shitposts and ideological arguments

THE JAMJAR NETWORK POST MEME


I know 'em, you know 'em, we all know 'em. Those networks posts that don't always make perfect IC sense, but they're forever popular because they're so damn fun. "Hypothetical" moral questions. Accidental videos. 3AM oversharing. Effortposts. Contrived pleas for advice. Love 'em or hate 'em, jamjar networks are like...the peanut butter to DWRP's jelly. Or something?


HOW TO PLAY:
- Toplevel with a network post. Conversations take place in generic assumed jamjar settings where everyone's in (roughly) one place and can text each other.
- If you have any preferences about the genre or specifics of that generic assumed jamjar, or if you want it to be in the setting of an established game, or anything like that, say so.
- Reply to people's network posts.
- INSTANT GRATIFICATION

...Ah. Humor as a defence mechanism. He'd known people like that... one of which he didn't want to think of.]


It's fine, it wasn't exactly supportive stuff. I'm not the best at that.

[Working on it, but sometimes he's still too blunt... Delicate feelings is not something he's great with.]

But if you're able to see this sort of stuff already, kid, I'm sure you'll be alright.

[There was a long, long pause as Dojima debating... what to say next.]

If you need to talk things out... I can at least listen.

No it was fine! It's just...I overthink things. Seriously,
thank you.


[And that actually...does make him feel better, the comment about him being alright. He's never thought of that quality as an asset before.

Part two throws him for a loop, because those words usually come out of his mouth and being suddenly on the other end is kind of...]


That's really generous of you.

[He feels like this guy wouldn't be saying it if he knew what he was getting into.

...But he wants to accept.]
