Why's that?

Not enough fun people to interact with?

I don't know. I just don't get on here as much as I used to do.

It seems like you rarely have conversations with anyone but me.

Which kind of defeats the purpose of a social network, doesn't it?

Well, you're the only one who ever talks to me on here lol. I put up plurks hoping everyone will jump in and talk

For me at least, one of the reason I stay on plurk is because I know most of the people on my timeline irl as well as online.

Here, the only people that use this, is me and my friend, Maggie, rarely gets on.

Yeah... which makes it hard difficult.

lol- started saying two different things.

I think we'd all understand if you decided to leave plurk, it happens more than you think.

My ex got an account for all of two weeks a couple months ago. Logged in twice and then never touched it again.

I was actually glad of that, he was one of the reasons I deleted my twitter account.

I don't do twitter, lol.

Never said you did.

What got you on plurk anyways?

Matthew Lush, lol.

And I know you didn't say that I did. I was just making conversation.

Matthew Lush?

Please forgive my ignorance.

Yes, he is the gay god!!

I'll post a video.

Haha, okay.

Ooh, did a google search. He's cute. Not really my type, but cute.

I'm digging the love, hearts and rainbows vibe.

Yea- very fem.

I like a man, lol

orlynao?

What?

"Oh really now?"

Yes.

Then you wouldn't be interested in me

Haha- well, I think that the relationship wont work out with two fem people

Why not?

And how fem is fem?

I do some pretty femmy things, I just don't dress as a woman everyday of my life.

Go on.

Manscaping, Eyeliner, When it comes to getting ready in the morning, I take longer than a woman does.

I REALLY care about the way I look in public.

I've been told I walk and talk fem. too

I hope this doesn't come across as me being rude, but what of it?

You strike me as someone comfortable and strong in your sexuality.

Why do you care?

I am comfortable and strong in my sexuality. I don't know why I care, I guess it is just

when I don't feel attractive, I feel lousy.

What does it mean for you to feel attractive?

To look good, all the time.

But what does looking good mean to you? And you can feel free to ask me questions as well.

Dressing in nice clothes, making sure I'm clean. Perfectly pedicured toenails. I have to make sure I smell nice.

What about you?

I always feel damn good on the days when I get a good workout in the morning.

Like by no means am I buff, but something about being up early and getting the blood flowing makes me feel like a cat.

I just want to strut and show off and look around me like I own this silly little world.

Plus I like dressing up, a nice pair of jeans that show off the assets, a button-up shirt and a nice vest. If I had a few I'd wear suits.

I guess it's just about putting in a little effort, isn't it?

Yea. Like they always say. "Beauty is pain"

Do you agree with that?

Do you honestly think sadness can be a beautiful thing?

It depends, sadness via death is beautiful. Just because it shows how the world is meant to work.

What about other kinds of sadness?

How can it be beautiful if it is causing pain?

I separate pain and sadness.

They're not dependent upon each other.

Sadness can be born of love.

Sadness can also be born from no love.

Isn't that the same thing?

No, you can love some one and be sad to see them go, You can also have sadness created by immense hatred towards someone.

love and the absence of love, these opposites are really the same thing.

I don't understand...

They're part of a bigger concept of Love that both is and isn't.

To put it another way, the two sides of a coin are still parts of the coin.

So love and no love just makes up something bigger?

Essentially yes. You can't really know love without knowing hate, but I'm getting all postmodern on you, I apologize.

You're fine. I enjoy it.

Okay, I just worry sometimes I come off too strongly as an English major analyzing all these things to death.

I'M GOING TO BE AN ENGLISH MAJOR STARTING IN AUGUST!

Lit or creative writing or...?

Both

Why English?

I love English. I love the literature, reading it, writing it, and spreading it among the world.

Hmm, okay.

Why do you want to be an English Major? and Are you in Lit or creative writing?

I'm a Lit major, planning on doubling in some kind of pre-health area.

As far as why...

I've had some really quality English teachers and professors in my life and I've always been strong with words and language.

I like taking texts and picking them apart.

That is good. My last English Teacher, Debra Nunn, inspired my career choice.

And what do you intend with this career?

I want to be a journalist, but I'm going to do all I can with English in college as I can, so I can have some back up careers.

As the_author would say, why in hell would you choose to be an English major?

But of course, he's an English professor, and as some would say a king of disillusionment.

Do you consider being an English major a disillusionment?

I think in the humanities departments like English you tend to find more people who are disillusioned.

That is very...very true.

In much of philosophy and English you spend all this time deconstructing and taking things apart and so you look at life and your

surroundings and you see that so much of it is crap.

Which is very dark and pessimistic and I keep finding myself wondering how do we use this?

Y'know? How do we use this knowledge and ability to make the world better so it isn't crap?

We don't, the world is crap for a reason, and English and Philosophy was just designed to help more people figure out that it is that way

for that reasoning, to tell us we should just leave it as it is.

I can't believe that. Because so much of everything else is beautiful.

Just because it is beautiful, doesn't mean that it isn't just sugar coating the distorted reality.

I never said it being beautiful was necessarily a good or positive thing.

If we think about God or the Devil (and by the Devil, I mean Lucifer, the Fallen angel), we view them as Good and Evil, right?

But they do not always work within the kind of strict Positive/negative parameter which we understand.

God can do things that are cruel while the Devil can make himself your best friend.

In this way they can represent something bigger, something more. But that doesn't change how we see it.

It doesn't change the beauty of it, which is worth seeing and exploring.

So in reality, good is really the deceptive force in the world...???

Or rather our perception of good and evil.

That's true. The epic battle of our lives.
