Resetera goes through your PMs or excelsiorlef is such a fucking douchebag that it likes to tattle tale. You're getting doxed bitch.

excelsiorlef is like a feminist talking point personified. Reading her posts is like reading a pamphlet on intersectionality. Nothing she says ever seems like it came from an independent thought.

I remember asking for an HIV test after going on a serious one night stand streak. Doctor looked at me and asked "are you heterosexual?" i said yes. He replied "well, did you have any homosexual encounters" i said "no". He says, "you're good then, relax". True story. 

Sounds like a shitty doctor, to be quite honest with you famalam. Yes, it's rare in heterosexuals, but what if you had someone a la Charlie Sheen-ing it up?

at that doctor. Fucking moron.

Dunno what that physician was smoking. Unless there's some cost involved in those tests and they are ordered to screen tightly due to budgetary reasons he just seems like moron. Here, the proper protocol for the test is already there if the patient asks for one, never mind having risky sexual behavior on top of it.

I would feel very dirty if anyone committed suicide as a result, in part, of my negative interactions with them, regardless how much I disliked them or their ideology. But I guess I am not virtuous enough to keep harping on a woman being problematic for having agency over her own body after she just committed suicide.

This is not to be confused with virtue signaling, btw. It's different.

at this point the term virtue signaling, at least on the bore, has come to mean, that crazy ass thing gaffers/resetters tend to do

No, not really. It's a term for people tripping over themselves to show their tribe how progressive they are. Above Rufus inferred that I was virtue signaling in my post, which is a notion I disagree with. I don'g give a fuck about being virtuous, I'm mostly a shitty person.

For me to virtue signal on the Bore, I would have to know what are the collective values of boreans are. Since it is a much less homogeneous group than a place like Reset, that's an impossible task. But I am glad you find my values virtuous  If you're gonna throw shade at me, you might as well do it at Cindi and everyone else who expressed their views on what happened with August Ames.

I thought I had sickle cell once and my doctor asked if I was black

That's completely different and you know it. HIV can hit you black/white/brown/yellow/green/grey...

Sickle Cell is a black-only problem. So unless you're mixed (which makes that question valid) he can go "ok, no, you're not affected by that."

Yes, they do look waifish nowadays. Maybe not from where you are, but certainly around my way. The thin, underaged look is in.

Also, there seems to be a lot of posts that seem to think that a young girl with her legs open and showing her panties is not suggestive...

I do understand that you think yourself exempt because you're using a more constricted and pejorative definition of virtue signaling, but to me, flaunting your superior morality is flaunting your superior morality (disregarding question of what's superior for the minute). I don't think it's bad as such, but I point my finger this time because, well, because you've done it before and I'm the kind of boring stickler who goes "well, actually..."

This is quite a horrible thing for me to read and I'm glad the site is on my side here. So because my avatar is from a Nintendo game I carry a certain "baggage" based purely on that, you know nothing else about me other than that (I'm 99.9% sure I've never interacted with you before) but you judge me based on one picture I use for one profile. You don't see how really not nice at all that is?

EDIT: was typing when Jonneh posted their reply.

Can I please get some clarification here about that reprimand Zhuge just gave me? I PMed them but they haven't responded, I'm getting flung from pillar-to-post here and I don't have a single comment posted as evidence which I went over the line with.

Can I please have a mod explain the stance here to me?

Well I'd like an explanation from a mod, again there is no evidence posted where I went over the line. I'm not going to insult people over something as trivial as this, that's just not who I am and I think my history points to that and I feel harshly treated and so want an explanation.

These kind of posts aren't getting anyone anywhere. I'll take it up with a mod in private messaging, and take my leave of this thread. Feel free to ignore my last few posts everyone

You're good people in my book

(I'll send you a PM very soon that I'd appreciate you take a look at).

Poor Nintendumb

[Raist]

That's being disingenuous and you know it. What if one of your sexual partners took drugs intravenously? What if one of them had HIV and you didn't know it? That's my point. No matter how rare it is in the heterosexual community, if you have a concern about it you should be tested just for the peace of mind. The doctor scoffing and going "nah, breh, you're fine" is someone that shouldn't be practicing medicine, IMO. Yes, there's hypochondriacs where that sort of scoffing is valid.  But HIV is one of those things you don't fuck around with.

It's honestly one of those things where "bug-chasing" and younger gays not having safe sex bothers the shit out of me, because of history. So seeing that sort of non-worry just because your heterosexual is ing the fuck out of me.

It's a dumb thing to say for anyone, but you know, lack of education etc.

But for a GP? Fuck's sake. Although I can't say I'm entirely surprised.

Dunno what that physician was smoking. Unless there's some cost involved in those tests and they are ordered to screen tightly due to budgetary reasons he just seems like moron. Here, the proper protocol for the test is already there if the patient asks for one, never mind having risky sexual behavior on top of it.

It's cheap as fuck.

Those nerds can't understand that being a nerd isn't really about being into "nerdy" or "smart things" or even weird shit like whatever TVC gets into at 2pm on a Tuesday. It's about being a weirdo. Lacking social skills. That may mean an obsession with a certain thing, it may not.

It's the nicer version of what people got called before austism and being on the spectrum was talked about all the time. It's still about being weirdos with poor social skills.

When it comes to sales threads Nintendo fans have been the worst for over a decade interrupted briefly when the Gameboy advance was outselling the PS3.

That shit was hilarious.

[Spieler1]

Fanboyism might be this hobby's prime cancer, but my bias is that adult Nintendo cheerleaders are especially distinguished mentally-challenged - particularly because I was mostly in that camp before the 2010s and I cringe whenever I see their blatant patterns and little knowledge of the overall industry. And because Nintendo's recent flop years made a prime example of how hardcore corporate slaves might just border literal mental illness. The ways some people go out to defend their favorite toy company parallels defending one's own family. At least it's only games, under different circumstances they could've been religious zealots (maybe some are).

Nintendo fans are just cheerleaders. If they were all hot blondes, you’d like them better. They don’t usually shit on other games, so much as they just hype their own games up endlessly.

Sony fans are the worst. They shit on everything except their litter box and they’re really really fucking aggressive about it.

I don’t think the Microsoft stans have ever really given a shit about this stuff, so much as they’re mostly just dragged into it by the other two camps.

That reminds me that "master race" goons are aids though. Since I'm mostly reading topics on Japanese games, most of the discourse I see from PC people is either port begging or "only 30 fps!? lol gonna pirate, lazy developers gtfo".
