[OOC] Metroid: Final Protocol

[SimpleWriter]

A lot. I will edit, thank you.

[FalloutJack]

@AlternateMan You are feeling posty, veeerrry posty... Your eyes are glued to the screen, your fingers will not stop typing, your mind is focused so I can get us moving...! Bwa ha ha ha ha haaa!

[AlternateMan]

Vekt has a sister named Scal.
*badum tsss*

[FalloutJack]

Zeroeth post in character files has been revealed.

[AlternateMan]

What do you mean bad feelings? We're gonna deal with some parasite abusing baddies and walk away from an explosion! Surely none of our cast will be mortally wounded or be infected by the killer blob parasites!

[CAS1006]

May I make a first post? Mostly so people have something to see other than a T posing alien with no dialog yet? XD

@UltimoScorp

I mean, you kinda just ignored the Medic.



So it begins.

[UltimoScorp]

You posted while i was writing, sorry.

I've edited in a little thing just for him :)

[CAS1006]

@UltimoScorpIt's fine, I was just teasing.

I'm typically pretty sarcastic, so if I point the finger here or there, it just a laughing wink sorta thing. I hope that clears the air a bit. XD

[UltimoScorp]

nah, it's cool, I'm glad you pointed it out cause i might have missed it entirely otherwise.

[SimpleWriter]

Why is there nothing going on for days, but when I'm at work in like 2 hours the OOC fills up faster than (Insert Not funny WW2 reference joke here) problems at the office on Monday mornings.

@SimpleWriter

Yeah, I'm not going to touch that one...

[SimpleWriter]

My fingers drip black humour.

I studied in History, though, so I've legally got the right for it... Right? :^)

@SimpleWriter

Pretty sure most curriculum mandate the studying of history. And while everyone has Black humor to a degree, usually there is... a boundary you have.

It's like joking about massacres to people, and you find out they have heritage that died in that. It suddenly becomes a lot less funny.

[UltimoScorp]

Yeah i don't think knowing about history makes genocide jokes okay.

[FalloutJack]

@SimpleWriter I turn my back to eat some dinner and someone's making not-funny holocaust jokes. Cut it out. Just...no.

This would be less of an issue in, say, a Hellsing thread, but it isn't one.

[SimpleWriter]

Geez.

Didn't know you guys were the soft type. Sorry if it made you uncomfortable. I do it so often with my friends IRL that I forget not everyone understand how un-serious it is.

To me, it's a way to mock what evil was done and remove the power it hold on modern minds. If you refuse to talk and joke about it, it means the Terror won and it leaves a permanent scar. It would be different if it was recent, but this is over 70 years ago. I do same jokes with any Historical events from Antiquity to Modernity. I guess the deeper you delve in it, the less you remember how serious it actually is/was. I heard plenty of Jews make jokes worst than this, mind you. Stating the same reason as I did. Though, that's no excuse.

Anyyyyhow, I know how to admit I was at fault when I was, and I was. Sorry. Extra sorry if anyone here has any ties to what atrocity was perpetuated back then. It will not happen again.

@SimpleWriter

I'm not mad, it is just my best friend has family that died in that sorta thing, and normally I would never try to take offense in place of someone.

Hell, I have my own dark sense of humor, but behind closed doors. And I agree, removing terror of something is empowering, but there are ways some things come off as tasteless and sometimes just insensitive, which just removes the human element. And I'm not the biggest... Empathetic person, but I believe there are just some boundaries some people need to realize.

(Which is funny, because I'm the type to mock SJWs in most cases because they are extremely one sided in most cases and will try to silence any "Politically inCorrect" thing. And yeah, Humor should not be politically correct. But at the same time, I don't think we should joke about mass genocide or things like 9/11. Same to Cancer. Literally anyone can develop it and it can be fatal. Same to any debilitating illness or things that effect the mental state of someone.)

My point is, some things are just better behind closed doors rather than out and about.
Like if you call someone a bitch for being a bit snippy, the world just would suddenly turn on you in that thread.
Which it is why it is better to just avoid that, or make it tasteful so we can wink and nudge at each other. That is all I'm saying.

Otherwise you just attach a bad stigma to you, and the thread.

[SimpleWriter]

I forget how badly words through a screen conveys emotion and sarcasm. Face to face, it never really was an issue. If you see me, you know I'm neither an ass nor a heartless bastard.

Just a honest idiot. ;)

@SimpleWriter

More convinced by that last part.~
