I think I look funny. Does that make me an elf?

r-monoxide askes a very important question in otherkin.

I seem to be running into a lot of pictures, discussion, etc about physiological traits that otherkin have that are related to their 'kin type. I myself have pointed ears, and I notice that there are quite a few others with pointed ears. I am also aware that there are body mod practitioners who will make your

Ahhh otherkin. All other attempts at fail pale into comparison to their continued effort. No matter how much racism wank, boob-nazi posts or meta stupid is posted here, the otherkin win the prize without even fucking trying. Them and the goddamn furries and soulbonders.
At least they make me more positive about where I am in my life; I may be a sad lonely bastard, but I ain't that fucked up.

[angry_aussie]

Maybe they could have a battle royale for the prize, then the we could just shoot the winner, riddin the world of their fail forever.

[gayahithwen]

I believe the point of a battle royal is that the winner kills the loser. Deathmatch, if you will.

[eald]

And if they don't all kill each other within the given time limit, we nuke them. ^_^

What are soul bonders?

[angry_aussie]

They think they have fictional characters living in their head. It's probably a lot more complicated than that, but I care not for the fine ditails of their batshit craziness. There are a few communities here.

[angry_aussie]

*details* perhaps.

I found a good definition, that shows the batshit craziness of it all.

Soulbonding is like personalities in your minds. It's like you have the personalities of these characters (fictional or real...most of mine are fictional tho) in your mind. Sometimes the character will comment on what's going on in your life, the situation that you're in, etc. (yes, this sounds like dissociative personality disorder or some such thing...IT'S NOT!) Mine actually talk to each other, and I can talk to them too. Heh, I bet I sound crazy now, but really, most people who soulbond are perfectly normal people! I mean, I soulbond...well, I'm not a very good example, but... Well actually, most people do soulbond but they aren't aware of it, or they don't know what it is or something. There's always a reason for soulbonding a character: either you can relate to them, or maybe they're a certain side of your personality, or maybe they're just a character you like a lot. You don't really do it on purpose (I've tried that, and it doesn't work), it just

You know, when I have chracters move into my head, I take as a signal that it's time to write another short story or something, not that they are a part of my personality.

[angry_aussie]

No, you see that would make sense. you wouldn't fit in at all with the soul bonders.

[yenesi]

You'd think, huh? Jeez. I don't know if it's people taking it WAY to seriously, or just in need of psychological/mental help.

[boobalah]

Ah, parlez vous francais? J'aime cette citation, c'est de Madame du Barry, no?

And yes, soulbonders sound like they need a field trip to the local psych ward.

[yenesi]

Haha, I speak French, but I wasn't referencing her. Jeez, short for Jesus (force of habit, I guess, not using the Lord's name in vain). How are the two related though?

[boobalah]

Oh, I know you weren't referencing her, it just showed up as your name in my comment notification and I got all squeeish. It's totally unrealted. I'm a French history nut. Pardonnez-moi.
