I was at a mall with a child and then they disappeared. Apparently the child was my child or something because I was worried and I went around looking for them. At some point, I ended up getting the help of this man with his son. The man had blond hair, but his kid had brown hair and the kid was around maybe four?
So, I walk around with them, and ...... reply

Maybe you just have really shitty friends if you get this upset over the vibe being wrong.
You shouldn't feel obligated to make your friend have a good vibe and because you didn't have friends you're probably acting like her pet dog around her.
So, imo, your friend is just using you or she's manipulating you. You might not have done something, b...... reply

It's just people projecting who they want to be or how they want to be seen.
I don't like it because it's desperate and self-indulgent in a way that I find kind of pathetic.
Self-insert is a terrible term for it. I'd call it idealized-self-insert or smth idk.
Granted, imo, it doesn't mean it's always bad. Sometimes they can come up with interest...... reply
I hate loud places and loud people.
And I hate consistently inefficient people, or people who purposely do things consistently inefficiently.
And people who purposely do terrible things for themselves are digusting.

ummm so, idk why but I was thinking about it and like, a lot of 'complex' villainess characters - they're complex due to the genre. As a category, they aren't very diverse and idk in doing so that makes them ig not complex as a result.
Like hear me out, if author writes a story about MC becoming the villainess, they aren't going to take the static villainess route from the hero's perspective, that's not going to be a 'good' or ig socially acceptable character would make more sense? So, they have to create the so-called complex character, not because it is complex, but because it's acceptable. They're complexity isn't really complexity as it is formulaic. They don't necessarily even know what makes a character complex, they just have to be able to 'side with the villainess' and that will eventually lead to a supposed complex character with varying motives.
But idk that's not ig real complexity, which I guess is not really complexity at this point (?). Like, I see some people complaining about the genericness of some characters and so on, but like, think about it this way. The author doesn't really have much of a choice in villainess plot. It's easier to make some tragic backstory than to create some sort of deep philosophical ideal as to why they might do so and so even if it's dangerous. Like, imo, the latter would be more jg controversial but more interesting. They can't risk people not agreeing or they just don't think of it. This leads to genericness and furthermore, a lack of ig real complexity... where the characters seem complex but really idk it's not that hard to make.
Umm the set up is already there. The MC is the villainess, thereby they usually automatically have faults. This is especially the case for if it's the villainess returning back in time. Something must have gone wrong and that usually (unless author is really stupid) leads to the necessary flaws. But when you think about it, is that really complex? You have the option to go back in time, the MC's fundamental personality has likely gone under severe reparations, then are those old personality traits still technically applicable as 'flaws'? I mean, yes they still remember but when I tried to consider them separately, idk I found that those fix-it villainess characters are pretty... uncomplex. Beyond regretting certain actions, they're not actually really all that special. I'd even argue that they're pretty uncomplex because now that they are living their second life they only really have 3 maybe 4 modes: regret, happiness at chance to redo things, bravery in face of time line change, and ig the lovey dovey.
Granted not all villainess reincarnation plots do this and it's not fair to say all of them are like this and that's not what I'm saying, but ig a lot of them are tbh, at least from what I've read. They all have the same base structure and idk, it seemed kind of weird to the point where it's not simply a matter of copying an idea.
Of course, I'm not saying your favourite character is dumb or anything, it's just something I thought of ig.
idk I can't sleep and finding a reason as to why so many reincarnation stories have similar character types seemed more interesting.
Clothing stops fitting when they decide to just grow for no reason other than to be annoying.
No matter how you sit you're squishing them if you're short like me; on the table, against the table, literally everywhere... NO the table doesn't go to my waist, it's always perfectly positioned... 'there'.
No matter how you cross your arms you're squishing them. Idk one of my classmates used to prop her boobs up with her arms by crossing them and would lean forward and idk just WHY? That's the only thing she can be proud of huh? Pieces of fat??? Dude it was so disturbing to see because she did it so obviously to prop them up... Like she'd dig them up and so on so forth.
No matter what you do, somehow in some way they get squished and it feels embarrassing... I used to sleep on my face, but now I don't because it just feels weird sometimes, especially if the mattress is hard. Soft mattresses are ok... but not by much. IT'S JUST WEIRD.
Oh my god, like they're depicted as these goldly globes of sex in manga, but they're so annoying irl. Especially with the sizes ig 'advertized' in manga; that'd be a such a pain in the back and everything. Imagine having boobs the size of your face? Just no... How would you wear anything? Do anything? You'd be a perfect human mattress--- Just idk waterbed but boob. Boob-bed.
No, lying on boobs that are larger than a certain size is NOT comfortable and is NOT recommended istg. It's just weird...
idk about man boobs, I don't really find them that attractive. Like, if you're going to sporting something bigger than a c-cup spread over double the area, then alright??? Like, that can't be comfortable... but then I remember that they're not actually fat, but muscle and ohh, they get boobs without the hassle and that's so unfair imo...
Anyway, your thoughts on boobs; manboobs or uhh ig womanboobs?
What's a type of character (or a specific character) that you like in fiction, but when you imagine yourself meeting them, you think you'd really dislike them?
Personally, I really like manipulative characters (fyodor dostoevsky), characters that are said to 'read' people (imayoshi shoichi), or two-faced characters (idk like Mikado Ryuugamine) - but if I met people like them in irl I'd stay away for good reasons.
