ValKalAstra Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 (edited) Pet Peeve: When daring to point out a bad symbol in someone's tattoo, (all i said was that it was an unfortunate tattoo), gets you dogpiled in hateful instant messages (to clarify, not by the one with the picture) and reprimanded by group moderators to say only nice things or nothing at all. I guess that's one less photography group to participate in. Edited February 28 by ValKalAstra 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Example, "Oh my, that's an unfortunate haircut." LOL But at least you were honest! ++bonus points! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaser Zaks Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 So not sure if peeves are serious or not having seen some of these, but I'll give it a go: When I imagine a object and my brain can't stop imagining it spinning? Like I try to mentally stop it from spinning but it just goes faster. Might be a autism thing but it really annoys me when I'm trying to mentally visualize something. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds the same as a song that doesn't want to stop popping up in ones head over and over again. Trying to distract oneself from it, seems the only way that might help, as far as I know. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's b0rked, and you can get me there, I can fix it. As long as it's not some onboard computer module or something, they make those impossible to fix without sending them off somewhere. If you just want it all supercharged and murdered out, that might take a bit. I'll need lots of bologna sandwiches and kool-aid. Also, scripts. If you want custom scripting for a bike, HMU inworld sometime, and we can talk. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just FYI - several stores are going in-world only. If you don't see your favs on the MP, check their socials or profiles for their SLURLs. The good news is things tend to be much cheaper in-world anyway (plus we can use gift cards n group discounts n thangs). 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sid Nagy Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 I hope that they are smart enough to only deactivate their products on the MP. Otherwise it will be an awful lot of work to list all the items again once the storm is over. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeing pink elephants" is a euphemism for hallucinations caused by delirium tremens or alcoholic hallucinosis, especially the former. I have it on good account that many of the demons mentioned in a certain Babylonian text take the form of pink elephants (kidding about that, they're actually far nastier), and the only way to get rid of them for good is to quit believing in them. People who disregard the possibility of multitudes of demons being able to crap up their lives tend to have far less trouble with demons, it seems. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better one than a multitude beyond counting, I should think. Especially when it doesn't have its prey running scared of every shadow. I really don't see how believing in a multitude of hideous, invisible, half-embodied, starveling entities having nothing but your pain and suffering as motives for their interactions with you would be more desirable than never even seeing their deformed footprints in the ashes around the bed, but then, I never said I knew what was best for everyone else, either. EDIT: In fact, that Denial demon might just be the last one to go. Like, when people stop denying that they themselves bring on most of their own suffering, and cop to their own humanity and lack of idealized perfection. Like instead of fantasizing a bunch of invisible baddies, they own up to the fact that people can be responsible for their own misdeeds. Demon banished. ~POOF~ Edited February 28 by PheebyKatz 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
