My Friends and Family!

[FacetiousPersona]

I stole the pictures from their Facebook profiles, but I do not think they will mind.

This is my sister:

She is a whore, but perhaps it is acceptable due to her MBTI type (ESFP).

Here is my best friend, Beth:

Awesome ISFJ.

The one in the middle is another friend, Elizabeth:

Definite ESFJ

This is a picture of Verity, a close friend of mine:

Adorable ISFP that everyone loves. Excellent photographer.

I have a picture of my mall buddy, Amy:

Certain ESTJ

Here we have a picture of Samantha, a long-term friend:

Stereotypical ENFP.

This is my sports buddy:

ESFP.

 

[FusionKnight]

... oooooooookay....

 

[bdubs]

Hehe, it kind of begs the question doesn't it? Why did you make this thread face? Would you like us to join in and share photos of our friends or did you simply want to give us another hint into your complex inner workings by sharing this tidbit with us? Maybe another reason entirely?

 

[PhillyFanWA]

Hopefully they're real and not made up.

 

[Fukyo]

I think I will post random pictures of people I find on the net and pretend they are my family and friends too.

No, that would be rather weird of you.

I have a question: Why is everyone you know good looking?

 

[FacetiousPersona]

I have a question: Why is everyone you know good looking?

I'm very superficial.

 

[Reverse Transcriptase]

I stole the pictures from their Facebook profiles, but I do not think they will mind.

Facebook doesn't have pictures that are that high-quality.

Not to mention that all of the files names are number numbers long, which is characteristic of images posted to *chan. If you download photos directly from facebook the filename starts with 'n'.

Fail! You have no friends, enjoy your 4chan.

Either way Verity is attractive in an emo way.

I name all of my files like this. It's for all of my pictures to be organized together in the manner I decide. Examine how they are all ordered. I'll take pictures of their Facebook profiles if you're this paranoid and blank out their names.

 

[Kidege]

IMHO they're real. They have this homogeneous look that's hard to fake. That, or she took them all from the same site :P

I'll provide evidence when I'm not too lazy to disprove those disagreeing. It should display how they are close-minded when it involves me.

 

[Weliddryn]

Where is your brother?

 

[FacetiousPersona]

Where is your brother?

He does not take pictures of himself, and no one takes photographs of him.

 

[Weliddryn]

Is the same true with all males of your family and friends?

 

[FacetiousPersona]

Is the same true with all males of your family and friends?

I only have female friends.

Oh, that's how you order your files? Funny! I found this picture on the interwebs, it's using a similar 13-digit numbering scheme. Maybe it's someone you know?

Also, you still didn't address why the pictures weren't facebook-quality. Comeon! One of the principles of Go (a chinese board game) is that you should always assume that your opponent is able to see all the tricky moves that you see. The least you could do is upload their "friends & family" to facebook and then download them again.
Surrender!

Go and upload these pictures to Facebook. The quality will remain the same or only be changed slightly through the process.

Also, I use 4Chan, correct, and this is the reason for the specific system that I use. I'm too lazy to rename each 4Chan picture and simply rename the pictures I download from other sites (far fewer). It seemed logical to me at the time.

 

[echoplex]

Unfortunately, my friends and family have facial flaws and are not models. However, I'm from the south, so that might explain that.

 

[Da Blob]

Ah F. P.,
Here you are seemingly trying to turn over a new leaf and reveal that you too
are a human being - yet you are met with cynicism?

Well, don't give up, proving one's humanity is often a difficult ask...(?)

Would shooting an asshole be proving my humanity?

Unfortunately it is not that easy (or even gratifying, perhaps)

I uploaded it to facebook and then reposted it. You can try it too if you like. But you didn't get these from facebook, they're either too large or not high enough quality. Sorry bub.

You must be pretty lonely.

 

[Seducer of the Homeless]

Gotta say this Thread creaped me out a little....

You must have faked this as I am not lying. Show screenshots of you doing it to everyone or record a video. You will not due to we both know you are lying. It's ironic how you're lying to disprove a 'lie'.

 

[Reverse Transcriptase]

Don't have to show that evidence (not to mention it could be fabricated anyway). I can just reference the facebook maximum image size.
http://wiki.developers.facebook.com/index.php/Photos.upload

The largest dimension should be at most 604 pixels (the largest display size Facebook supports).

 

[echoplex]

Maybe the Facebook part was a lie, but the pics really are hir friends. Seriously, I really want to believe this for some weird reason.

 

[FacetiousPersona]

I'll acknowledge this to play his game.

OK, it's my turn to inquire. Why did you notice the pattern within the saved images? You must have saved a picture or clicked the properties of the images to notice. The following possibilities seem likely. Did you:

A - Save the picture of Verity due to your liking of her appearance, which is rather creepy.

B - Decide to examine them in a search for flaws to attack me. I'm fine with this, and I do not care much. If this possible outcome bothered me, I would have taken precautions. Also, search for flaws enough in someone's posts and you will inevitably find them. You could probably find worst ones in others', but they may be less obvious, considering they'll care for their image/reputation on this forum.

If neither of these are true or nearly true, what?

 

[Da Blob]

Sorry for interrupting again, but this whole thread illustrate one of the dilemmas and frustrations of life. I can't even prove that I exist and neither can any one else. The idea of proving relationships to an unproven self is really an effort in futility.

TBH I have tried to save images off facebook before and notice the sudden decrease of quality. So I'm sure when you said something about that it raised up red flags. I didn't want to call you out because to be honest I really don't care one way or the other. It's the internet, who knows what's going on.

 

[FacetiousPersona]

The truth is important.

 

[Reverse Transcriptase]

 

[Carinthian]

The truth isn't important if it doesn't involve me in any way... I'd tap that. :3

 

[FacetiousPersona]

Answer my inquiry.

 

[Weliddryn]

The truth is important.

The truth is important... and yet, you lie.

 

[FacetiousPersona]

The truth is important... and yet, you lie.

It is not necessarily my goal to reveal the truth or ensure all is unveiled. Life and the environment are important to many people, but they contradict how they value it through actions frequently.

You speak of the importance of truth, often, even expressing criticism for this forum wishing to censor things. And yet, you lie and deceive constantly. So, why do you criticize others about "truth" when you lie so often?

Content being censored and an individual lying are rather different. Am I suppressing an individual's freedom with my lying and deceit? No, but I am misleading their quest for the truth, perhaps. This may hinder their ability to discern a fact, but it does not limit them through an official restriction. Their capacity to personally continue searching for the truth through my comments remains, and I am not forbidding them to continue doing this with a threat of a punishment or consequence. Have people not opposing my 'truth' on this forum without being stopped? I am not a dictator that prohibits any disagreement with the threat of death.

I do not corrupt anyone's freedom to express themselves (maybe in a truth sense, of course, but they can oppose this) or take action. It is possible for peope to oppose me and challenge any truths that I bring. The truths are minor, in my opinion, and should not be much important to anyone's critical thinking. Do my lies or deceit impair anyone significantly? I hope not. Would admins censoring content impede the range of our discussion and extent of our thinking? I think this is probable.

The admins are in an position of responsibility, too, and are expected to maintain a reputation of sincerity for other people to have faith in them. My reputation is an individual's, not an authority's. Yes, I care for truth, but there are different forms of truth. The ones that I manipulate are trivial in nature, and very petty in contrast to huge truths which form reality itself. Yes, I believe that there are different values to truth, and I am able to subjectively gauge the value of each one I encounter as a human.


Categorizing truths and actions in essence as one is easy, but it is not this simple. Rape and consented sex are the same in principle when you consider they both contain the act of sex, but there are obvious differences which separate the acts. It's the same with people viewing morals through white and black only. There are shades; differences through variables.

Do I oppose authority that restrains people severely? Yes. It is freedom. Do I oppose people that personally lie and deceive? Maybe if it is interesting, but my motive is not from a strong resentment of insincerity. Lies are all around and impossible to prevent all of the time. I am sure that you have lied in the past, but opposed lying when it is suitable for your purpose or circumstance. What I oppose is quite different to what I do overall. Simplifying them could provide similarities, but they are both complex acts which evidently differ.

Thank you for your reply. Though it may have been an annoyance, this provides good insight as to your views on the subject of lying, which is something that many seem to dislike on this forum.

 

[Oblivious]

I liked all of those pictures, does that make me creepy? D:

 

[Dissident]

Good post FP. I want to add a different aspect to this. Certain kinds of interaction between people require trust, mostly when sharing personal deep feelings and ideas which puts you in a vulnerable position. In order to do it it's natural to want some kind of evidence to support the idea that the trust that is being put in others by sharing true personal things will not be betrayed. One of those pieces of evidence is honesty on other's part (which, granted, can't really be known for sure, but I think can be deduced with reasonable degree of certainly if you pay attention), so by constantly lying you limit the kind of interactions that others are willing to have with you. Maybe you don't care about those (maybe you do, I guess you must have some level of interest in the members of the forum given the ammount of time you spend here), but I think you should consider the possibility that what you are missing is something valuable.

 

[loveofreason]

Both Face's and Dissident's posts are insightful.

But I will take Face to task over the analogy used and what it betrays.

Rape and consensual sex are not the same in principle. There are the same mechanics; same in procedure. One represents the principle of violation, the other represents the principle of mutual enjoyment.

Not so very different in how your approach to this forum is being perceived and experienced by the majority of members here. Most see your deceit as violation (of trust) whereas the same deceitful mechanics executed by other members is perceived as mutual enjoyment.

Not that I deny you have found at least one willing partner here.

 

[Red Mage]

Are any of them single?

Trust is a precarious thing, especially when it is over the internet. Anything could be a lie, and how would you ever really know? Trust is something so hard to reach, between individuals, and this place seems to have been a sanctuary for many here- a place where you can finally trust someone and expect that they care. When a person lies and deceives, they could, of course, be simply defending their own privacy, which is completely in their rights. It does, however, effect other aspects of what goes on around a person. Lying and deceiving is regarded, often times with fear or dislike, and reasonably so. It goes back to fearing what you do not know and- what's worse- fearing your vulnerability to the person who lies. This will, of course, limit peaceful interactions with others. It can lead, even, to outright hostility. People will feel compelled to find any small mistake about the person in question (the person who lies) and put forth an effort to bring them down, perhaps to feel more secure about themselves and to raise their ego in the process. This is a natural enough reaction. This must become expected for the person lying, and they must be willing to accept those consequences because the consequences will happen. The same could be said with those who tell the truth. You tell the truth, there will be consequences. They are unavoidable. One should not be surprised that when they tell only the truth and open themselves up, that something negative will happen.

Yes, that little bit of play that gives meaning, life, the universe, the capacity to evolve. We would be lost without it.

 

[meshram.alok]

Argh. I'm too familiar with this ENFP trait. Face here is just trying to introduce us to the most important people in her life, the ones who've made her feel required.

This is something my ENFP friend does too. She blogs about the people in her life, how they've changed her and how they mean a lot to her. (I thought about giving links, but I know she'll get mad about it.)

Of course, when I looked at it the first time, I thought this was being overly dramatic and weak. I now know: this is her life. That is how she is.


Anyways, fake or not, interesting pics. Especially the clarity and good resolution.

And of course, the pretty faces.

P.S. @ Face: How did you come to know about their MBTI types? (Facebook?)

My friend abhors the idea of analysing people in this way.

 

[brain enclosed in flesh]

You know, I think everyone is just jealous because we'd all like to have mall buddies and sports buddies. Admit it, people.

I don't care whether they're authentic or not. It's your life Face, not mine, and I support you. Is that what British people look like? England is way more like southern California than I thought.
