I have this one chick on my plurk who always feels the need to butt in when I'm in the middle of talking to someone else on plurk.

So you know when you first post a plurk? People will comment and when they have nothing more to say to whatever conversation they're having with you, they'll sort of drift off and not reply anymore and then just either mute or ignore the plurk. And that's fine.

But this one chick tends to come back to the plurk ages later. And this only happens when I'm talking to someone else (our conversations take ages because of different time zones) so for example, that chick has replied and said all that she's wanted to me on that plurk, three days later, I'm still being active on that plurk and talking to someone else, she'll butt in with a totally random comment like OH WHAT DID YOU DO TODAY??? or HUGS! :)

and I'm all like, huh? What does she mean, what did I do today? That 'day' happened several days ago? I don't get why she doesn't just comment on my recent plurk. And I don't think she's that dumb. I think she'd doing it on purpose and I don't understand why. And it's always during a 'oh you' lulzy conversations. I don't know if she's trying to get in on the random silliness or what. But when I tried to confront her about it, she just ignored me?? Oh, keep in mind that we've been online friends for nearly six years so I don't understand what's she trying to do.

sorry for the tl;dr.

sounds like she's a little jealous that you're having a fun conversation without her

There's one chick in my RP that I removed ages ago (over a year) who keeps popping up in mutual friends plurks for no other reason than to disagree with me on something petty (the most petty being an argument over the fact that she didn't find the same imgur to be as funny as I did), or just to toss her character into the discussion even though it isn't relevant to whatever plot the mutual friend in question and I have going.

Just...stop please.

have you told her to back off? she comes across as the kind of person who would just flounce if you confronted her about it directly.

Why is it that like 90% of the people I rp with/have rped with in the past and thus added to Plurk are... well, for lack of a better term, goddamn hippies? You know. The sort of people who don't like the way things are and instead of doing something they just whine about it?

Seriously. I wish people would put in their little plurk profile something like "I am a goddamn whiner who will whine about things I don't like but never actually do anything that requires any effort," so that they can be spotted in advance and thus ignored.

I think you mean "armchair activists," not hippies. The hippie movement was a powerful force for change in US culture.

I am about ready to shank this bitch making whiny ass plurks all the time and disabling responses and then later deleting them. Wah wah, cry more about how your life sucks and nobody loves you. When, honestly, your problems are not that bad and a good half of them at least seem like they'd be solved if you'd just download the Spine upgrade for your personality. Holy shit. Yes I AM going to mute your fucking plurks, and no I will not give a fuck if you feel like you have no friends and no one is supporting you because, guess what, sugartits? I ain't going outta my way to give you cozies and advice when you don't seem to want it. I got shit of my own to deal with, thanks.

when I started cutting people from my plurk for this, I was so much happier.

the resulting drama was a pain in the ass, but the freedom. the freedom!

man, I know I'm in the complete minority here but I hate spilling my guts on anyone other than my mom or dad. it reduces me to my bare bones, most vulnerable sides and that's personal and not for most of you RP-made acquaintances, sorry.

but the once or twice times it happened on plurk, and i started rambling and getting emotional and broke down without thinking about it like a dumb fuck? and people gave me helpful advice for it? I thanked them, and I still thank them for encouraging to keep my chin up and take care of business. they helped motivate me to do better because they supported me. they are good people and I'm glad to know such kind hearted and supportive individuals.

it fucking infuriates me when I try to return that favor for other whiners and they just spit it back in my face, and make every excuse under the sun why ~that wouldn't work~ or just don't even respond at all. how can you take your own humility for granted like that? I just don't fucking understand.

Let's kick this up a notch and add people who make PRIVATE PLURK GROUPS to do the same thing, shall we?

Someone on my timeline added all the people who were kind enough to actually be supportive when they were having a rough time ...

... and now all they do is private plurk for attention and asspats and say "NO DON'T PITY ME" and "NOTHING WILL HELP".

bitch then why you dropping these shit notifs in my inbox.

it's gotten so ridiculous that I don't even post anything that isn't rp related and very minimum at that such as posts I make in games.

because I don't care about anyone's bullshit on plurk and I sure as hell know they don't care about my bullshit.

I don't even know what this comment is about.. just felt like sharing, bc sharing is what I be caring.

tmw you basically tell someone to grow a fucking spine and you're a gd villain for it.

tmw you spend time to give solutions to their problem because, gasp! you actually CARE, and you're the bad guy because of your not-so-politically-correct ~wording~ hurts their delicate little feefees.

i'm so fucking DONE.

most of my plurklist is pretty cool, but fuck, over the past few weeks i've noticed what obnoxious, overly cutesy womenchildren some of them are. i know, i know, remove that shit, but they used to be good friends and it feels bad cutting them off. they haven't even done anything, they're just annoying.

People who say they don't want to be involved in conversations about particular topics but then come into plurks you've made about those particular topics and proceed to either get butthurt when you engage with them on the topic they didn't want to talk about, or get butthurt that you ignore them because you already know that they don't want to talk about that topic.

Seriously? That's fucked up and kind of manipulative. Cut that shit out, I already know you don't want to talk about this stuff so I don't bring it into your plurks so don't make me out to be an asshole. Jfc.

Watching people argue over putting a content warning about something that is already in the opening plurk.


(CW: X) Plurk about X

is just plain silly.

Oh hey, better take it a step further just in case. how about

(CW: x) Plurk about X. May contain references to X.

i wish people on my timeline, who i really like as people, would just shut the fuck up about les miserables. generally i don't complain about anything on plurk, my fingers aren't broken, i can mute. but i swear i mute every fucking second plurk of theirs and they make one at least once an hour.

Why is it that every time someone makes a stupid ass of themselves in a plurk , fandom related or not, I check the profile to find out they're around the age 30 mark but are behaving like butthurt 16 year olds.

I'm so confused by this.
