I've had a lot of people get angry at me for expressing sadness or emotional instability in my life, so yes, I do tend to expect people to react negatively.

There's also multiple people who have expressed upset that I get attention, and pin it on my being a woman.  So, you know.

Those people are wrong.

It's obviously because you're a math witch that rides giant eagles.

You know that thing where you write a start writing a post, then change your mind and go back to browsing, then decide you still want to write that post, then half way through change your mind again?
I swear I have been going back and forth for fifteen minutes now. This is what I ended up posting.


 :(

Pnx

Yeah, This...

Ok... so...

Sweetie, you're interesting, intelligent, and you have a lot of forum credit. Forums are credit based societies, in a lot of other forums people are weighed based on their post count, or the number of stars next to their name or something. We don't do that here, instead we weigh people more based on how interesting people have made themselves and how familiar we are with them, and respond to them based on that and the impression they've given.

You have a lot of credit by being interesting, and intelligent, and having a strong presence. You also post a lot of things in this thread that make me go "d'awww", which is why I, personally, tend to give you so much attention.
You're a pretty popular person, and there's honestly nothing wrong with that. Although it tends to be an awkward subject for some people, since a lot of people tend to value themselves very directly based on their popularity, but that's kind of silly and brattish.

Personally I'd be rather sad if you stopped posting here, I like hearing you whine.
...
Although I'm not precisely sure why.

Do that salt thing. x3
It's painful enough for something like bread to touch it. Salt will hurt the living fuck out of it :(

You get attention because:
1: you are one of the more active members of the community.
2: you have a great deal of textual charisma, believe it or not.
3: you earn respect.

Somewhere after 4: There is the whole thing where people confuse the people named V?ctor for each other.

Your gender is somewhere far, far after that for everyone but a handful of weirdos.

Completely totally unrelated to this forum: Overzealous MLP fans who make connections and references at every little thing. It was dunny at first but after a while it gets old. MLP is fine, just don't stuff it into every aspect of your life.

I think it's somewhere earlier in this thread.  Apparently it helps after the initial pain, or something.

I believe its the same principal as capsicum, a brief intense pain deadens the nerves for a much longer period of time.

Do the vinegar thing. I find apple cider vinegar to be drinkable, and just as, if not more effective than salt.
