¿Dónde está la biblioteca, Pedro?

I'm not a biography

Yo quiero Taco Bell

Quiero? Why does everyone say that? I've never said I was, that I am aware of. Not even to
make any of the creepy people leave me alone.
I remember back when the irc room still existed, at least three people asked if I was a
lesbian. I think that was around the time that I was going through certain things, and had
some paranoia about being around men, like more than I do now, and yes a lot of it was
paranoia about sex, but I was NOT ready to give the real explanation, so I don't remember
what I said but I guess it wasn't good enough because I think there are still people who
assume that even though I said I was not a lesbian.
It may be partly because I said something about not wanting to date anyone, but I
specifically meant online. I don't believe in online dating, and have no intention of ever
trying it. If other people want to try it, that's fine, I don't mind if you do it, but
after seeing how badly women are harassed on online dating dates, I know I won't be trying it.
That and I think someone saw I was getting close with Melon, but it was NOT like that. I
liked her more in a "sister I never had" way, which unfortunately didn't last long when
she left AWBW soon after anyway. That is very different from what may have been implied by
others. Very different. Not sexual at all. From either of us. There is no reason for
anyone to believe and me and Melon were anything else.
Well that and I know that the way Autumn Storm used to talk to me was like a jealous ex.
Always criticizing me for no reason, and trying to take out her anger on me no matter how
irrelevant the forum topic was. But I definitely want to be 100% clear that nothing like
that ever happened, we have never, and will never, be in a relationship. She really is
just a jealous bitch. I guess because I was good at AW at the time and actually
contributed things, while she was never really important around here in any way and didn't
seem to have more than 1 or 2 friends, if any. I would never, ever, ever, be so desperate
to actually consider being in a relationship with something that awful. The thought
disgusts me.
Or is it the way I rejected creepers like Golby? Just because I turn down one guy's creepy
advances, doesn't mean I'm not heterosexual. He was just really creepy. Also, I don't do
online dating. Also, he joked about raping me, which is at least a moderate turn off for
me. Also, I was underage at the time, and he was not, and both of us knew that.
I hope it's not because of sexist notions that a woman is nothing without a man. I hate
that stereotype. Also most gender stereotypes. I'm still a person when I'm single. I'm not
just {some guy}'s gf. Never will be.
Besides, there is something called Bisexuality. Hypothetically. There are more than two
options here, I don't just either like men or like women. Even though I know some
(religious) people are having trouble with the concept of homosexuality still, everyone
else still needs to realize that there are people who are asexual, pansexual, bisexual,
etc. Not that I'm confirming anything, but there a lot of annoying misconceptions against
bisexuals, such as the "just a phase" rumors, or that it must be 50-50 in liking men and
women, or that bisexuals are incapable of monogamy, which is all false. Again, not saying
I am bisexual, but I just thought everyone should know that.

Ay caramba...

It's actually pronounced something closer to "key-air-owe", but with an authentic accent,
it might be more like "kyedo". with the d being something between a d and an r. It means
"I want" or "I love", but specifically "love" in a non-passionate/romantic way; there's a
whole different verb for that kind of love. Usually, when used to mean "love" it's for
objects or things that you like a lot. I mean, I can "quiero" people too, but it's more
like a friendly sort of thing and doesn't express strong emotions. Mostly it's used as "I
want", anyway. This happens to be something I love about Spanish- the specificity is great
when it comes to a word like "love" that we throw around willy nilly in English to mean
anything from how you feel about the love of your life to how you feel about going to a
social event you might not want to attend at all ("Sure, I'd love to."), and everything in
between (like chips and popcorn!).

I think the 6 bases around the center are quite contested. I like that, so if your are in
the winning mood and you are smart, you might defeat all those cooperating culprits. It
think this map could do with one less starting base, though FTA will be harder to counter.

Is this a normal map? It encourages some unexpected talks.
Xmo5 (08/10/2016 02:26pm):
Este mapa necesita tener dos "bases" para asegurar que "FTA" no sea problematica. Tambien,
es mejor que remuevas las cuidades y especialmente los "bases" en el centro porque, en
este momento, son muy "contested" y tambien los "bases" y aeropuertos estan demasiado
cerca. Hay muchos problemas de "FTA" cuando "tanks", por ejemplo, puedan mover y atacar
otros "units" en los "bases" o aeropuertos de enemigos en solo un dia.

Sorry for not including all my accents, it's really hard to do without the international
keyboard option set up... which I've only done on my home computer. Also, I'm too lazy to
look up the proper words for base, contested, units, etc. based on AWBW context, so what
you see is what you get. Lastly, sorry if I butchered the Spanish language, but it's been
a while and I'm rusty.

If you don't speak Spanish, I'm not sorry at all. You asked for this.
Nyvelion (08/10/2016 03:30pm):
Oh. Well, I knew it had something to do with love.
Anyway, I should probably just admit that I don't actually know any Spanish.
Nyvelion (10/10/2016 11:41am):
Though of course I'm 100% sure that you didn't mean it this way and would not say it in
this way to me, "If you don't speak Spanish, I'm not sorry at all. You asked for this."
gave me awful thoughts about what if a guy tried to sexually assault a woman after asking
for consent in a language she didn't understand, leaving her unable to say no, and then
the courts side against her because that's how it works in the USA if there isn't a
mountain of evidence that she said no.
I think I need to learn how to say 'no' in every language now. At least Spanish starts out
easily enough there.
Xmo5 (10/13/2016 07:05pm):
That's horrifying. I would think that a head nod and plenty of negative body language would be more than enough
regardless of the language barrier.
