bit that I disagree with IA on at the end, is how he mistakenly (in my opinion) puts the chicken before the egg. Someone who is that fucked up wasn't born like that, they are made like that by events in life. So chances are, the rapist really did attack her, because that's precisely the sort of trauma that can make someone go off the deep end especially if the psychological help offered after the incident is substandard or more likely given the time of the incident non-existent.

All of the psychotic behaviours/mindsets/thoughts and the way she's been uh... 'shaping' her son point towards it as well. It's kind of obvious but to highlight the two that stand out, randomly accusing friends/family/neighbours of sexual assault and uh that weird escort shit in the middle of the video that I kind of just fast forwarded through and then the kid being indoctrinated to fear and loathe things like sex in the city (Not exactly a bad thing imo, cancerous bloody show) but yeah.

Then the adage of Hurt people hurt people.
A mentally ill parent abuses/traumatises/fucks up however you wish to word it their child and the child then ends up as a complete fucking basket case themselves and the cycle continues. This kind of illness isn't biologically rooted, you aren't born with an incomplete brain or a malformed lobe or whatnot, it's the effects of trauma being spread from person to person.

It's a real bloody shame to put it mildly, the kid should have been removed from her long ago but at this point I think the damage has been done and it's too little too late to nip that in the bud. The best they can hope for I think is probably being ironed out in a therapist's office for a few years and they might not turn into buffalo bill.

*sigh*

Nah, just wasps and hornets.

It's funny because I've been working next to a wasps nest for the last month solid with maybe 20 of them in the air at any one time and not a single one has been remotely aggressive.

If you scream and run around and flap at them like a chimp on fire, or kill them, then yeah you'll piss them off and they'll attack but if you ignore them and just work around them peacefully they ignore you equally.
That's bullshit because as a kid I killed them and sprayed them with water guns like it was a job. The only time I ever got stung was when I was pulling a bike out of a shed and there happened to be 2 in the shed and they decided "fuck this guy". The only reason they live is to fuck shit up.
Well that'd be payback then you see.

I don't kill wasps if I can help it, I'll just shoo them outside or catch them in a glass and that's that. Oddly enough they can crawl all over where I'm working and they don't give a shit when I move them.

Karma m8.

it was full of so much autism on both sides, as well as on my part. It's funny to me when I look back at it.
I thought it was hilarious, being a bong that doesn't eat meat watching yanks chimp out over a chicken restaurant and the victim complexes on both sides of the line was just 10/10.

The Flood / Re: how much would you say you've changed in the past two years?
« on: September 15, 2015, 06:15:13 AM »
Well two years ago (two years and one month to be precise) I was getting ready to shuffle off this mortal coil, somewhat amusingly right after seeing a shrink and going 'jesus fucking christ you useless bitch'.
Except thankfully my brain danced around that a little bit more and instead of just giving up and jumping off/under something I figured it'd be a better use of my walking corpse to try and become a shrink myself and hopefully do a better job than some of the downright asinine fuckwits that hold the posts.

I mean, I've seen my fair share and a lot of them are really good/helpful/on the ball. Except all it takes to make someone give up is one really bad psych, and I don't want to see that happen to anyone else who isn't as uh... resilient I guess...
That kind of helped shape my goals over the last couple of years, and the person who was once a bitter vindictive little bastard is now somewhat less of a terrible human being. I hope.

So to put it like this, when I finished high school I wanted to be a doctor (medical) because it was interesting and something of a challenge because everything up to that point had been a complete breeze. When I look back, that's not exactly a great motive to go into a healing profession... because you were bored of everything else being to easy. Egh.

After I got mulched and slowly sorted myself out again, I now want to be a psychologist to help people who are also in the mulcher. It's not because I'm bored and it's a challenge, but because I want to repay what I owe over the matter >_>

tl;dr rambling
I wasn't a very nice person a few years ago, I got kicked for six by mental illness and now that I'm on the mend I'm fully intending to become a psych myself and help others as a psych once helped me. Well more than once really, hence it's quite the debt that I doubt I'll ever repay (in my mind at least)

So kind of amusingly, but getting battered with PTSD and MDD made me a better person. yey.
