You should probably read the edit I made. Just saying... I did agree with you and Halo. What I didn't agree with was the whole deal that you made it up to be, which was that "I personally believe that women have no right to be angry unless on their periods."... I'm not acting that you're being mean for calling me out, I'm just saying you're calling me out on shit that I already talked about with Halo and demanding more on an issue that was completely settled. You see that the conversation is over yet still you persist on getting more when there is nothing more to be said. It's almost like you want me to call myself a sexist asshole who doesn't give two shits about women's rights, which is as far from the truth as you could be. That's my perspective of the issue. I said everything that needed to be said and still you come and pursue me for more when there was nothing more to give.


Apologize again.

That's what happens when you do something wrong. You had already reconciled with Halo, but you had yet to reconcile with the person with the most reason to be upset: the one you were talking about. Not only was it a period joke in poor taste, but it was presumptuous. She is upset for a perfectly good reason, and now you're experiencing the consequences of speaking out of turn. The most you can do is apologize, continue to admit you were wrong, and accept the irrefutable fact that her frustration with you is completely deserved. She deserves to be upset, and attempting to take it away from her because you apologized to a third party is also insulting. The worst part isn't making a period joke; it's speaking as an authority on someone else as if you know their personal feelings. You are not an authority on the feelings of others. It is not your place to speak for them. Perhaps, in future, you should better understand your limitations.
38. I dunno, I feel like I don't know you very well Card. What is the one thing people should know about you?

I'm seventeen. Some people think I'm smart. Some people are incredibly nice. Some people are wrong.

Shit, you know what everyone else knows about me now. You should have seen me on old guild; no one knew anything about me. I said I was sixteen, and everyone flipped. I had a short period where I tried to interact with everyone (show my face off) in TC for a while. Since then, people learned what I look like and how old I am. Most of them forgot what I look like.

What /should/ you guys know about me? I don't know. I've noticed that I have a core set of traits that represent themselves in different ways when I'm around different people. I can never get it to be consistent, and I always feel like I'm not representing myself properly, so it might be best if I just not try any harder before I make it worse. If I could summarize, I'm a heavy thinker and speaker with a very rough outside and a very soft inside, and I'm fairly laid back. If I had my way, everyone would be happy.

P.S. My hair is fucking /fabulous/

P.P.S. Not really

LOL I promise I didn't put that in there! Someone actually asked it.


Well, edited.

You're still the best though.
35. Card, what kind of question do you want to be asked?

One that was not asked because they heard me say I like answering questions.

But thanks, person who's not David. You're the best.

How do they even check that? Do they embed a microchip in your hand?


They really don't. Everyone I know just has their parents sign off on them.

That sucks. It's always unfathomably frustrating when I fuck up something that I'm usually perfectly capable of doing, and it always puts me in a real deep funk. If it makes you feel any better, it happens to everyone.

It'll feel better when you nail it this weekend.

Aaah. Card is trying to to confront the cause, not the consequence, bringing up the topic of how poor fucker Elliot became a poor fucker.


Yes. It's fairly easy to jump in on the hatefucking of a guy who commits these crimes, but I would like to point out that the "nice guy" issue, and the Elliot issue by extension, was preventable.

He wanted to "punish" women for not being obligated to fuck him. Watch the retribution video.


That's horrible. Doesn't mean he was born that way, and as long as he wasn't born that way, that means he didn't have to be that way. As long as that's true, I'll call it a shame.

No matter how extreme what he believed was, they were all representative of the same problem; it's all slave morality. There was something that he couldn't have (which made him feel weak), and so he used his beliefs to put the blame elsewhere and paint himself as righteous to make him feel powerful again. I won't call him a good person or a victim, but I won't call him, or anyone, inherently evil. He was a broken, deformed person that didn't have to be that way. As a result, he took the lives of six likely perfectly normal, blameless people, which I'm guessing were women.

There's no one else but him to blame for the deaths of those six people (and the horrible things he said), but as messed up as he was, he couldn't have done it to himself.
First I've heard of him.

I could talk for ages upon ages about people like this, but the truth is that I pity him and those like him. People aren't born that way; they're made that way. Unfortunately, the internet's (and the world's) rampant, misplaced conviction puts these kinds of people at the butt of jokes and further feeds their sense of victimization. It's a similar case to some feminists (though I'd say there are many more kinds of feminists as opposed to "nice guys," a lot of them well adjusted), though one benefit of being a woman is the cultural movement to boost their self esteem and self image that exists at the moment. Men who are experiencing emotional pain in their lives unfortunately don't have anything of that kind; worst of all, the most accessible means of socializing in the world is home to the most toxic people and the most toxic subcultures, and that's exactly where he ran to vocalize his cries for help.

If he had more friends and a greater sense of community, he might have understood that there's more to life than companionship (and more to women than companionship). Conversely, if the world was a more cordial place, there wouldn't be problems to damage people in the first place, and suggesting the world be a better place suggests that nothing could be done. I think the tensions between men and women (or, more accurately, the tensions of lonely men and lonely women) will likely get worse before they get better.

Those quotes make my post look like cited poetry.

I call it "The Brotherhood."

I'll take my millions now.
