I'm sorry guys... this was all a lie... I have been the victim of indoctrination. The pledge of allegiance has ruined me and now I worship the united states like I worship god.
Need to mull this over. Too many damn Farmer Teds in the John Hughes saga that is FFXIAH. Not enough Duckies from 'Pretty in Pink'.
What in the name of Poseidon's giant, blue, engorged crank does that mean?
On bullying threads in the past, when I've suggested that activities (to channel your strengths and give you awareness of where you might be lacking as you mature) and involvement, can deter bullying, I've been called a bully on here because I was involved in student activities and clubs. :/
It's an obnoxious, cyclical argument sometimes when you have people who, either through their own accord or their parents', have a preconditioned view and still harbor an "us versus them" mentality into their adulthood.
Acknowledging contrary data appears to be largely anathema to a considerable proportion of the internet and, by extension, everyone on the planet.
The difference, I guess, is that when I hear someone say something patently wrong to me in real life (easy example: a co-worker was saying that creatine supplementation helps you look "cut," when it actually has exactly the opposite effect), I just roll my eyes and carry on with my life. That XKCD about "someone on the internet is wrong!" captures some weird aspect of human nature.
Well, that and correcting the wrong person in real life can be a good way to get assaulted or harassed or, in a pinch, made to regret even waking up in the morning by the 40-minute diatribe that follows.

I did not know anything until today...
HOW MANY LIGHTS DO YOU SEE.
What is light? There is something other than black? What have I been doing all these years!

this is where you went wrong. give em' hell in rl too!!! who gives a ***? if you're living comfortably all the time, are you even really living?
I'm a natural pedagogue (or pedant, if you prefer -- there's a story associated with that one), so it's really hard for me to walk past when I hear someone say something incorrect. I won't get into a screaming match about whether Obama is running the country right, but it makes my skin crawl to still hear people call him Muslim.

You better be right a whole lot or that's gonna get pretty embarassing for you...
I tend to use humor and satire to get my points across since I find people are more willing to hear you out if you coat the vegetables in bacon grease.

You could ask a podiatrist about that.
Except that if we're going to go by the etymological reason why pedagogue and pedant are synonyms, I'd be better off consulting a pediatrician.

To be fair, AH can be unwelcoming for newcomers until everyone gets a feel for each other.

In another world I'm behind a pulpit. I do love the sound of my own voice and I can be as long winded and ornate for no apparent reason. I blame video games and theater - mainly villainous monologues. So many times I wish I had a cape just to watch it swish in the wind...
Why say in one sentence what you can say in a paragraph!
There is plenty of reason to be angry if you understand the consequences of issues. I find many people in my life live in a state of complete apathy and it bothers me. They may be content with swaying in the wind, but I'm not. What I say here is usually dialed up for dramatic effect but I guess that'd be hard to discern!

yeah I like to leave people alone when they're wrong, way more fun to play ignorant irl but it's fun here too.
Usually you get to see or know them realize the truth on their own anyway and I hate gloating in general so I find it better to just continue to play dumb even afterwards lol
Without going too much into details I'll tell you guys a secret(which you probably already knew of): if you tell a professor in front of the whole class that they are wrong they're not gonna take it too well.

Damn blast and damn, I missed the pun. And hate you because I hate puns. But, good one, nonetheless.

"Prof, you're a *** idiot and I'm going to tell you why."
*leaps out of chair, grabs dry ease from prof, starts writing on whiteboard*
"And now you know why you're a *** idiot. Class dismissed everyone."
Everyone takes being wrong different but damn near everyone reacts the same to being embarrassed or flat out insulted. How you go about correcting someone is everything.
It's the difference between a teacher and an *** looking to score intelligence points.

Since we all can't be on the same linkshell in game, this can be our cross server linkshell thread.
Like most linkshells, it can be pretty dead at times. Other times it's full of intense conversations about either rl, gear, goals, pokemon or anything else you want to contribute.
We can cover any sort of topic at all, within reason of the forum rules. No real main topic, just a bunch of FFXIAH friends/people coming on and discussing random things.
Yeah Chuu. Bringing you up to speed, Ludoggy is the LS pedophile. I'm the fountain of random and useless knowledge that makes you go "Hrm" with the occasional side of "holy shit he said what?"
Kungfu is the LS nutjob, spouting super random things that are usually sexist, until Savvy or Alyria comes into the room. Then he's a classic case of sexual harrassment. Rumaha is also true to the second part; we're wondering about his sexuality though.
Daj is Ludoggy's gay lover. Not much else is known about this Asuran. Tairo is kinda new, but since is a female and Alyria's lesbian lover, she fit right in real quick.
Celene(F) and Rowland(M) are more of the shyer members, but often say things that are witty, have a good pun and sometimes cause three page discussions. Celene hates when people hit on her. It doesn't stop them from trying.
Krizz is just social and likes to kill time here during work Tbest is about the same, except tends to be a douche to guys and affectionate toward girls.
Alyria is the most social female, gets groped a lot without provoking it by others, and Tairo ends up stabbing people for it. Cai is just a barrel of lols, I might be gay for him. If I wasn't straight.
Not sure about Citag, s/he's new. Kiriyu is just an in-out kinda person. Says one thing every three days that every guy makes a big fuss over. Ludoggy gets really defensive since she's asian and underage (might be 18 now).
Artem is the wayward soul that makes you ponder the meaning of life by constantly reminding us life can suck. But he deals, and so do we. About the same for Savannah, except people are more "AWH!" to her because of a vagina involved.
Dasva is the ex military man (as is Krizz but this doesn't apply to him) who hates the world and plots a way to destroy most of it.
Number2 is kinda like a mix between Cai and I; never bashes, likes to laugh and has odd avatars. His current suits a lot of the convos this LS gets into. Barti is most well known for his moustache. He gives mousatche rides for a fee. I'm missing a few people but whatever. CARRY ON!
Luelle Smells.
