You clearly have no sense of the aforementioned context. Since your intelligent quotient is borderline mentally impaired, I'll elaborate.

I stated you had a fetish for a BYOND user. You then stated he's the reason you came back to BYOND. I then stated no ones cares. No one cares that you came back for that reason, especially not I. You then proceeded to say that I care because I commented. Fact, I care enough about correcting/responding to you, to make you look stupid. Simply because you are.

Do I care about you coming back to BYOND because of some idiot that matches you in intelligence? No, not in the slightest. Do I care enough to embarrass you and point out that no one cares about you and your Valentine's Day crush, Tenkichi? Yes, most certainly.

You're terrible at this game.

What's bad is people are conditioned into believing that there IS something bad or wrong with you if you DON'T celebrate birthdays.

This has always been a point of contention between the wife and I. I really don't like celebrating my birthday. Though I thoroughly enjoy giving gifts, I really dislike receiving gifts.

In the end, the kids and the wife do get gifts for me and derive much enjoyment out of it -- that's alright by me.

People are conditioned into believing they deserve something on their birthday. The fact is, we don't. But society teaches people that they do, and so when they don't receive something, they start making judgments on those people and conflict begins.

You hit on the most important aspect about this: the ostracization that occurs with non-conformity.

Just remember that this extends far beyond holidays, but many other things like politics, religion... fandom of Anime ;).

I love receiving gifts provided I like what the gift is.

Whoever doesn't like gifts is obviously an idiot. What I'm not very fond of is when somebody buys me a gift, and I'm inclined to send back another one. This can be a gift from a friend, girlfriend, but not from any parents.

My parents owe me everything, and the reason for this is because they brought me here on planet of which I didn't want to be apart of.

Buying a gift from somebody is really annoying, considering you don't know what they'll like, and your expectations are big. Somebody of my salary can't afford cool diamond or platinum jewelry.

Lawl. Your parents gave you life, took care of you, fed you, gave you somewhere to live, took you to the doctor, made sure you got an education, protected you, and they owe YOU? Are you insane?

If anything, on our birthdays, we should be the ones handing out gifts to the people that have been providing and taking care of us. Not demanding things from everyone around us.

What they did is their job for giving birth to me. If they ever refused, I'd have no problem taking their lives away from them.

The nihilism is overwhelming. Seek help, Krystal.

Yeah, people shouldn't be compelled to do so just because it's a holiday, they should do it because they want to. Plus it doesn't even have to be on a certain day. It can be any day.

Rather than me seeking help for my beliefs that can't be changed. Why don't we settle this in Wesnoth.

I challenge you to a DBZ rip. If I win, you repent, buy your parents gifts, tell them you love them and go see a psychiatrist. If I lose, you just need to go see a psychologist. Deal?

Same stakes, with the exception of when you lose, you have to go live in a pond. But on Wesnoth.

I'm afraid that I already live in a pond, so the deal is off.

No, the purpose of the bet is that you're currently not living up to your reputation. We all know you're some fat nerd behind a desk and that you would drown if you even attempted to live there.

Fling more mud, you two. The wrestling is making me all hot and bothered.
