Um. Yeah. What she said.

In less vitriolic news, Lore will apparently have new comics for us every Thursday. Plus a complete archive, featuring such classics as "With Power" and "eBay Auction."

I'd write more but I'm never home, and now I need to eat so I can leave again. Maybe tomorrow.

In response to K, (she is not on my friend's list so thanks for the link).

I did ask Wed. if you and E were back together. I guess to ask you is the best, but there is that awkward thing. I apologize. I was curious because, well, you guys are cool (all 3).

I think I will go back to being ignorant of life around me except when I see you getting a frickin' wharf.

[yubbie.livejournal.com]

Weird. You mean, people were observant enough to realize you were dating someone, yet unobservant enough to not notice you'd broken up with E, quite publicly, and go around being silly buggers about it behind your backs? Sheesh.

[jazzfish]

It's. . . eh. Weird. I'm still spending a lot of time with E (side effect of living with her) and it'd been years since we were all that demonstrative in public, and K and I aren't very demonstrative in public either. So people who don't read my LJ jumped to stupid conclusions, failed to think them through, and gossipped.

I can, if I squint real hard, see where they're coming from. As you say, it doesn't change the fact that they behaved like bloody idiots.

One item and a rant

[uilos.livejournal.com]

Cross posted for maximum exposure.

Item: Tucker, put more content in a link like that. I wasn't expecting to content to be what it was and it was an unpleastant suprise of something I was rather determined not to think about today.

Rant: Thank you all for being so concerned about how you thought I was being treated that you came to me. Thank you for caring about me so much that when you thought I was being cheated on and that I was too clueless to see it myself that you came to me to let me know what was happening behind my back. Go fuck off.

You didn't get the announcement the first time, fine, I understand that some of you live in caves. I understand that some of you want information, this I can deal with. You could have come to someone involved instead of to a third party. From this I am forced to assume that you don't actually give a shit about what is happening to the people involved and are only looking for gossip fodder. Go fuck off.

Every time I think that this issue is dead and buried, some idiot brings it back up again. And I still have to hear about it third or fourth hand. Thanks for the salt in my wounds. Go fuck off.

You have a problem with me, you have a concern about me, you come to me. If I'm uncomfortable talking to you, I'll tell you so and I might even tell you why. But at this point, I'm sick of it. I'm sick of people coming to me saying that someone asked them something about something that I did. Thank you to the people that have come to me. All three or four of you. The rest of you can go find someone else to fill your idle hours. I'm out of it. Subject closed. You had your chance. You had your second chance. You blew both of them. Go fuck off.

And now the background?

[zyxwvut.livejournal.com]

For those of us who aren't around to witness what's up, can you provide
a little context?[*]

Not fishing for gossip (I'm pretty far away, and it's inefficient), just
trying to sort it out in my own head.

P.S.: * -- It will have the bonus functionality of, when you're old and
don't remember your Kolledge Days so clearly, filling yourself in, too.

Re: And now the background?

[jazzfish]

I sort of can. Z can provide corrections, or not as he sees fit.

Wednesday night was Spiel, the B-burg games club. After Spiel, Z asked me if I could kindly tell everyone that I'm dating K now, since LisaNeilPatrick all asked him if the two of us were dating and also Becca (his g/f) asked, and he's getting tired of everyone asking him about us. I shrugged and said 'Sure.' Talked to K Thursday, found out that Z'd implied rather strongly / nigh stated outright that Certain Unnamed People [whose names he refused to divulge, so that K couldn't confront them directly with their issues] had at Spiel asked him if E knew that I was cheating on her with K. Based on some previous similar bullshit, this annoyed K no end. Hence her rant.

I think that about sums it all up; feel free to ask more questions if necessary.

Re: And now the background?

[zyxwvut.livejournal.com]

What confuses me, is the "cheating on uilos" part. When did the
two of you get back together?!? I really didn't see anything about it on
either of your LJ's, that I could detect. (Although, to be fair, I
haven't gone combing through everything since Origins in both places,
with this new perceptive filtration.)

Z

P.S.: Thanks for not getting upset that I asked.

We have not in fact gotten back together.

Thanks for not getting upset that I asked.

No problem. After all, you asked me, which was totally the Right Thing to do.

I'm mostly trying to be as laid-back as possible about things. nixve and zerblinitzky are sort of mad at each other (well, it's blowing over, more or less), and uilos is rightfully mad that her "friends" aren't coming to HER with suspicions of wrongdoing, but really there's nothing for me to get upset about. So people are acting like idiots; this is hardly news. S'why I want out of here in two years.

(Not, given Certain Recent Posts, that folks are necessarily any better anywhere else in the world. Oh well.)
