general

In general, most people I know are (if anything) too desperate to find a gf which is honestly the bigger red flag that they're going to off themselves when no one's looking after getting dumped by Hinge date #6000

okay if the randoms count

then yes 1

if its CORE members

zero

Mini is core

I really think you guys are underselling 5 years

i think

no offense to mini

but I'll take my bet of 5

mini has a higher chance of like

dying

My ruling was if I personally would see their post and know who they are without thinking for more than 2 seconds they count

in an accident

i count people who post actively here as "phijkchu" unless core is clarified

which basically means anyone who posts somewhat regularly

also i do not like meeting new people, i try to end interactions with strangers as quickly as possible

its ~25 imo that I count as active maybe ~40 that are lore relevent

okay exception

if you have a white name still

you're not phijkchu

even if you post sometimes

the white names are the homeless of the server

the refugees

Do you minimize speaking, or just minimize unnecessary speaking

like, if you're at the store, will you just silently hand the cashier your cash and say nothing

or do you mean you just won't small talk about the weather or w/e

The real question is how many will be married to someone who is white

and do you thank the bus driver

i've never ridden a bus, spooky

after i assault the woman i usually dont talk to her after

I thank the bus driver

Fortnite unironically normalized that

it is the norm in Canada before fortnite

Do you thank people in public in general Dialga

i would respond to a cashiers small talk to be polite, but i wont be happy about it

Canadian style

oh ok, thats much better

i will not start the conversation though

I was worried you meant like, at most you'd grunt at people in public

I do not start small talk, but if someone starts it with me I will continue it

although I have just mentioned things to people and inserted myself into their conversations if I am vaguely related to it before

such as if people are talking about a test they finished with their classmates I will just interject if I was proctoring it

Last time i spoke to a stranger though was at the laundromat, and some guy came up to me asking for change for the bus. Unfortunately for him i spent all my change in the laundromat, and fortunately for me this is not chicago/NY/LA so i didnt get stabbed for saying no

Last time I talked to a stranger a woman asked me if I knew when the next bus was coming and I told her what bus tracking app I use

this was last week

you are going to need to learn to start conversations with people if you want to do collaborative research

I know how to talk to people

I just do not talk to people unless I don't need to

~70% of the time

last time a stranger talked to me was some guy in my OS lab yesterday asking who I was because I was talking to somebody he knew while he sat there not saying anything until eventually he left.

only frivolous pointless conversation then

Hey can we have a movie club and watch heated rivalry together

I've got the poll for tomorrow

and when I post it, everyone will know what I just did

the poll will be how many people have you been directly related to the death of

Leg if you somehow guess it, I'm going to strangle myself with a catsnake

no, phew

I mean ig it could be 4-6 but i doubt

I think the funny thing is the who would likely go on a date in the next 5 year barely if at all changes the numbers

i agree with spooky that you guys are underestimating 5 years when most of us are nearing our 30s, i think. but i have no idea what most people here usually get up to irl, so i can't possibly make a guess on that

Says the man raising bees underground

my bees will rule the world, spooky

soon

how much do you think it would cost to pay a random black guy to go to the phijkchu meetup and pretend to be me

If he was already going to be in toronto? Not much

Mind you pirate, we would clock him not being you right away, so you need to send him with a background hum machine and a Rance shirt

he's gonna have an attached fan backpack, rance shirt, squidward crocs, glasses

and he's gonna have a special mission to accomplish

Pirate do not send a black man to commit convention rapes

anyways pirate are we having our meeting today or are we (royal we) doing the meetup meeting today

everything

i only have 3 tiny bubbles left

Okay well if you want to do it, then do them lmfao

we can probably do both today, I assume the meetup meeting will be later

Whatre we meeting about

figuring out what we are actually doing beyond "we are going to anime north", figuring out who all is going, etc

At a broncos bar, will be back in a bit if you're doing stuff today. I'll be free all tomorrow though
