That's one of those things you just have to trust. Sometimes you can see it in others' eyes.

@Techspert

Thank you. ... Thank you.

*On the other side, we find ourselves on a very small, yet very beautiful tropical island. The water is clean and the flora looks healthy. In front of us is what looks like a large stone ziggurat*

@Valiance

How sacred.

"You can't make friends on the internet."

@Valiance

this is what people say when they ask who my best friends are and I tell them
it is superbly lame

*Smiles*
And the truth.

@Techspert

How do I know?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by whizzball1>

I just mean that people love you for you.

@Techspert

That's... a concept.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by whizzball1>

Do you think that love leads to pride?

@Techspert

I... suppose if you put it that way, no. I just thought you meant in terms of "oh, they love me for my amazing jokes and my endearing eccentricity".

*shakes my head as if to get rid of a thought.* Makes sense.

@Darlit Glitch

Not dollars.

<Snipped quote by whizzball1>

Oh, come now. It's certainly true.

@Techspert

But if I think that way--well, actually, no matter how prideful I get about it I'd still act in exactly the same way, so I suppose it doesn't matter whether I think people love me and my antics or not.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by whizzball1>

Good! I'll bet plenty love you too.

@Techspert

Hah, I wouldn't go that far.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by whizzball1>

It all works out in the end, though.

@Techspert

It does. Nobody hates me yet.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by whizzball1>

Absurd can be uplifting.

@Techspert

It seems to be. If it were endlessly grating I would stop. I do have trouble discerning when not to be absurd, however.

the second one

@Darlit Glitch

thank you for the clarification
