Self-Preservation Is The Opiate Of The Masses

Truly, truly sad that some people believe it’s the “Highest Law”.

I mean, if being a groveling, sniveling, cowardly piece of rat sh1t is cool with you, here’s what you look like:

Lunatics Reviewing Music – Part 5

The insane cannibal couple from ‘The Book of Eli’ hums the praises of “Ring My Bell”.

Also heavily endorsed by a fake Italian film director in MPFC in its alternate version: “Ling My Berr”.

(This is where you go to YouTube and try to find the appropriate clip, where applicable and legal, since my link don’t work. And of course I understand – I mean, the vast majority of the people that would watch the whole movie really just wanna see two old insane cannibals humming along to a cr@p song).

Lunatics Reviewing Music – Part 1

Since music is subjective, I thought I’d give a few examples of how even people who are out of their tiny little minds have favorites.  I think it’s safe to say, that THIS, is a great moment in the portrayal of the insane music reviewer.

Absence Of LaVeyan Powers Of Car Movement Costly

“…The cops then checked the block for cameras before arresting
Jackson and charging him with destruction of city property, disorderly conduct and resisting arrest. Fortunately for Jackson, the officers missed a security camera on the home of Jackson’s neighbor. That camera captured the whole bizarre incident.”

Once again, innocent until proven guilty, police or non-police just the same.

But…

Checked the block for cameras before arresting him? Is there any way something could be more obvious? “Ummm…well, you’re under arrest if we can’t find anything to make your “one civilian” be worth more than our “two police officers”…so just hold on a second…” -PUPPY NOTE: those were fake quotes. This is satire. So Nyah!

Re: Title: Militant Atheist Brutally Beats Pastor

Title of recent online op piece: ‘Militant Atheist Brutally Beats Pastor’

Response from (I assume) a CA/A: “…I finally saw an atheist worthy of his name…No point talking to slobbering, snivelling neanderthals. We must speak their language to get our points finally across.”

http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/ohio-pastor-viciously-beaten-militant-atheist-cops-article-1.1493690

Innocent until proven guilty, but if he IS guilty:

That’s violence against someone BECAUSE OF their freedom of
religion. That’s an atheist, advocating violence. The group
that is the “only one with true morality” and prefers “reason
and logic” because violence is the tool of the stupid and
ignorant. I mean, come on…I’m not the greatest writer in the
world so I can’t put it perhaps exactly the way I FEEL it, but come on…EVERYONE knew this was going to happen, eventually. And where there’s ONE example, there’s usually two. And when…etc, etc.

Even further, how STUPID is it for a group to incite/insult (per
Dick Dawk) and ASSAULT a group of people (theists) that VASTLY
outnumber them? I mean, what are you people, morons?

CA/A’s are constantly saying how they’re NOT violent, how that is a horrible consequence of RELIGION, blah blah blah…and then this?

It was inevitable, because people are people. It’s so incredibly stupid because if atheists REALLY want to get into a physical confrontation with theists, they 1) are acting against their prop argument, 2) are totally without any of the “moral high ground” they claim, and 3) are idiots, since in “militaristic” terms they’re VASTLY outnumbered.

I do not moralize, I do not condone…in Spock’s words: “I do NOT approve…I understand.”

My Fourth Comedy Routine – By Puppy

So, this recently entered my brain…

Me talking to a CA/A is sort of like Kirk talking to CAAn.  Kirk is totally outmatched in terms of mental and physical prowess (well…not EXACTLY like it, to be fair…some CA/A’s are really dumb) yet he STILL wins again and again.  The reason?  Besides him being the hero, of course…

Pride.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=movv92UJ36M (1:18-1:35)

When someone is totally convinced that they have the superior intellect (or superior anything) they tend to gloat over that opinion/fact(?).  This makes them lazy and complacent…this makes them lose their focus.  This makes them lose.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LaVIIoRKBlk

…or perhaps an intellectual retelling of Buster Douglas to their Mike Tyson.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rt8LZ8FjGN8

Oh, I LOVE these opportunities to use clips.  People should do this more often!

Both are physical AND mental, whereas mine is only mental.  But you get the general idea.

Oh…the comedy routine:

“CA/As” (Spoken into the mic, then walking off stage).

Pondering The Logic (SATIRE…SATIRE…SATIRE)

Ok, so if so many people love Dick Dawk, and if he SAYS to mock/ridicule theists in public, here’s the billion dollar question:

Why do almost ALL CA/A’s turn into cowards the moment the chance comes to do that to…oh, I don’t know…let’s say anyone that looks in the least bit physically imposing?

You know…not an 80 year old in a wheelchair or a double amputee.

To anyone that says they WOULD, I will allow Jack to speak for me: “*with fake pouty lips* I don’t think that’s true…”

Very brave of you. Really…it’s just…revelatory how strongly you follow your convictions.

– Puppy

P.S. “There are no atheists in foxholes” is an inaccurate statement. I mean, ABSOLUTELY it applies to some…but not to all. I’m sure plenty of atheists in the military would fight (and risk dying) without converting.

HOWEVER…there are no CA/A’s in prison is a much more accurate, almost completely precise statement. I’m not talking about atheists…I’m talking about people that “mock/ridicule” believers. CA/A’s simply don’t exist in that situation. Why? Because they’re scared, that’s why. I mean, come on…it’s so obvious. Another brilliant example of CA/A pride.

As to CA/A’s being “civil” and “polite”, I submit that most want to do a great deal more…IN MY OPINION…but, of course, there’s that old cowardice thing again.

Oh, and about that “Theists only follow the (God’s) law because they’re afraid of punishment” cr@p (I think Penn Jillette said that, not sure…I was too busy reading his climate change denial)…

What would that say about the CA/A’s mentioned above, then? I mean, if you’re gonna live by the rampant generalization, you’ve gotta be prepared to be mocked/ridiculed by the rampant generalization.

Well…Nevermind

Ok, these people make my brain hurt…

Not because I don’t understand what they’re saying…more of in a Jerry Springer “Are you KIDDING me???” combination of disbelief and morbid fascination.

So here’s a quick one while he’s away:

Dawk on God: “Bully”

Dawk on Intellectual Bullying: “Mock them.  Ridicule them in public.”

Enough said, my ears are starting to bleed.

The CA/A Method – A Serious Critique (By Puppy)

“Mock them…ridicule them in public.” – Dick Dawk.

How anyone could espouse this, as a strategy to get people to change beliefs that cause no harm, is…well let me speak off the top of my head: this is a bully’s strategy, this is a dishonorable strategy, this is an amazingly antagonistic and fcked up strategy.  I’ve been dealing with bullies most of my life.  The idea that a RESPECTED PUBLIC FIGURE would advocate bullying is absolutely incredible.  Not to mention reprehensible.

So I posted something like that, only maybe 1/100th as strong, believing, as any sane man would, that NOONE would be callous, nasty and just plain stupid enough to SUPPORT it…and I got this:

“Agnostic Atheist Anti-Theist Foundation: Yes, once someone admits they do not use positive evidence and reasoned logic, mocking and ridiculing their ideas and thought processes(es) is the next best way to get people to change their minds. If people used positive evidence and reasoned logic equally in all areas of their lives there would be no need for ridicule.”

I am, quite honestly, in shock. I can’t believe, fully, that you are actually endorsing this.

You’re saying…basically…that you should try to convince someone logically, BUT if that fails, feel absolutely no qualms about ceasing that, and begin insulting them. That…is just plain wrong. It’s intellectual bullying.

It’s also completely illogical. I don’t know if you realize this, but a person’s first response to ridicule is NOT “change”…you’re advocating (potential) Assault, sir (IMPO), and (potential) Disorderly Conduct (IMPO) and for that you should feel ashamed.

“Assault is an act that creates an apprehension in another of an imminent, harmful, or offensive contact.” NOTE:  Definition varies, but this is basically the crux of it.

I’ve been dealing with bullies all my life. This is no longer amusing. I am leaving this page, and PLEASE do not contact me, or I shall be invoking the definition above…I don’t like bullies.

Same-Day Edit:  Just to be COMPLETELY clear, I am apprehensive that you will send another message (supposedly) “backing up” this one, or ANYONE on your page will do so for you, etc, etc…and such contact I would find offensive.  I’m stating that because I want there to be absolutely no doubt as to my feelings on possible contact.

Dinner.

At dinner, NEVER (and I can’t stress this enough)…NEVER tell anyone if they appear to be taking too much, if you have/haven’t had a portion of X yet, if the fate of the world revolves around one bite of horrid homemade rice mix.  After all, you are the Martyr without a cause.  And just because words EXIST, does that mean you HAVE to use them?

Speech should consist of the following ONLY: the dinner, tomorrow’s dinner, last night’s dinner, how much under-the-table undeclared money you made/missed out on that day, grumbling, grunting, and of course shooting down everyone else’s hopes and dreams with unwavering apathetic criticism.

Those of lesser stature (all except homeowner) do NOT need to be addressed, under any circumstances.  If you deign to acknowledge them, be certain not to be friendly about it.

EVERYTHING must go:  If that last 3 bites of rice pilaugh is going to be dumped, when until JUST before it is, then ask what is being done, then correct the problem either by causing guilt in the attempted dumpee, walking over (see “limp”) and doing it yourself in disgusted fashion, or get a small bag and put the food in there, to be useful as a side dish, most probably a “Here’s to knowingly evading taxation” apathetic triumphant bite.  Then BACK TO WORK, Slacker!

The Delusion Delusion

A logical fallacy and an incorrect conclusion are completely separate. A statement could have a million logical fallacies and be correct, a statement could have zero logical fallacies and be incorrect. The very term “logical fallacy” has become a piece of propagandic nonsense, designed to mentally intimidate and, in fact, becoming a “logical fallacy” in itself.

To quote a famous theist: “This is a soulless society, Captain. It has no spirit, no spark. All is indeed peace and tranquility: the peace of the factory, the tranquility of the machine.”

Do you want that?  As tempting as it may be at times, I do not.

Question I asked AT LEAST half a dozen times on Atheist Group Pages and received only one response, which was worthy of (see below): What exactly does Wicca support/do that is harmful to the world in general?  Or to anyone, at all, individually?   *Crickets*

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5hfYJsQAhl0

“If it harms none then do as you will.”

That is really, really funny…because it’s basically The Wiccan Rede.  Wicca is a religion.  This is in the mission statement of a CA/A group.  So…they want to do away with Wicca, even though they agree with it?  I…can’t wrap my mind around that logically.  Unless it’s a hidden appeal to Wiccans, or a softening of the hard-line stance that has been softening actually for quite some time:  Most anger dispensed with, most CA/A’s are now trying a more “friendly” MO.  Which is GOOD…but are they doing it because they’re suddenly friendly?  Or because they know it’s a good PR move?

PUPPY NOTE: Since erased.  Minitrue!

J.J: (Edited for mistake, understandable given the angst involved (I’m not joking)):  Completely unreadable. Like a highschool girl banged it out in an hour.
Puppy: HAHAHA! A forced edit. +1 for me.

Puppy Edit: 2/12/14 – The SCARY thing is…I have a very strong feeling that there are a considerable number of CA/A’s actively HOPING for a Wiccan to go insane and do something really evil, just so the CA/A’s can include (somewhat accurately) “Wicca” as a dangerous religion.

Just Wondering Here…

To whomever is in charge of that big picture of  “All the Famous Atheists In History” that you’ll meet if there is a Hell, “you’ll have great company…blah blah blah”:

Why isn’t Woody Allen on there?  He’s more famous and (supposedly) talented than a lot of them (again, supposedly…I think he’s a fcken humorless hack).

I mean, he’s OBVIOUSLY famous enough…vis:

http://www.cnn.com/2014/02/01/showbiz/dylan-farrow-open-letter/

So why is he not there?

Maybe (probably) he WAS there, but the Ministry of Truth decided he wasn’t there.  He wasn’t there and he never had been there.

And on Wikipedia, when it lists “famous” atheists, where is Benito Mussolini, among MANY others who were fcken sleazeballs?  I mean, the title of the entry is “List of Atheists”…and it has plenty that lived and died BEFORE Mussolini, and AFTER Mussolini.

But Benito apparently isn’t famous enough, as the ORIGINATOR OF FASCISM, to make the list.

But Stieg Larsson…ABSOLUTELY.

Answer?  Propaganda.  Even if your self-proclaimed purpose is to “educate” and “show the truth”, I guess lying via omission is still ok.  Cuz, you know, the “Common Good”…Mussolini’s inclusion (among many others, mind you) might turn people OFF the facts, and CA/A’s can’t have that.  Even though Mussolini IS a fact, it’s justifiable to leave him off the list, even if it is (and it IS) a lie by omission.

So screw anyone that doesn’t like the Nazi comparisons brought up, as a “logical fallacy”.

Mussolini INVENTED (with some help, but…) modern-day Fascism.  He was ADMIRED greatly by Hitler.  Pretty fcken direct reference, I think.

Quote Of The Day – Morality > Science

Spoiler Alert: From a good movie (‘Extreme Measures’). If you haven’t seen it, this quote is better experienced that way.

“Maybe they are doing a great thing for the world. Maybe they are
heroes. But they didn’t choose to be. You chose for them. You
didn’t choose your wife or your granddaughter, you didn’t ask for volunteers. You chose for them. And you can’t do that, because
you’re a doctor, and you took an oath, and you’re not God. So I
don’t care, I don’t care if you can do what you say you can. I
don’t care if you find a cure for every disease on the planet!
YOU tortured and murdered those men upstairs, and that makes you a disgrace to your profession. And I hope you go to jail for the
rest of your life.”

There are some who call him…Tim (SATIRE…SATIRE…SATIRE)

Puppy Preface:  I went on a “Roleplay-Enforced” MUD, of my own volition.  Therefore I had to expect that I (and everyone else) would roleplay…that is, play their character, not act however they feel, scorned and embarrassed or not.

So I played a character, who was sweet and rather naive.  So when some guy (character) tried to force me, sexually, I played as she would.  When he made her “forget” it had happened and instead made her go to the bathroom and masturbate (how gallant!) to…not really sure I understand this…but to confirm his power and “manhood”, guess what?  I did it.  And when I had to come back to him, pretending nothing had happened…even though PLAYER (me) was outraged, I did NOTHING but play my character:  Nice, considerate, naive, trusting.  And I think I did rather well…you know…ROLEPLAYING.

So when, the next day, I complain IN CHARACTER to someone after they help me figure out what really happened, and the offending character goes off and sulks because he (player) doesn’t like that, it’s a really SAD testament to roleplaying.  I was sad when I had to roleplay liking the schmuck, but I did it…because I’m a ROLEPLAYER…some people need to learn this.

But I degress:

When you can’t get any in real life, try Timothy’s M* School:

“With a slight memory twist, Timothy left Sashana believing that their conversation and his light fondling was him attempting to seduce her.”

Puppy: Is “light fondling” now considered an acceptable means of “flirtation” or “seduction”?

OR Puppy: Oh, hey, wow…yeah, light fondling is a great first move, huh Tim?  I think he watched that MST3K short more than I watched the flippin’ Mummy: “Tackling her from behind is the first step.”
I especially like his clarification: It’s only LIGHT fondling.

“In a library no less, in a private room, he wanted to get her clothes hiked up so he could take her right there on the table.”

Puppy: You wanted to hike up my socks?

“Perhaps she was flattered?”

Puppy: Oh, I don’t know…

OR Puppy: Oh yeah, and you can insinuate HOW you want the intended target to respond.  If so…what’s the point of even playing, Tim?  I mean, just emote that you’re fcking everyone, logoff and make the game that much better.

“But the man’s power was overwhelming and she had to escape…to her relief, found in the bathroom.”

Puppy: “Ok, now this is where, if you DON’T wanna get forced, you have to go masturbate.” – Someone’s apparent thought process.  I mean…when you think about it, it’s just DUMB…it’s fantasy so I’m not gonna get riled up over it (See “Roleplaying”, above) but…WTF is this guy thinking?

OR Puppy: This is great…this is the part where Timmy forces my character to masturbate after failing his “Bleedin’ Obvious Non-Subtlety” roll.  And doesn’t realize she was a virgin.  And then he asks her straight out.  Perhaps, Tim, next time you find a MUSHSEX partner, you should be sure of their info before you assault them in a public place.

“<OOC> You say, “Please skip the subjective analysis of your own behavior I’m sure you’re manly, but that’s hardly appropriate.”

Puppy:  That was me, word for word.  I cannot improve on it.  He was talking about how amazing my orgasm had to be, how manly he was…I felt like watching ‘Men In Tights’.

“Timothy says, “Hmm. She would know that he is probably concerned that if she were a virgin that he inadvertently took that.”

Puppy: And HOW would he “inadvertently” take that?  A REALLLLLY long detachable penis with a mind of its own?

The search continues…

Deep Puppy Thoughts (Part 50)

In a world…

So, basically someone should make a movie about vampires vs. humans for total world domination…and the vampires are winning, then someone (human) prays or does something really cool/weird/unusual to invoke Ed Harris’s voice saying “Cue the Sun.”

Then there’s a decisive turn in the war, and the humans win.

And they get along for a coupla weeks after that…like in that sh1tty Independence movie, and then it’s back to work hating each other for really really dumb reasons.

(Puppy Edit: He would know not to contact me because of our last communication, in which I responded to his request to use OOC info IC…as follows – “When I said “tone down” I basically meant “No Mudsex”, not “you can decide to change your character’s clearly expressed feelings…Completely unacceptable.”)

Re:
The stocky, spade-bearded man sends you a telepathic message:
 “A peaceful morning?” (Puppy suggested addition: “Did you feel it?  Maybe next time.  BTW, I have an aversion to RPing with males playing female characters.  Fortunately for you, I’m also a fcken dumba$$…so I’m rather obvious about it.  Now, go off and die, my sweet concubine.)

BOOM CHIKKA WAH-WAH!

Response:
“OOC: I am here to wish, not to play.  Please don’t compound your OOC info abuse by being snarky about it.  Nice illegal artifact, btw.”

Too bad mindbenders can read Psi’s, huh Inky?

You don’t have to worry about poison with that glowing, shining ring though.  At least, unless a Templar finds out about it.

Now…keep in mind, you CANNOT use this info IC.  BUT, if you’re clever, you can find a way to use it IC without being obvious about it…same way Inky was gonna ditch my character.

I’m not SUGGESTING you do it…but you could, rabbit, you could.

Oh, P.S. : You also can’t IN ANY WAY use the fact that he has allies in the Labyrinth that work for him.  Now, I mean it!

Armageddon Rules And Violations – A Serious Critique

First, direct quotes from some section of Arm/GDB/helpfiles/etc:

“Role-playing…is not considered an option by the creators of the world, it is a strict requirement. If you do not want to role-play, please go elsewhere.”

“…it is expected that you will play your character consistently…”

“Although it is just a game, try to imagine yourself as your character, and act as your character while in the game.”

“…try not to let your own desires get in the way of role-playing your character…”

Second, my complaint based on this:

“…My character, Evalyn, was named “formally” as “assistant to Lord Oash”.

Privately, she was assured she was now “Aide/Concubine”.  Player of Iancu Oash apparently found out Evalyn (character) was played by me (male) when, after HE requested it, I registered for the Oash GDM forum…

“His response (PUPPY EDIT: see below) makes clear, to me, that his intent is to ignore/phase out my character, or simply avoid her until – without the intimate roleplay connection she had for four days straight with a Lord, including being told intimate secrets/shown around his estate/being promised-offered anything I basically wanted in shops…etc… gone – she inevitably gets killed or just fades away until such time that he can use his OOC distaste to “legitimately” alter his IC play enough to dismiss her.

Suspending his character basically would give him what he wants – I would die or fade away, problem solved.  So I’m hoping there’s some way you can tell him, basically: roleplay your character as your character, without (potential) homophobia creeping into it, without using OOC feelings to (not so subtly, or) subtly alter your play until it’s seen as “acceptable” IC to dismiss someone you basically gazed at with doe-eyes until you found out OOC info.

Third, quotes from Iancu’s player:

“…I would be more comfortable toning down the more intimate aspects of the character relationship, honestly.”

Puppy Translation: You’re a guy?  I gotta cut you loose…I’ll find out some way to do it “IC”, cuz I’m a ten year vet and know how to abuse the system.

“It should be easy enough to make the decision ICly.  I was already sort of hedging my bet with what role would be best for Evalyn in the clan you – might have noticed…”

Puppy Commentary: Complete lie.  See evaluation, part four, below.

“Hopefully it’s not too awkward or upsetting to Evalyn if other aspects seem to cool down.”

Puppy Translation: I hope you don’t mind me using OOC info to alter my IC behavior.  Hopefully it won’t be TOO annoying to you, cuz I’m gonna do it, one way or another.

I mean, this guy’s running slipshod over the rules.  OH!

Fourth, summary of Inky situation:

Well basically, it Orinoco blows.  But here’s more detail:

It’s supposed to be, as empirically proven by their own discussion board, website, rules, constant arguments on the subject…a ROLEPLAYING mud.

So…I made a female character.  Because I liked the character idea.  Not to seduce some poor unsuspecting male into MUDsex.  Evalyn, based on Evelyn from ‘The Mummy’. 

I watched the flippin movie like 6 times in 3 days just to get EVERY mannerism down:  how she smiles, WHEN she smiles, how she talks, what words she uses, what words she avoids, how she walks, how she sits, how she talks to herself…EVERYTHING.  Why?  Cuz I like to ROLEPLAY well on a ROLEPLAYING mud.

So I’m playing the female character, not once saying “Hi. I’m a female player.”  Why?  Because it’s a ROLEPLAYING mud, not a play-your-own-sex MUD.

In fact, nowhere (I looked) in the: helpfiles, website, discussion board, all going back OVER A DECADE does it ever once, in any way, explicitly or implicitly say (or suggest) that you should play your own gender.

Ok, so I roleplay Evie AS Evie.  Cuz, you know…ROLEPLAY.  And I meet this other character…let’s call him Mr. I. 

(Although his real name is this: Iancu Oash, Lord of a Noble House, the stocky, spade-bearded man, tiny penis (that last one is pure conjecture))…

…Played by someone who’s been playing Armageddon for TEN YEARS…so…you’d expect they’d know how to/want to ROLEPLAY. And they’d know the rules about NOT USING OOC KNOWLEDGE IC.  Huh?

And there’s HOURS and HOURS and HOURS of roleplay, eventually, between myself and Mr. I.  EVERY time he sees me, he seeks a way to RP…and vice versa, cuz that’s…IN CHARACTER (see “ROLEPLAY”) since our CHARACTERS really like each other/work closely together.

He says how much he adores me, how wonderful I am, how in 20 years he’s never blah blah blah but with me blah blah blah, how he very much (in slightly subtle terms) wants to sleep with me, how he wants to take care of me forever, how he wants me to never touch another man, how he’s “willing to go as slow as I need” (Puppy translation: I wanna fck you so bad that I’ll wait for the MudSex until you’re good and ready, just PLEASE don’t fck anyone else cuz I’m like, sensitive!).  I mean, he ASKED me to be his concubine.  FLAT OUT.

Then, after he finds out PLAYER is male (because he ASKED ME PERSONALLY to request access to a board which ASKED ME to give my GDB name, which SAYS my gender…not like I said “haha I’m a guy!”), I send him two messages.  Both to the effect of:  I realize that now that you know player is male, you may feel uncomfortable with certain aspects of roleplay, I would be HAPPY to change (WITHIN REASON) as long as it’s IC if you are uncomfortable, please write back I just want to keep playing…all very polite, respectful…respecting PLAYER as a person.

And what do I get?  No response, even though he got my message (at least the first one the same day…)

And CHARACTER suddenly, for no adequately explored reason, goes from “COMPLETE DEVOTION” to “casual business relationship”???.  NO in character reason…at least, that’s what he suggested in his (eventual) reply.

*After I spend HOURS rearranging his barracks with him gone for male-playing-female avoidance reasons…”Let’s let the newb do the grunt work before we ditch her/him”*

Ummm…this is one of our VETERANS, Armageddon?

I mean, I’m not saying that anyone’s homophobic, but let me quote Kurt Cobain:

“I am not gay.  But I wish I were, just to piss off homophobes.”

A ten-year-vet NEWB.  SAD.

Oh, on a side note:

Orin, who appeared as soon as I logged on (Day two, A.I. (After Iancu)) and seemed to be trying to annoy ummm…my CHARACTER…and who was, out of four applicants, the only one selected to join Iancu’s House):
Date Player Registered: December 15, 2002

Player Of Iancu:
Date Registered: December 19, 2002

WELL GOLLY GEE WHAT A CO-IN-KEE-DUNK!

“Why, that’s the exact amount I just gave Mr. Scroggins!”
“Well ain’t that a coincidunce!”

“All I want is what your MUD claims to be: IC handled IC.  If he doesn’t like it, and thinks it’s “unfair” to have to RP with a male player…well, to quote one of Armageddon’s rules…tough.  Live
with it or not.”

“I mean, I’d say just ask him.  Ask him if we RPd very intimate scenes, he told me a secret that would get him killed, he offered to buy me anything I wanted, he said “You are my Aide and Concubine”…and if he’s slimy enough to lie, I guess I get screwed.  Because he did all those things, and now he’s trying to say “well, I actually wasn’t even sure what role she would have…”.  Because he found out I’m male.  OOC info, used IC.  It’s as simple as that.”

“It’s about the fact that he told me he would radically alter his IC roleplay based on OOC information.”

Sad.

I’d like to point out, any opinions expressed are all my SUBJECTIVE OPINI ONS, for purposes of CRITICAL ANALYSIS.  I COULD be wrong…I mean…yeah…but I COULD.
