The Hang Out: /jerk

[Corey]

Like strongbad's spine.

Terrible really. About the hangout and all.

[polobunny]

I'm done with this bullshit. I used to enjoy myself here. But now it's all politics. Since when did a long-time Admin need to deffer to Sprung on anything? For that matter, why does anyone on the staff need to?

Mikey goes on about how we're all about being a team, but the reality of the situation is that we all have to bow to Sprung and his desires. He had no more of a right to demote me than he says Cosmic did to make me an Admin in the first place, but hey, that's a point lost on him. Not that he cares. He's just all about doing things the way he wants to do them, and fuck us all.

I'm not angry that I was demoted, but let's call a spade a spade. I'm pissed off that Sprung thinks that he can come in and just arbitrarily reverse everyone else's decisions, even while preaching unity. Fucking hypocritical nonsense.

Bwaha ha ha haaa...
Anyway, you know what I think of that.

[Strongbad]

Like strongbad's spine.

So it will soon have arthritis.

Goddamnit. Wake me up when the Hangout's fun again.

Goddamnit. Wake me up when the Hangout's fun again.

Goodbye.

[Raype]

Thanks, Webster

This is what we call "poor word choice".

Observe as the "sprung" gets a short joke thrown at him.

Keep in touch.

So, when do I bring around the chryo chamber?

[Ahkei]

Look at it this way, they didn't kick you from the staff entirely, and you're basically back where you started. While I understand you're pissed, it could be worse, right?

I don't think he's pissed about himself getting demoted, I think he's pissed at the sort of disrespect against Cosmic.

I meant the dictionary guy, not the little black dude.

[Ahkei]

Thanks, Webster

No worries, Bible.

[polobunny]

To Sprung:

*Knock knock*
-Who's there?
-Les
-Les who?
-Les hear another knock knock joke.

[Corey]

I meant the dictionary guy, not the big black dude.

A matter of perspective. You see everyone that way though...

Here's the thing though, this is the second time I've had my old admin position dangled in front of me like a joke. The first time was allegedly a mistake, but this time it was taken away from me because Sprung can't hang with Cosmic coming in and making a decision without consulting him first. Both times it felt like I was being fucked with, and while it could be worse indeed, I'm still fucking sore about it. Especially when one considers just how hypocritical it was to have it taken away this time around.

Yeah I was sort of a dick about it. Cosmic just thought that with the board being hit by n00bs lately, that I could help out. He gave me back my old admin position so that I'd be in a better position to do so. Well that, and I guess he thought it was about time I got my old position back. I just let Mikey and Sprung's not-so-subtle bitching about the circumstances surrounding my promotion get to me, and implied that had they not fucked up, we wouldn't be here. I'm sorry for that much, but try and see it from my perspective. I was getting shit for no good reason. It's not an excuse, but an explaination. Even so, it's sorta true. Had the ball not been dropped, Cosmic likely wouldn't have felt the need to promote me. And IMO, he's been here long enough that he shouldn't have to ask for anyone's permission. So yeah, this whole thing sucks a cock.

No matter. I'm just gonna take a breather for awhile. I don't think I'm going to be up for moderating anymore though. That's all behind me.
