(... >< Damn you, you small town. >< )
Ah, Renaissance Festival sounds so fun! I wish I was there.
Eh?!? Renaissance Festival!!!! >< Sounds rather interesting, care to elaborate?
Ah, good one. I seem to have a love-hate relationship with myself, but I guess a mirror would have to do for now.
... Hm? Loved ones? *ponders deeply* Who?
>< Hmmm... I evidently don't have much time to spare... ...
Ah, thank you, hehe. Au contraire, I am absolutely miserable at writing novels/ stories... ... I guess I haven't arrived at my apex of creativity and output. Hehe.
(Hehe, his voice is smooth :3) Concerning writing, I enjoy impromptu writing, essays (if the topic is worth writing about), and poetry. Of course, such output only comes with a higher amount of energy than usual and/or a motivating cause. How about you?
Oh, by the way, I am right now trying to submit an entry to a free-verse poetry contest with cash prizes, but I haven't been in the mood to write anything remotely decent. ... ><
>< Hmmm... In compensation, here is another wonderfully random gift!

Personal comments:
1) His voice sounds rather smooth and wonderful.
2) His face reminds me of Einstein, oddly.
3) I am quite interested by Tip #6.
Hehe.
Hmmm... I thought only boats were referred to with a feminine pronoun.
.... Hey! You're too young to start drinking!!!
.... ..... >< *hands over a Guinness beer *
Being agreeable doesn't always mean that you are right... But this time, you assumption seems to be correct! Bravo!
That's agreeable.
Ah, true. Perhaps honesty is just one of the parts required to produce a morally righteous person... .... But, a good person can still exists even if they are not honest all the time...
Hmmm... Do you think honesty makes you more morally righteous?
To be quite honest, I don't know what to say now... .... ... ....
Ehhh!?! !!!! !!! ... Hmmm, I must've misunderstood the complete message. .... But it's all your fault!!! >.< *growl* ... ... ... ....
(Hehe... Thinks to herself, "Wouldn't it be interesting if I forced Stoic-kun to apologize to me? Hehe.
)
Geez. -- . -- Don't be offended already... ... (Hmmm... how should I respond, eh?) To be honest, our conversation has had its' ups and downs, so if you or I become boring, it shouldn't be a shock to the opposing conversationalist. And, I do enjoy your company...
... ....
Hehe. I guess INTPs share this similar trait... I am not too happy with hugs or high fives, how awkward.
Here's an update on my boring life! I went to the mall with an indecisive and introverted acquaintance. ... Well, it became rather boring and I soon gave up creating new chat topics after several minutes. ... *yawn* I am tired now. :3
Are you allergic to mild physical contact?
Poor you. *pat pat*
Hmmm... Assuming you have watched an episode of Hetalia, do you have any comments so far?
(... Welcome, Stoic-kun.)
Hehe. Socializing can be quite awkward. Nonetheless, glad you are back. And while you were gone, I watched all the episodes of "Hetalia", which is a very silly and odd anime series.
In addition to this, I made a little cube-like toy out of paper and tape. It only brought a small moment of joy.
(Bienvenue, Stoic-kun!)
Oi, wish you luck x 2.
Hmmm... Death Note is quite a popular one. I should check into that. And no, I don't exactly have any manga to "recommend" because the one I am reading/ watching right now will only disgust you in a grotesque manner. .....
Meh, I'll tell you anyways, 'Vampire Knight', a shojo manga. Hehe. It is not very close to the Twilight series, but it is technically about vampire social/ cultural affairs along with a dark, unorganized love plot line. Plus, one of the characters on there is quite visually appealing. >< (Kaname Kuran-sama)
Since you will probably be reading this when you get back, for the sake of this conversation's well-being, fill me in!
Eh? ... What a useless threat, Mr. Stoic; I will most definitely come up with the most interesting topic. Hehe. Anime/ Manga! Do you watch/ read any that is worth mentioning?
Ah, family reunions is quite dreadful, I wish you best of luck. Fortunately, I don't have a multitude of relatives and my family has made some enemies withing the clan. Hehe.
Hmm... Interesting... I am still not entirely sure, unfortunately, of my own philosophy of life, but as I've said, I'll think of something!
..............
Ah, Mr. Stoic Beverage, I am afraid this conversation is fading into a senseless and boring rambling all because of this post. Perhaps you may think of something that will boost this conversation from its' monotonous life?
Hehe. (Accidentally typed the whole previous post as one my of my visitor messages. ><)
Hmmm... I understand (more) now but I don't exactly accept. I believe that life must have some emotion of happiness and sadness, but I don't have anything to support it. *sigh*...
Ah, I shall think of something!
By the way, what is your point of view towards stoicism? When you say how "accomplishing a wanted task brings not joy, but the knowledge that it has been done", does it not go against your "Action-Value" system, which you explained in previous comments, hmmm?
Aha!!! I might have found the key point that I have been missing the whole time!!!
Quoting Wikipedia: ." One must therefore strive to be free of the passions, bearing in mind that the ancient meaning of 'passion' was "anguish" or "suffering".
Perhaps this is key to my misunderstaning? Hmmm?
(Congrats. The longest visitor message yet!)
So basically, to get rid of grief, you must get rid of joy also. I understand that already, but "to find peace and clarity in logic"; if you value and delight in the pursuit of logic, then don't you also find joy in logic also? To find peace, is it not to find contentment/ joy/ How can you not feel joy when you are at peace or at a clarity of mind? Thus, are we not back to square one?
(Hmmm... There must be a major point I am not getting... ) *sigh*
Eh?!? Me??? ... ... ... Let us discuss stoicism. Just after reading about it on wikipedia, I must say I don't exactly agree with his "philosophy". It claims that people should be "free of passion, unmoved by joy and grief." Would that not be an absolutely boring life? To have no passion whatsoever for anything? Please elaborate or comment.
Hmmm. I guess I can be quite sociable too, but I just have not made the effort to be. Opposing your last statement, the masses show a sort of apathy towards me.
Hmmm... interesting, interesting. *strokes fake beard* Funny, I still find school to be quite entertaining and mildly enjoyable. Perhaps that is because I lack an interesting life?
To specify further, does "others" refer to anybody/ anthing but you? Or does it refer to just other humans?
Assuming that you will value higher in the actions that bring yourself/ others pleasure, are you willing to perform an action that may cost you pain but others pleasure?
All in all, I find this "philosophy" to be a pretty good way to evaluate actions, but a flawed way to "select" which actions are more worthier to perform. (... Am I making sense at all???
)
What an interesting list, Mr. Stoic Beverage. In no specific order: writing random thoughts down, music making at the piano/ with the harmonica/ with the flute, Guitar Hero!, going through different websites in my 'Favourites' list. Perhaps there may be more, but I am not in a mood to list them anymore.
Ah, *ding ding ding*, time for a new topic! You pick, since I am indecisive.
As for myself, I don't have much to look forward to. *ssiiiggghhhh* Life is unfortunately boring. So, what do you do when you are bored?
Hehe. Pomegranates are quite decent, indeed. >< How's life?
Fine actually! wbu?
Ello Mr. Stoic!
Ah, absolutely miserable. Food: quite minimally rationed out. Bed: An unfinished wooden bunk with an infinity of protruding splinters. Environment: Filled with friendly people who constantly ask you questions of which you have already answered. Desert-like, with no trees whatsoever. Sandy, very sandy. Sure glad I am back!
Why, what a coincidence! Your petty imagination just happened to be the very reality. Tut tut. Anyways... I have returned alive and well from camp! Whoot!
Ah, back to reality so sudden? Hehe, anyways, about 5 days; so I shall be back on Friday.... .... *sigh* Adios, Mr. Stoic Beverage. "Farewell, but not goodbye."
While Sebastien and Kitsune-sama is at their chess game, Nocturne comments on how she will be attending a religious camp in a few days. She sighs somewhat blatantly and continues to look at the surrounding landscape.
Kitsune-sama congragulates Sebastien on his psychic mind-reading and agrees readily to a game of chess.
>< (Hmmm... intersting.... .... ) Note: Kitsune-sama has no spine, technically, because he is made of flames. The flames shifts into the formation of a fox. Therefore, as the katana-shaped element hits him, he appears to be unharmed and in perfect condition. ....
Ah, damn. Kitsune-sama morphs into a giant flaming bat and whiffs the blob of metal into the farthest corner of space, where a magical black hole swallows it completely. It becomes nothing, both mentally and physically. Nocturne comes and gives Stoic Beverage a pat on the shoulder, just to be a good sport. Hehe.
Kya?!? (It's Sephiroth the II!!!) Kitsune-sama (Mr. Fox) laughs coldly at his pathetic foe. Belonging to the element of fire, Kitsune throws himself upon the sword and engulfs it with flames, melting the sword at 1535 degrees Celsius. Hehe. Kitsune-sama smiles.
(Excuse me for the late reply, I literally couldn't get onto the forum, :3 )
OOoohhh. Sebastien is a ninja now, eh? Well, my fox daemon/ animagus will certainly kick its (Sebastien's) butt. (metaphorically, of course.)
Hehe.
Your two consciences seems to have an effect on you. Hehe.
I have absolutely no idea, either. This occurrence reminds me of a saying "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me." Anyways...
For the fun of it, I will just blame you.
"Tsk, tsk, Stoic Beverage! Did you just made me get a moderation from the forum?!?", says Nocturne. -
