Blamespace's comment on that video made me laugh.

Also does anyone want to sum? Too tired and lazy to read the whole thread.

Also Steam = http://steamcommunity.com/id/RobotNinjaHornets

For some reason I don't think I turn up on the search. Which is weird. Either that or my friend fails at typing.

Steam is wonky atm for profiles D:

Yeaaaaaah, they're full of shit.

At least you didn't develop PTSD and social phobia over it. I still can't form normal relationships with people because of it.

I have PSTD for other things, but yeah, I am too nice not to be social. High school taught me not to care what people say, and the internets taught me that being nice, even to assholes, is the best way to trip them up, hee.

People really called you ugly? Teenagers are the worst.

Yep, you can confirm it with Marrec when he gets back, we had some serious movie drama go down occasionally, and I was lucky my little brother was taller than most of the football team.

Will you go to Prom with me?

Ha, first time I've ever actually been asked!

That's the point I ended up reaching. Started getting teased in elementary school, ran all of the way through high school, and for a lot of that, I didn't know how to deal with it—so it was really rough. Then, at some point in high school, I was just kind of like, "If I'm going to catch hell no matter what I do or who am I, then I might as well just be whoever I want to be."

Even when you say that, it's still hard to always feel that way. People can still get to you, words can still hurt. You can still find yourself afraid to face the world, even if what you're most afraid of might be more in your head than in reality. Even still, getting to that point that you reached is what you have to do to survive—and if you can reach that point, sometimes you even come out of things better in the end. Obviously, you'd never want to put yourself in the position of receiving treatment like that from others—but it can make you a stronger, and better, person sometimes.

Even if I might not know you that well, I know that you never deserved what you received. So, I'm really sorry that that happened to you, because it shouldn't have.

Thanks for this post. You didn't deserve it either. No one does. And yes, it still hurts, especially when the whole school joins in, but when you stop reacting, the taunting tends to drop off, and you can realize they were only trying to provoke a reaction.

You too, huh?

/hug

WTF. You were/are fucking gorgeous. Haters gonna hate be damned.

Thanks heh.

Well, what the hell.


What the hell again.

Okay in light of what has transpired following this post I take those first two "what the hells" back so as to fully allocate all available "what-the-hell"-funding sources to this.

Yeah heh. Kids gunna hate.


Wall of quote over!

As for the erm...famous thread, I for one am glad I tend to choose very ungoogleable things as user names.

My girlfriend got approved on here like the day after I mentioned something the other day about wishing she was here for RPJ.

She's hesitant to post ITT tho.

[mollipen]

I have PSTD for other things, but yeah, I am too nice not to be social. High school taught me not to care what people say, and the internets taught me that being nice, even to assholes, is the best way to trip them up, hee.

This was the part that I was never able to get over from all of that. Not that I'm anti-social, or unable to be nice to people, but I'm never able to feel like I have a place in the relationship. I have an ungodly hard time making friends—because I just hit an emotional wall when trying to figure out how to hold up my end of that process. I'm terrible at small talk, and I never feel like the person I'm meeting would be interested in me enough to want to be friends. I have a friend back home that can meet somebody and, five minutes later, you'd swear he's been lifelong friends with them. He's very outgoing, and funny, and he can invite somebody to go do something and—even though they've just met—it seems totally natural. I watch him do that, and I've no clue how he does it.

That mixes with another thing that ended up becoming part of my personality: I never, ever feel like I belong to any sort of group. No matter who it is or what the circumstances, I feel like I don't belong. You could have a situation where, say, there's a group specifically for redheads to get together against all of the non-redheads in the world, and I could be at that meeting, and feel like I wasn't supposed to be there and that they don't want me around. *laughs* Part of me can take it all in stride, but on the other, it's really tough. I can never feel like I'm wanted or welcome in a group, and that of course then affects my ability to make friends (because how can I make friends with people if I always feel like a third wheel).

I didn't mean to make this some big dramatic thing or anything—it's just that the conversation about what happened to you got me to thinking about that. Sometimes we really do take for granted how things that happened to us growing up shape and affect us as who we turn out to be. It's not that I like thinking of myself as a victim or wanting to blame anybody, but I also can't help but wonder how my life had been different if I had been able to act a different way as a child, or if my experiences had been better.

At the same time, I know so many people who have it far worse than I do, so on some level I have to be happy with the fact that I'm not worse off than I could be. *heh*

 

[The Anti-Monitor]

People were usually a bitch to me in school but when i went to a new high school for my last two years the people were notably better.

Also I've watched that Patch 1.8 video like six times or something. So good.

 

[ThoseDeafMutes]

Ash is banned.

Is it a perma?

No

Anyway... About the bullying stuff, thanks you guys. :'( I posted in a different thread about ~accomplishments~ on GAF and said GAF was the first place that has said anything positive about how I look. So thank you for that, even though I don't believe you haha.

I have trouble thinking I belong sometimes too, but I hide it really well. And being super nice has its disadvantages, I tend to get walked on a lot but people who aren't really friends, ya know?

Oh god this so much. Like I don't even feel like I really belong with my best friend. I don't understand D:

Welcome Chef Cooper Cat Agent.

Nailed it.

Oh shucks.

 

[Hot Coldman]

I always read "agent" in the Crackdown voice

 

[RobotNinjaHornets]

Super Cute + Twin Peaks username, yeah I knew this thread would be bad for my heart

I never understood how people could say stuff like this, I'd just feel slightly creepy.

Am I just too English? Is that what it is?

 

[icecream]

Just lock your god damn Facebook, people

It's not hard

Or don't have one at all!

 

[Seguin]

I never understood how people could say stuff like this, I'd just feel slightly creepy.

Am I just too English? Is that what it is?

yea it's totally creepy to give someone a compliment

 

[InfiniteNine]

Or don't have one at all!

I HAVE 12! What now!?

 

[hiryu64]

Could somebody summarize what happened with Ashodin for me?

 

[ThoseDeafMutes]

Could somebody summarize what happened with Ashodin for me?

For those of you just joining us...

 

[RobotNinjaHornets]

yea it's totally creepy to give someone a compliment

:c

 

[Lissar]

Or don't have one at all!

I might as well not have one, I hardly use it. But I think family and friends would worry if I deleted mine. And I've heard it can look bad when you're looking for a job if you don't have one. So, looks like I'm stuck...

You use it more than some people on my friends list.

 

[zkylon]

Yes, that's what it is. We south american folk are all kinds of gross and we never get in trouble for it

But yeah, no question about it, throwing an innocent compliment over the internets can come off the wrong way.

 

[Davedough]

Huh. Get home after an arduous commute and login to steam. No new friend requests. I see how you people are now. It's fine. Two can play at that game

 

[Ezalc]

For those of you just joining us...

What the hell? I leave for two days and this happens? Somebody tell me how it all ends besides the OP getting banned. The thread has like 50 pages or something.

I'll add you cyberDave. I'll be your friend.

 

[Lissar]

You use it more than some people on my friends list.

But in comparison with my cousin who posts 20 times or more a day...

Huh. Get home after an arduous commute and login to steam. No new friend requests. I see how you people are now. It's fine. Two can play at that game

I would love to give you another request, but you've already given me the honor of being my friend!

Speaking of which, got a request from a friend of mine on Steam. I haven't talked with her for ages, but we've known each other since we were in pre-school.

She only had 24 games though. Psh.

 

[DatDude]

He was acting really skep. He said he would give us updates, and told us that he was "to busy to respond" , even though his user history indicates he was refreshing the page every minute to look at the new comments.

 

[Hot Coldman]

Or don't have one at all!

I'm 20 and (ostensibly) have a social life

Facebook is kinda super fucking useful

 

[hiryu64]

What the hell? I leave for two days and this happens? What the hell, somebody tell me how it all ends besides the OP getting banned. The thread has like 50 pages or something.

Second. That thread's too damn long. Was he lying?

Huh. Get home after an arduous commute and login to steam. No new friend requests. I see how you people are now. It's fine. Two can play at that game

If you guys wanna add me on Steam, I'm in the GAF group. You can also just search for my username and you'll find me.

I might as well not have one, I hardly use it. But I think family and friends would worry if I deleted mine. And I've heard it can look bad when you're looking for a job if you don't have one. So, looks like I'm stuck...

Same situation as you, except I set mine to delete a week ago. I have one more week to take it back...I'm thinking maybe I shouldn't have done that, but I don't really use it.

yea it's totally creepy to give someone a compliment

I know you joke, but I actually don't compliment people or express interest in people I'm actually interested in for this reason. Maybe that's why I've never been with anybody lol

I have trouble thinking I belong sometimes too, but I hide it really well. And being super nice has its disadvantages, I tend to get walked on a lot but people who aren't really friends, ya know?

I recently got taken advantage of by two of my friends, so I'm now totally withdrawn from the world cause it's like, I thought the bullying was done and if I can't trust my own friends, who do I trust? It genuinely sucks to be me, and I wouldn't wish it on anyone else. lol

Ya know, I've never really been this open with strangers before...I feel like we're, like, bonding or something D:

 

[Unicorn]

One of my favorites .gif's ever.

 

[blame space]

what do you guys talk about in here

 

[Lissar]

One of my favorites .gif's ever.

Me too. That and:

Every. Damn. Time.

 

[jello44]

Second. That thread's too damn long. Was he lying?

Possibly.

He posted "Pics soon!" when he supposedly landed and then about an hour and a half went by and no pics were posted, all the while his profile kept saying he was "active". Then, banned.

 

[Lissar]

I didn't get the feeling he was lying, and I'm usually a good judge. I think he just wanted the attention.

But who knows, really. We certainly can't know for sure.

 

[NeOak]

One of my favorites .gif's ever.

True, but this made me chuckle:

Leeness, I hope you're not just fishing for these comments lol but you look hot in your avatar. I don't see how you were never told anything positive about your looks!

Dang that Ash thread blew up. Wish we got a conclusion but SunhiLegends made up for it!

 

[Featheredkitten]

But in comparison with my cousin who posts 20 times or more a day...

good god! That's a lot of time on facebook.

 

[Ezalc]

My favorite gifs are probably the Japan World Cup game gifs and the one with the axe commercial where the two dudes fly off all DBZ-ish like lol.

EDIT: Also damn at that thread with the whole flying to meet the chick thing. Haha oh wow, so crazy.

 

[Featheredkitten]

This is my all time favorite gif:

Leeness, I hope you're not just fishing for these comments lol but you look hot in your avatar. I don't see how you were never told anything positive about your looks!

Not fishing haha. Until GAF, I've only gotten "ugly", "yuck", "not good enough". I still get it if I put myself out there so I just don't anymore haha.

 

[Agent Cooper]

Leeness, I would date you real good.

You obviously are driving people insane with your great beauty, and they believe it's permanently opposite day. :/

 

[TemplaerDude]

The best thing about the possibility of snow in Vancouver is even though everyone knows its probably coming not a single fucking person does a damn thing to prepare. And then transit shuts down.

I'm fucking moving to Mexico.
