Sandbox Discussions

I haven't been reading the Isra thread, but the Sadde who's talking to Miranda has been acting in ways that would be interesting to throw at a Joker.

Does Pedro want to lizard pants a Sadde? XD

[pedromvilar]

Pedro might or might not want that, but Pedro is not entirely sure what 'lizard pants a Sadde' means!

Well, Bluelantern implied you'd like a Sadde to meet an Aianon. I have done enough "somebody randomly lands on Aianon's island for reasons" sandboxes that I have a verb for them, "lizard pants", as in "maybe we could lizard pants a Sadde" or "one time I lizard pantsed Tisvetaia but it never went anywhere". (The first character to randomly land on Aianon's island for reasons was an Adarin and he was disturbed by Aianon's lack of clothes so Aianon killed a lizard and made shorts out of its skin and then that entire continuity ended up being named Lizard Pants because once I had thought of the phrase it was too hilarious not to use; that is where the verb comes from.)

Ooooh!

Pedro is definitely interested in lizard pantsing a Sadde!

Well then Pedro can IM me at peahenironybath on gmail!

(this third person thing is cracking me up)

Pedro has sent you an invitation on Hangouts but they're not sure if this is what you meant by "IM me."

[Ezra]

this sounds promising

Hangouts is (for this purpose) the same as Google Chat, and this is what is meant by the phrase “IM me”. They are the same backend, but Google mostly replaced Google Chat with Hangouts a while ago. Many people still use the old Google Chat interface because Hangouts has some “features” which actually make some situations worse. It works fine if one person uses the old interface and one uses the new interface, but in the upgrade they removed some features (most notably group chat) from the old interface, so a lot of people (including many glowficcers) are fine with communicating with you using Hangouts only if there are only two people in the conversation.

I really want this to happen.
Sadde and a Joker sounds awesome.

I would like somebody to ask Mr. Sadde some questions about human motivation. He seems to think these questions should be easy to answer, but try to some of the concept of “good person” or the emotions of wanting to be honorable and you see that it is all very difficult to describe. If somebody always lied, deceived, and manipulated other people without thought to other people’s welfare, you might call them a bad person. When asked why, you might say lying is wrong. If asked further, the people on this site might be able to go into some more detail (because it hurts people, for example), but the answers would disagree with other peoples’ answers and from the inside, at least to most people, it mostly feels like lying is wrong.
