disingenuous | scaramouche catchall

[He will judge regardless of how well or poorly he knows a person so this works for him too.]

It does make me wonder how he manages to navigate delicate situations in his typical life.

Your guess is as good as mine. For someone who used such language earlier, he was too scandalized. He must be performative.

[ they could both stand to be less mean. ]

Embarrassing.

[EMBARRASSING TO BE A PERFORMATIVE FOULMOUTHED GUY.]

At least he fits in with the other embarrassing people here.

Who else would you put in that group?

[ she wants to know his tier rankings. ]

What, of people who are embarrassing? Most others. It would be easier to count the exemptions. Nearly everyone here has been an embarrassment at least once, even if not of their own accord.

[Curses and strange effects make fools of us all...]

All right. Who are your exemptions?

[ is there anyone? everyone's been cursed at some point. ]

[TRULY EVERYONE'S BEEN CURSED AT SOME POINT.]

Those who hold themselves decently in spite of any curses that may have befallen them are as close to exempt as possible in this situation. You would be there.

[Hilariously he thinks Roxana has handled her curses the least embarrassingly out of anyone and has also swerved most of the truly embarrassing curses.]

[ she also doesn't get as cursed nearly as often as most people here, but she also pretends like it never happened. ]

High praise from you.

[He does as well but unfortunately you cannot pretend it never happened when you become mark from accounting.]

I feel like it shouldn't be. This group set the bar low.

[ just never reference accounting ever again, scaramouche. she misses mark from accounting. he was so funny to her. ]

You set the bar low for everyone and then lower them underneath it.

[HE COULD DO THAT AND HE'D STILL GET RAZZED. PEOPLE JUST LOVE HECKLING HIM EVEN THOUGH HE DOES NOT GIVE THE REACTIONS THEY LOOK FOR.]

It's pathetic but they did it on their own.

I don't think it's entirely on their own. You don't seem like you come into things with a neutral mindset.

[ he's predisposed to thinking poorly of people in her opinion. ]

[She is mostly correct.]

I've dealt with enough people in my time that I don't need to. They rarely if ever prove me incorrect.

You're your own self-fulfilling prophecy.

[ it's not exactly a criticism since she's not really disagreeing, but it's just proof he's set in his ways. ]

[LISTEN......... Maybe so. All old people become like this eventually, it is the inevitable way.]

I would love to be taken off my guard and surprised more often.

They do say be careful of what you wish for.

After enough time, you're willing to take more risks if you get results that are unexpected, I feel.

Is that so? You must be desperate for something new.

[A little hum. MAYBE SO...]

I don't mind breaks in the monotony.

It doesn't seem anything here has broken that for you.

Nothing has surprised me, no. Hell did, here and there, but considering this place is meant to be a replica of the rest, nothing has caught me off my guard.

You must be so bored.

The worst state of all to be in.

I'd choose bored over some other states.

Fair enough. Some days I agree.
