@sao said in An Arx Peeve Thread:
I hate unthematic sexism because first someone rps about something unthematically sexist and then other people rp about how terrible the first unthematically sexist thing was but the fact is NONE OF THAT SHOULD HAVE HAPPENED IN THE FIRST PLACE STOP MAKING ME TRY TO SQUARE THE TOTAL NONSENSE OF MISOGYNY WITH THEMATIC RP AHHHH
NONE OF OUR CHARACTERS HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS, IT DOESN’T MAKE ANY SENSE IN WORLD
I wish I were out there on the grid stopping this in its tracks whenever it appears like a goddamn animated paperclip
Word. I recently had a character’s outfit referred to as weird in meta. It was pants. It was some pants.

@sao This is something that drives me a little bonkers. Usually I have my PC ask them stuff like “wow that’s so weird, why do you say that?” Or “gee, I wonder why that person would have said something so nonsensical, were they drunk or something?” If the player is new i might point out some of the cultural help.
I don’t even entertain that sort of super anti-thematic thing IC; I tend to just go straight to the OOC of “oh actually maybe you don’t know but that’s not a thing in this world.” I understand that not everyone feels comfy doing that, though.

Someone once commented on how bold a choice it was for Aureth, a blond man with fair skin, to be wearing pink.
To this day I regret not going OOC to ask what they meant.

@sao Pink is over. It’s sage green season.

@Tez THEY GO TOGETHER.

@farfalla Does that mean it’s still pastel season?
-
@sao Let’s be clear, everyone’s got a little pink in them.

@crawfish I can’t tell if that was literal, or if we’re ordering how we want our steak done.

@Tez Speaking of vegetables, today I learned that cucumbers are not vegetables. They’re a fruit. I don’t know how to handle that information.
