Been awhile. Howdy.

Haven't posted in a long time. Lots of reasons for that. Biggest has to be a girl who entered my life shortly after my last blog entry here. I made a private blog not long after then just to try and figure out what was going on in my own head, and after she continually lied and deceived me, I just up and deleted it. Never got around to re-blogging again.

Only reason I'm drawn back here again today is a post of mine about a year and a half ago describing the situation that lead to my disillusionment with another student here on campus, and that guy (who has since graduated and moved up North) just now responded to it with the typical internet tough-guy "Cool story" mantra.

I wonder what would ever drive someone to comment on something a year and a half old on the internet, except maybe like a YouTube video describing how-to something. I've moved on. I assumed this guy moved on. I know for a fact he read it back when it was first published by way of his ex-girlfriend linking him the article.

Grudges are such a waste of time. This is the second time someone in my past whom I hadn't spoken to in a really long time decided to reply to something I wrote a million years ago just to remind me they don't like me, or whatever. About two months ago, a guy that used to play League of Legends with me and my circle of internet friends replied to a review I wrote for the game Terraria, on Steam. This guy I never had a problem with as far as I knew, but he wrote some pretty passive-aggressive stuff about me because my Terraria review is "offensive."

My review in it's entirety:
"To be honest, I don't get the appeal. I thought I'd like it at first, but after a half hour of have no aim and drive to accomplish anything, I haven't booted it back up since. Not to mention the fact it relies on the archaic direct IP address connection method, meaning good luck doing the multiplayer if you're as network illeterate as I am.

I am fairly certain it's an autism simulator, appealing to people who want to see how many colorful shaped blocks they can line up in a row."

Is associating a game where the goal is to build things in obsessive OCD functionality to autism offensive? Slightly. It's also pretty funny if you share my sense of humor.

He attacked me for being "highly negative" in multiplayer settings, so why should I even want multiplayer functionality? I hadn't spoken to this guy in like two years, maybe more. He disappeared off the internet for quite some time and never rejoined our little clique again at least through the VOIP server. As far as I knew, we were kosher. Guess not. Guess he harbored some deep resentment toward me.

I get still disliking someone from your past, because it's only human to still not like a person when the last encounter was hostile. What I don't get is waiting more than a year to do anything about it, especially when otherwise there would be no contact again. Unless I'm given reason to like today, I'm never going to think about either of these guys again. I guess if I'm still sticking in their craw years removed from ever having spoken with them, I did something very right.
