I feel like people tend to be really nice to me when I'm drunk. I get the perception that I just get unabashedly sincere most of the time.
I've said some incredibly nasty things to people in texts while drunk, though. I think it has a lot to do with the rift between how I think I'm coming off (like I'm confessing my soul in a reconciliatory gesture) and how I actually come off (like I'm saying a bunch of mean shit to someone).
...the rift between mean shit and gestures of reconcilitation is immense, how do you manage that?
I've spent too long thinking that other people obsess over straight, unbridled honesty to the same degree that I do, and used to operate under the very naive assumption that if I was just perfectly honest in sharing my thoughts/feelings with someone that they would necessarily feel the compulsion to turn around and do the same and it'd always result in some sort of cathartic mutual understanding.
In reality, that isn't at all how things turn out.
Yeah, but if that TV moment always worked, then all the other TV moments would work too, and we'd be in a lot of trouble.
Outside of chelle I do not have a single friend in my day to day real life.
i think the distinction between 'real life' and internet isn't generally meaningful but then i have days where i actually don't talk to anyone and i find that miserable so ... uh...
if it wasn't for The Rubberbandits I wouldn't know who Éamon de Valera was.
life's a game that you're bound to lose / like using a hammer to pound in screws
fuck up once and you break your thumb / if you're happy at all then you're god damn dumb
that's right we're on a fucked up cruise / God is dead but at least we have booze
bad things happen, no one knows why / the sun burns out and everyone dies

While most people know the difference between reality and TV fiction, there are a fair amount of cues that we take from televised examples. It wouldn't be unreasonable to have TV moments actually "work" simply because of cultural conditioning. And some TV moments could work, while others do not. Could just be a random chance thing, but I don't think that ALL TV moments could work simply because one of them does.

Thursday will be the day.
"Just uh... sitting there."
"I need that carrot."
"Need it? Or want it?"
"......I need it."
Conversation with my almost 3 year old upon seeing a stray stuffed carrot in a living room display at IKEA.
I am a sucker and we left with a stuffed carrot AND a stuffed broccoli.
"What are their names?"
*incredulous look* "Carrot and Broccoli."
here's a song that samples Aphex Twin and it's amazing
edit: both vid and song are prob nsfw
We use fuck as the most reasonable analogue these days.
