[ The best way to deal with crippling revelations is to make inane posts. Well. Maybe not so inane since he is genuinely lost. ]

What is the different between a boyfriend and a boy friend? Are there various levels of friendship that are distinguished by sex? The online literature on this subject is perplexing in nature. How does one earn these titles?

well, if that definition is my definition,
then sure. i've had plenty of meaningful relationships.

[dothelokimotion]

Your mother does not count.

[smokedout]

going for the low blows, huh.

[A nerve has definitely struck. It takes him a bit to send the second part of his reply.]

got a good reason for me to give you a sob story? because otherwise you'll be going purely on my assurance that my lifestyle works.

[dothelokimotion]

No. I don't particularly care. Your lifestyle may work but it is short term. In a place like this, it'll only end badly.

[smokedout]

everything in mortals' lives are short term. may as well enjoy them while they last.

[dothelokimotion]

I'm not mortal.

And that seems more akin to a dangerous lifestyle than one that leads to longevity.

[smokedout]

longevity is an overrated concept. there's no point in living a long life if you're missing out on life in the process.

[Dodger, this is why you're going to die at 25.]

[dothelokimotion]

You must be one of those men with low self-esteem and a death wish.

[smokedout]

what are you, my mother?

most people i know would call a "death wish" bravery.

[dothelokimotion]

[ Yeah, no. Loki might be slightly out of touch with Midgard, but he knows enough and will catch up quickly. ]

Ah. More people like you that make it easier to indulge the masochism.

[smokedout]

something like that. masochism's far from a bad thing if you know what you're doing.

[dothelokimotion]

And you do?

[smokedout]

sure.

[Which is Dodger-speak for "maybe".]

[dothelokimotion]

I'm not convinced.

[smokedout]

i'm still alive, aren't i?

[dothelokimotion]

So are many others. Again. It is not convincing.

[smokedout]

what's it matter to you? you're not the one getting hurt.

[dothelokimotion]

Perhaps I simply wish to witness your decline. I enjoy a good comedy of errors now and then.

[smokedout]

well i'd be happy to share, if there's something in it for me. entertainment and information are the only currencies worth dealing in.

[dothelokimotion]

I doubt I have any information pertinent to you.

[smokedout]

try me. you never know what might catch my interest.

[dothelokimotion]

All the more reason not to share it with a delusional mortal. You think you have any power? Any worth?

[smokedout]

awww don't you trust me?

i thought we were having a moment here.

[dothelokimotion]

You sound like you barely trust yourself.

[smokedout]

do you always have to do off on psychobabble tangents?
