she uses them. i don't.

of course i suppose i could be deliberately using them AS her, to throw you off the trail.

(to miss anthrope, who may or may not exist: we've had a lot of users lately make up new profiles to get on the site incognito. it is now officially frowned upon but still turns up from time to time.)

'*Ash"* is actually not a real person, but one of Meat!'s many alter-egos. pay her no mind. we're all actively encouraging her to seek out the help she plainly needs.

I know. I thought she didn't use them at first glance, but you pointed it out, so I looked again and saw that she really does use them.

Uh, thanks for the warm welcome...and for officially scaring the sh*t out of me!  Nah, I'm not really scared- but all this talk about alter egos is really making my 12 other personalities talk REALLY loud in my head! Did I mention that my name is actually Sybil Anthrope?  :D

Hiya Sybil!  Welcome a-board!  As far as restoring faith in humans...don't ask me! :D

A misanthrope is a person who hates humankind. A nihilist is a person who hates the established rules and regulations and laws of humankind. Hitler was a misanthropist. Selectively, but he was. Lenny Bruce was a nihilist. He just hated the establishment of the 60's.

For the record, I really do not hate all  humankind. Just a select few that dare to call themselves a human being. They're not...trust me!


I am really kinda nice.... :)

see, i think of misanthropy of more of an aesthetic. i really like a lot of misanthropists. they see the humor in what a basketcase humanity is.

hitler i see as more of a utopian psycho. (utopian in the most dangerously sick sense of the word -- someone who says i know the path to salvation and you must follow me or die.)

Greetings Miss Anthrope, hoping you enjoy your time here and that the last couple of weeks have helped to restore your faith in humans

From the Temple of Our Lady Of the Diodes does the '80s Relic HawkTheSlayer send salutations to Miss Anthrope!

If you prefer "Sybil", let me know.

We are all one rather happy, if disjointed and slightly warped, clan here.

May you enjoy the topics of discussion, the camaraderie, and the slight degree of zany that is here!

(Oh, BTW- did you happen to bring SWAT gear, handcuffs and a pound of bratwurst?)
