coaltide | Morbane's coal

In quantum wankchanics, Morbane's coal is a thought experiment, sometimes described as a paradox, of quantum wankerposition. In the thought experiment, a hypothetical gift may be considered simultaneously both the fic of your dreams (TFOYD) and coal, while it is unread state, as a result of its fate being linked to a random subatomic event that may or may not occur.

The Coaltide interpretation implies that, after a while, the gift is simultaneously TFOYD and coal. Yet, when a coalie clicks on their gift, the coalie sees the gift either TFOYD or coal, not both TFOYD and coal. This poses the question of when exactly quantum wankerposition ends and reality resolves into one possibility or the other.

On a scale of 1-10, how pissed is their recip going to be with this?

stop

I'd say on a scale of 1-10, somewhere between 'stop using anon spaces to get off on people telling you how much you suck' and 'fuck off forever' but that's just an estimation.

Okay, I have to ask. I see this link being posted repeatedly like it's some kind of a gotcha. Is this supposed to imply you think I'm her? Because if so, you really need to up your game and learn to spot her better. You've gone full paranoid, thinking everyone's her. (Or hey, maybe YOU are her! In which case I repeat my "fuck off forever".)

My bad. I feel like I not that good at spotting her. I'll try better in the future.

CYRT

Aw, don't worry. I'm sure at least some of those have been correct, if it's any consolation.

What are her tells?

GO AWAY FISHSPEAKERS. FUCK OFF

No, you first, real fishspeakers. SHOUTING ISN'T THE DISGUISE YOU THINK IT IS.

Just chill, for Godsakes.

I think at this point fishspeakers is the one actually doing it to shut down discussion of how crappy their fics actually are. It would be like them.

Hi fishspeakers. You're not being subtle.

+1

No one cares about the fic you write. I assume anyone saying anything about how bad her fics are her.

I think it's her.

The problem is that FS also talks about how much she and her writing suck.

Yeah, it's really annoying because her writing actually does suck.

Go away.

Everyone flying off the handle about this: you're giving her what she wants, because nobody else can talk about how her fic sucks now. And it does. She was originally doing it to try to get reassurance, now she's doing it because she knows nobody will do that.

Again, it's really annoying because we all know that writing is actually bad. At least she has enough self awareness to recognize that.
