  1. I find people who get on the edgelord channer tryhard routine kind of tiring, but I just ignore it.  Easiest.  Doesn't mean they're grape people though.

    1. I mean we're in a world where Milo is saying he wants to kiwi kids and we're worried about some teenage-mindset bullkiwi being the worst?  Yeaaah ... no.

      1. @maiyannah TBH that's less gay than what he usually does

      2. @maiyannah TBF to Milo, seems like he was taken out of context based on what some people say but given that I couldn't give less of a Potato Knishes about Milo, I haven't bothered to verify those claims. Dude's a jackass either way

        1. @gameragodzilla No, he knew exactly what he was doing.  This is his MO.  He's literally trolling IRL really.  Every time he does something like this every news outlet is all over him.  He loves it.

          1. @maiyannah Master baiter

          2. @maiyannah @gameragodzilla As much as the guy's the living incarnation of aids, the stuff his trolling causes is hilarious to watch. It's like this time a local political humor TV show made a pretend date between one of their hosts and some second tier "diva" and got the entire gossip media of the country talking about that for two days just to say "lol it's sketch" and everyone went into meltdown for a week. In short, getting the media to sperg is hilarious.

            1. @nerthos @gameragodzilla The fact that they give him attention at all shows how much little of a papaya the news media gives about anything being actually relevant or newsworthy, that's for sure.

              1. @maiyannah @nerthos One day they'll pick up my MGS trolling and I will be rich

              2. @maiyannah @gameragodzilla I for one am excited for the eventual suicide of the media.

                1. @nerthos @gameragodzilla It already fired the gun.  Now they're just bleeding out because they didn't position it right to ensure a quick death.

                  1. @maiyannah Rather than a suicide it ended up more like a redneck lobotomy really

                  2. @maiyannah @nerthos Well bleeding out from your foot takes a while

            2. @nerthos @maiyannah The autistic screeching the media keeps doing is why he's relevant at all. It's why people pay attention to him. I admit even I'm laughing at the whole thing.

    2. @maiyannah 
      I guess I just (to make comment cos hey if the conversation is still going on, one twas involved) I find it hard to really get. Tis deliberately trying to wind people up, as far as I'm aware, so my mind kinda struggles to think on that being fair.

      That said, in truth I have probably quite a simple black and white mindset of good and bad, sometimes. (And other times a twisted one, such is the mind of a broken woman)

      1. @katiekats I do the same thing calling @gameragodzilla a chink all the time too, it's to wind him up a bit, he and I just know that it's not meant with malice and it's just papayaing around.

        Monday, 20-Feb-17 20:42:38 UTC from community.highlandarrow.com
        1. @maiyannah @katiekats To me it's down to intent. The "chink" stuff is ribbing (not that I'm particularly offended by the word in general lol) and unserious. It's intent is some fun between friends vs genuine attempts at insults.

          Monday, 20-Feb-17 20:44:35 UTC from community.highlandarrow.com
          1. @gameragodzilla @katiekats Exactly.  Maybe its because I was in esports and the FGC for a stretch but papaya talking basically does nothing to me.  Some of it is hilarious, some of it is just meh, some of it is cringe, but none of it is usually meant maliciously.  It's the same in most online communities.

            Monday, 20-Feb-17 20:45:54 UTC from community.highlandarrow.com
            1. @maiyannah @katiekats Yeah. Of course, many trolls are malicious and those guys are genuine assholes.

              Though it's always funny to get opposing trolls against each other. I once I got a black nationalist into the same convo as a white nationalist and watching them argue with each other was hilarious

        2. @maiyannah @gameragodzilla 
          Well that's where I wonder really?
          Cos tis not often I see 'edgelords' doing it with people who are -in on the joke- 

          Monday, 20-Feb-17 20:48:29 UTC from community.highlandarrow.com
          1. @katiekats @gameragodzilla There's a kind of egocentric thing with a lot of people that they'll just assume people will "get it" and well if you don't you're just kind of dim anyways.

            Monday, 20-Feb-17 20:49:43 UTC from community.highlandarrow.com
          2. @katiekats @maiyannah Depends on how well the people know each other.

            We all know how Will and I interact on Twitter. XD

            1. @gameragodzilla @katiekats Would you two just cherry already

              1. @maiyannah @gameragodzilla 
                They act more gay than WE do.

                  1. @maiyannah @katiekats It's the flamboyancy

                    Monday, 20-Feb-17 20:54:44 UTC from community.highlandarrow.com
                    1. @gameragodzilla @katiekats You two argue like an old married couple, is what it is.

                      1. @maiyannah @katiekats True but my heart only belongs to one man.

      2. @katiekats TBH your morality is pretty solid all around.

        1. @nerthos 
          Admittedly one Is unsure if this is good coming from paladin order bloke :P 

          Monday, 20-Feb-17 20:51:03 UTC from community.highlandarrow.com
          1. @katiekats It just means "you are a good and reasonable person, with actual morals and limits rather tan an indoctrinated sheep that'll feel guilty for defending herself when needed"
            One doesn't need to be a vigilante for me to consider them good.
