The Haus of Talk Thread

[Picochilla]

got sick and have no PC, woooohooo -__-

[Zha Hong Lang]

Now that I have something else to talk about...

I may have to go away from these forums for a while, given my current situation in real life. Things are kind of complicating for me as my school's workload starts building up, and I also have some trouble talking to a friend about some things that are important. Going to the talkhaus now feels more like a procrastination than it is really talking to other people, and what's even worse is that I'm tempted to rely on this site even more than I already am.

I'm also kind of worried about this site wearing down my confidence to confront my friend. It seems that the more time I spend being carefree, (or being around many others also acting carefree) the more I become afraid of having to do what I need to do. Being carefree... really just doesn't feel like me, and I immediately regret the time I spend making jokes (especially lewd ones) or anything similar like that. It just doesn't fit me, and I feel like I'm lying to others by acting this way. (even though I tell myself it's just a habit...) Overall, it just feels like a facade I put on to temporarily gain the attention of people.

What makes matters worse is that the guy I want to talk to doesn't like to take things seriously, especially the subject I want to talk to him about. We also have really different ideals about things in general, (from what I know about him so far) but that's not what I'm really concerned about. Not even the fact that I used to like him makes me agitated. (the relationship kind, mind you)

What bothers me most is that I feel like as long as I act carefree, I'm not going to be able to get anything across to him that I want to. This makes me sad each and every time I've approached him, gotten distracted by some subject, and then went away completely forgetting about what I wanted to say. The subject I want to share with him is also one that I can't really share... openly, mind you, with anyone on this board, since I'm the only one here who has the opinion I have about it, as far as I'm concerned. I already tried talking to someone here about that thing, but it... wasn't really something that person could really reply to, either.

I'm sorry to be so vague about the topic, but it's one that's been really hurtful towards others in the past. Sharing about it right here would probably stir up needless discussion, which I really don't want to tend to because of the time restraints I have. The reason I'm talking about any of this is that I just want you guys to know that this is something I'm really concerned about, and none of this is caused or enhanced by the recent arguments.

It seems that this is getting ignored, so I might as well just go away now. (Sorry to sound rude, though it took me a really long time to write that and it's also a very serious issue for me)

Honestly, I thought about responding, but it didn't sound like you wanted to discuss it. Either way, I wish you well!

[Sorel]

Oh, it wasn't my intention to ignore your post, but I kinda forgot to post something. Woops.

Real life is something that should always have a higher priority, so if you feel like we are slowing you down then take a little break from coming to this place. I'm sure no one is going to be mad at you or anything.

About confronting your pal, it's not always easy to talk with someone about serious things when the person you are talking to is a very carefree type, but I'm afraid I can offer you no help on that matter. Sorry.

And don't worry, putting up a little facade is something which many of us probably do, including me. If I wouldn't try to sound normal and more serious and sad like I always do in real life, no one would appreciate my presence, I'm sure of that. But there is one important thing - keep that facade onlie-only. Don't let it take over your true personality. That's pretty much all the advice I have, and I apologize if that didn't help you at all. It's hard for me to give good advice.

That said... take care. I'm sure we will meet again someday.

I think I just found a condiment(I think) that causes depression and self-introspection.

[Ashan]

I have no relish for depressing condiments.

[Fidget]

Hmm.

[Sturg]

Mhmm.

[Mata Hari]

You think it's a condiment?

If it causes depression, it might not be.

quite a bit of drama going on
and the rest of us are like

relevant as always

Anyone just getting online right now:

[Frozelar]

Wait, I don't...
I don't get it
I didn't even see anything bad

I'd appreciate it if peeps would stop posting stuff like this.
It doesn't help a mess to point at the mess and say "that's a mess", y'know? And joking about it might just make things a bit worse in my mind.

[Ivy]

On the contrary, I think making light of it helps promote a "don't give a shit" attitude, which helps make everyone more chill.

[ano0maly]

Since it's in a different thread, being posted as a bystander, I think it's fine.

I don't like people coming in to make fun and jokes in a discussion that needs a serious tone. But it helps to lighten up the mood a little bit to cheer people up and soften things out.

Yeah like I agree with Ivy, where it lightens the mood a little. But hey, I'll stop. Sowee :3c

That's the problem, people probably should give quite a few shits about this.
Not to the point of everyone being stressed and sweating buckets but at least, like, don't literally compare it to that silly gif.

[Rixithechao]

Wait, are these late reactions to the aftermath of the one thing or is there something else going on that I'm missing?

*Checks new posts*

Ah. Okay then.

Besides, I used that gif like literally 3 pages ago.

[Kapus]

No real clue as to what caused today's stuff, but if it was that thread that got locked, yeesh. I'm glad it was locked as that was just a dumb thing to start up with the way tensions have been running recently. Anyway, that's all from me on that.

Also, we got our first big snowfall of the year right as I entered the land where Snowhead is in Majora's Mask. Conspiracy or not? You decide.
