Brian, meet Tate.

[notfuckingcasper]

When should you take what women say seriously?

O hai! :D

[phantom_limbs]

I don't even understand the question.

No, okay. Frankly, taking people seriously is the quickest way I know to make life a drag, so I'd say you should avoid it. As for women, the only woman I've ever taken seriously was my mom. Otherwise? Who cares what they say, unless it's useful. Which sometimes it is, because the more you know, the easier it is to get them to do what you want. But that doesn't mean it matters.

That help, or are you looking for something a little more specific?

[notfuckingcasper]

I never take her seriously. She drove my father away. I know where I got the brains from at least.

[Teenagers, man.]

When she says she loves me but can't [won't] be with me.

[phantom_limbs]

Hey, whatever. Families are complicated blah blah blah.

That sounds like bull to me. She's probably with someone else, so your best bet would be to take them out of the picture.

[notfuckingcasper]

She's close to her parents. They don't deserve her. They're selfish.

[You...you speak his language, Brian.]

[phantom_limbs]

Yeah, definitely. Okay, here's what you do: kill them, step in to comfort her in her time of need, make yourself indispensable, reap the rewards.

I'd probably vivisect her too, eventually, but you know. To each their own.

[notfuckingcasper]

That was the plan originally.

[Confessionnnnnnnn.]

It's sort of backwards.

[Backwards is a nice way of putting it Tate.]

Did you do that? ...did it work for you?

[phantom_limbs]

A few times, sure. Usually it works out. For something simple, like getting laid? No problem.

Big picture... well, a few miscalculations can wreck pretty much any plan. You can kill off all your rivals for someone's affection, but apparently, you can't count on them not to get pissy about it.

Go figure.

[notfuckingcasper]

Don't they say all is fair in love and war?

[phantom_limbs]

Love is overrated.

[notfuckingcasper]

What's better? The thrill?

[phantom_limbs]

There's definitely something to be said for that.

[notfuckingcasper]

That's brief.

Like a big hit. Then it's nothing.

[phantom_limbs]

I'm not saying it lasts. Luckily there's always another, and another, and another, you know? Anything that lasts gets boring. It's all about satisfying the urge, every time it crops up. Otherwise what's the point?

[notfuckingcasper]

Maybe there is no point at all.

[phantom_limbs]

Nihilism's pretty boring too. Do whatever it takes to have fun and fuck the rest, that's my attitude.
