    I can't remember it that well, I may have been lurking and it could have just been a single post that gave me a wrong impression, on the internet where it's hard to pick up specific emotions you just make do with the words and try to form an emotion based off that, so maybe I just fucked up somewhere.

    Although I don't know, is there a reason behind Isi calling you grumpy all the time?
    Because I act like a grumpy old man. Simple as that. He is perfectly justified in that.

    I remember when Drek would post in the thread every now and then, then when I browse out of the thread I see him in other places and his banned. At least once a month.

    I just post and see whether I can start a conversation I will enjoy.

    I guess it gets quite annoying for people to have to limit themselves to what topics they're allowed to discuss, which plays a big part in this thread it would seem (although there's not much need to get into a discussion about rules).

    To some degree I've forced it upon the people who have the least bit of interest in it. Half of the reason because beta keys are basically limitless, the other half because playing the game alone is infuriating. Although I guess it can be compared to solo-queuing in LoL.

    Well, RPing has died down since people moved to Skype for it. It depends how 'strong' something has to be before you consider it RP. If it doesn't take that much then God help me I've probably repelled you more times than you can count.

    Oh, alright then. I should probably get to know you better, as I should with many people from the thread.

    Oh, it's better this way, don't worry. You wouldn't want to know the horrors that I have to deal with on the Formula 1 subreddit. And hey, Alai has some surprisingly likable opinions and puts them out in a very enjoyable way, even though he's pretty much rooting for Massa's (former) greatest rival, so I'm satisfied.

    I tend to ignore RPing, because very rarely is it something I would enjoy participating in.

    I hate to break it to you, people, but "first world problems" still has the word "problems" in it, and putting it next to "third world problems" doesn't change that.

    Also, where the heck are "second world problems". Poor, ever-ignored people in the middle. (Lol.)
    I agree, they are problems. Just because they are problems that are not essential to living doesn't mean they aren't valid. And I don't think second class is real. There's just first and third.

    I agree, I hate that they try to impart their views upon me, and I hate when they automatically assume they get some special pass because they are related to me.

    My only annoyance with writing big posts is that it means that I miss others that I may wish to respond to, which results in another big post, etc.

    Anything stronger than about "light inside joke" puts me off. Nothing personal, I just...don't like it.

    That made no sense.

    Fair enough. I don't take it personally, but I seem to be part of the problem indeed. Hopefully I can show off a better side of myself though. Who knows, I may unintentionally end up making it worse.

    I'm so horribly bad at multi-tasking that it's not even funny. I'd either have to concentrate on the stream or the game.

    Oh, and goodnight Sparks.

    Adios.

    I think I should've left as soon as I replied to Alai's post. Gotta fix that.

    @Blue, on that note of relatives (esp. parents) getting a special pass, I hate when my dad hits my youngest brother. Sure, he annoys the fuck out of me a lot of the time, but he doesn't deserve that, seriously. I hate it. If I ever become a father, I will never hit my kids. It's just horrible. The worst bit is that even when it makes a very audible slapping noise, he says "Oh come on, that doesn't hurt" and "stop crying". Also, when I used to be scared of thunderstorms (because I was nearly outside during an incredibly strong one), I cried one time when lightning was striking all around our house, and he told me to stop crying, and that maybe he should buy me dresses if I was going to continue to cry. Really horrible. I mean, aside from that he's an okay man, but god I hate what he does.

    Oh, before I leave, one final excerpt.

    6:54 AM - Firo Prochainezo: I really
    6:54 AM - Firo Prochainezo: have no idea
    6:54 AM - Firo Prochainezo: what I'm watching
    6:54 AM - Firo Prochainezo: An army of michael jacksons
    6:54 AM - Firo Prochainezo: sounds legit
    6:56 AM - Firo Prochainezo: so
    6:56 AM - Firo Prochainezo: the gist of this episode
    6:56 AM - Firo Prochainezo: is Michael jackson is an alien hell bent on destorying humanity
    6:56 AM - Firo Prochainezo: and Black Dynamite's friend discovers this
    6:56 AM - Firo Prochainezo: so Michael Jackson summons his army
    6:57 AM - Firo Prochainezo: and a bunch of Michael Jackson clones and Ninjas duke it out
    6:57 AM - Firo Prochainezo: and one of the clones goes to shoot Black Dynamite while he was distracted
    6:57 AM - Firo Prochainezo: so his friend jumps in the way of the beam
    6:57 AM - Firo Prochainezo: and then the real michael jackson jumps in front of Black Dynamite's friend
    6:57 AM - Firo Prochainezo: and saves their lives
    6:57 AM - Coffer: what the fuck am I reading
    6:57 AM - Firo Prochainezo: so then Michael Jackson decides to not destroy humanity
    6:58 AM - Firo Prochainezo: and Black Dynamite suggested he put back on the cute black head (his mask, his real form looks like what he did before he died irl) and gradually change his features
    6:58 AM - Firo Prochainezo: that way people would be used to it
    6:58 AM - Firo Prochainezo: and then Michael Jackson decides that he's going to dedicate all of his time to helping the children
    6:59 AM - Firo Prochainezo: This is so ridiculous
    6:59 AM - Firo Prochainezo: but also hilarious.
    7:01 AM - Coffer: what
    7:01 AM - Coffer: the flying fuck

    I was talking about things (I don't know what) with some people in the thread, which caused me to forget I was hungry. Following that I decided to write about how I hate my dad hitting my little brother, and then I remembered that I was hungry.

    Meh.
    When I was young (probably 3-4) my Dad used to hit me, usually multiple times per day. My Mum used to work day shifts meaning she'd leave for work before I woke up and didn't come home until I was usually in bed.

    This went on for a couple of years, until I was about 6 and one day my Mum felt ill and left work early, but didn't let my Dad know beforehand. When she got home she heard me crying upstairs, he said I had just fallen down the stairs, so as a parent she came up to comfort me. That's when she saw me hiding under my quilt and upon removing it found a massive red hand mark down the side of my face.
    My Dad was a gigantic man and honestly, his hand was probably the size of my head, if not larger.

    Well, after that she instantly went downstairs, screamed at my Dad to get the hell out of the house. He didn't question it, he just got up and left and that was the end of that.

    Obviously I hate the man to death because of it, even though upon returning to Wales about 4 years ago, I wanted to meet him again, although he had cut off all contact he had with me, so whatever.
    If he had tried any of that shit around me today, I can assure that I wouldn't have stood there and taken it. It's just a shame that I couldn't fight back at that age like I could have done now, and honestly, if I ever see anyone physically harming anyone around me, I can ensure you that I won't take that shit for a second. It'll just spark the rage that I have against my Dad now.

    That's actually a good thing for me usually. Because no matter ho hungry I get, I can only eat so much at once. So it can wait if I distract myself from the hunger. Unless it's a case of not eating for like 24 hours, t the point I'm weak and dizzy.

    Y'know, when I see stuff like this, it really makes me feel kinda bad for having a relatively good life.
