Then I suspect you think I am a pleasant person, and I just confirmed it to you. Thank you.
I don’t like Settlers of Catan. I like Life and Candyland, however. And yes, I suppose you did. […] But I was driving us back to Lundegaard, so you effectively had no choice but to mention it or offer such.
No, I don’t. This feels quite bad actually. Am I permitted to ask what I have done to deserve this, or should I not bother.
Margarita. You’re acting like a child, accusing me of things you won’t specify, designating me as the person to take the brunt of your foul mood, arising from reasons unrelated to me. […] This is why I have tried to stay out of your way. I suspected you would react with, well, you say it’s not extreme, but robust negativity.
[…] My sister went to university. I enjoyed going to lectures when meeting her there. It is remarkable how easy it is listen to interesting, intelligent people for free, if you know where to look. […] Used to be easy, I suppose.
No, never. I couldn’t. […] I was expelled from high school. Didn’t like to be in class so I didn’t go, didn’t realize there would be consequences for never going. Hard to find my footing after that.
Is “Axaxaxa” a derisive laugh or a happy laugh? I don’t begrudge you if the former. I only ask because I’ve never seen laughter typed that way before.
I’m sure she didn’t like it. But she was busy, and after a certain age she let me live my own life and make my own mistakes. I got my GED in the end.
[…] Ah, I understand. Cyrillic alphabet. I’m grateful you found that exchange funny, but I would appreciate you not telling anyone that’s what I think of that game. It would be difficult if people thought I hated having fun, on top of whatever else they think about me. […] I suppose I am asking for your help a fourth time.
But that’s easy for you to say. You seem to have no trouble around others, when you feel like being around them. People like you. I don’t maintain score to hold it over you. […] But I will stop mentioning it.
Hm. I see. I just find it hard to believe that you could worry constantly about whether you are being unfair to others and not at the same time expect a sense of fairness in return.
[…] […] […] You had once said to me that you do not care what I believe about you. I suppose I will invoke the same here. Either you believe me or you don’t, but your belief or lack thereof changes nothing for me.
I will only say that life is not fair. There is no point in expecting it to be, and I do not. But that does not mean we should not do what we can to make it fair for others.

[…] Why don’t you like board games?
I did mention it. You may recall that I offered to wash your clothes even.
I wouldn’t call it extreme. Or even disdain, specifically. But good. I hope I am a thorn in your side. Do you like how it feels?

You started it. But I will admit this is an outsized reaction because I am in a foul mood for unrelated reasons.

It could be used either way, depending on context. The same as hahaha in English. I meant it genuinely. I did laugh.

You should not care so much. People will always believe what they want to believe. And I wish you wouldn’t keep score this way.

[…] I don’t know if that’s true. I genuinely don’t. But why do you keep track then?
Continued BB filter, 10/10
I keep track so I do not overburden others. If I ask you for too much help and am unable to rectify the balance, that is not fair to you.
