Hello everyone, I've got a question for everyone. This is something I've been thinking about for a few weeks now, and I'd like to get your opinions on it, as well as possibly some advice. I know a lot of us have been having those wild hallucinomemories lately, and whoever came up with that word is brilliant. And I know a lot of us have been struggling with them because some of them are outright terrifying. What I want to know is if you saw someone that you knew in your hallucinomemories doing something that scared you, or made you afraid, would that affect how you view them here in Recolle? Is this who they were, who they are, or who they will be again, basically. I know that's a pretty weird question, but I'm not really sure how I feel and it got pretty real for me recently. Any thoughts are appreciated, seriously. Cheers, Pen.

That's an awfully simplistic way of putting things.
Not a bad way, just simple.

I'm not sure it'll be that easy, in the end. But for now you're probably right.

It is too complicated to answer right now.

[buncho]

yeah
bc simple is better
no worries, see?

[mincingminuet]

Hakuna Matata, Mafuyu?

And it is simpler, but that doesn't necessarily make it easier to forget.

[buncho]

thats it!
are you having trouble not thinking of the memory stuff? thats easy too- keep yourself busy and you dont have time to think

[mincingminuet]

Not so easy when you work with computers.

[buncho]

whats wrong w/ computers?

[mincingminuet]

You sit at them, and they often have things to compile.

IE: lots of downtime.

[buncho]

you can play games on the comp while your waiting though

[mincingminuet]

Not with the programs I'm running. I'm a programmer. Compiling destroys CPU usage.

But you've raised a good point and I shouldn't dismiss it just because I'm feeling like a contrarian.

[buncho]

what do you program? games?

[mincingminuet]

All sorts of things, but not games. Mostly websites.

[buncho]

sounds complicated. like you have enough stuff to think about instead of worrying about people who may or may not beat you up

but hey
hey if it makes you feel any better, i bet i can beat up whoever's trying to scare you, if they ever show up

[mincingminuet]

We'll see. hopefully it won't come to that.

I hope they read this, and realize things aren't right, to be honest.

[buncho]

its called being prepared! if you need me, call for me! and if i die, ive got emergency contacts you can call! you dont have to worry at all

and yeah, if whoevers thinking of scaring you is reading this, then they can heck off

[mincingminuet]

Well, I have your number now. I've got an alarm set to go off on my phone that'll send a message to my whole contacts list if I feel threatened.

So, you'll know.

[buncho]

whoa, your super prepared
kinda overkill though- dont you have like a thousand contacts

[mincingminuet]

My father always said it's better to have overkill than not enough kill. My mother said there's no such thing as overkill.

[buncho]

what kind of parents did you have? even mine arent that strict

[mincingminuet]

Mom was a Marine. Dad was in the Army.

[buncho]

oh thats cool
my parents have boring jobs so theyd say stuff like "dont kill!!!"

[mincingminuet]

Yeah they were good people.
But they raised me strictly, and I'm glad for the lessons they gave.
