Mabinogi Scouting + More (Short) Random Tidbits
15 years ago
General
Do any of you guys play Mabinogi, by any chance? Specifically the Tarlach server? If so, feel free to shoot me a note or something in-game. I've been looking for more people to chat/play with there and I find that there don't seem to be that many furries on that server. XDDD
Ummm... Also, I thought I'd post some more short thoughts/tidbits of information, just for the sake of having shit to write about in a journal. Is that okay with everyone? XD
Okay, let's see...
1.) I abhor direct confrontation with people. If you say something I find particularly hurtful/upsetting in regards to me in my presence, I'm likely to bite my tongue at the moment or keep my retorts "tasteful" because I don't feel like 'throwing down' with people. I've only ever gotten into -one- physical altercation with someone in my life, beat the shit out of him, and promised I'd never do that again. As gratifying as it was to make people scared of messing with me at the time, the idea of people thinking of me as a violent person was something I'd rather avoid.
This does not, however, mean that I won't talk shit about you and the situation when I'm around trustworthy company. I find that venting is much more therapeutic.
2.) I develop crushes on people (male and female) way too easily. That's the understatement of the year, I think. Mind you, it's rarely ever based on physical attraction, as odd as that sounds. I'm very drawn to fun and odd personalities, so if I think someone's goofy, personable or whatever, there's a high likelihood that I'll end up swooning over them to some degree. I've actually managed to develop crushes on people I don't even know that well based on my perception of their personality, gathered from reading their journals/comics and/or talking to their friends. It's silly and I'm well-aware of that, so I try to never actively hit on any of them. XD
3.) I have what I would call a 'vicious wit' and find that trait incredibly attractive in people (but not when it reaches the point of being just cruel, mean-spirited rudeness). One of the sexiest things in the world to me is the willingness to 'make the joke' without regard to consequence. In my personal opinion, there is no such thing as "too soon" for a crack at something and I love it when people are willing to put on a smirk and take the shot, no matter cheap it might be. No matter what the subject is, be it domestic abuse, disease, or anything in between, I highly enjoy seeing people brushing aside political correctness and choosing the path of humor. I feel bad that people get a lot of shit for being that way (myself included, at times) because there's nothing wrong with it.
To put it simply, if you made a Haiti or Corey Haim joke in front of me right now, I'd probably blow you... Okay, well, not necessarily, but you get my point... I think.
4.) No matter how physically attractive you are, if you're a douchebag twat-waffle, you're an ugly motherfucker. I think this one speaks for itself a little bit. I've known some guys who, physically, were fairly attractive, but had such shitty, insufferable personalities that I COULD NOT find them to be attractive in any way, shape, or form. Quite honestly, I think it's a waste when really awful people have really sexy features because I'll never get to enjoy it. :c
5.) Regardless of how many times your mom/dad told you so, nobody ever makes fun of anyone because "they're jealous." Don't get me wrong; I've been there before. I was the uber-smart, teacher's pet kid in elementary school who got picked on just about every day. I even had a kid put a tack in my chair in third grade. Despite all of that, I know for a fact that I was NOT picked on because my classmates were jealous... and neither were you (meant in a general sense, of course). When people talk shit about someone, it's not because they're jealous/envious of them; they do it because they're given something to work with.
That's not to say that someone taking a crack at someone doesn't also harbor feelings of jealousy, but rather that they're not taking the jabs based on it. It's bad enough that people like me buy into that bullshit claim at times, but, in a way, it's worse when really attractive/successful people do. It's as if they've got their heads stuffed so far up their own asses that the idea that there might actually be something about them that people don't like is completely and utterly inconceivable.
Unless a joke clearly centers around envy (i.e. "I hate that giant cunt because she has big tits and nice hair"), it's never based on jealousy. You (again, meant generally) have provided someone with something to make fun of you for and they are generating the joke. That's way; it's not because they secretly wish to be you and cut themselves at night because they aren't.
I know I spent a bit of time on that particular point, but I can't help it. I just find it very amusing that there are people who actually buy into that after the age of, like, eight.
6.) Anyone who claims that they never judge people is full of shit. I'm not saying that everyone who sees an old man at a playground assumes that he should be on To Catch a Predator, but rather that we all have had to make a judgment call in regards to people at some point in our lives, most often for reasons of safety. You know someone who says they never judge people is full of it because... well... they're still alive. We all judge to some degree, some more so than others, and there's nothing shameful about that.
I think that should do for now. X3

Nah. I just get bored. This helps to vent it.
