I remember someone recently asked how people personally defined loyalty. My question, I suppose, is a bit different--what's the point to it ( Read more... )

Maybe so, but it's better to be used for good mutual gain than to live in constant distrust of everyone.

sonotahunter June 16 2010, 16:25:32 UTC

In your experience, perhaps. Not in mine.

Then you must live a sad, strange little life, ma'am. I wouldn't be around now if I didn't have loyal friends.

Strange, yes. Sad? No. Little, certainly not.

Then you've never known the necessity of true self-reliance.

I couldn't have said it better myself, Bela.

...Thank you, Julian.

Got that off your chest?

Loyalty's useful the same way anything else is - while you can use it and it can't use you.

[Private] sonotahunter June 23 2010, 05:23:36 UTC

Too right. How have you been keeping, Facilier?

[Private] amagicalmystery June 24 2010, 03:46:00 UTC

Well enough, so far. Missed everyone's little bout with drunkenness - which is a shame, it seemed real amusing.

Because not everyone's bad.. and when you find that one person that is? It made all the trying worth it because you found someone worth being loyal to. Then it becomes strangely natural.

Private sonotahunter June 23 2010, 05:20:07 UTC

Not everyone is bad--but everyone is capable of it. That's part of my point.

Private victimofnoone June 23 2010, 07:32:04 UTC

That makes no sense. Just because everyone is capable of.. eating kiwis doesn't mean every person is going to, or going to like them. Even though the possibility is there, you can't judge based on that. I mean, most people are just trying to get by and then there's like, a few that are complete bastards, but there's also a few that aren't.

Private sonotahunter June 23 2010, 20:23:52 UTC

...You're comparing eating kiwis to betrayal or lies, sweetie. Personal tastes to general human behavior. In the process of getting by, everyone will be a bastard in someone else's eyes--there are no good people. Not really.
