Hard Facts from the Fiction Department
A dialectical, fictional foray into the clashing personae of a self-entitled Q*Bert and a perturbed bottle of Perrier.
Q*Bert: @!#?@!
Perrier: Fizz.
(21:58:47) Q*Bert: Is everything alright?
(21:59:40) Perrier: Please stop stalking me online.
(22:01:22) Q*Bert: I'm not stalking you. I have three acounts that I normally go to, I noticed you weren't on EpistemicDuty's buddy list and I was concerned given that we had just had that conversation yesterday. All I wanted to do was to determine what is the matter. If it is because you don't want to talk to me online anymore you could've just told me that.
(22:01:37) Perrier: I don't believe you.
(22:02:03) Q*Bert: there is nothing I can do about that. I"m sorry
(22:02:10) Q*Bert: that you don't trust me
(22:02:14) Perrier: You're being insincere. I thought I could be your friend, but you're obvious obsessed.
(22:02:18) Perrier: obviously
(22:02:40) Q*Bert: how am I being insincere?
(22:02:43) Perrier: No apologies. I'm dead serious.
(22:03:11) Perrier: I thought you'd get the message in a nicer way, but you don't
(22:03:27) Perrier: If I don't want to speak with you right now, then I don't want to.
(22:04:10) Perrier: Changing names and having multiple accounts isn't an intelligent way to abide by my wishes.
(22:04:12) Q*Bert: you have never bolcked me before. And I was understandably concerned given the fact that we had just had that conversation yesterday.
(22:04:21) Perrier: Clearly, it indicates to me that you're stalking me.
(22:04:29) Q*Bert: I have had this s/n since I was 14. Don't be so vain
(22:04:43) Perrier: I blocked you because I don't want to speak with you now.
(22:05:10) Perrier: That doesn't mean I hate you.
(22:05:20) Q*Bert: You are being paranoid. I didn't think you would take my concern this way. I was honestly concerned given the coincidence of you blocking me yesterday. I'm sorry you dont' trust or believe me.
(22:05:36) Q*Bert: after yesterday*
(22:05:51) Perrier: Call me what you want, but talking to you stirs some unpleasant emotions within me.
(22:06:03) Perrier: After yesterday. I blocked you to take some time off.
(22:06:25) Q*Bert: You should have just told me you didn't feel like talking to me, and not do it this way. It's dishonest
(22:06:43) Q*Bert: I will honor your wishes. If that is what you want.
(22:06:57) Q*Bert: Hopefully my consistency of doing that in the future will change your mind about me
(22:06:58) Perrier: Dishonest?
(22:07:04) Perrier: You're being dishonest yourself.
(22:07:11) Perrier: You can't control your emotions.
(22:07:37) Perrier: I was trying to do this as painlessly as possible, but if you want to take it the hard way then,
(22:07:50) Perrier: Go ahead.
(22:07:50) Q*Bert: I just want the clear and direct way.
(22:08:21) Perrier: I don't even know if it really is anymore.
(22:08:27) Perrier: As I can't trust you now.
(22:08:50) Perrier: I'm angry over the fact you tried to contact me with two different names.
(22:09:00) Q*Bert: Like I said, hopefully my future behavior of not contacting you online will show my consistency
(22:09:10) Perrier: I don't want to talk to you in person either now.
(22:09:59) Perrier: This is getting out of hand.
(22:10:18) Q*Bert: If that is what you wish. I'm sorry if my desire for directness must be interpreted as obsessiveness. I don't hate you. But you are making things complicated for yourself.
(22:10:30) Perrier: Then let it be.
(22:10:37) Perrier: At least the complication will make me happier.
(22:11:21) Perrier: goodbye
(22:11:40) Q*Bert: goodbye. You are a good person and I wish you the best.
(22:11:45) Perrier: Likewise.
(22:12:02) Q*Bert: just adjust your definition of "out of hand"
Q*Bert: @!#?@!
