Once upon a time not so long ago there lived a small man. Thoroughly average despite being so very small. He lived a small quiet life he found interesting in the service to a great organization spanning the globe, that was in itself in service to another power. Despite being a small man of singular unimportance, he had an idea. The idea tugged at him, grasped his small imagination and refused to be dislodged no matter what small distractions or solace he sought. In time and a small span of time at that, this idea become a small obsession and began to consume him until he realized in his small ways he must act upon it or be forever lost.

The problem was of course that he was a very small man and the other small men of the great organization didn't share his enthusiasm or his obsession. No funding was forth coming. No resources were made available. And so this small man took a risk. He took what he needed. He stole what was required. He falsified documents. He gambled his singularly unimportant life on being able to prove the inherent rightness of his idea and thence to validate the obsession that drove him to do what he would never have otherwise done. It should come as no surprise he failed. Not because his idea was wrong, oh no, simply because his actions were discovered and his crimes brought into the light to be judged by the other small men. Afterwards he thought he'd lost everything. His quiet small life was gone. His small service rejected. And the great organization itself in service to another power trudged along its path without even a moments hesitation at his summary dismissal.

Those inclined to judge him harshly for his actions or his later cowardice in seeking a way out of his predicament would do well to remember he was after all is said and done only small man. A small man who in death found the cool balm of the dark forgiveness that comes from joining the nothingness. A small man who went to sleep one cloudy morning and never woke up again. Or perhaps he was reborn the following cloudy evening. Few reports are truly accepted with absolute certainty.

My name is Mister Frost. I'm certain we'll find many things to discuss.

That's not surprising, Jenny Paper. Tell me, is it true what I hear about the Japanese? That you're not born with souls, and you have to earn them after the fact by embracing western culture? I've been to Japan, before, and I've got to say, standing in front of a bunch of glass-eyed slants kneeling and preening for some novas autograph kind of looks like sailor fuku day at the Manhattan aquarium. It's like you're all dead inside and nobody bothered to tell you yet. Creepy.

I have to agree to the fact that there are some baselines that are easily... distracted. At least where I live. I would use sharper words regarding that issue, but I'm being diplomatic.

To give it a verifiable sum, I think there are a few who have taken their obsession past the logical limit.

There is a term for people like that. Otaku .

Fortunately those interested in me have the intellect enough to seperate fantasy from reality. At least regarding my works. But even I have my obsessed fans.

I just thank whatever providence I can that I was not born Paul Sheldon. If you've read Steven King novels, you probably know of whom I refer.

I'll give you that, Jenny Paper. Bovine Americans are just as easily distracted by the beautiful people, but they tend to get their fix from a glowing box. Just seems to me that the Japs have some kind of specialty market on behaving like squealing, vacant tentacle recepticles en masse, whereas the rest of the free world at least sits on their ass and smiles with ironic detachment. And yeah, I know what a fuckin' otaku is, you pinhead. Some of the porn I've seen small Japanese men only illustrate gives me the wicked heebies, and I am a vile man. Baselines managed to stoop to the depths of depravity long before novas came along, and that's something that they can take the dubious credit for wholesale. Anyone who says differently is welcome to peruse my copy of Super Cool Love Babysitter Rape Baby-Eat Poo Fun Loli!! vol. 3.

Well, then again, I can dredge your dark alleys quite deftly. Do a search regarding Furry on your favorite OpNet search agent. With the filters off. Most of those "artists" are westerners. In fact it would be safe to say a majority are from western society. Also, don't get me started on the bizarre German fetishists. Not to mention the USA is the leading consumer of pornography. Thought I'd point that out.

Yeah, we have alot of crazy people, but it's proportionate to the percentage of crazy to sane everywhere else. Then again, it's just more concentrated on our islands compared to the massive continents everyone else has. So it's more noticable.

You try cramming 300 million or more people on a pacific-rim archaepelego and see who keeps sane.

I'd sell tickets to that party.

And I know what a goddamn furry is. For fuck's sake, two of them post here, where the fuck have you been? One's a mountain-splitting narcissistic dork and the other's a vulpine seductress-scientist. Together, they fight crime! And have the most disgusting, unholy sex that porcine men in kanji shirts who live with their parents could ever hope to have fanfic'd!!

You know, Jenny Paper, if you get off on shit or something, fine, whatever, stay the fuck away from me, but no judgments. You like to blow your pets? Whatever, I'm sure you and your dog have a great relationship. But Japan is unique amongst the world's smut producers in that it seems to produce an inordinate amount of stroke material that involves murder, children and - oh yeah - murdering children. Shit like that leaves me wondering why we stopped with Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

For fuck's sake, Jenny Paper, this is exactly what I'm fucking talking about. I understand English isn't your first language, but Japanese isn't my first, either, and only a fucking jackass would think a man was being literal if he said "その人は野菜である". What, you don't have hyperbole in Japan? Saying "I know everything" is a glib oversimplification that is meant to imply that my brain is more full of fucking meat than the best and brightest of you mutant freaks and that there is very little - personal experiences (in other words, useless data) aside - that is outside my megalithic intellectual grasp. But the fact that I had to explain that to you at all proves my point; the collection of fan clubs that comrprises your culture looks at everything foreign with all the comprehension of a dog shown a card trick.

As for you, Worst Batman Villain Ever, you should fucking know better.

Oh, like you can throw stones, my little Tetsuo. Seriously, has Shinya Tsukamoto called asking for his hyrdraulic drill-cock back yet?

On a friendlier note: The worst Batman villain ever is the Quiz Master. An obese man who worships Wheel of Fortune and controls an army of wrestling midgets? So nightmarishly lame.

Wow, you talk about I missing sarcasm yet you miss my jab? How quaint.

"Truely? Then what am I thinking, Omnipotent one?"

Then again, as I look at it, text is rather difficult to convey sarcasm. Another detail that you, unfortunately, have overlooked.

Then again, if your goal is to stick a knife under my skin coated in salt to drive home some sort of point, I must be missing the point through all the pain it causes.

Batman? That was an unexpectedly obscure cultural reference. I confess I did but chose to rejoin your charming animosity in spirit if not in vulgarity.

Frost is a name. It is a name shared by poets, scientists and likely plumbers as well as many other professions. It is in fact my name and to be prefaced by the honorific mister. It is distinguishable from other seemingly similar names you might be familiar with in that it is a name rather than a nom de plume such as... Māchinā. I fear you will simply bear the cross.

Hey, he keeps calling me Jenny Paper. I guess it's just his style. Then again, he has quite a colorful personality. So I think comic book references are probably par for the course for him as well.

Oh no.

Not another pompous hyper-intelligent windbag in love with his own synapses and determined to make everyone realise his intellectual magnificence. Please, not that. Anything but that!

At least Machina and Access don't have to use long words to prove how smart they are.

As the Chillmeister says: You must be in Utopia.

I am not currently with Utopia.

I am not a hyper intellectual. Not in the accepted sense. I haven't taken an IQ test lately but I would guess it still falls somewhere in the range possible to humanity.

The ability to use the english language with some precision and without resorting to ambiguity, vulgarity or toilet references is not a handicap.

Civilized behavior may be new to some of you but new experiences are how we learn. I understand the seemingly anonymous nature of the opnet allows rudeness to be seen as learned or worldly. However none of you are truly anonymous. Eh, "Sun God"?

The "band and counter" response is not in any way unusual other than its normally not encountered except in "closed" groups. An opnet site open to any nova with a computer is not a closed group. If that's a problem for anyone I suggest you learn to deal with it

No I don't feel as if I arrived at the party naked. However thank you for your concern and the introduction to obscure 20th century comic book characters.

How I choose to announce myself is my own affair. Some may realize the reason for doing it in this manner. Some may not. In either case its unlikely to be something that anyone would find life altering even mildly astounding. Most won't care even when they do know. That was not the point.

Now with all due courtesy I would cautiously advise those of you with issues, to deal with your own issues as if the issues really were your own to deal with. It hasn't been a pleasure to meet all of you but it has been a pleasure to meet some and I'm sure you all have reasons for reacting as you do.

It's because you've got designs on me, Jenny Paper. I understand, you know, it's hard to keep yourself in check around this much sheer, unbound manliness, but please, show a little dignity. I know you dames tend to chuck your self-respect out the window when a tough-talkin' mug starts to get a little rough, but you've got to spend more time focusing on getting ahold of yourself and less time on wantin' to get ahold of me. Trust me, sister, I'd only break your heart.

I returned on my own terms, just like I left. My reasons are mine, but the fact that you don't know where I've been, what I've been doing or even that I left says an awful lot about how quick you are on the uptake. Good to know I still stand head and shoulders above the rest of you fucking intellectual slugs.
