Thanks, bud. Don't worry about trying to be funny, heh. I am a good example of trying to be funneh lame af. XD Blame the fever, always. Which has gone down over the night, but my head still feels dizzy - and I still have school today. >_<

Jokes aside, I did attempt to change the situation because I don't want my grades to be sacrificed for whatever silent game they are trying to play, but it's hard not to worsen circumstances without being overly aggressive and assertive to make them resent my straightforwardness even more. Unlike the West, the kind of society I live isn't that tolerable towards openness and directness, because for us we value harmony among people more than conflicts that often arise from "freedom of speech". Sugarcoating words is pretty much a must for me in order to interact with my classmates and peers. Telling people around me IRL to fuck off doesn't work for me, yeah. Well, if there's any consolation, I can get a change of group by the fifth week because of some rotation policy or whatever that is.

@Pudding
Random, but the joy when I saw that you play Vita. I thought Vita is pretty much a dead console in Sony's eyes, even though it has so much potential. >_> I have a Vita, but not much games I can play on... I wish Sony would get more developers to create games for Vita.

And more random, that I gave up trying to follow the convos here because I was having lesson, lel.

@CrazyShadowy
I've actually gotten into arguments (I say arguments because the other side was unable to debate like an adult) over what we're talking about right now, believe it or not. People think I'm incredibly cold when I don't make a really big deal about the death of a celebrity; it's not that I don't think their death is meaningful; I think blowing it out of proportion is disrespectful to all the non-famous people who die every day.

@Shoryu Magami
Agreed, I mean, I still feel towards some than others, more so because they were in something or had been in the past that I really liked or enjoyed. When Scott Weiland died I felt a bit more then towards others, but that was due to the fact he was the lead singer and one of the original members of Stone Temple Pilots. My father's favorite band and one that I really enjoy and love myself, that's why I felt the way I did when he died. As for others like when say Robin Williams died (Can't think of anyone else.) I mean, it's always sad to hear about a passing but I just said to myself in a way, meh that's that, another one dead this year. I just didn't care that much, while I did enjoy his movies it just didn't bother me that much if at all that he died.

Interesting that you get into debates or arguments over things like this, then again not everyone feels the way you or I do with certain things. It's always nice to befriend those who feel the about the same way, always nice to share interesting or feelings towards certain things. Gives more in common with them and stuff like that honestly.

Eating cheese that doesn't taste right.

@tsukune
But... I like being funny. -.-

Heh, seriously though; I'm actually a lot more humorous in person/over voice chat, which is something you probably won't get to see given how you dislike the latter. I'm still "Mr. Serious", but my inherent sarcasm and snarky wit come out a lot more clearly in the way I speak in person due to me more or less not having a lot of experience portraying my style of speech over into text very well. This is actually a recurrent problem for me; I've only just recently started to put more effort on this site into trying to make my grammar and punctuation a bit more professional, especially since I have far less personal experience with these tools than a lot of you do (it seems that way at any rate), but when all is said and done being able to learn how to write my exact style of speech is incredibly important to me due to the main character of my project being a 100% representation of myself more or less. Due to this, I have a more personal reason for wanting to learn how to do it better. Humour is actually a big part of who I am, even if I definitely believe there's certain places that are and aren't appropriate for it; this ties to one of the things that I was irritated about yesterday actually.

You've mentioned the way things are in your culture before and I definitely feel like I'm far too tactless and openly forthright to live in your country; I definitely relate to your pain in that situation though since I spent a very large portion of my life having certain social stigmas and also legitimate "brainwashing" (in the form of medications) more or less render me incapable of my freedom of speech or thought (unlike most people in the Western world I did not have freedom of speech until well into my late twenties); something I've already mentioned to you partially before. At the very least I'm glad to hear you'll be rid of the more toxic team members soon enough, and also that you're doing everything you can in the circumstances to better the situation.

As for feeling dizzy; I hear you loud and clear on that one, mate. I'm almost always fatigued and dizzy due to one of my conditions.

@CrazyShadowy
Robin Williams is actually a good example of what I'm talking about; one of the old-school movies he did actually had a noteworthy impact on my childhood since I used to watch it a lot, but I still never made a big deal out of his death. Don't misunderstand me; I don't completely act indifferent towards the death of a celebrity; I simply won't react any worse about it than I would when hearing that a stranger's father passed away. These people were strangers to me even if they did bring something to the world; I don't expect that many people to make a big deal out of my passing.

Our friendship is definitely one I cherish since we are able to connect on several levels, yeah. While I do believe people should spend more time focusing on the things they have in common with others rather than the places they differ, it's still always nice to find like-minded individuals. As for having debates/arguments over these things; yes, I tend to get into debates and arguments with people over damn near everything because I'm a philosopher at heart. I'm very forthright and adamant in my beliefs and I'm not the type of person who believes in superficial relationships or even "acquaintances"; everything I do in my life really is extreme in nature so if I let a person into my life they usually get my entire soul; like it or hate it. This means I don't believe in not engaging in conversations in order to "keep the peace", since I would rather my friendship grow with the people who can discuss things with me rather than facilitate meaningless relationships; I'm not needy enough to require fake friends.

@NekoMizu
And there's your obligatory cheese statement for the day.

@Shoryu Magami
I feel I laughed at that a bit too much, lel. Then again it truly is just about every day that I talk about cheese. And yeah, I'd have to say you do seem funnier on voice chat.

@NekoMizu
S'ok, mate. I didn't think you were laughing at the nastier aspects my past that I hinted at there, nor the death talk. I figured it was in direct response to what I said at you.

@Shoryu Magami
What. I'm talking about the cheese thing.

@NekoMizu
All good; the way you worded a previous response made it sound like you thought you were offending me. I'm multitasking (when aren't I) so I can't completely brain perfectly right now; life's a bitch like that.

@Shoryu Magami
Ah no I meant I laughed at the cheese thing a bit too much. Like I'm still slightly chuckling. I guess you could say it was too cheesy for me to keep it in.

@tsukune
Oh yay another Vita user~
I love my Vita I was really into Trillion God Of Destruction for awhile. Then I learned how to hack my Vita and I'm really invested into Lost Dimension.

@Shoryu Magami
Which movie was it show?

Edit: Afternoon naps are so peaceful ^^

@Pudding
Wait what you can hack into Vita now? Damn. I'm still paying for shitty games, lol.

@NekoMizu
*listens to his pun, then hits him on the head with a newspaper (disclaimer: I do not own newspapers)* No! Bad!

@Pudding
Ever heard of Jumanji?

@tsukune
I don't mind people who play the Vita, even if portable consoles irritate me due to disliking small screens (I hate my phone for the same reason; that and typing on it is a pain in the ass). The only thing that really irks me is several games that I think should be on both the PS3 and the Vita ended up being exclusives to the Vita; I don't want to have to deal with portable just to play a game. One of the best fighting games (Melty Blood: Actress Again Current Code), in my opinion anyway, was actually going to get a port to the PS3 but then a lot of Vita players chucked a really big tantrum about it so now no one gets it apparently; I'm now forced to play it on PC (I hate playing games on my PC).

@tsukune Yeppity Yep! Works well too (I tested it on my lil bros Vita before my own LOLOLOLOL)
You need to have the software at 3.60, if you go over that you can't hack it :c
Thankfully if you're not on it but under, you can do a manual patch and update it exactly to 3.60 hahah

@Shoryu Magami
Mhm! The scene with the spiders always scared me and when that lady gets shot by that plant and faints is always kinda gruesome to me.

@Shoryu Magami
Come on, who doesn't love puns?

@Pudding
I have a random question, how can there be a queen of yaoi?

@Pudding
Despite how many times I watched it as a kid I actually only remember a few scenes now; I don't have a good memory of my younger life due to some of the more complicated aspects of my past.

@NekoMizu
I wouldn't say I outright dislike puns; I just need to be careful of you and your cheese jokes before they become memes or something.

As for your question; really...? xD

@NekoMizu
Sore wa chigau yo!
The real question is, why are you not apart of the yaoi monarchy under my reign?

@Pudding
Because I'd rather be the king of yuri amirite.

@Shoryu Magami
Cheese jokes becoming a meme? That'll be th- Oh wait

@NekoMizu
Sore wa chigau yo!
The real question is, why are you not apart of the yaoi monarchy under my reign?

Because I am not part of that faction? ;)

@Gowi
Is that a FACTion?
