Random Thoughts/Things?

I wasn’t really sure what to call this thread, but I’ve had this idea floating around in my head for awhile now. Basically, anyone can post anything here. Any random thought you have, any random thing that happens to you, any random question that pops into your mind. Have fun, and don’t be afraid to be random.

Does anyone watch Technoblade? Dream? Sapnap? Tommyinnit? Wilbur soot? Tubbo?

There are two dream fans in my ELA class and I was like my people but then I realized that I'm never going to talk to them because I'm too lazy :p

UgH I'm currently in online DnD. I can never keep up with what is happening and this will make it worse but whatever, I need to rant somewhere. Also, for some reason my audio works in DnD -- like, it can work on this same device OTHER times but NO not here. But that's not what I'm going to rant about here.

I'm honestly getting kind of annoyed with my campaign.

We aren't encouraged to roleplay much and it's very battle-heavy and amount of decisions are low, but that's not the main problem.

A lot of the people's characters in this campaign all feel the same, not just with this set of characters but wih others, too. Like, I know that this one has a different class and this one a different race and this one a different alignmnet and this one a different skillset/methods, etc., but they all just feel like the recolored versions of the same, not very interesting character.

They are all so similar and boring, and it's always predictable what they will do and it takes so much fun out of it. This same, steryorypical base character archetype is also pretty boring, and no one feels uniuque or origional.

I'm pretty sure at the heart of it is greed. They all want money and it is generally obtained immorally. They generally like fighting, although not everytime There isn't much to them, and sometimes it feels like they were built in a way that the creator just wanted to have a good at fighting character.

Okay, sorry about this rant I just needed to say this somewhere and let out some frustrations.

Oh, and I'm pretty sure not one of the people I'm talking about have played a female character (at least for the time I have been there.)

In my head I came up with an example of making a mor einteresting character if anyone wants to hear it.

Nothing in the world is worse than agreeing with the person who is repremanding you.

I'm bored and reading the entire Random Thoughts/Things thread, and came across this comment: 

"My entire life I've wondered why toes aren't called "foot fingers", and I recently learned that the word for toes in spanish literally means "fingers of the foot".

I have no more respect for the english language

Why aren't fingers called hand toes? Why are toes always considered less important than fingers? Until today, I have not appriciated my toes. Toes deserve more respect.

Is it weird that this whole quarantine situation is still pretty surreal to me and staying at home still feels insanely normal? Probably just ridiculously introverted me who barely sees friends and has never actually gone to a public school before, buuut... yeah. I really should get out more. :P

Of course, doing ballet classes in my living room with two siblings and not being able to go into stores is really annoying, but I feel really chill about it like I've done it forever. It's really kinda scaring me. •_•

I actually feel the same way. There are some very annoying parts about quarantine, but otherwise, I feel like I could do this forever. Which is odd, and slightly disturbing.

I also do Modern/Contemporary dance, but I haven't done anything else before. I like contemporary because the dress code, music, and dance is more lax. I think it's cool we're dance buddies, though! :)

Oh, cool! I've always wanted to try those, but my studio doesn't offer them. It is cool! :)

I had the weirdest dream last night- I had to be watched over by 3 "caretakers" with some other kids I don't remember, much like the dragonets of prophecy in the WoF books. But the weird part is who the caretakers were- a human version of Kestrel from WoF, the guy with the guitar in the band Of Monsters and Men, and this lady who looked kinda like the Bullet in Hamilton, she was super cool and chill. Anyway, they took us on a walk next to this cliff by a lake, and we saw a bunch of weird red creatures that were like snakes, but...chunkier? And amphibious, and probably dangerous. Idk.

Am I annoying? 

I don't try to be. :\ 
If I am, please say how I can be not-annoying. 
Thanks.

No, you're not annoying. Don't worry. Or at least, I don't think you're annoying.
