After having the delightful experience of crossing verbal swords with my delightful friends here at Truancy Forums I have decided, due to me finally finishing the medical textbooks and fashion magazines I mentioned a while ago, to have some more fun with said friends. But please don't set your attack dog onto me until she has taken her antidepressants, as there was a noticeable increase in politeness in our lovely friend directly after I helped get her back on her medication schedule. Too bad it only lasted for a few posts...I really should remind the poor thing again when we next have one of our lovely chats, something like "You're a big girl now, you can do it." or "Take your antidepressants or the bogeyman will get yooooooooooooou!"...something like that. Oh dear, I seem to be getting sentimental when I am should be explaining what my post is about, silly ol' me. And no Nazi references, they are a sign of lacking mental ability and fear of actually arguing like "grown ups", not to mention that I would hate to see my lovely friends tarnish their pristine reputations(in my eyes at least).
Oh, and Virgil 3? In regards to this:
"I see you've logged on today, Machiaveli. I hope you've been studying. I want ~good~ arguments. Don't me down. I just wanted to ask a little about your background, if It's ok with you. I'm not asking for a last name or address(duh XD), but I'd like to see some credentials to your intellect."
Attempting to patronize a person whom you have only spoken with once or twice may instill hatred and a reluctance to cooperate in said person. Likewise, do not feel that you know that person just because the two of you have barely communicated. Continuing to engage in these behaviors would slowly grow the hatred and uncooperativeness in the person and eventually lead to full-blown dislike of yourself.
Toodles.

Now, now, Redman, you really shouldn't speak for other people. Besides which, Virgil 3 may just have been a bit overzealous in his friendliness. Especially since this delightful little forum is rather empty at the moment, eh? It's rather like that sad group of children in the lunchroom who are so happy when somebody comes over to play with them. But don't worry y'all, I'll be your happy little playmate for the time being (:

No seriously. Quite acting all Condescending. Ya, the forums gotten quieter. People actually have lives, but we have to keep it clean until the next book comes out. Quite flaming and trolling. And it Virgil J

Got it?

Keep it clean? What do you mean by that? Besides which, I was only trying to be friendly, just like Virgil J was to me. He and I can get along so I'm sure we can to. Furthermore, you really should stop throwing words around like "flaming" and "trolling" when someone has just agreed to be your happy little playmate. And my lunchroom analogy was in reference to how many fans, if you will, of Truancy there are. Despite interviews with the author on NPR and a large advertising campaign. These are the sort of books that would should get kids interested. You know, 25-page fight sequences that repeat themselves, "grown ups are bad" themes, and, of course, the ever delightful example of Umasi killing Edward instead of becoming the Mayor. Though they might not like how some of the character(s) have to struggle with their split personalities inside their heads.

Aah, Relicnerd, so fun to see dear Saphie's old friend again. Oh, the good times the three of us had together...please do give sweet little Saphie my regards, will you? And please remind her to take those antidepressants, as I am concerned for her well-being and I get a warm fuzzy feeling inside me when I help someone. Anyhow, this latest outburst of your's really is saddening and I hope that we will be able to resolve this teensy weensy issue in future chats, okey-dokey?

Wait, before we go any further, can you explain the "Relicnerd" thing? I mean, I get that it's a play on words, but what was the message? Is it a reference to how I haven't been here in a while, or were you just calling me old(that hurts my feelings, I'm only 21, lol)? OR maybe you were comparing me to Relic, a badass D&D character that my friend made up on the spot while were gettint our asses kicked during last week's game. I'm serious though, could you explain what the hell that meant?
Don't make me link to that XKCD comic about how "communicating poorly and then acting smug when you're misunderstood is not cleverness."
[internettoughguy]Because I will.[/internettoughguy]

Also, what "good times" are you talking about? How many interactions have we actually had on this forum? Like, less than ten? I honestly have no idea what's going on with "Saphie." Maybe you're confusing me with someone else. The only other explanation would be that you're deliberately injecting pretentious, condescending words and phrases like "aah," "toodles," "oh, the good times," "dear friend," "please do" and "crossing verbal swords" into your posts in an attempt to build up an online image as a crafty, cultured adversary in order to bury yourself into deeper denial of the truth that none of your methods for pissing people off are very creative, and everyone pretty much just thinks you're an run-of-the-mill dick.

But I know that can't be it. ;)

Oh, you don't know what's going on with Saphie? But wasn't she texted by someone on the forums to "troll" me? And "crossing verbal swords" is a polite way of saying "having an argument". I just didn't want to offend a certain person. All the phrases you mentioned are an effort on my part to be polite. Hell, I could stop trying to be polite if you like. And what do you mean by cultured? I don't like art and I detest the stage. As a matter of fact, I'm tired of you constantly harassing me despite my efforts at politeness. This is almost exactly like the cafeteria analogy I used earlier. Virgil J is the intelligent one who doesn't particularly care for the other's clan-like mentality but is still a slimy rat. And you represent the bulk of the group who like to pretend that everyone, even the friendly kid, is out to get them. Talk about pathetic. And in regards to your name, I didn't see it properly, Rebelnerd. I hope that next time you open your mouth you can try to be a bit more understanding and thoughtful about what you are about to say.
TOODLES.

And here's a fight scenario for the final book:
The perfect fight scenario would be for the battle to take place on a nuclear powered Speedo made out of white chocolate that has a tendency to tango, tango, TANGO!!! And while the Speedo is tangoing "One Winged Angel" will play and Sepiroth and Cloud will arrive in a taxi! And while all this epicness is going on Mi Albino Lady will assault Iris by dual wielding a pair of bananas and a raw burger!!! And see, Iris will do the electric slide while stabbing the burger with her glorified cattle prod, causing the burger to be cooked! Cloud and Sepiroth will then hijack the taxi, which will grow a wing and will fight to the death for the burger!!! Mi Albino Lady will then perform a kamehamebanana using dual bananas and blow Iris through the very fabric of space, time, and darkness/evil/Donald Trump's wig. Dialga, Palkia, and Donald Trump will then emerge from this rip in reality and start fighting the characters. Umasiculate will be impaled by Dialga's headgear, striking a victory for Gap. Zen will rip apart Palkia with the power of his split personalities. Cross will be absorbed by Donald Trump's wig, causing it to evolve into Indiana Jones' fedora!!! Indiana Jones' fedora and Dialga will destroy each other in a massive explosion of whipped cream, monkeys, and bone fragments! Zen, Mi Albino Lady, and Tack will then proceed to crash land the Speedo on the lost island of Atlantis, where they will prepare to fight the evil government people...who are led by Donald Trump!!!
It's brilliant, I tell you, simply BRILLIANT!!!
