[Tiruin]

So this happened.
In summary, since I'm in Baguio City, we've...encountered much disaster--mudslides, falling boulders, electricity cut offs to certain areas in the city, collapsed roofs of certain buildings (ie Our school library had 80% of its inner roof caved in, causing a deluge of water onto our books ;_;). . .

And why I'm happy is because of the quick recovery time. Local city departments scrambling to quickly fix and repair fallen electric posts, medical staff aiding and helping the wounded, neighbors and friends helping the community (ie A tree fell on our house...and is happily leaning right outside my window on the roof, and we're getting it off.)

I'm happy that recovery is being done; unhappy for those who died during the time. I'm happy for the resilience and community spirit.

As a forum aside--I'm happy that others are picking up for me in the games where I've 'disappeared for a week' from o_o
Thanks so much you peoples

Glad you're not dead!

Glad you're not dead!

I'm glad for that too.

We all are, I think.

If Tiruin was dead, who'd dispense empathy? Deadly, deadly empathy.

Everyone else.
There's a ton of people who view a thread and empathize, but not speak.

* Tiruin isn't deadly though.

E: Found out that I copied the link twice--fixed the links [and the correct one detailing what just happened that talks about the typhoon]

Spoiler: A storm is approaching (click to show/hide)

Took a picture of an approaching band of clouds yesterday. Apparently it's from hurricane Patricia, despite me being in New York.

I know how you feel.


I apparently sing well. At least, people keep telling me so. I assume they're right, since although my primary benchmark would label me as 'not even close' it's also not a particularly easy context to sing in. At least, people keep telling me so.

Yah, but you're pretty much the only person on here who actively behaves like a decent human being all of the time rather than slipping by on the technicality of "they didn't say anything, so we don't know that they were thinking mean things."

Ahem, only person on here with a massive reputation for actively etcetcetc. Lots of people on here are nice, oddly enough.

Not that Tiru isn't. She's just not the only one, for which I at least am grateful. A forum with one nice person on it would suck.

[Flying Dice]

This is possibly the least appropriate topic to start an argument over, Arx.

I never claimed that other people on here weren't nice people, but in all but a handful of cases I can recall them being rude at some point. Additionally: not being a nasty malicious shitposter doesn't equate to nice, at least not by my standards. Exhibiting a basic standard of common decency isn't remarkable or extraordinary. There's a difference between being a standup person on occasion and being constantly considerate and kind. Good fucking god. :V

[Arx]

Not trying to start an argument, just trying to point out that there are a number of people on this forum who have never been anything but kind.

[GiglameshDespair]

Yeah, I gotta admit, that comment went a little beyond the pale, FD.
