automated sliding doors
its set in the future
also he's wearing sorta heavy boots and walking on hardwood floor thats the sound that he was trying to avoid
but the apartment is empty so its a moot point

oh so the "briefly" was from him not wanting his briefs to be showing, and therefore wearing his baggy shorts?
???

I didn't understand why "briefly" was used and so I went off on a tangentially related tangent about getting through doors quietly.

Anyway like a week since a proper swigftti? Shame:

Bardquest is an acquired taste, like Brie.

Truly, though, when you go to look at it again, you'll find yourself swayed by the emotion of nostalgia. Why did the king imprison so many gay people if he himself was gay? Why couldn't they simply steal more cods? Are cods really an allegory for gods? Who was Harold? Where were the dragons?
On the other hand, it's gotten to the point where I nostalgise for Bard Quest simply because it's shorter than all the other comics put together.
Actually no I'm reversing that assertion. Bard Quest was a really interesting world that I wish Hussie had explored more.

I always fit into my own little social group where I could temporarily hang out with anyone I wanted to if I wanted to (even the 'hood' stoner students were fun once you got to know them), but most of the time I basically hung out with no one but maybe one or two core friends.

[megalovanianUmbra]

Of the two thousand or so people at my school, there are maybe twenty that I can actually call my friends, and then maybe five that are true friends. I mostly hang out with my lunch table, who are all Homestucks. They're also all girls, so that's a bonus.

Mm, same here. I sit with the pot head students during lunch. (There is no such thing as hood where I live.)

The only people I can't stand are the sassy bitches and generally annoying people. I have no problem with nerds inherently (being one myself), it's just that most of them are really exceptionally annoying and/or immature.

[Fish]

Man tumblr doesn't seem to understand conventional quadrant symbols.
What's up with that????

My school was shitty and meh and it had cliques and I was alone.
High school is a good experience for some people, but not for me.
Then again I'm not doing much better in college, so . . .

[P_equals_NP]

'Hood' pothead students are completely different from regular ones. I can promise you. (Though I dunno how to describe them without sounding really discriminatory to something.)

I agree though, some 'nerds' can be really overbearing with their interests and have no sense of self-consciousness.

Here in college I don't have any friends I hang out with, just acquaintances who I know a little better than I know other people. I just sort of do my classes and then do my homework. It's a quiet life.

[Prin Pardus]

Guys guys I think we should call the Dolarosa
The Dollarosa
Rightrightright?

Or can we talk about Ruff1o again because that is what I enjoy talking about

[Doom Zero]

fish why've you always got to talk about people in terms of popularity

I feel like I'm in one of them american high school movies

I can't really say much about american high school movies, because they're completely awful, but

Sometimes, I stop and wonder... If there are so many shows on TV that cast the main character as an underdog... What do the popular kids think when they watch those shows? Like, they certainly don't think "Hey, I can relate to that guy being down and out. There have been so many times in my life where I haven't had many friends, or where I've been mocked." Yes, okay, so maybe in an odd case or two, a popular kid might actually have been bullied before, or not had many friends, sure. For this hypothetical scenario, we're not talking about those guys. What the fuck do popular kids think when they watch shows staring characters who are unpopular?

Wait, whoops, I just realized a key point that I hadn't considered yet. Popular people don't watch those shows because they're not Jersey Shore they don't appeal to their interests.

Anyway I have come to the conclusion that PNP is so popular that he's at the level of popularfity what when he responds to you you just HAVE to respond to him back even though he responds to people all the time.

People don't respond to P=NP because he's popular. They respond because that's the polite thing to do. "Oh hey, somebody replied to my post, commenting on an opinion I expressed and adding to it. I won't respond to them."

[P_equals_NP]

Popular people still have problems and they can still get it, but usually the way they associate with it is different and maybe not things we would actually consider problems. I'm sure popular people are acutely aware of how shallow their friends can be and can at least dislike people who are being overtly aggressive and annoying, and in general while maybe they cant associate with the problems of the protagonist, they can associate with not liking the antagonist. If that makes sense. Nobody has a perfect life.

[Kíeros]

No what I'm pretty sure I did the dates and stuff rightly this time?

Yes, I know. That's why I was weeping at it's beauty.

I have no problem with nerds inherently (being one myself), it's just that most of them are really exceptionally annoying and/or immature.

I personally find it peaceful while sitting with them. During our discussion classes, our whole class is silent, so it's a nice contrast to the loud lunchroom.

I think we went with Sassyrosa
I can't remember who started that (probably MW)

I wonder if Dirk and Jane will actually have A1 trolls to mess with them
they don't seem to have a way to access the dreambubbles at this current point in time, they're both still alive on both sides so its not like they're going to be in the dreambubbles anytime soon

Sassyrosa came from MW and then I decided to enforce it by using it as soon as someone talks about A1 Dolorosa. I think.

Dirk could possibly get access to the dreambubbles if he use the fenestrated plane that GCat transported into his house.

Oh, and hello everybody.

I know
But I don't like it :c

They had better get patron trolls! Jane can swoon over the SumMANer, that would be cool, and Dirk could have Darkleer or someone creepy.

[Arson'sASport]

I'm back! Even though I never told you i left.
So, school? Mine's really nice, I guess. Lots of smart people so it's okay, but most are just getting into puberty, while I've already had a good dose so...lots of moods in here. My friends got this charisma that would, hypothetically, count her as a 'popular' person, but we all stay in respective groups really. All my friends are quite close, the ones I hang out with everyday.
Tommorow is feild day, and I am most likely to have a B for the whole term. In gym, I mean.

[Candor]

I went to high school in a small town, so I can't really give the most accurate of pictures. Everybody knew everybody and broke down into three or four groups that don't all easily translate into what people think of as the "standard high-school cliques": Awkward people, less awkward nerd/gamer/jock/stoner hybrids (What is an individual in this group? Pick two, mix them together.), jock/hick hybrids, and those women who didn't fall in with the other three groups. And, often enough, people from different groups just hung there out of habit and had no real problem talking to each other.

Of course, now that I go to college, I talk to even fewer people. Because I'm conversationally awkward most of the time.

... This is me pretending to smile. YEAAAAAAAAH! fuuuuuuuuck I need to get out more.

As for what will likely happen in the next upderp, I doubt that it's a scene change. The last pesterlog ended with something that isn't an obvious cue for a switch. <---- Trying to be on topic.

DORKLEER! Called it unless someone else already did but first time I've seen it! 'Course I did misss some discussions.

[P_equals_NP]

It doesn't role off the tung as wall as I'd like it too.

And I dunno I feel like the windows are related to the void and that he might just end up getting lost. I feel like only Roxy will be able to correctly abuse the windows.

Why did I remove parts of your quote? Why? Bluh.

I'm back! Even though I never told you i left.

Silently leaving and then returning is the best.

BECAUSE MAYBE YOU NEVER LEFT AT ALL. (I do this sometimes when I work really late.)

[Ace of Dark-Hearts]

Okay, I DEFINITELY started Sassyrosa.

Although at the time I called her Big Beautiful Black Woman Dolorosa.

[recalcitrantIre]

Dirk could possibly get access to the dreambubbles if he use the fenestrated plane that GCat transported into his house.

I think Roxy can only access dreambubbles in the void between windows because she's a Void player

Dirk would just pop through to the other side of the window, which if I remember rightly leads to the Skaianet laboratory under Roxy's house

Oh, and hello everybody.

I can't imagine him using it anytime soon, with the drones attacking and all that. Hussie probably has something planned for it though.

[Prin Pardus]

But if she's Dollarosa
She can be a stripper

Mmm, Dorkleer is passable.

I can't decide whether I like Coolscar or Duelscarf more. Let's just go with Coolscarf.

But, see, that's where A1 Darkleer intervenes. He's a Void player, so why couldn't he interact with the void? He can keep Dirk from getting lost.
And the window could get unplugged again!

Okay, I DEFINITELY started Sassyrosa.

Although at the time I called her Big Beautiful Black Woman Dolorosa.

...That's a clear difference.

[Ace of Dark-Hearts]

...That's a clear difference.

Pshhhhh, the spirit in which the idea sprung was the same

No but seriously I was thinking Sassyrosa when I thought of that

I guess great minds think alike????????

yes

[P_equals_NP]

But, see, that's where A1 Darkleer intervenes. He's a Void player, so why couldn't he interact with the void? He can keep Dirk from getting lost.

So basically it's just Darkleer doing stuff instead. Booooo.

Wait.


Dirkleer.

I AM EMPEROR.

[recalcitrantIre]

Dirk's not the Void player though, so he won't see the travel through the void and therefore he'll just pop up on the other side like nothing happened

and since apparently the void is the Furthest Ring, there's no time difference on Earth's side when Roxy jumps the windows so no matter how much time she spends there, there's no significant difference Earth-side

bluh I need to be less tired so I can explain this better
