[ there have been absolutely no delays on dave's end, to a weird as fuck degree. it shouldn't be possible to type and send messages as quickly as he does. ]
you too
if you want me to move out ever i can though say the word and ill ghost and not harass you at all
oh my god. i cannot tell if you're fucking with me or not. i am the one who just said we could fix the housing thing, why in the fuck would i want you to move out?
you really are, actually. but i kind of like it? like. i don't know. you seem kind of chill when you are not driving me crazy and i want to get to know you better but it is kind of impossible when you are doing stuff like this. so like. i get it? sort of? i am a pretty weird and cagey person sometimes, too, and i think that is probably part of the problem. and you keep saying things like that and somehow i am sure you are sincere which is the really weird part? but i don't know. i do not have a good read on people. and i want to change that. ok? so maybe that is actually my own problem, i do not know. maybe i am doing this wrong? i don't know. i don't know how to make friends like a normal person anymore and then there is all of this bullshit with people talking about memories and superpowers that i also want to understand. oh my god never mind this is way too many words.
haha what you know how to make friends fine john we could drop you in a room of strangers and i guarantee youd be having a friendly chat with one or all of them in two seconds flat i mean granted same but its different with you maybe its skewed a little to the right but you care about people and i think that tends to be the important thing when it comes to friends even if you are cagey which is weird but not so weird its this thing about you though the friend thing its not like youre some incorruptible nice angel but youre a good person who wants to get to know people and people respond to that i think its something i admire
anyway im not avoiding you or the room specifically and you arent fucking up so chill
hey did you ever hear as a kid that if you hang upside down long enough youll get smarter bc of the blood going to your head why are kids the way they are
because the internet likes to lie to us, probably. also that definitely did not work, i was not any smarter after i spent every recess for a week hanging from the monkey bars.
anyway. i don't know what to say to that that isn't weird. so i think this is where i will just say "thanks" and leave it as it is. but duh it is not hard to be nice to people and chat with them if people are willing. it is a complicated thing. and i...also do not know how to respond to that.
so yeah. okay. this is embarrassing and i should maybe chill. you are probably right?
am i? i dont know i used to chart wrong and right based on three different pillars now i do it mostly on my own and i fuck it up a lot i havent decided yet what that means
i dont think anything you said was that embarrassing
you know what i think i think seasonal flavors shouldnt just be seasonal
probably that you are human? humans fuck up a lot. and sometimes when humans fuck up, other people get fucked up, so it's a giant cycle of fucks. like a round robin of fucks. but you have not exactly fucked up yet so i think you are fine? do not quote me on that yet i think we are still in the trial period of friendship.
also maybe not but it was pretty dumb.
i have a countdown on my phone for when peppermint season starts.
cool. i've always wanted an alien friend. being human is pretty overrated anyway.
are you?
there are definitely places pushing christmas already. i don't like pumpkin that much anyway so i would be fine blowing past that. halloween is pretty acceptable though.
um. ok? robot friend, then. i can deal with that, too.
see that is still very strange to me since i have known you for like a week and you've already decided this. then again i sort of decided after the first day and now i am just confusing myself.
wal-mart probably has candy canes out by now? also do you not have normal candy stores here?
and i mean i do not like pumpkin that much! pumpkin spice is ok? i think i have officially been turned off by those though.
they taste best when youre cold and looking at something cool idk man dont you have drinks that you associate with good things like the pumpkin lattes just even thinking about them calls up like ten million memories arguing about them or sitting on the bench near the observatory people watching or doing late night cram sessions with as much sugar as humanly possible ive never liked energy drinks so caffeine is my go to
like stars or whales or people. and yeah of course i do but pumpkin spice is not one of them anymore. i am rebuilding my pumpkin-flavored memory bank to fill with good shit and not shit i find annoying now. that is because energy drinks hardly provide enough caffeine to do anything, plus they taste like shit. what's the observatory like here anyway? any good?
right so drink lattes with me actually dont thatd probably be something youd find annoying anyway the observatory is pretty cool theres the planetarium shows and shit you know its one of my favorite places even though the last time i went in was a while ago and is hilariously ironic in retrospect but we used to go on field trips there all the time i guess because it and the museums were like the most educational places they could think to shuttle us i used to have a glow in the dark planet keychain from there
hey yeah remember what you told me about your assumptions? that is one of your wrong ones. but that does sound cool? i haven't been to one in a few years but they were always fun. same with aquariums with like those touch tanks so you could pet starfish and stuff? those were cool. i don't know. why don't we get field trips in college? i want a refund already and school has barely started. i had those glow in the dark stars plastered to my ceiling forever. dave. can we get glow in the dark stars for the room?
well you seem very antilatte man im pretty sure the zoo has a touch tank in the aquarium section ftr i spent a lot of time there the other month also sure you can decorate shit however just dont hang up any creepy shit
currently antipumpkinlatte but could be convinced, maybe. this is still not a strong argument in favor of pumpkins. then i guess i know what i'm doing next weekend. after decorating, apparently. what exactly qualifies as creepy shit anyway?

take it easy then, i guess.

you too

no subject
i cannot tell if you're fucking with me or not.
i am the one who just said we could fix the housing thing, why in the fuck would i want you to move out?
no subject
?
that was a question
or a statement
im not sure which it was one of the two
anyway im incapable of wanting to ditch you permanently
no subject
but i kind of like it? like. i don't know. you seem kind of chill when you are not driving me crazy and i want to get to know you better but it is kind of impossible when you are doing stuff like this.
so like. i get it? sort of? i am a pretty weird and cagey person sometimes, too, and i think that is probably part of the problem.
and you keep saying things like that and somehow i am sure you are sincere which is the really weird part? but i don't know.
i do not have a good read on people.
and i want to change that.
ok?
so maybe that is actually my own problem, i do not know.
maybe i am doing this wrong?
i don't know. i don't know how to make friends like a normal person anymore and then there is all of this bullshit with people talking about memories and superpowers that i also want to understand.
oh my god never mind this is way too many words.
no subject
you know how to make friends fine
john we could drop you in a room of strangers and i guarantee youd be having a friendly chat with one or all of them in two seconds flat
i mean granted same but its different with you
maybe its skewed a little to the right but you care about people
and i think that tends to be the important thing when it comes to friends
even if you are cagey
which is weird but not so weird
its this thing about you though
the friend thing
its not like youre some incorruptible nice angel but youre a good person
who wants to get to know people
and people respond to that i think
its something i admire
anyway im not avoiding you or the room specifically
and you arent fucking up
so chill
hey did you ever hear as a kid that if you hang upside down long enough youll get smarter bc of the blood going to your head
why are kids the way they are

i think

also maybe not but it was pretty dumb.

no subject
sometimes yes sometimes no
anyway i think im the only one in the trial period
if its already halloween in stores i fail to see why it cant also be christmas
no subject
being human is pretty overrated anyway.
are you?
there are definitely places pushing christmas already. i don't like pumpkin that much anyway so i would be fine blowing past that.
halloween is pretty acceptable though.
no subject
well thats not the word i want to use
but im not gonna use the other so w/e
yeah
youve never been on trial
where the fuck are the christmas stores
i want a candycane
also what the fuck do you mean you dont like pumpkin
do you at least like it in pumpkin spice lattes
no subject
see that is still very strange to me since i have known you for like a week and you've already decided this. then again i sort of decided after the first day and now i am just confusing myself.
wal-mart probably has candy canes out by now? also do you not have normal candy stores here?

at what point does it stop being pumpkin spice and more caramel bullshit though?
