@ Kaxbe
I don't know why, but you give me the impression that you are the biggest asshole on earth, and I mean the asshole that is one on purpose, not for no reason. I could be right about that, I could not be who knows. You just seem like the asshole type.

Aren't all assholes assholes for a reason?

Not all.

Kaxbe, you seem like a cool dude a lot of the time. But you can also be incredibly boring sometimes. There is a reason I turned off your re-tweets. You walk this weird fine line of being really self confident, and being self deprecating/self destructive. I can't really describe it accurately. But suffice it to say, I don't hate you. I just wish you'd be more interesting and less confusing.

If that even makes sense.

Both.

I used to talk like this when I didn't really mean something but felt like saying it for sake of being facetious. But here, that is interpreted as parts of a post that aren't even applicable. So I had to stick to my "--/shot" method so people wouldn't /really/ misinterpret my posts... xD;;

Of course, I guess in general that can be an irritating habit to some people, so I can see where you get the from. ;;

Well, to be honest, it doesn't bother me that much. I just find it annoying when you do it A LOT, but it's not so often.

Are we learning things from this, or are we just attacking people? Should switch it up and follow it up with something you like or appreciate about the person.

Fuck, I've learned a lot. I'm trying to limit my retweets on twitter and trying to figure out how to be more interesting.

I can see why it appeared like that, but I promise that is not the reason I have acted differently. I'm not going to sit here and say there aren't times I look back, think about that argument, and get annoyed, but with consistent effort I manage to mostly put it behind me. I am definitely not acting any differently toward you (outwardly) because of it. You could ask any of the people that I normally talk to in the IRC and I'm sure they would be pretty quick to say that I have acted differently toward them as well, whether I have a clear reason to or not. I can say with confidence that it is personal problems on my end and they are not directly correlated with the forums - and are certainly the fault of no one but myself! But I'm getting off topic now.

I could be mistaken in thinking this is a smart thing to admit, but I've never been a good liar - one of my greatest weaknesses as a human. The apology wasn't entirely honest. The only part that was truly sincere was the part about regretting ever participating in it and the fact that I was indeed partly to blame. I'm sure this is much to the disagreement of quite a few people, but I cannot accept that I was not right, and not because of some foolish pride or stubbornness, but because I legitimately believe majority of what I said - even now. I didn't say things because I can't admit to being wrong, I didn't say things because of sheer anger, and I didn't say things because I am self-conscious about my writing; I said what I said because I honestly believed my stance was correct, and as I said before, I still do.

I should also point out that you're completely right; I was somewhat forced into it. Despite how many times I've been called passive aggressive (for some reason ), I actually didn't act much differently at all to either you or suitcase in the forums or the IRC, yet it was completely impossible to have any reasonable conversation at all. Everything from minor things, to my broken keychain, to that situation with Mettlebird. It seemed that no matter what, it always ended up with me being wrong, stupid, or both, and mostly for no particular reason. Quite frankly, it didn't leave the best impression on me. The argument itself had seemed immature, petty, even somewhat diabolical at times, then after seeing that, I was able to leave that thread only to be met with hostility everywhere else that you and Suit were.

I should point out that despite how annoying that was, it wasn't the biggest reason why I actually did apologize, though. And once again, I could be gravely mistaken for thinking this is intelligent to admit, but the reason I did it was because I felt bad and regretted it a lot. I would occasionally stumble upon a post you would make and, possibly without your knowledge, you would say something about your life or your depression or your self-esteem problems or you being self-conscious or paranoid... Ect. I would always feel bad when I read them, and then I started to consider something: how much were the things I was saying and doing adding on to this? Were they doing anything? Were they doing a lot? If they were doing something, did YOU even realize they were affecting you? I had never seen you act quite so hostile toward a person. I had never seen you practice such dedication to be deliberately offensive or to be an irritant. If I had made you go that far, I must have really have offended you. That was when I truly started to regret everything. I may have been, and might still be completely wrong about that assumption - I can't prove it - but I decided that it was better to play it safe rather than risk being sorry, and I found it would be for the best either way.

For the longest time I had justified my brutal honesty with the defense I was simply pointing out people's flaws so they could fix them - which was what I wanted done to me - but I didn't realize I wasn't helping anything, and I was simply throwing back everything that made you human back in your face. I wasn't helping anything at all, and I was at fault for even allowing that argument to happen. It was a lack of judgment on my part; I let my anger get the best of me. I should have known it would serve no purpose and that proving Suit wrong wouldn't accomplish anything productive other than making me feel good for the wrong reasons.

I hope that saying this cleared up the mystery surrounding the apology. I didn't apologize because I was wrong or because I overreacted or because Suitcase was right about anything; I apologized because I contributed, I was a dick, and I am sorry if I hurt you or anyone in the process.

@Kaxbe

Sometimes I feel like you're a bit of tool. Like you just sort of do what is popular or funny at the time, not really concerning yourself with the important specifics.

I wouldn't necessarily say that it's an attack, unless someone just said "you're a dick" without backing it up, y'know? I mean, if someone offers constructive, non-inflammatory comments towards what they dislike about a person then, yeah.

I guess you could say something like "don't get me wrong, you're cool, just that you have this wrong with you," but that would start to sound like a filler.

Maybe I'll make the counterpart to this topic (after checking if it exists or not)--"What do you appreciate about the poster above you?" That way we get to see both sides of what people think of us, I guess. 8D

EDIT: It doesn't look like the topic exists yet. Assuming there are no objections to making it then I'll do it in a few hours, but for now I gotta go.

It kind of annoys me that you didn't say anything about Meowth. I didn't read that hulk of a post he made, but it's just asking for a "I dislike your wall of text" response. And it never sits well with me when the point of the thread is overlooked.

Also, I'm 90% sure that there's a "say something nice about the person above you" thread laying around somewhere. I like that one better than this since I can usually come up with things that I like about people, whereas it's hard to dislike most of you, Lux included.

It wasn't even aimed at him. Why would it bother him?

If I were posting directly under you, I would have felt inclined to read it, and been mildly annoyed by how long it would take to read. Maybe that's just me, but it was also partly sarcastic as a way of saying, "I'm sure you can think of something." I have nothing against your wall of text, I was just using it as a quick example.

This thread makes me feel like a hateful douche.

This post has been edited by Boringamus: 11 November 2011 - 11:22 PM

It really annoys me how you seem to lack personality when you actually post on the forums. Judging off your profile, you seem like a fun person, but you don't say anything notable on the forums from what I've seen.

Sorry, maybe I haven't seen enough of your posts??

This is very small, but...I can't tell if your avatar is a man or a woman!

You often put periods between your letters and it's already growing to be really annoying.

Your judging others for their speech typing impediments is not very nice.

Assumed I was being judgmental when I wasn't. Does it look like I called you an idiot?

By the way, if you can't take honesty, I have no idea why you're even in this topic.

This post has been edited by Toffee: 12 November 2011 - 09:32 PM

You're usually alright but you've been annoyed over some pretty tedious shit today.

Both Glygas and Toffee have been pretty whiny in this topic admittedly, though Glygas especially because picking at an avatar to complain about? Did you really not have anything to say and had to pick at that? Because if so, you shouldn't be posting!!!!!! I can see why Toffee would find what she pointed out pet peeves, but yeah.

PS Jerk I am saddened and annoyed it seems you let people do bad things to you or you let yourself live in this existence of being upset and that brings you to drink and AAAAAA i just want to punch your ex and all your exes okay

and i hope you're doing better, and hopefully moving on. (Unless she's decided to take you back since you've last talked about it)

You seem really emotional sometimes, it can be hard to handle. Like if you're offended by someone's opinion, from what I've seen, you take it almost personally and exaggerate how ridiculous you think they are. I'm also kinda disappointed you don't like me, because you seem pretty cool, and I can respect what you do. I may end up going into an art business with a loved one and I thought it was really lucky of me to find a couple with a fairly successful thing going, who also don't take shit. I'd hate to have to be a kiss ass to get somewhere, I'm too obnoxious to be complimentary.

I think there's a well-enough difference between being "honest" and being really antagonistic and backhanded. It's something I wish Souppy could get better at as well.

You kind of scare me... It's not that I dislike you so much as I'm afraid that if I do something wrong I'll be hit with a withering blast of insults or harsh words. Because I've seen the way you act towards people you disagree with--so I feel like I have to be extra careful around you. ;__;

Again, not that I dislike you! It's more of an irrational fear more than anything, I guess...

From what I've seen you give off that weeaboo vibe. Plus that :shot: :brick'd;*does an action* stuff is really annoying to me, but I'm biased against RP stuff. I don't wanna talk about it...

I dislike that the more of your posts I read, the less funny you are. At first I thought you were hilarious, but your schtick gets old. Meh, might just be me.

I DONT LIKE THAT YOU ARE ILLITERATE AND/ OR CANNOT BOTHER TO READ A POST

I don't like that you clearly have plenty of interesting stuff to say, but you insist on being unnecesarily dickish all the time just for the sake of it.
Don't hate you man, it just kind of irritates me.

I find you somewhat irritating in that you'll make one, often irrelevant, post, and then fuck off if someone quizzes you on it. Intentional or not, it bugs me.

Eh, I like anime and manga but I don't, like, cosplay or go "omg kawaii desu! ^_~" or anything like that. But I can see where you'd get that idea. As a matter of fact, real weaboos irritate me to hell and back.

As for that, well, that's unfortunately a quality that would take forever to get rid of. xD;;

It may just be me, but I find it hard a lot of the time trying to determine whether you're joking or being serious.

Sometimes that "unlimited swag" persona you go about with gets annoying, as if you're a wigger. And that's just sad, in my opinion.

THOUGHT YOU WERE BELLBOY FOR A SECOND THERE. OOPS.

Sometimes your sense of humor is juvenile at best and it gets really annoying. However, this may just be me being a dull dick who has to over-analyse everything.

Well, you know what? You're a faggot.

Doesn't like Dentists. ;.;

Is it that difficult to make an actual thought-out post for this stupid thread? I wanted to say something about Meowth, but then you show up with your utterly retarded 'lol u don't liek dentists' bullshit. A lot of people don't like dentists because of the massive amounts of pain that the visits usually are associated with. Drilling holes into what is essentially sensitive bone or just flat-out ripping your teeth out really hurts, you know?

It's people like you that make otherwise fun topics like this annoying. Someone makes a well thought-out post that doesn't consist of one piece of shit line, but you go ahead and totally usurp them by being a twat. Fuck you.

You also like football; I really cannot stand sports and I do not comprehend how people can find them entertaining at all. It is a bunch of under-achievers throwing a ball back and forth to compensate for their lack of any sort of academic intelligence. They are also overpaid when they contribute nothing substantial to society. It irks me how kids grow up and have dreams of becoming a football player or basketball player just because it's so easy to earn money in such a career path.

Also, next person skip me since I'm not actually saying anything about Susan here. Unless they really want to say something, in which case, I suppose you could do both.

Nothing is stopping you, go right ahead.

Yes, I see a Dentist as well. Dentists wouldn’t have to rip teeth out if people knew which end of the toothbrush was the business end.

It’s people like me that make you appreciate fun topics that people like me don’t post at. My apologies for being yet another mouse-scroll away of real posters. Carpel Tunnel is a growing problem and I’d hate to contribute to that.

Quote

I was legitimately concerned about Meowth’s negativity towards Dentists. Twatever.

I agree with you on most parts here. Growing up to be an athlete isn’t a healthy nor realistic dream. “Under-achievers” probably depends on if you mean academically or physically. People who grow up in a scummy section 8 lifestyle might have to bank on doing well in athletics, but I guess that isn’t something worth recognizing when you think about all the NFL athletes who commit crimes. Hard to shake your roots, eh? I think you are just reaching to have this as a reason for disliking someone though. You could have left it as “Twat,” and would have given the same meaning.

Thank you for your input. I will consider these character flaws as I finish the rest of this ale off.

Purin is dumb as always and I am pretending to be Meowth so that Susan can comment on him

Hello guys I am meowth

Piss piss piss

I used to be afraid of you way back when but now we're bros. However, that doesn't mean I am blind to the fact that you can be mildly annoying at times.

One of your biggest problems is yeah, you take things seriously. When you said that oddguy made you so upset I literally slapped my hand to my face. He's not worth the trouble and yet you take his pathetic opinion so seriously, that is one of the biggest things I dislike about you.

If you want me to be perfectly honest I cannot find any other reasons that you might annoy me, it is only really just this and, I don't know, the fact you can be incredibly overemotional at times. I will comment that as a friend I feel somewhat distant from you, and instead I have a stronger connection to your husband, despite how we rarely talk anymore, which I wish to remedy.

You have your moments when you are annoying but I cannot remember any of them off the top of my head, so the only real problem I will address is how you overreact/how overemotional you are.

@Jerk/Taeshi- Haha yeah, I noticed that myself, actually. That's why I try to avoid the forum when I'm not in a good mood.

@Susan- Most of the time you're okay and you definitely don't seem like a bad person, but sometimes I feel you overreact too much, although your reply to Purin was understandable. Anyway, there are times when your insults/rants are funny but for the other times it's just sort of annoying. I try to do try avoid being annoyed because I understand you have personal problems, but I do think you could cool down just a little bit!!

This post has been edited by Toffee: 15 November 2011 - 12:27 AM

Yeah look at me posting under you. You knew this would happen. Or you probably didn't. OH WELL.

There's nothing I dislike about you. Since I, y'know... I appreciate all parts of you. But I do dislike some of the things you do.

Flaws? Well it's not like anything we haven't talked in another setting about but, again, you're unrealistically harsh on yourself sometimes. :< Of course, you realize oftentimes that's not how you really feel, but it still hurts you nonetheless to say things like that. D:

Since I really don't know you on a better scale, there really isn't much to dislike about you. Asides from the fact that you confuse me with your words and can be somewhat of a grammar nazi.

You may want to get into arguments less that seem to run in a circle, like I've seen you do before.

some advice I guess? I'm not good at these things

I sort of get this attention whore vibe from you. And not in the typical outwards "HEY, EVERYONE, LOOK AT ME!" Think less attention, and more whore.

You were always flirting with these two dudes (and I think some others to a lesser extent) and derailing Recess threads in the process. It was pointless and annoying.

Looking back, I could careless, and even then I didn't care much, but it needed to be said.

This post has been edited by Meowth: 15 November 2011 - 12:42 AM

You can get pretty emotional at times, but me being still somewhat new I really do not know that much about you.

You seem to get moody at times, or at least impatient with people. I guess I can't say I dislike this so much as it's a flaw to most people. (And I'm thinking of Vaporotem in particular when I think of the impatience)

And now I'll try to post compliments alongside.

You're incredibly easy to get along with and you also seem to have a soft side.

AND TOFFEE FOR YOU YOU'RE AMAZING AND ALL THE OTHER THINGS I'VE SAID

This is hypocritical of me, but I recognize it as a negative and would like to stop myself.

I think back to our conversation earlier - you seem very afraid of people saying negative things about you. Somehow I'd like to find a balance between being afraid and being a jerk. Do you feel that way as well?

It's not hypocritical to see the same flaw in others so long as you acknowledge it. Or maybe it is. It doesn't matter--the flaw is still valid.

And yes, I feel that way. But that's because I'm so afraid of being perceived as mean or assertive--I'm determined to be nice, so I just end up being passive and easy to walk over, sometimes.

It does get in the way, sometimes...

Yes, this is how I feel exactly.

You're too nice. I get the feeling that you're far more romantic than you are pragmatic, and for some reason that really annoys me. Like you always search for the best in people even when there is no good to be found. That you expect the best of humanity when we are a shitty species. Or I could be confusing you with Smash, I think...

You both are so much alike, or forgettable to the point I cannot distinguish you.
