Lucid Red Herring
Dear Princess Molestia
You're trying too hard to be dumb.

Yes, it is ironic that while he was attempting to call someone stupid he makes a critical language mistake that you learn before the age of 10.

If you have issues with grammar then you should be making the attempt to fix them. When I don't know the rule to something I go look it up and try to apply it.

English being his second language doesn't matter. If he's dumb enough to not accept that he ******** up and correct his mistake, then he's an idiot. Intelligent people fix their mistakes and generally have a bit of humility. He's destined to be a failure.

The ability to communicate, which includes grammar, is in large how we perceive intelligence. If you don't want to believe that, that's fine, you can keep believing that the world is a square or some s**t too.

I'm not searching for perfect grammar though. I already explained why I posted what I did, and you decided to ignore it, because you know better.


I'm smart. I'm the smartest girl on the whoooooole playground!
I'm soooooooo smart because I can spell all the words in the English dictionary and yooooouuuu can't!

All of you kids should just listen to me, because I'm gonna go places because I can spell on the internet and yoooooou can't!

I am the princess now. I'm better than all of you!

I tried to leave it alone, but I had to fix this one too.


Coolest guy in the world.

You know guys.

I first got to know molestia when she called me out on some dumb s**t that didn't matter. At first, I thought what you guys are thinking. Why the ******** is this b***h talking to me? However, I went against my initial reaction and decided rather than verbally slapping her around for bothering me with some s**t that didn't matter. I decided to be the bigger man and say

'You know what. Thanks for pointing that out. I'll watch out for that next time.'

and you know, I don't think Molestia is used to that because most people don't have time for that kind of bullshit. So through that Molestia and I got to become good friends. I'm not about to say everyone is wrong, at least not entirely.

Molestia at her core, i've found, is a teacher. This is a fault but it is also an integral part of who she is. What Molestia, and I talked to her about this over AIM, needs to learn that while there is nothing wrong with pointing out mistakes you have to be careful on how you do so and the way you often do so.

I honestly don't think Molestia's desire is simply to lord her intelligence over others or to 'win by being right'. I think she genuinely means to help people correct what she thinks are mistakes. I think what she has to work on is not being in the negative so often and to be even handed.

I can't blame everyone for hating Molestia, she comes off as someone who always has to be right, an intellectual bully, and generally a troll. However I always try to see the good in people...

For example, I would defend Vintrict's dumb a** for years, but eventually I realized everyone was right.

Molestia is frustrated because no one wants to listen to her. Nobody ever accepts anything she says right or wrong. The reason nobody listens to her is because she is always in the negative and so it makes her opinions seem invalid because "Molestia is just gonna s**t on everything"

If she wants people to listen to her, because she honestly likes seeing people improve as any teacher would, she is gonna have to start giving props where props are do and being polite about suggestions to others.

She also needs to learn how to better pick her battles. Some mistakes may not be worth correcting or even identifying.

Though, I think she at her core is nicer than her exterior.

Ah I see it clearly now, Herring has obviously been watching Molestia from afar, waiting for the moment to approach such a glistening orb of spiteful rage. Though the high and mighty Molestia thought herself better than falling for such a street rat, though this changed once "The Accident" happened, Molestia was knocked off her high seat, her throne toppled by the people she had thought she could rule over. At her lowest point, Molestia's only option was to seek refuge with someone she knew. Herring saw his chance, he welcomed Molestia into his home and she begrudgingly accepted, expecting her every whim to be met. Unfortunatly she had been sadly mistaken as Herring would not have it, forcing her to learn on her own the once high and mighty ruler would now have to learn a commoners trade in order to survive.

Will love bloom in this heart wrenching tale of survival?

LMAO! I died. I might be done now!

You wanna know how to see the good in someone?
Stop enabling them to continue to be a ******** up thinking it's okay to be condescending, arrogant, ignorant, or whatever their deficiency might be.

You put that person in a situation where they're forced to think about themselves and their actions. Or, at the VERY least, you help this person to understand that it's not okay to act the way they're acting around you.

Now pass me yo bud *****...

From my point of view, she is just trying to show off. If she is really trying to teach people, she definitely needs to learn how to do so in a way that doesn't antagonize others.

She is arguing over grammar, on the Internet. With someone who could care less, besides the enjoyment of a good troll getting what is coming.

This argument is dumb as s**t, but to be fair, it probably isn't taking Molestia that long to write up her posts.

She's trained in a similar discipline as I am (English for her, History for me) where producing huge heaps of information to construct and present an argument takes very little time because we're taught to do it. We don't have to sit and think or take time to make an argument.. it just kinda happens because our disciplines center around developing an argument and it becomes second nature to us.

That's why I write so much. None of the posts I've written in any argument take more than a few minutes to write no matter the length or complexity; it's become ingrained in my way of thinking to be able to provide an argument or line of reasoning on a topic at the snap of a finger, because I've had to do it for years when a professor points at me randomly and goes "Explain the importance of the Battle of Tours" or "Explain the primary allegory of Dante's Divine Comedy." You do it so much that it becomes natural.

The biggest difference between Molestia and I is delivery, I guess. I'm maybe a little less likely to nitpick in favor of focusing on what I think is the big picture, and my fuse is a little longer before I'm pushed into being insulting, although even our manner of BEING insulting is different. She's condescending, I'm just hyper-aggressive.

Generally I'm gonna try to be civil with everyone for the purpose of building a sense of community. Note that I have no problem pointing out peoples problems but if you do right as well, I'm gonna give you props for it. Clearly molestia is having some issues interacting with this community.

However I'll work with people unless they just totally rip their tail with me and I can't really work with them any more. However, overall I think we should work like a community...
