@conventrix Is that a Rarity avatar? We can't be friends any more.
-
@conventrix I disagree. She's more a high society lady than a "[sp]anhtugl ovgpu[/sp]" Rarity is generous, responsible for her actions, and actualy has a reason to do stuff.

@conventrix You just lost all my respect.

@nerthos @conventrix who are you talking about?
Friday, 20-Apr-12 02:03:44 UTC from web-
@mushi Rarity.

@nerthos I am surprised you had any to begin with.
Friday, 20-Apr-12 02:09:09 UTC from web-
@toksyuryel Why do you say?
Friday, 20-Apr-12 02:11:02 UTC from web-
@nerthos Dude rubbed me the wrong way from day one. Maybe I just have less patience.
Friday, 20-Apr-12 02:20:03 UTC from web-
@toksyuryel I'm used to deal with all kind of people. If I were to act completely elitist, and just talk with the people I like completely from the first moment, I would talk to 10% of the people. Being really elitist and arrogant, I have to either comprehend the psyches of others and find how to be able to like them or guide them in a way I like, or just resign to talk to five people for the rest of my life.
Friday, 20-Apr-12 02:24:31 UTC from web-
@nerthos We probably just have different priorities then.
Friday, 20-Apr-12 02:31:02 UTC from web-
@toksyuryel What do you mean?
Friday, 20-Apr-12 02:31:57 UTC from web-
@nerthos Not sure what I mean, really. I'm pretty out of it right now. I just feel like spending time trying to convince people to be likable is wasteful when I could instead spend that time working on solving the underlying problem that is making them so unlikable in the first place.
Friday, 20-Apr-12 02:36:30 UTC from web-
@toksyuryel Oh, I never said I make people more likable. I just mess a bit with their minds to act in a way that I don't find completely obnouxious, at least when they're talking to me. It's not hard work. What makes them like that in the first place is not something you can deal with, it's the very nature of humanity. We're a race that only works on a hierarchy. Most must be idiots, for if the vast majority were smart, then we would need an outrageous amount of geniuses to function as a society. It would be worse than it is now. Now, some of us can actually deal with the rulers. If what I explained were to become true, then it would be almost impossible to break an instituted regime, bussiness or plan made by those with power.

@nerthos I think it is something that can be dealt with you and you said it yourself- the nature of humanity. You then drifted off into a separate tangent about smart people that is unrelated to what I am talking about.
Friday, 20-Apr-12 02:47:00 UTC from web-
@toksyuryel What I was talking about with all that is that the whole thing is necessary for us to remain a society. Smart is not only having a high IQ, someone can have an IQ of 70, and still be able to make everyone like him, and get stuff that way, and that is being smart too. But the point is, you can't change the nature of the species, not without an apotheosis first.
Friday, 20-Apr-12 02:50:01 UTC from web-
@nerthos I am inclined to disagree. You can change it if you know where to look. People won't be convinced to change, not en masse anyway, that's looking in the wrong place.
Friday, 20-Apr-12 02:53:41 UTC from web-
@toksyuryel You can, as an individual, change. But that requires being born with that capability to see what's wrong, to understand it, and to have the resolution to do it. An individual can change. A species can't.
Friday, 20-Apr-12 02:55:13 UTC from web-
@nerthos We are moving towards a future where it will no longer be necessary to have been born with that capacity.
Friday, 20-Apr-12 02:59:12 UTC from web-
@toksyuryel Why do you say?
Friday, 20-Apr-12 03:00:36 UTC from web-
@nerthos As our understanding of how the brain and our genetics work increases, so too does our understanding of how to make them work the way we want them to.
Friday, 20-Apr-12 03:06:07 UTC from web-
@toksyuryel Yes. But it is not really useful to make everyone "likable"
Friday, 20-Apr-12 03:08:22 UTC from web-
@nerthos Here we are in disagreement ☺
Friday, 20-Apr-12 03:10:03 UTC from web-
@toksyuryel What profit could be in making everyone nice?
Friday, 20-Apr-12 03:10:36 UTC from web-
@nerthos A reduction in lost time and an increase in overall happiness.
Friday, 20-Apr-12 03:13:46 UTC from web-
@toksyuryel But what would be the way to convince the ones with the power to actually carry something like that to fuition to do it? We're both idealists. If it were my choice, I would make a species of almost immortal ungodly gifted individuals, reduced in number to require less resources to function. But most of us aren't. Most of us just want to make some profit, enjoy their short lives, and die.
Friday, 20-Apr-12 03:16:54 UTC from web-
@nerthos My desires are simple: I just want everyone to be plushies.
Friday, 20-Apr-12 03:18:09 UTC from web-
@toksyuryel Animate or inanimate?
-
@bitshift Animate
Friday, 20-Apr-12 03:20:06 UTC from web-
@toksyuryel In that case, I am totally down with this wish.
-
@bitshift Eeeeeeexcellent ♥

@toksyuryel That's a hilarious and impractical wish.
Friday, 20-Apr-12 03:19:28 UTC from web-
@nerthos Nonetheless I believe it possible and I aim to live my life in pursuit of that goal.

@conventrix What you said is probably one of the most ignorant things I ever heard.
Friday, 20-Apr-12 02:05:48 UTC from web -
@conventrix Probably.
