[OT] Tale As Old As Time

[accalia]

u and i are right next to each other on the keyboard....

which makes me wonder if that's actually ever been used successfully as a pickup line...

[accalia]

Topic avoidance alert! ;-P

https://what.thedailywtf.com/uid/1727">@cloak15 you want morden to call siegfried out on that or shall Julie?

[yamikuronue]

whyyyyy do I keep clicking on the Fat Girl thread... each time I get about 5-10 posts further down before quitting again. I think it's the draw of blakeyrat being a decent human being >.>

[accalia]

I know.... i'm wondering if there's a struck nerve that's breaking through the persona or if there really is a genuinely nice person behind the grouchy exterior.....

i havent muted that thread yet but i wait till i'm at home and can reach for the grain alcohol brain bleach if needed before reading it. https://what.thedailywtf.com/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji-one/static/images/1f609.png" class="not-responsive emoji emoji-parsed" data-set-id="emoji-one" data-emoji-id="wink" alt=";-)" title=";-)" />

You were still responding at the point I've reached on masochistic attempt number three. So I can't tell you if it's gotten any better or not.

At our best we're the kind of community where we don't give a crap what else you do in life, so long as you don't write bad code, and while we'll skewer the code, we won't cross into personal bullshit. At our worse we're hate-filled and cruel to everyone for no reason. I think Blakeyrat fits the former spirit quite well, and that's the feel that drew me here... but a certain someone with an Edgeworth avatar is definitely in the latter camp.

it hasn't. if you're not reading it because you have skin in the fight i'd say just mute it and move on.

it is fun wathcing the two biggest flamers in the forum fight though. https://what.thedailywtf.com/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji-one/static/images/1f609.png" class="not-responsive emoji emoji-parsed" data-set-id="emoji-one" data-emoji-id="wink" alt=";-)" title=";-)" />

Yeah, I personally feel pretty strongly about body size issues, which is why I went out of my way to praise Blakey for posting it and then bounced the minute criticism started rolling in >.>

QFFT

and i really don't mind the meanness. it's the utter conviction that it is his goddess given right, nay duty, to be as rude and mean as possible to everyone around him that i mind.

I can understand that. I'm lucky that i have as large a frame as i do, because at ~260-280lb i'm definetly on the overweight side of things.

trying to lose weight but..... caaaaake.

I actually have the candy jars on my desk (i've shared the pictures of those before) because i worked out that i eat less candy when it's like right there and i can have it if i want it, than if it's somewhere else on the office floor and i have to get up to get it.

weird, no?

That would be the classic diet-binge cycle, discussed at length on Fuck It Diet and by Isobel Foxen Duke in her video series Stop Fighting Food: http://thefuckitdiet.com/2014/09/16/there-is-a-way-to-stop-fighting-food/" rel="nofollow">http://thefuckitdiet.com/2014/09/16/there-is-a-way-to-stop-fighting-food/

I added both those and a few other blogs to my reader as part of my recovery from ED-thinking >.>

I should maybe not play DanganRonpa while RPing, it makes my characters seem like killers https://what.thedailywtf.com/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji-one/static/images/1f606.png" class="not-responsive emoji emoji-parsed" data-set-id="emoji-one" data-emoji-id="laughing" alt="XD" title="XD" />

speaking of.....

what did we end up doing with Echo's leg. that wound needed more than just bandages, and no he doesn't regenerate that fast.

did we offscreen suture or cauterize it?

Oh yeah, another good resource: Gwyneth Olwyn, a specialist on eating disorders.Part two of her systemic literature study on obesity came out today: http://www.youreatopia.com/blog/2015/2/26/systematic-review-of-weight-gain-correlates-in-literature-pa.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.youreatopia.com/blog/2015/2/26/systematic-review-of-weight-gain-correlates-in-literature-pa.html
