Let's try that again: Mambo #5... or 6... It's in there somewhere.

I normally don't mix RP with my LJ, but for the past two posts, I've made an exception: Readers, I apologize in advance. I'll get back on the ball shortly. That's a promise, by the way.

To make this short post easier to read for many people, within the noted-off section, you'll see this: [::NOT A JOKE::] so you know that I'm not being cynical or just making you laugh. If you do happen to laugh though, feel free to let me know in the comments section. If you enjoyed it, feel free to let me know equally.

Y'know . . . the funny thing about my last post is, the person it was intended for (caitsith4) believed I was joking in half of it. I suppose that could be the going theory as, well, two things give this belief credence:


School of Thought #1 - Have I ever been serious on this LJ beyond a cursory notation? Unfortunately yes, but I'm damned good at disguising it as jokes (By the way, this is a joke.)
School of Thought #2 - How could anyone be so absolutely god damned mean? And vindictive? And Jerky? . . . Quite fucking simply. [::NOT A JOKE::]

People, it's not that I enjoy being a prick (because I do, but that's just not the reason - is what I mean), it's not even that I enjoy ticking people off while callously dissing an aspect of RP that many people respect. It's that it's just not for me. Let me rephrase that so it makes a little more sense: I don't have relationships in RP; I think they're cool. Trust me, if a character of mine ends up hooking up with someone, it ain't gonna be for raunchy TS. TS . . . oh, that was cute when it first came out several, several years ago in the adult chatrooms between thirteen-year-old boys pretending to be girls and forty-five-year-old men pretending to be twenty-year-old hot-to-trot hotrod shuttle-cocks by the name of Brad, but thankfully we've progressed as a society. I used to mock TS then, and I mock it now, only now I've got a fucking army marching in back of me on the issue. [::NOT A JOKE::]

Am I without guilt in the whole 'Raunchy Fucky Sucky Text Oblivion'? Can I cast the first stone? HAH, I say. I was young once. I was a 'newbie' (I hate that corny ass word) once. Sure, I did it... all of twice. But through the whole experience, I couldn't understand why everybody else who'd done it said it was 'hot' and 'it gets you off'. I kept laughing my ass off and channel surfing to pass time. Then again, I'm an immature sum-bitch and more or less everything makes me laugh to some degree. Example: The fact that in all these years (edit: Since the last explosion), not one shuttle has blown up, just the one with the most minorities on it? That had me busting. A GUT. Hate me later, you know you were laughing too you sick little monkey. [::NOT A JOKE::]

"Ohhh, Allah! We go into space now! Yah!"
"Ohhh, Jesus. We go into space now! I wonder if you can fry fish up here..."
"Heehee. Ice cream comes in candy bars in space."
*BOOM*
"... Oh shit. - Hey! We all really DO say that word in the same language!" *much celebratory wine is consumed in the few seconds they have to live*

That was cold, I know, but I couldn't resist. Like I said, hate me later, giggle now. Onward and upward I go. Again I say, if a character of mine hooks up with somebody, it's by my rule of thumb, always going to be on my terms. The terms are simple and short. Don't piss me off, don't stalk me, don't think that I like you in real life cus I probably don't, don't run around telling everyone we're all tied up together, don't be a giggling dumbass and for the love of god, learn how to just hang out without a situation turning into hot sex every four seconds. [::NOT A JOKE::]

I was talking to my close friend, neeri just the other day (as I often do most of the time) about any ol' thing. Sometimes we talk about relationships, sometimes we talk about people, and sometimes we talk about RP. She's just one of those people I can seriously relate to on a personal and I can trust her not to make it 'too personal'. She knows my rules. I don't mix RL with IC or RL with Online. We can talk about RL at anytime, on a whim at that, but don't expect me to go taking pictures of myself in a bunny suit just because she might feel the need to want to see that. Anyway, back to topic. We were talking about relationships at the moment and how a new trend of 'Everybody wants to hump' has been developing. People don't just hang out on the couch and watch a movie anymore, no. They get through the front door and from then on it's just tit-grabbing, lip-smacking, violent pursuit of nakedness. News flash for ya: If that's all you can imagine yourself doing with the person you 'like' or are 'an item' with, then you're not serious about that relationship. You intended for that to be an Ass-Tap from the word 'Go'. Long-term means shit to you, you're just out to get your dipstick wet, or in the case of a female going right for it, you're out to get those walls waxed with a fresh coat. [::NOT A JOKE::]

Yeah, I'm being harsh. When have you ever known me not to be? I come straight or not at all. You want sugarcoat, you can go talk to somebody else. Fuck your feelings, that's just the way I gets down. An RP relationship, in my opinion, should actually consist of time spent doing things that matter (and that doesn't mean sex, as I've stated before), or doing stuff that doesn't matter that actually involves relationshippy things. While my opinion, RL, of romance is simply nothing at all (because I hate romance. It's become a vehicle for horny guys to get laid faster. Nobody takes romance seriously anymore, thus I spew it from my mouth in the words of The Good Book.) my character's opinion of it might be something wholly other. [::NOT A JOKE::]

Another topic of concern: Getting into one's character. Look, this is probably gonna break a lot of hearts but. I don't get into shit. I know, people have commented that I play my characters well, from Forte on down the line, but I tell you, I don't. Get into. A God. Damned. Thing. I'm good at faking it. I spend 90% of my life writing, I've become adept at making people think I care. Making people think I'm sincere. Fuck all that. The real me? I'm completely despondent. Without hope. Without emotion. Without care of other people's emotion. Without care of other people's anything. Not to say that I'd go out of my way to disrespect you. No, that's the one thing I do care about. Respect is paramount. But in truth I go out of my way to be completely unfeeling, shallow but absolutely observant. You learn more when people think you don't give a crap. They're that eager to prove to themselves that you do and in them proving it, you have the upper hand. It takes a lot to devote yourself to being completely absent of any and all things that make us human beyond a sense of humor, a few hobbies and a penchant for literature. It's sort of like devoting your life to God in all things, only with me, I've devoted it to the unobtrusive study of the thoughts of man. I hunger to know how people work, I don't give a shit about how I work. A character in RP is more or less a vessel for me to make my version of how any character should go work for you. Case in point: [::NOT A JOKE::]

Hybrid: Out.
