We now return to our regularly scheduled PA Forums. Please let me (Hahnsoo1) know if something isn't working. The Holiday Forum will remain up until January 10, 2025.

Should is nearly always too strong a word... for everything.
And it may be that I am mashing yours and Nocturnes language together, especially with the "should" but just because someone could take it someway doesn't mean I should roll over (like a puppy! :P) and let them slap my nose with the paper, eh?
I think you just like creating something that can be seen with the naked eye! :P
I don't understand what you are trying to do.
I am saying that what I think you are saying also applies to you, so you have maybe undone yourself.
[Edit]
Also, I am apparently trying to confuse you with my poor sentence structure after long parenthetical asides. Sorry about that (my second paragraph especially).
Oh, and I accidentally included your text in my reply because I started typing before the last line... my bad.
If you think I undid myself you aren't getting what I'm saying mate. I'm not trying to win something.
You are saying that now, to defend your initial reading of what I originally said. However, what you are saying now (this quoted reply) is not what you were saying before.
What you are saying now applies to what you originally said in reply to what I originally said. Your original reply insisted (claimed, etc.) that what I said was mean to Oboro. However, for you to try to convince anyone that your reading of what I originally said would be futile, according to what you said here:
[Edit]
Also, just because people have become lazy in reading does not mean I should accept their lazy reading. (In general, not necessarily you...) They may want to jump the shark but I need not let them do so freely.
That's what she said!
This sentence does not compute, please try again. I'm not actually understanding your point I'm not sure why.
When you say that for me to attempt to tell someone to see what I wrote the same way I do would be futile, does that not apply to you attempting to tell me (or anyone) to see what I wrote the same way you see it?
You say:
When you tell me to see what you wrote your way, it is futile.
I say:
When you tell me to see what I wrote the way you see it, it is futile.
Is that more clear?
I went to watch some tv because chat was boring and you two are still at it.

When LaOs tells Morninglord to read what LaOs wrote the way LaOs sees it, that is a futile exercise.

Are those not the same situations?
[Edit]
Rather, equally futile, from how I've read what Morninglord said here:
That is the nature of [Chat].
Especially at 6 in the goddamned morning... it's only even 8am EST... what do you expect? :P
Are you making Iron Man suits again?
The best part is, it is [Chat]! Talk about whatever you want to talk about.
Hell, people that are involved in other conversations can even converse with you about things that interest you, if you prompt them!
Only the Mk. I, he says.
To be honest it doesn't concern me greatly. Im just rather surprised that it is still going on.
But anyway. How exactly do you plan to get a forge in your back yard ELM? And will it violate you lease or something?
I imagine it would be like a fire or BBQ pit... and if he doesn't blow up the neighbourhood or cause smokey fires, it will largely go unnoticed I'd wager.
No because you have the training I'm talking about.
edit: WAIT A MINUTE
I see what you are saying. Let me create a better reply.
On the plus side, the Jewellery I had made for her has apparently won me lots of points both with her and her family. Her, as she likes it, and her family as they were concerned the English have no taste.
How are things progressing with the Bulgarian young lady?
Do I?
:P
Well why share it publically? To make people think I am mean? To reaffirm your place as a champion of Oboro? (I'm largely just being lame to you now... sorry. This is not germaine to our initial discussion.)
[Edit]
I see your edit and will see your new reply then :P
Turns out it is hard to stay friends when you meet in the most romantic city. Who knew?
So we're doing long distance stuff. Which up until December was fine when we'd been seeing one another at least once a month, and then December came and her exams started. When her exams finish she's up her for a week, and then in February we're going skiing.
Hope she gets well, kudos on the crafted jewelery, and it absolutely sucks not having the money to see the one you want to when you want to. Oh god to I know that...
That's actually how I pictured it, to tell the truth--wheeled. Just seems right to me.
Sounds like a healthy relationship, so far as distance relationships go. Good on ya (both)!
People are very rarely constantly rational and arguments based around trapping people in webs of supposed rationality are not good arguments, to me.
So that statement is attacking what I see as the arrogance of english literature assumptions that have no basis in how people actually act.
It's got no relevance to the Oboro discussion because, well, I've been pretty damn dazed this entire conversation and forgetting half of what I said and having to read it again.
I'd prefer it really if I could just drop it and pick it up when I've had more sleep.
And now I'm off for a cream tea with the parents.
That shouldn't make me feel better because that's horrible but it does because, well, I'm horrible.
Oh, seems to me this was a response (the futile exercise thing) to my response that was actually erroneous... my mistaking of your use of literature as meaning the study rather than the actual thing when you meant decision-making as the area/study and literature as the thing (like, a collection of journal articles as "the literature").
