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.

Coal has had one very angry troll for the past few days and a bunch of people keep taking their bait.

no, the neuroticism on display was very much coming from both sides

drink pee

DA

I'm pretty sure I've seen this troll on FFA too, even if I don't recall them wanking on this topic there. They're not as extra on FFA, because the mods are going to shut down anyone who throws around the term "mentally ill" to describe people who reject giftfics. But the style (unsupported assertions of moral superiority paired with overt contempt for people who disagree with them) is pretty familiar.

Oh shit, you're right.

This is literally everyone who frequents either failmeme or coalmeme and most of the Yuletide and EAD Discords.

Yolo.

Absolutely wild to read through this thread and see coalies conclude that the person saying it’s best to leave a polite comment on an unwanted gift and move on is the troll.

Yes, because that's all "they're" saying

Absolutely wild to see you self-reply like this.

There really is a subset of exchange participants who go absolutely insane if you suggest their overly complex, passive-aggressive, non-communicative way of doing things is both rude and miserable.

Ah, it's you.
