i mean i didnt take you to have such thin skin being close with verb and all so i apologise if i got on your nerves.

it was really all in good fun. ive had a few laughs with some of my sep7 friends at least.

i think its kind of weird that it bothered you so much but yeah, sorry i guess. didnt mean to actually piss you off.

i wouldn't say thin skin

she's actually been remarkably patient with you, to a fault

a simple pm would have sufficed

considering shes pretty passive to begin with i didnt even begin to realise she was annoyed until just now

maybe its just misreading on both accounts idk but i thought it was just fun and games. no one said anything to me.

sensitive may be the better word im not sure

i actually thought about saying something, but i didn't wanna come across like a fuddy-duddy white knight or whatever the fuck

it was funny but it got weird when you started saying stuff like "i'm meeting you whether you like it or not" and that's when i started thinking "hmm, maybe he's taking it too far lmao, maybe i should say something"

and then i didn't, that was my mistake—though in fairness, she could've been more assertive earlier on

but it's whatever, we can stop talking about it now

yeah i gotcha. in hindsight if you dont really know me or hear me talk about it it doesnt come off as id like it to. secondclass even came up to me and asked me about it and i was just like "yeah man its just memes".

but yeah not really worth talking about it lmao. it sucks it went on for as long as it did. i dont enjoy stepping on peoples toes for no good reason, "memes" being a bad reason.

I think that being 100% honest is just as fruitless as trying to know everything in Decartian logic. People aren't honest or liars, just shades of liar. The most honest person is someone who lies without meaning to (like guestimating things when recounting a story from a long time ago), the least honest is a compulsive liar.

All the more reason to believe that people are generally more "real" on the Internet, if you ask me.

Nah. Since everyone is a liar, relaxing social conventions puts less of an emphasis on being honest. Outside of the absolute sticklers on honesty (Mr. Shares-His-Address-And-Real-Name), everyone is more comfortable with lying when it both has less of an impact on the people they're talking to and nets them more attention with little-to-no extra effort.

i forgot to respond to this

Sure, but nothing you described here is exclusive to the Internet—people aren't uncomfortable with lying in person, and you'd be incredibly naive to believe otherwise. The movie Liar Liar tends to highlight just how often the average joe tends to lie on a day-to-day basis, notwithstanding the Internet.

You could try to argue that the Internet makes it easier, and I wouldn't disagree, but I would argue that just because it's easier doesn't mean it's more frequent. It's just streamlined, I guess.

I also think there are more "absolute sticklers on honesty" than you choose to acknowledge, but that's speculative.

Either way, my mind is pretty much decided on this subject. Not to sound arrogant, but there's pretty much no chance of you changing my mind—you seem to be arguing from personal opinion, whereas I'm arguing from what I'd consider to be facts of reality. All rooted in what I believe to be the ultimate form of communication.

its not like flee would meet with you anyway when i was in brussels the man practically ran away from me

I can be very creepy or passive agressive as a person, so if you feel like I'm acting weird, just stay away from me or tell me to stop. That said, I would meet you guys, but I have no money to travel, I don't think you would want to travel to my place either.

COME TO BRASIL

I've been wanting to save up some money to buy everyone tickets and fly you all out to some location which would suit everyone.

I'm not sure what would be the best location though? New York? Washington? UK or Ireland?

despite it maybe being a tad awkward.

At risk of backtracking, this is why I wouldn't do it first and foremost. I don't try to intentionally put myself in awkward situations without a clear benefit, and I don't see any clear benefit from this. It would be a story, and that's about it.

well, it's not like you live a life where you only do things that 100% benefit you...

but w/e, i said i was satisfied lol

Bish I'm 100% about me

I help a friend move because he gives me food afterwards

I talk a friend through a rough patch because I'm gonna need them for emotional support sooner or later

I chose a salad because I celebrate my health

It's all about the ego

That feel when aria agrees with my sociopathic views.

Honestly there's no one here I would mind meeting in person. Obviously there are users I get along with better than others but for the most part y'all are alright.

Flee would probably intimidate me to the point of uncomfortability though, motivated people scare me.

The sexual tension between me and verb would be palpable.

When were you in Brussels?

the week they had the bombings

Oh man I'm really good at meeting people from online and taking it from awkward to comfortable fast. It's a skill I've acquired from many Tinder dates, those are awkward as FUCK in the beginning
