He was. But it was hard to see that until it was too late. He was good at making people feel like they were everything, especially when they didn't have much else.
[And then quickly making them feel like they were nothing. But Cliff already knows that part.]
Nice to know he has better.
I wouldn't worry too much about ruining anything. If he was that cold, he'd have come back earlier. We're not very cold tolerant. And whatever reason he had to avoid you well he's too forgiving. I was too forgiving. But you're a good enough kid that it was probably him that owed the apology anyway. And if not, I trust it wasn't anything too serious.
yeah that whole too forgiving thing means you shouldn't assume it was him that fucked up
[Why is Héctor like this!!!]
you know I get mad and pop off he was trying to look out for me and wound up putting himself down in the process when I brushed him off he's the good kid
I didn't. I said, "if not". But even if I hadn't, just because I was too forgiving doesn't mean I didn't make plenty of mistakes on my own. I've never been the good kid. I'm going off what I know about me.
you ever figure it’s because you were told shit like that all the time that you came up with that like what was the point just do whatever not saying you didn’t make trouble but you didn’t go messing around the way my friends and I do
What? You mean like stealing, drinking, causing small catastrophes? No, I think I just wanted things I didn't have and didn't have the sense to think ahead.
alright funny guy well I'm getting away with it longer in ways you never could you've never outran a police car have you? anyway my point is that if I'm supposed to be a good kid then Teto is, too
Wouldn't outrunning the cops and getting away with things count as staying OUT of trouble? I mean, if you're not caught, it's not trouble, is it? Plus, if you're going to set impossible bars, I can too you know I've got an extensive rap sheet you couldn't hope to beat.
But, your defence of him is kind and sort of roundabout flattering. I have no plan to demonize him and have neither the will nor ability to punish him. You don't need to worry about defending him to me.
Hmm... well... They started to in the later years but we get technology slower over there. With the early models, just about anybody could outrun those. There's a number of larger alebrijes but only one Pepita, thankfully.
a dude who has a shitty day at work and when he comes home he's a jerk to his family but then he feels bad about it and was going to jump off a bridge I think so an angel shows up to stop him by telling him all the good he's done in his life or maybe that was before the shitty day at work? I don't really remember either way he goes to a world where he never existed and everyone is miserable because he wasn't there to do something or stop something, so he clicks his heels together and says there's no place like home (except that's The Wizard of Oz) and he wakes up again, goes to be nice to his family, and saves the town from an evil bank man every time a bell rings an angel gets his wings the end
it was a REALLY shitty day at work I guess? dude I can't make it through the whole thing in one sitting, I don't know anything more than what I gave you
Christmas movie. Got it. Do you think they celebrate that here? They did in Hell, if you could believe that In the worst ways, of course, and Lucifer spends the whole month mopey and miserable, but still, Christmas in Hell.
I always forget about that Halloween thing. The demons loved that one, but that's not particularly shocking. I can't believe it's nearly that time of year already.

but I guess you need engineers and inventors to die before you can really make stuff
and hey don't talk shit about my pal just because she'd eat you
no subject
Just saying!
But yes, things tend to trickle in slower like that.
Plus with everyone being more old-fashioned.
no subject
like how old people can't get over Elvis, the Beatles, Sinatra, Queen, and shit like that
stop watching A Wonderful Life on tv it's boring
no subject
Great news.
I haven't seen any of those.
Not even one.
no subject
well the first four are singers and bands
but you'd probably like It's a Wonderful Life even though it sucks

You're really selling it to me.

...You'd think he'd just apologize to his family first instead of trying to jump off a bridge.
I mean, surely that would be easier.

I'll ask Nekane about it.

it's literally about god and shit
and making people work instead of spending time with their families
I don't know about here though
I guess we'll find out if Halloween happens since that's first

You know what, you've got me there.
I always forget about that Halloween thing.
