Title: Relationships are hard....
Post by: shorthair on May 07, 2007, 03:15:30 pm
"...It's like a full time job, and we should treat it like one. If your boyfriend or girlfriend wants to leave you, they should give you two weeks' notice. There should be severance pay. The day before they leave you, they should have to find you a temp."


Nope. Nope. People just make them hard.

I only go to movies when my girlfriend takes me out (we used to live together and she paid for everything, as well as going out every weekend, and gave me a truck to drive and a cell to use, but I like the house a different way, and don't necessarily want people in it, so I figured it best for me to live alone - but she comes down to see me every couple/few weeks), and only buy things if I need something

Well, as usual, ya all have ideas in your head that can't be reversed, not that I would try, anyway.  You can't change or help people, you can only aid them if they ask. Perhaps, one of these days, some of you will start asking questions before your penis gets in the way.

 :angry: ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- Glaine, I feel the need to break my quote-fu and address this. I have absolutely nothing against shorthair. He is weird and many times totally incoherent, but he never said anything that made me mad in any way. I am just having a little fun, and this time it just happens to involve quoting the hell out of shorthair. It seems to be easier and a little more fun due to the massive amount of ludicrous stuff that he has posted. Just a little fun being had. Speaking of which...

<smooch>

Now, see, I could jump all ova yo ass on this cos to me this would be a no-brainer. But, why would I do that?

Yeah, what Glaine said, and it's just a tad antisocial, not to mention freaking me out.  I can just imagine you guys poring over shorthair's posts, your little brains formulating what posts can be best taken out of context to make him look homosexual.

KenToad, I have no idea why you are taking this so seriously. Antisocial? It is a figgin' joke. Nobody is trying to make anybody look gay here. It is just funny. I don't think anyone will read through this thread and say, "---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- that shorthair just might be gay, those guys are piecing the puzzle together." Come on. That is just stupid. Lighten up.

Also, at the top of the page you will see a nifty search function. So, instead of "pouring" through shorthairs post, I just type in a keyword and type his name in the "by user" box. It is really easy. Give it a shot.

I have a firm grip on things here. Maybe you should check yours? I am not sure if the kids at school used to bully you by quoting you out of context, but I promise everything is going to be ok.


While this notion might seem at odds with the spirit of this site and forum, I don't think so. Given such capacity, more might be involved in the developement of things, particularly their own, and perhaps even be more artistically active.

Be emotionally independent and you won't care. Then, someone may (or may not) come into your life and that could be great. But who cares, either way?

I would be willing to bet that shorthair has been having a good time with this thread -- he may post incoherent gibberish and quote incorrectly in his replies, but he apparently has a sense of humour.

And this thread WAS funny (even Chad's stuff!) ... right up until the fun police decided to impose their own incorrect assumptions regarding motivation on everybody else.

Pot. Kettle.Black.

I'd rather you just didn't comment and force me to point out that YOU didn't need to comment in a negative mannor for no reason.

It's one thing to object, it's another thing to object while committing the very offense you claim to be objecting to (Section 141.6 - Being Mean).

As a public service message to those who would post about their dating life on an arcade board -- go read the trainwreck that is the mind-numbing thread that Noice started on KLOV.

shmokes (and cheffo, or just cheffo, if the former was joking) : no, false dichotomy is a sort of negative version of complex question. Here, each of us just stated (perhaps speculated) something.

Uh, shorty, I was applauding the explosive and spectacular display of quote-fu ... I didn't say dich about dichotomies.

I kept returning to this thread hoping that shorthair would explain his first post, although I respect his decision to ignore you 'tards. 
I guessed his girlfriend dumped him and he wanted to complain about it.

Chad, I remember when I first joined this forum that I thought you were schizophrenic.  You seemed to argue just for the sake of it and your humor was randomly violent.  I kept reassuring myself that it was just the Internet and Chad is really probably a very nice guy.

Now I think you're totally cool.

 :laugh2:

Doesn't that actually make KenToad schizophrenic?


Dich about dichotomies...

I am REALLY late to respond (no desk job during the spring/summer) but back when this thread was funny.






I posted the Jackson pic with the sole intent of making shorthair look gay.

Ya, I thought it was funny. I mean, I agree with you Ken in that they really could be better spending their time, but it's theirs. As for elucidating on my answer, no one asked. So: while this little saying I posted is cute an funny, I think it underlies a true issue with people. They're inherently lonely. Further, I don't think it has to be so difficult and arduous. Boundaries. (or, in cheeky fashion: BOUNDARIES - NOT BORDERS.)

This, coming from a guy whose posts in the non-arcade forums on an arcade board read like yodese ?

We *ALL* could be spending our time better.

This is just more fun.

No one asked???  That was my first post!!!  And the reason I asked was because you've already explained your theory of relationships to me.  Of course a relationship isn't going to be difficult if a person confines it to tight boundaries.  Assuming your theory about lonely people is correct, such a relationship isn't going to make them any less lonely in the first place, so what's the point?

So let me get this straight - you guys are mad because I may have led to a derailment of this thread which you guys originally derailed?

Which by the by wasn't my intent - I did after all say that I still found this stuff modestly funny. I was partly just trying to give shorthair something for his thread and couldn't help commenting on you guys. Thank Zeus you guys didn't blow things out of proportion....o wait...

And yeah, I said a few dates a year - not every few years. You know whats even sadder? I've got friends who I get more dates than.

Quote from: shorthair
Be emotionally independent and you won't care. Then, someone may (or may not) come into your life and that could be great. But who cares, either way?
Definately agree and I am, but I'm also sensative and take rejection a little personal cuz I used to get stood up a lot. Don't start on telling me I need to get over this, in some strange way I like being sensitive. It's part of my personality, part of why I'm the original nice guy. I'm not changing that, though I can also accept that nice guys finish last and I might not finish at all  :laugh:  :laugh: .

Typically I could care less about dating anyways (which means I try even less, which means even less dating). The only things worse is people who think they are worthless, because no one wants to hang around with a joy kill. Which means they are unhappy because they are alone and will probably remain alone because they are unhappy. Glad I don't have that prob. Too bad I've got the problem of talking too much and giving everyone way too much fodder for to shoot my face off with.

My, my, where to begin?

Glaine- Nobody got mad at you derailing the derailed thread. I explained that we were joking. KenToad decided to be an ass because he was quoted out of context unmercifully by bullies as a child. KenToad was then an ass because he was quoted out of context unmercifully by bullies as a child. We got mad at that.

KenToad- You are a turd.

Sally-  :laugh2: :laugh2: :laugh2: :laugh2: :laugh2: :laugh2: I will find a new quote. Thanks.  :laugh2: :laugh2: :laugh2: :laugh2: :laugh2:

JackTucky- ur momz

shorthair- This is good. It's a start, but there are a few simple things that you need to keep in mind here. Well, I guess just one thing. You can only clip from the ends of the quotes. No cutting stuff out in the middle, and no adding stuff. That's cheating. You added that period on the end. A little rough, but I'll give you credit for it this time.

Hell na, dude. I've seen some stepping over of them rules. I think I was totally within bounds as I didn't add any words. And you're not giving me credit for my first quote in the thread - which, I think, is actual, but I just typed it in thinking it probly was accurate.

Glaine: tough bein a Glaine...or, toof baen ah Glaen? Sensitivity can be defined differently. I'm very sensitive. And I'm very sympathetic - at times. But, and I just figured this out, I'm not empathetic. That's just a distraction and drain of energy. I actually used to discourage people, particularly females, from this kind of behavior. You know, condition them to be more funxional. Now I just let people be whatever, though I do comment an stuff at times. If they like what they see in me and think it's useful, they'll incorporate it.

However, sensitivity doesn't equate to getting bent over rejection. They simply aren't related. Taking anything personally is just emotional drain. Not saying I don't do it...but I don't do it in many, let alone your average person's, ways. Say I did something which I thought was pretty decent, even remarkable. To me, it's not a reflection of my ability, but that something neat could be created. Who cares who did it. So, say, someone demeaning it or me through deamining it: just not possible, cos I'm not concerned with my ego. I'm just interested in what can be done.

Chris: no you didn't. If you asked anything, however indirectly, it wasn't of me.

Sure he did, he just made the mistake of using your words and those have an uncanny ability to obscure intent.

Come on, this is shorthair we're talking about ... you are expecting anything he posts to make sense ?

EDIT: To explain my 'Good one!' comment -- he used to mangle my name that way (when he was tranq, as well as with the shorthair account) and it's nice to see him paying that attention to someone else.

horseboy, it was just a cheesy attempt at compiling poor into horseboy. Soon, other, very possibly visual/graphic-bases languages, will allow this and far more complex forms of connotation to be clearly presented.

cheffo: I never mangled your name. I was indicating what consonant sound I use in the ch of your name.

It would if you actually read what I said in those cases. I'm not above making perceptual errors in thing I read, and have read here, but I either catch them or acknowledge them. Some of you do, too. Some of you don't with regard to things I say.
