2nd experiment

[greenteengenius]

Currently there is more talk about how much people hate hearing about capybaras than talk either pro- or anti- capybara. That makes the people who are against talking the most talkative of any of the three groups.

Is this sort of thing normal human behavior?

[rule_britannia]

I'm afraid so.

Frustrating, isn't it.

[greenteengenius]

Confusing, I would have said. Perhaps they're bored?

[rule_britannia]

Perhaps.

Though I can think of many more useful ways to occupy myself when I'm bored.

[greenteengenius]

Perhaps it is a matter of personality. I could compare the houses of the people involved, but I'm not curious enough.

[rule_britannia]

Nor I. Sociological study isn't high on my list of boredom-relieving activities.

[donutsanddestiny]

If by 'this sort of thing' you mean stupidity, then the answer is yes.

[greenteengenius]

I was trying to be a little more precise and understand the phenomena. Is it a result of pure irritation that is relieved by commiseration? Or people wanting to participate in the discussion despite not having an opinion?

And yes, I am bored.

[donutsanddestiny]

I think it's more of the first mixed with, you know, stupidity.

Bored? Hm?

[greenteengenius]

Perhaps I'm better at ignoring entries on here than some.

Yes. I hope the first clubs meet soon, I'm working through my homework too quickly.

[donutsanddestiny]

What clubs did you end up joining?

[greenteengenius]

Fight club, cursebreaker's and medical science and magic.

[donutsanddestiny]

Barbaric, interesting, and interesting.

[greenteengenius]

Life is more interesting with a touch of barbarism.

[donutsanddestiny]

...I suppose a barbaric person would think that.

[greenteengenius]

Frankly it was the only club that involved vigorous exercise. We'll see how it goes. I'm not exactly used to fisticuffs.

[donutsanddestiny]

Good luck or whatever, then!

[greenteengenius]

If I show up with a bruised eye, you may feel free to laugh.

Are you involved with the other two?

[donutsanddestiny]

Oh, thank you!

And no. Clubs aren't my, um, thing.

[greenteengenius]

You'd rather be experimenting on your own, I suppose?

[donutsanddestiny]

Or doing anything on my own.

[greenteengenius]

I'm used to doing everything on my own. I suppose you could say I'm overcompensating at the moment.

[donutsanddestiny]

I suppose.

[preanimator]

We've already had our first meeting, Dox.

[greenteengenius]

Oh, I missed it? Well, I was a bit late in choosing.

[preanimator]

Well, I suppose you can come to the second meeting, but do try to pay attention this time.

[greenteengenius]

Are you that strict about attendance? I do have to prioritize school should my load increase.

[preanimator]

One can only get something from this kind of activity if one is in attendance. If you intend on missing most of the meetings, what's the point of even being in the club?

[greenteengenius]

I have no plan to do such. I simply wasn't aware of the clubs until later.

But I can't promise perfect attendance.

[preanimator]

Well, if you contribute enough, I suppose you can be excused in extreme circumstances.
