just flooding this comm with idol boys

[lecturehall]

I'm sure others have tried it on here so forgive me for asking again but... is there a way to permanently discard what we've been sent?

I tried to throw away some clothes but they keep returning. There's also something that was fixed perfectly when it should have remained shattered. (Though that, at least, was an accident.)

[It wasn't an accident at all.]

It's no urgent matter [it really is] just something I'm curious about. I can't imagine being stuck with objects I can never be rid of.

Try burning them.

[lecturehall]

That's against city regulations.

[falsepretentious]

How diligent of you. Even if you ensure that it's a controlled fire?

[lecturehall]

If it's within the realm of the city then the only way to bypass it is with proper government clearance. I'd have to make an event out of it for it to be worth all the paperwork.

[twelfthspark]

You totally should! Invite the rest of the network along to burn their useless junk. It'd be a hit.

[lecturehall]

I

[actually...]

You'd think people would really want that?

[falsepretentious]

I feel that a good percentage of Retrospec users would be willing to contribute to such a bonfire. You would just have to be cautious about how you present the event to the city government. Recall that those without Retrospec are unaware of its existence or the effects on our lives that come with it.

[lecturehall]

I more than aware of that.

[don't patronize him punk]

I may have to see whether it will work or not. Although, even if the items remain maybe it will be cathartic to see them engulfed, if just for a moment.

[falsepretentious]

One has to make sure.

I'm sure that it will be. And it could be a good opportunity to unite those displeased with Retrospec's gifts.

[lecturehall]

Aren't we already united through the app itself?

I suppose a communal event wouldn't be too bad.

[falsepretentious]

In a sense. But this would have a more personal touch, on top of potentially feeling cathartic.

[lecturehall]

Adding a more human connection, so to speak?

[falsepretentious]

That's right. It beats simple venting on the social network.

[lecturehall]

I feel a punching bag might have the same effect.

[falsepretentious]

That doesn't quite have the same flair.

[lecturehall]

Not one for physical activity?

[falsepretentious]

Not to a gratuitous extent.

Beyond that, a bonfire works better as a group activity. Only so many people can strike a single punching bag at the same time. Wouldn't you agree?

[lecturehall]

Where there's a will, there's a way~

But you're right. A bonfire would be much more feasible and sensible. Especially for two people so averse to gratuitous physical activity.

[falsepretentious]

I knew it was only a matter of time until you saw the light of logic.

It can serve extra functions, as well. For instance, we can prepare roasted marshmallows, and perhaps even entire meals, over the bonfire as a symbol of our defiance! Do look into this matter as soon as you can.

[lecturehall]

I will. Shall I let you know of the result?

[falsepretentious]

Of course. I don't expect to be left hanging on this matter!

[lecturehall]

Then it shall be done~

[falsepretentious]

Splendid. As you were.
