Had to continue the story. You can catch up this round though!As a GM I hear a lot of incredible dumb things. There's one story of, sadly, many.
Poor Brovo. I feel for this guy, you know. Stupid people ain't easy to manage. A was a lazy, irresponsible, nightmare of a co-writer.
There's fuck-all wrong with being busy, but there is
a lot wrong with being irresponsible with other people's time.
Now, I wanna recommend (whilst "bitching" about a legitimate annoyance of my own) that people learn to properly manage and deal with the things which annoy them. Congregating online to wallow in a bubble of self-importance, judgemental hatred and bickering, and seeking vindication and sympathy from fellow wallowers is in no way a positive, or constructive way to not only deal with pet peeves, but contribute to a creative community. Whilst I agree that sometimes insight or advice shared by others can provide clarity or closure for people experiencing similar barriers (it's a barrier to your happiness and Zen, not a permanent annoyance deployed by life to fuck with you. It's all about your head space), but in a thread like this with this sort of basis and context, it loses most of it's constructive, positive merit.
If I were to even list, nevermind bitch about everything in this world, or even my day so far that pisses me off, confounds me, or otherwise makes me wanna build a high-yield explosive device in my basement, this thread would probably implode under the strain, and your brains along with it.
However, I've learned how to manage the space between both of my ears, because that's all that matters. I dictate the world around me, it does not dictate me.
