Well, this one is pretty short.

Back in 2006, I was taking some art classes at an art academy near my place. The classes were kind of poo poo, but but I was unhappy with my art and wanted to feel like I was doing something about it.

Anyway, my class was basically just a bunch of nerds. One of the nerds was a really, really, really fat guy. When I say really fat I mean the "I wonder how he manages to walk" fat. He was also very greasy and extremely awkward. He was always wearing some sort of anime t-shirt (usually Evangelion) and kept talking about how he was going to be a manga-ka in Japan someday. Anyway, you get the idea; let's call him otaku-san.

One warm December evening (I'm from Brazil so it's Summer in December over there), it was our last day at school and we all decided to go out for a beer. Otaku-san was always kind of left out and I felt bad for him, so I invited him to come along. I would, of course, regret it later.

Anyway, off we went. I don't drink, so I had a soda. Everyone else just had beers. Otaku-san had never tried beer before, and -- I think in an effort to fit in -- he just... chugged it. Again and again... and again.

About two hours later, he was all but passed out on the chair and we had no idea what to do with him. We all decided to go to my place because it was pretty close to the bar. We somehow managed to drag him along with us, and other than falling down a couple of times, he made it okay.

I lived by myself in a two bedroom apartment, so I put two of the guys in the other room, otaku-san on the couch in the living room, and took the two girls to sleep on the floor in my room. Drunken good nights were said, and we all went to bed.

At around 3AM I woke up feeling pretty thirsty and went to get some water. As I was in the hallway on my way to the kitchen, I heard someone moaning in the living room.

I thought otaku-san was sick or something, so I went right in and turned the lights on... and found him on all fours on the floor, with his pants down, humping one of my pillows.

I screamed, everyone woke up, otaku-san fell on the pillow, the other girls started to scream and the guys started to laugh hysterically. It was complete chaos. I felt bad for him but at the same time I was grossed out and pissed off as hell. One of the guys finally just told him to pull his pants up and get his stuff and drove him home.

According to the guy, otaku-san was not embarrassed at all and spent the whole trip talking about how pissed he was that I "broke the mood". He then proceeded to throw up all over my friend's car.

I threw away two pillows, a sheet set and a blanket that day, and I never heard from otaku-san again.

I wanna sing one for the cars
That are right now headed silent down the highway
And it's dark and there is nobody driving And something has got to give

I'm not sure what this says about me, but after a years-long period of intermittent lurking, I finally registered an SA forum account just to post on this thread. Reading about Denise reminded me of a crazy friend I had in school, and in the spirit of crazy-middle-school-friend sympathy, I'd like to share a bit of her story.

When I was 13, my family moved across the continent, and I started eighth grade at a new school where nearly all of my fellow students had been in school together since kindergarten. I was a total outsider, and being awkward and nerdy at the best of times, I had a pretty hard time making friends. I used after-school clubs to try and fill the void my social life had become, and it was at one of those clubs that I met the girl I'll call Calliope.

Even to my confused, lonely 14-year-old self, Calliope was a pretty weird kid. She was obsessed with Disney's Hercules and had written fanfic about it, which she showed off to me pretty proudly. (In retrospect, the stuff she'd written was very typical adolescent-girl wish-fulfillment, but at the time it seemed mesmerizingly weird to me.) She claimed to be a "pagan Lutheran" and was clearly in love with attention, but she was nice to me, and we shared some nerdy interests -- particularly Lord of the Rings, which in the pre-movie era felt like the talisman of a magical secret society. (Yes, I was a giant LotR nerd.) We settled into some basic dynamics fairly quickly; she was the magical, special, crazy heroine and I was the sensible but boring sidekick. This was obviously not healthy, but I was young and stupid and lonely, so Calliope became my best friend.

Once we got to high school, the weirdness deepened, and the spiritual weirdness began in earnest. Calliope wasn't precisely a soulbonder (although I believe she identifies as an elven otherkin now), and thankfully she never had an astral romantic life, but every semester or so she'd have some weird new belief system. Unfortunately, I'd been skeptical enough that she pinpointed me as The Cynical Nonbeliever, and I suspect I was kept out of the loop of a lot of her craziness as a result, but there were still some humdingers. There were a few weeks when she thought The Matrix was true, and there was some odd thing at the end of sophomore year where she swore that she'd sold her soul to the Vestal Virgins for 4000 years, but the big one was the year-or-two-long stretch where she claimed at she and two girls I didn't know were the triumvirate "soul-daughters" of the goddess Kali and were active on astral plane, where Calliope was a "guardian dragon." This set of mythology got expanded on quite a bit, and since we weren't really on great terms anymore by that point, it was also used as the basis of some high-school-girl sniping.

The real problem with Calliope, in the end, wasn't that she was crazy but that she was desperate for attention and, ultimately, something of a malignant narcissist. She was mildly attractive, thinner than most of us in our little nerd group, and able to start dating early in high school, and she made sure that we all knew just how special and beautiful she was. I often ended up taking the brunt of it, probably because I was too "mundane," and Calliope all but told me I would die alone. As time went on and I drifted away from the nerd social scene, Calliope eventually came to control it, pretty transparently because she loved being the big charismatic fish in a small awkward pond. (Never mind that she didn't really have any friends or do anything socially outside of the nerd-hive -- she was still the magical elven princess, and that's what matters.) The toxicity was obvious after a while, and I pretty much severed ties with her after high school, but in retrospect it all screwed me up pretty badly.

There are a lot of Calliope stories I should tell, so I may as well throw out a few for consideration:

Calliope's Epic Adolescent Fanfiction
Roleplaying With Calliope: So Many Special Elven Snowflakes
The Soul-Daughters of the Goddess Kali: 99.8% Actual-Hinduism-Free

DISPEL MAGIC!

I finally caught up to the thread and oh my god I'm torn between :stare: and :byodood:. I wish half the poo poo my weirdass friends do even came up to the amount of poo poo in this thread so perhaps my life would be somewhat interesting.

Though I can confirm that yaoi makes people some pretty weird fuckers.

"So wait, you want a penis from a girl who has had a sex change to get that penis as well as having that same sex change to also have a penis?"

No you cannot do internet Google detective skills to figure out who any of these people are.

I know this one girl, let's call her Lindsy. She is a friend of my girlfriend's. Kind of short, angers easily, based on Prance's description of people who can't seem to control their voice level, probably has aspergers. She is one of those typical weeaboo, "I love Japan so much gently caress Murrica," kind of people, any time I see her she's in some kind of anime beanie or wearing her random assortment of Chobits or Full Metal Alchemist keychains. She digs the yaoi, and frequently manages to brutally murder her computer with viruses and such on a quest for the perfect yaoi folder (It's gigs big, last time she openly told me how big it was around 3 gigs. This was two years ago.) She's into Hetalia, FMA, Tsubasa, and a bunch of other animes where the ambiguously effeminate males thrive, and seems to has an eerily powerful love for Elfen Lied. But she loves yaoi, and I mean loves it. She seemed like an overall normal human being until about 2 years ago, my girlfriend calls me up and the following discussion occurs:

:j: Uhm, Bleck, I need your opinion on something.
:D Absolutely! What can I do for you?
:j: Well uh, you know Lindsy, right, right, you've hung out with her.
:v: Yes, nice girl, how is she, I haven't seen her recently. *
:j: Well, uh, she's been telling me about something... weird, lately.
:v: Yeah, what is this weird thing?
:j: Well, she thinks she should've been born male.
:v: Uh, that's a pretty common thing, isn't it?
:j: No but, she says she's a male trapped in a woman's body, and wants to get a sex change.
:v: I still don't see what's weird about th-
:j: She still wants to get hosed by men.
:v: Uhhh..
:j: But not just any men, she wants to get hosed by men who are also females who want to become men to have sex with men.

:psyduck:

:stare: What? Lemme get this straight. She wants to have a sex change, so she can be a male, so she can continue to do what she does now, which is to have sex with men...?
:j: Yeah, what do you think?

*It was around this time we had all transitioned to bigger, better things, (like, not highschool). I hadn't heard from most of my friends who had found the ganja in our Senior year (They were awesome D&Dmates, too) and my girlfriend's friends were beginning to decline into insanity around the time college was looming over our naive little heads.

I couldn't honestly tell her what I thought because I didn't know how to wrap my head around it at the time. This was news to me, Lindsy, who had gone from a really overall normal person who just liked to look at anime cocks touching anime cocks had suddenly just wanted to recreate her fantasies in real life, with men who were also females and wanted to have sex with men as men.

Are you following this so far? I wasn't following it either. At the time, no :psyduck: was big enough.

From the moment on after Lindsy had been informed I knew about her circumstance (I told my girlfriend that I was okay with her decision and that as her friend you should be too [I would later find out just how weird this was going to be]). As such, she got a little... pushy with how I was to treat her.

1) All conversations involving Lindsy, present or not, were to use male pronouns to describe his.
2) Nobody 'outside his circle of trust' was to know his dark secret.
3) We were to refer to him as Liam. (I would never actually do this and just continued to call her by the nickname everyone had given him, 'Shrimpy').

Anyways, Liam, who started to show some signs of 'manliness'* while still acting as if nothing was wrong as well as still acting like a girl about everything to get what she wanted and how she wanted it done, her room to this day I am lead to believe, still looks like an estrogen filled anime clubhouse, right down to several plushies of sugoi I am cute ~*uguu*~ plushies that she would cuddle like a five year old with.

*'Manliness' can be associated with being rude, smelling like Axe, being overall stubborn, pretending to have nuts by lowering your voice pitch a few decibels, and random acts of aggression 'just cuz'.

This didn't get really, really weird until...

"I have found my soulmate, he's just like me, and underaged!"

I was first introduced to 'Albert' about five or six months after this uncovering of girls-in-guys-bodies-sex thing Liam was into. Awkward, skinny, had this issue with physical contact with anything that wasn't Liam. I never learned his 'female name'. He was about a foot taller than Liam despite being four years younger than him and had the personality equivalent to an upset six year old who had just lost his favorite toy. This personality flipped to a bubbly I can take on the world outlook whenever Liam was within proximity. Did I mention Albert is four years younger than Liam? Liam is eighteen as of now.

This was personally and legally disturbing. They never actually had sex during their relationship as far as I know (and for some unfathomable reason I think that's for the best) and would pretty much only kiss or hug like two long-lost anime sisters at all possible times. They would also do that gooey gooey mac and cheese fill your arteries with pain poo poo you see couples do during their first couple weeks months of admitting their love to each other, any conversation between the two would always have some form of this:

:byodame: Albert I wub you so much! SQUEEEEEEEEE!
:byodood: I wuv you too Liam!
*insert about two minutes of a combination of making out, cuddling, and some of the 'manliest' loud-pitched squealing I have ever heard in my life*

I have no idea how the break up went four months later other than Liam having her world shattered like glass and Albert eventually trying to crawl back into her life after Liam had resented him for it.

This doesn't nearly cover my excellent adventures through oddville, but I think I should save 'crazy Lindsy'** for another time.

**A completely different Lindsy with a somewhat similar issue involving dating underaged people.

No, it's more that these people probably have no gender issues beyond "it would be really kawaii to be a dude and butt gently caress other dudes like yaoi!!!" I've known a few of these people and they're not really doing it for legit reasons...like the one girl I knew who wanted to be a 6"4 bodybuilder dude because she was short and didn't like people looking at her tits (?).

I just think it would be nice to err on the side of caution, you can 'probably don't have gender issues' all you want but is it really hard to be respectful in the meantime instead of identity policing? It's odd its described as being 'pushy' for him to ask people call him what he wants to be called, that isn't out of the ordinary.

She was so fat she couldn't sleep lying down because of weight related sleep apnia and while she did bathe regularly at least, her apartment was loving filthy and caked in old food and dishes. Her cats peed on things too and it smelled but she liked to cover up the stench with perfume. Purple skirts, oddly, were a favourite of hers. Someone should chalk up long flowing purple skirts as a sign of batshittedness.

Along with the controlling bitchiness, she sounds an awful lot like 'Hojo' Jen of the FF7 house.

It's kind of awkward for you to start calling your friends "him" after referring to them as "her" for a few years. Liam expected the change immediately and flipped poo poo on anyone who didn't call him 'him'. I had some nasty bruises from when he decided to kick my shin for saying he about a day after she requested this of me.

To this day it is still awkward.

Good lord. I thought you might have been someone I knew and about poo poo my pants. I, too, was in a Sailor Moon dance group back when I first started high school. Hell, if I'm remembering correctly it was probably around '05 as well.

Our leader's ambitious ness would be our downfall. Things did not end well, hence why I refer to that summer as The Summer Of Which We Do Not Speak.

Luckily, no one in the group was nuts (except for one, but she had actual mental disabilities, so it wasn't her fault, and none of the stuff she did was actually horrifying...well, other than taking our choreographed fights a little too seriously because, "they're the villains and we have to defeat them!" she's a good kid, though) In fact, I'm still very good friends with a majority of them to this day.

Welp, I realize it's pages behind but there's the answer I've been trying to dig up for a week. <:mad:> Thank you for providing this vital information so I can start us a delicious new thread with plenty of anti-rear end in a top hat stipulations and a greater emphasis on the books themselves.

Melissa stories wound up on hold due to the holiday hustlebustle, but should return within the week. I love you always, thread and contributors.

Good lord. I thought you might have been someone I knew and about poo poo my pants. I, too, was in a Sailor Moon dance group back when I first started high school. Hell, if I'm remembering correctly it was probably around '05 as well.

I knew a girl who was really into Sailor Moon when we were in high school. We graduated from high school in 1999. She still posts hundreds of pictures of her cosplay all the time on Facebook. I mean, compared to all the stories in this thread, that's nothing, but...don't most people eventually stop? Isn't nearly 15 years of dressing up like Sailor Moon characters enough?

I hope you start a new thread soon! He's going to be appearing at a con my cousin's going to and I want to show her how messed up this guy is. :v:

I wanna sing one for the cars
That are right now headed silent down the highway
And it's dark and there is nobody driving And something has got to give

I realize this is off-topic for this thread, but it's good to hear there's a new Bibeau thread coming. I read the whole saga during my lurking days and have a hunger for discussing the amazing world of Felsic Current.

On a vaguely-related subject, is there a thread policy on posting, for lack of a better phrase, primary source material? If/when I post more Calliope material, I have some written stuff of hers that it might be better to quote from than paraphrase, and I think some judicious name-replacing should make it immune to Internet detective work. If nothing else, I'd really like to share her completely batshit, bizarrely cannibalism-focused attempt at a fantasy RP setting and the silver-blooded elven slave princess from it she inflicted on a game I was in.

Didn't he swear he was going to remove himself from cons and the Internet? We left on such a cliffhanger.
