Emo if you read any of Randy's comics you should have known better. This all your fault for acting immature. Seriously, I'm not saying your are a dumbass only that you acted in a manner that was l like poking a rabid wolverine with a stick while playing stop the pups on said wolverines offspring.
If you don't want to be made fun of maybe you shouldn’t send Randy emails......At least don't send Randy emails of the aforementioned caliber. Randy has about as much patience for silly and stupid emails as a Parent teacher's association has for the Pedophile of the month club. Sorry to rag on you so hard but dude just mark it off as a learning experience and move on. There's no way you can defend your actions or that anyone cares other than move on and admit you did something silly. The damage is done move along. The more you try to defend yourself, the more immature you look. Just move on, you F***ed up. It's okay, just forget it or your going to make the problem worse. |

Dude, I'm okay. If I was afraid of being ragged on by people over the internet, I would've stopped posting here.
And I really, really don't care how "immature I look." I'm just trying to make a point. In high school, I'd put posters around the buildlings at night with random sayings on them, some of them philosophical, and some of them silly, one of which is the first line of my sig. One friend of mine told me that if people didn't understand my philosophy, it was worthless. I responded by saying that if people didn't understand my philosophy, they were worthless. It's the same thing here. |

That's valid if backed up.
And what's the point that you disagree with on the journal? |

Arguing over whether or not a given minor character in a minor webcomic is an accurate portrayal of you counts ;) ~J |

An opinion is always valid until proven otherwise. And even then, it is valid to the person who holds the opinion. |

Oh, yeah... But that's different; it's a personal attack to be compared to Mike. |

why should i even bother answering that? even if i manage to guess what whacky-ass 'point' you were trying to make with that inanity, you'll just say "no, it was something else, lol ur dumb!" the truth is, i have long since given up trying to figure out why you do anything you do. some of it is for shock value, i think; some of it is genuine stupidery; and some of it is for shock value attempting to cover up genuine stupidery. differentiating between them is not a profitable use of my time.
understand, i'm not singling you out. i could lambast other users similarly. but they don't ask for it. |

indeed. a large number of the posts emo makes are designed, it seems to me, to make sure any discussion of their content is mostly about emo himself. FanGirl's posts are often similar, except they direct attention at emo rather than herself. i'm honestly not 100% convinced that FanGirl isn't just emo posting under a different name.

I've been ~70% convinced since ?she started posting, but haven't had time or energy to ponder it further.

No, they aren't. They're put there so that we can discuss the awesomeness of mechashiva and power armor. I thought that the all-caps thread title "WE NEED POWER ARMOR" would be okay, since I thought exhuberance would be fine on a fanboy forum. It wasn't until people started going "Lol too powerful" that it started being about me.
Why thank you; that mean's I'm quite eloquent. But really, would I post about not wanting to kill a corp kid? I am far too bloodthirsty to think of that. And the syntaxes and writing styles are too fucking different for us to be the same person. |

it's not what you post, it's how you post it. and as far as 'syntaxes and writing styles'... no they're not.

They aren't?
I read over parts of her diary, and the reason I write like her when I explain stuff is because it's, well, expository writing. I'm sure she's never posted all caps, and I would never admit that I'm simply the product of a superior educational system rather than being awesomely smart. :D |

Stop feeding the self absorbed troll with multiple personalities.
Emo: Read "How to win friends and influence people". Then come back and post. |

How are those supposed to make people genuine friends? All that does is make you a pleasant idiot like everybody else. It's boring, and it would make me boring. "Let the other person feel that the idea is his or hers?" "Use their name a lot?" No, I don't want to treat anybody I would call a friend like that.
Oh, and I read the summaries; whenever the author comes out and says he's making 5 points, his book can be summarized by 5 sentences. |

Allcaps is never okay. At best it makes you look like a hyperactive 10 year old screaming "look at this! look at this!" It's not endearing, or clever, or funny.
Your friend is correct. If you cannot sufficiently get you point across, if people are either too confused or too annoyed by the presentation to properly comprehend the content, then the effort is indeed worthless. You might have the most profound thing in the universe to say, but it dosen't matter if nobody can understand you. Or wants to understand you. It is not the onus of the reader to jump through hoops to understand a message. It is on the writer's onus to make his or her message clear and understandable. If this is not achieved the writer can blame nobody but himself. -karma |

You're right; I lapsed most egregiously and must atone for my sins. I have forever shattered the orderly progression of this board with that thread.

I've seen far too many people use the principles in that book to replace anything resembling a personality they might have had. It seems to have the creepy sterility of a Scientology pamphlet.
It's not more tolerable to me. :P |

*sigh*
The biggest sign of your insecurity(edit:immaturity?), emo, is that you always rise to the bait. If you truly don't care what others think of you, then stop responding to the criticisms. Just keep your threads on topic & respond only to constructive criticism and honest discourse. That will raise your perceived maturity level faster than anything else I can think of. I think you are probably a very enthusiastic, creative guy irl. I've known many like you over the years and most were my friends. Admittedly, I had to take breaks from these friends from time to time, but still.... For the record, I do not believe that Fan Girl is an emo alt. Too much forethought goes into her posts.... |

I pride myself on my lack of forethought!
And your advice is valid. I also have to realize that many people's criticisms aren't really centered around logic; I guess I'll have to deal with that by being above their concerns about penis size. |
