Topicless thread

Ah, I enjoy doing that. It's just that on Tumblr I'm dealing with people who are going "your headcanons are stupid" to me. And when it comes to headcanons, the easiest way to piss me off is to disrespectfully disagree with my headcanon.

I don't mind, hell, I enjoy respectful disagreements when it comes to my headcanons. I like learning about other people's headcanons. Sometimes, I might discover I like someone else's headcanon more than I like my own.

Of course, when it comes to roleplaying, there must be a compromise in the light of conflicting headcanons. I understand that such conflicts are no fun in a roleplaying situation, but saying my headcanon is stupid isn't going to get me to agree with your headcanon. :/

apparently i fail at spanish despite having a columbian mother and a lot of spanish in my childhood i need to take spanish 1 in college? wtf

[Chocofreak13]

unless you took a class on it they don't count it, even if literally nothing but spanish was spoken in your childhood. why are you taking it, anyway? what are you majoring in?

also, i want to give you all advice on your problems but my mind is a blank filled with nothing but dizzy and the sweet lyrical sound of Edward Wong Hau Pepelu Tivrusky IV's voice.

except kodomo, that's a situation to just say "fuck you, i'm out", since they're obviously turning into whiny little tumblr brats like plenty of tumblers are apt to do.

[winduko]

That's exactly what I did too. I even said that I'm not going to continue with those I met on Tumblr with the exception of two people (neither of whom did anything). My friend even told me that what was said was really rude.

And yeah, I'd love to help everyone with their problems too. I can only provide what might not be helpful because I don't know what the hell I'd do.

@Winduko: I'm surprised they'd call your headcanons stupid, since Tumblr is all about headcanons (ranging from the plausible to highly speculative). Then again I've seen people with less-plausible headcanons receive hate (which is hella dumb because at the end of the day it's only a headcanon), so maybe some people take themselves little too seriously. Actually, considering it's tumblr dot com, I KNOW a lot of people take themselves and their ideas too seriously (and aren't fond of compromise either). ><

Also Cockle, sorry to hear about that. >:/

Are you feeling any better though?

[Chocofreak13]

@bells: it's hard to think the community that created Dobby x Sorting Hat could take themselves catholic seriously, and then they do.

[winduko]

I hate it when I spend an hour on my phone trying to type a really fucking long post, and then my phone browser decides to crash. >_>

[NejinOniwa]

This is why I don't tumblr. It's like 4chan with only underage tripfags that take themselves SERIOUSLY.

[Nichi]

@Duko: Been there before :\

Urgh. My feet are still sore from the past several days, and I still have to be at work in a few hours, and I lost my only day off from both jobs this week because of that moron at Pizza Hut ;_;
(I'm seriously thinking of turning in my 2 weeks today, so after I leave for good, I should have a few days to rest and then I can begin studying for class)

[Cockleshell]

I play the role of detached blogger: I have (quite a few) followers, but I don't solicit opinions or advice from them. I only talk to 2 or 3 people I know on there. Don't anger the hivemind, don't take sides. That's how you win tumblr.

Speaking of which, wtf is up with the raiding atm?

Speaking of which, wtf is up with the raiding atm?

You mean the 4chan raid on tumblr?

This is gonna make me sound like the biggest shitlord ever but i'm an avid reader of /r/tumblrinaction. Granted I don't agree with all (or even most) of the views presented there but there are more than enough nuggets of SJW hilarity to make it worth sticking around. To say nothing of the mockery of hardline anti-SJWs, tumblr fascists and nazis (I don't mean nazi-as-in-a-general-extremist, I mean literal Third-Reich-loving-sociopath-Nazis), racists, red pill MRAs, and other sundry internet wackos. Because of this, I've managed to keep myself fairly apprised of the recent shitstorm that's gone down on both Tumblr and 4chan.

A few weeks back, SOMEBODY opened a tumblr and started posting about a July 4th raid on 4chan, retaliation for 4chan being a big ol' hive of creepy fedora'd neckbeards. This was bait meant to rile Tumblr SJWs into "attacking" 4chan. We suspect it was either /pol/ or /b/, but the jury is still out on this one. Anyway, the troll was successful and when the time rolled around, SJWs flooded into /b/ posting about ... whatever it is SJWs talk about, and /b/ naturally found this hilarious. In retaliation, /b/ users started spamming various SJW AND popular fandom tags with all matter of /b/ nastiness, including gore, extreme pornography and the like. This cause Tumblr to go into a (not-unjustified) uproar, and many tumblr users are now threatening to "hack" 4chan, report them to the FBI, shut down their site, etc.

[Odin Yggdrasil]

Except if 4chan could actually be defeated by such hostilities as hacking or FBI seizure, it would have happened a very long time ago when /b/ raided Fox News- back when the internet was young and nobody knew what 4chan even was.

I'm enjoying my pocorn hearing the war stories of this. Whoever did this managed to pit a band of trolls against a band of zealots, and the resulting conflict ranges from downright hilarious to I don't want to live on this planet anymore.

[Cockleshell]

it's fun to just sit and watch what happens but apparently a tumblr person went nuts and killed themselves over what some 4chan trolols did/said to them so there's that

[Chocofreak13]

i heard differently the other day, but only about how this got started. appearantly some tumblr'ers started posting on 4chan about "how much words can hurt" after a random 4channer bullied a tumblr'er so much they killed themself. this was all hearsay and may be a pormeanteau of both bella and cockle's reports, but i don't follow tumblr OR 4chan enough to be apprised on either.

in unrelated news: i'm going off-grid for a week, dunno when i'll get internet again (WCS is saturday). will see you all soon, and there are two new posts over at the blog if anyone wants to read them. if shit hits the fan (one of us dies or something), pent and bells (and stew? and possibly nej? and maybe cockle) have my cell number, which is the only way i'm reachable. don't abuse my minutes, though, so emergencies only~

@pent: hope it works out. ;^;

@bells: be online more so pent has someone to vent to.
