[ornithologist]

I've taken the liberty of using some points to request a static copy of Wikipedia be added to the network. For those unfamiliar, Wikipedia is an exhaustive collection of factual information compiled and verified by volunteers worldwide. You might consider it a digital version of the library.

For further information, I recommend the Wikipedia article on Wikipedia.

Notable features include:
    (1) It is uneditable to maintain the integrity of the source information.
    (2) You may, however, leave comments and participate in resulting forum-like conversations.
    (3) All pages with information possibly pertaining to a resident's personal history have been removed to ensure privacy.
    (4) This is a representative snapshot of Wikipedia from our collective source worlds where that is an internet-capable Earth. I'm told it's circa 2025 CE.

I do not intend to offer assistance in utilizing this resource, but the companion bots have a digital literacy module and should be able to serve in that capacity if anyone has a need.

Comments are left open for you to discuss amongst yourselves as desired. I will not be responding.

[ ooc: Feel free to start threads here about this development, or link to a Wikipedia page and indicate what your character would leave as a comment on it! Reply to one another! Do this any time, not just in this post! Snidely link others to Wiki articles instead of answering them sometimes! Note #3 is meant to indicate that fourth-walling is impossible from this.

Also, Harold wanted to disable comments, but Aurora disabled the disabling comments feature he tried to add. :( Anyway: Merry Christmas, Etraya! ]

Perhaps. Regardless, I still fail to see how your discovery relates to our present circumstances.

A personal invitation. How kind of you.

As for your suggestion.

damn dude
just say you hate bread and move on

[sweetmilk]

Thank you for the perfect example of 'dry texting'. I can only assume that is your intention.

[rowd]

i have no idea what that means but you're welcome anyway

[sweetmilk]

Should you wish to learn.

[rowd]

that's way too long to listen to

[sweetmilk]

Then I will pull the most relevant sentence.

"Dry texting is the habit or practice of writing short text messages... and refers to people who don't add much to conversations."

[rowd]

ouch
it was more meant to be a "fuck off and leave jay alone" but damn you're spicy

[sweetmilk]

I was not aware he employed others to fight his battles for him.

The screening process must not be rigorous.

[rowd]

why would he? he's more than smart enough to handle his own fights if he felt like it
you're just being a real bitch over bread and i, as someone who would eat a whole ass loaf at once, am both bored enough to step in and a big enough dumbass to skip over how it probably isn't about the bread and is instead just you finding the first stupid thing to be snarky over

are you pent up, is that it?
it isn't that hard to find someone to fuck around with or fuck up here
i can help

[sweetmilk]

And yet he is not.

Now admittedly, this conversation is a waste of my time, but you are correct in one part at least; it is not about the bread, it is about determining limits.

I require neither. Direct that offer elsewhere.

[rowd]

you want a toast sandwich?
i've got one

[sweetmilk]

I have had enough of them in my lifetime to not want to waste the energy processing it when I could use it for something else.

[rowd]

do you hate food?
???

[sweetmilk]

No.

[rowd]

feisty

same thing

[hexcope]

It doesn't need to. It's for fun.

[sweetmilk]

I believe you were searching for this.

[hexcope]

Yes, I'm psychologically deriving pleasure from the concept of a sandwich that consists of bread with bread in the middle.

[sweetmilk]

Are you also entertained by loose threads and refracting light?

[hexcope]

Frequently.

[Now he's just fucking with him.]

[sweetmilk]

The world must be full of so many surprises for you every day.

[hexcope]

It's called stopping to smell the roses. Find some whimsy.

[sweetmilk]

If I find it, I will be sure to pass it along to someone who might need it.

[hexcope]

Ha ha.
