Things I keep telling people...

[RileyFaux]

There are certain things I keep having to tell people but for some reason they almost never listen, like, it's supposed to be like that or that's what I just said, so my question is this, fellow escapists: What things do you have to tell people all the time but never seems to get through to them? :<

 

[Aerodyamic]

I'm right, and that I should be viewed as an exemplar of the higher ideals of mankind?

 

[Amethyst Wind]

People on the internet with superiority complexes are not doing anyone favours.

"I'm not going to Uni."
"Oh. Why don't you try Leeds met?"
"I'm not going to uni."
"I see. How about Huddersfield?"
"I'm not going to Uni!"
"Then you should try York St Jo-"
"I'M NOT GOING TO FUCKING UNI!"

People need to try stop controlling my life and get on with theirs. When I have trouble sleeping, if I tell someone they'll respond with, "Just try really hard."
Stupid gits.

"Don't touch the bathroom door on the way out, people don't wash their hands, so you'll get ebola."

"There is a high positive correlation between chalk and pure concentrated evil."

I keep telling people not to watch the live action Death Note film, but they always do....

"It showed a penis" is NOT a good reason to hate Watchmen. (It showed boobs too y'know!)

"Bad graphics" is no excuse to not at least try out a game.

Sample something for more than 2 mins. before judging it. (By "something" I mean anything like a TV show, video game, etc.)

"Don't touch the bathroom door on the way out, people don't wash their hands, so you'll get ebola."

Lol I can never get enough of the bathrooms with space age, no-touch everything only to have a pull door that some guy who didn't wash afterwords just used...

"That apostrophe has no right to be there. Deal with it, please."

Those bathrooms drive me insane... and I'm talking batshit here. Sometimes I think that I should just carry a bottle of Windex on a big chain around my neck, like the Flava Flav of Windex, and then I can sterilize the doors of all the bathrooms that I'm forced to use. And also spray it on people who I see not washing their hands. Seriously, they deserve worse. Or maybe that's just the OCD talking... one of the two.

What've you got against the live action Death Note film? I thought it was a lot of fun, and in some areas even surpassed the anime. For instance,

Spoiler

in as far as portraying Light as the sociopath that he is, having him set up that elaborate plot in which his own girlfriend gets killed was brilliant.

Sure, it lost some of its charm... but really, it wasn't bad at all. Plus... they played the Red Hot Chili Peppers during the end credits, so... bonus points!

 

[Something Amyss]

I keep telling people not to worship me as a God. But do they listen? Nooooo....

As you said, it lost most it's charm. It doesn't have the slow burn there which was in the anime. Overall it just feels unnecessary. And I didn't like the acting.

You know most bacteria can't survive long on metal surfaces a couple of minutes maybe and even less if it's in a damp environment. It's also pretty hard for them to transfer to smooth surfaces in the first place.

Add to that the fact a lot of commercial bathroom surfaces made in the last five years have silver nano deposits to actively kill bacteria and your talking about a negligible risk.

Now if it's a wooden door handle, a very dry environment or exceptionally greasy then go ahead and worry yourself to death rather than leave to toilet.

You and me both...

"When are you cutting your hair?" Not any time in the foreseeable future. That's mostly to family members that are not immediate. They don't get that I'm not and will not be "normal" to them ever.

Never take life seriously, nobody gets out alive anyway....

 

[TheHecatomb]

That proper understanding of anatomy is important if you want to draw people, characters, creatures etc. YES also if you want to draw stylised or cartoony shit, damn it!

Socialism means less government power, more individual rights.

nudity is not = porn. I watched childs movies as a kid with naked people in it, which were definatly not pornographic.

plus people never get that they are atheists too, i just believe in one god less than them .
