hello snowhellions
and fellow band members

one of your fearless lead guitarists coming to you live from the norfinbury amphitheater with a report and a philosophical question
relevant info first:
the houses around here were apparently built with high entropy alloys
those are metals who know how to stand the heat and take a beating
funny things is...
they don't hold up so well in a geothermal reactor

[House will send over two pictures. One is of a piece of rubble. Another is of a melted piece of rubble.]

so that piece caught fire
and then melted in my hand
which leads us to the question:
what the hell are those heat suits at the power plant made from?
because that's the only reason i didn't make like old smooth and skippy in pic #2
if you have thoughts
pls share
consequently
my tablet also melted
tastes like plastic and wires
the rubble tasted like metal before and after the test
significantly smoother after melting, tho

which brings us to our philosophical question:
what is your definition of an extrovert and an introvert?
feel free to use concrete examples
divide up your fellow band members
as you understand those terms
if you don't understand those terms
then look around at other people's definitions

an antisocial extrovert is an oxymoron
if you don't like being around people
if you avoid people because they're annoying
you're not getting energized by them

[He doesn't even really care about being in that category. It's the principle of the thing and wanting Will to be wrong.]

[phaseshifter]

Dude, you'd wither and die in five minutes without people paying attention to you. And you can engage in antisocial behaviour while still being an extrovert! That applies to 90% of people I've ever known, honestly

[rubikscomplex]

[Ugh!]

somehow
i go on over the weekends at home
that's what porn is for

[phaseshifter]

The fact that you need to distract yourself from two days of loneliness with something so highly stimulating (you know what I mean) kinda speaks volumes, dude.

[rubikscomplex]

i like being alone
i seek out being alone
regularly

[phaseshifter]

But you actively seek out human interaction all the time! You're doing it right now.
(I feel like if anyone can say that network interactions still count, it's the person who spent fifteen years alone in a bunker)

[rubikscomplex]

human interaction involves the physical presence of another human
and the internet is not real life where i'm from
the forms of communication are completely different
for instance
i can turn you off with a few buttons
and never have to deal with you again
rl
that takes a restraining order and a good door
at a minimum

[phaseshifter]

It does not!! You're interacting with me right now, even if I'm not present with you physically!
Geez you're being ridiculous
Is this because you buy into the whole "all extroverts are boorish morons durr durr" thing or are you just *this* buttpeeved that I'm not helping you prove your point to whoever you've been arguing with?

[rubikscomplex]

extroverts need people
i don't

[phaseshifter]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA

[rubikscomplex]

i reiterate
i hate you people

[phaseshifter]

Nuh-uh! You just hate that you *can't* hate us, dude.
(That's us in a very general term, referring more to people who have never stolen your drugs)

[rubikscomplex]

trust me
i'm very capable of hating all of you equally
or just not giving a crap about you
let's go with that one
it's easier

[phaseshifter]

If it was that easy, would you really care if we thought you were an extrovert or not?
Wait no sorry let me correct that
Would you really care if we thought you were *wrong* or not?
Because I'm pretty sure someone who didn't give a crap wouldn't much care about what anyone thought of him in return ♥

[rubikscomplex]

i don't care what you think

[He just cares that Will is wrong.]

another copy of the glitter text app says i can go 5 days without commenting on the network or sending pms

[phaseshifter]

Do you think I'm stupid?
I'm not agreeing to a bet like that unless you can guarantee you'll be ALIVE for all those days. Dead men make no comments.

[ YOUR REPUTATION, GREG ]

[rubikscomplex]

fine
barring unplanned anomaly attacks
i can guarantee i'll be alive for the next five days
at a minimum

[He has plans and plots, thank you.]

[phaseshifter]

Hmmmmm. And what are you offering for your end of the bet?
I only have one copy of the app left, you know. It's practically priceless.

[rubikscomplex]

you know what you want better than i know what you want
so spill

[phaseshifter]

Iunno, I'm pretty set as far as my wants go for now. Um...

 

 

No questions asked next time I bug you for a prescription, even if it's for something weird and/or obviously not for me? :|aaaaa

[rubikscomplex]

that's so tame it's lame
but deal
starting from tomorrow
i get a 5-day vacation from you assholes

[phaseshifter]

You're gonna start twitching within the first hour.

[rubikscomplex]

maybe talk to wilson next time before you make a bet with me, babe
might've saved your last copy of that app

[phaseshifter]

Dude. Even if I lose, five days of peace without you effing people off will be worth it.

[rubikscomplex]

[Wait... they're due for some new people. No! What was he thinking!? But seriously, this is a mildly annoying time frame he's doing this in.]

i wouldn't wanna steal the thunder from you kids when you go all murder night on us again, anyway
