you're just like everybody else

So, yesterday was a friend of mine's birthday, and he spent it as he does many Saturdays, playing excellent music in an all-ages club. Just to note: there is nothing wrong with this. That isn't what this post is about.

This is:

[15:17] Jxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: um
[15:17] Jxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: is this a childrens disco?
So remember when I said it was an all-ages club? It's an all-ages club that generally caters to the under-four-foot set, but the kids are friendly and the music is good. I'm usually tied up on Saturdays when he does his set, so I've missed a lot of his DJing, but like I said, this time he personally invited me, and it was his birthday, and I wasn't about to say no.
[15:17] dxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: everyone is welcome!
[15:17] sxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: this is the [name of club]
[15:17] Bxxxxxxxx Cxxxxxxxx: YESH
[15:17] Emilly Orr: Yep.
[15:17] Emilly Orr: So if you can't size down, at least dress PG
I didn't think saying that was unreasonable. It is an all-ages club.
[15:17] Bxxxxxxxx Cxxxxxxxx: Where kids rule, but adults are cool too
[15:17] Jxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: :|
Enter Idiot J. Idiot J didn't seem to like the fact that it was an all-ages club.
[15:18] Emilly Orr: First time I came, a friend brought me. We were both older.
[15:18] Emilly Orr: [Jxxxxxx], if it really bothers you, this is also a charity event. All bodies welcome to give to charity.
[15:19] Wxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: I have a white van, and some candy. Any kids want some candy?
Enter Idiot W. You know that adage, there's always one more idiot? We seemed to get a lot of them in the last half hour of the set.
[15:20] Bxxxxxxxx Cxxxxxxxx: Someone wants a ban from here.
Yes, yes, they're begging for it.
[15:20] Emilly Orr: [Wxxxxxx], these are savvy kids, they're not interested.
[15:21] xxxxxxx Txxxx: Where's van? I like to bite into snack vans. :3
Rawr!
[15:22] dxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: we have a giant cat on standby and we're not afraid to use it :)
[15:22] dxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: *giggles*
[15:22] xxxxxxx Txxxx: Cat? Where?
[15:22] dxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: sorry, no cats here
[15:22] xxxxxxx Txxxx: Well I suppose a fox is a dog running on cat software.
[15:22] dxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: at least no non-disguised ones :D
[15:23] dxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: oops fox my bad :D
[15:23] Emilly Orr ponders. Well, catlike?
Because to go dance in the club, I'd taken off the human guise, and climbed into a much shorter Kemono with the anime Venus head. But with tail and ears, so I was definitely cat-esque, if not exactly cat.
[15:24] xxxxxxx Txxxx: I'ma silver fox but I came here red to not be called a wolf and now I'm a cat. lol
[15:24] xxxxxxx Txxxx: *mews*
[15:24] Axxxxxx Fxxxxx: These things happen
[15:24] Bxxxxxxxx Cxxxxxxxx: [Txxxx]'s a cool cat
[15:24] Axxxxxx Fxxxxx nods
[15:24] dxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: sorry [txxxx], its the DJs poor eyesight
It's not always easy to determine species in a dance club with a lot of flashing lights.
[15:29] Jxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: why are we still here
[15:29] Jxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: this is like
[15:29] Jxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: club peed
Because you're an idiot?

About this time I sent a private IM to Idiot J:
[15:30] Emilly Orr: Listen. You don't like it, you can go.
[15:30] Emilly Orr: But it's the DJ's birthday, so don't make a fuss here.
[15:30] Jxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: sorry
[15:31] Emilly Orr: The music is good, the people are friendly, you don't have to date anyone on the dance floor.
Why is this hard to understand? It's not hard.

And then...
[15:32] lxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: AH!! :o!
[15:32] mxxxxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: EEEeeeeekkkk!!!!
[15:32] Emilly Orr: Uhhh...
[15:32] Emilly Orr: Is this from one of our two troublemakers?
Because I only knew of the two idiots at this point. So what's happening--that no one is seeing, because I couldn't even get the photo function to open--is someone bombed the center of the dance floor with a griefing object, that spawned zombies and thundering shards of brightly glowing glass. It went off three times, and each time pushed us farther and farther off the dance floor, until all of us were literally pressed flat against the walls of the club.
[15:33] lxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: omggg
[15:33] Axxxxxx Fxxxxx: Its a generic off the shelf grief tool attack!
[15:33] Axxxxxx Fxxxxx sighs
[15:33] Emilly Orr: Yeah, but why?
[15:33] Axxxxxx Fxxxxx: I don't think there needs to be a why...
I always think there needs to be a why, because it's both more baffling, and more contentious, thinking people are just doing this with zero thought whatsoever.
[15:33] dxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: who was that
[15:33] oxxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: wtf
[15:34] sxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: Its bibble
[15:34] sxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: she's outside
Just outside of the club, where Mistah G with the banhammer couldn't reach her. And since Bibble (full name given later) was the griefer who owned the object, Bibble does not get anonymity.
[15:34] lxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: laggg
[15:34] xxxxxxx Txxxx: who is doing this?
[15:34] Jxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: swat
Or Bibble, AKA, Idiot B, who came with Idiot J and Idiot W and stayed outside. Which meant they planned this.
[15:35] Gxxxxx Exxxxxx: banned
[15:35] dxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: thx [gxxxxx]
[15:35] mxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: thank you, [gxxxxx]
[15:35] Gxxxxx Exxxxxx: it was ilbrendenli (Bibble)
AKA, Idiot B, the owner of the griefing object that lagged out the club for no good damn reason.
[15:36] bxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: yes my eyes and ears thank you
[15:36] Gxxxxx Exxxxxx: he he
[15:36] Gxxxxx Exxxxxx: I don't even bother talking to those people anymore
[15:36] Axxxxxx Fxxxxx: Its never worth talking to them
[15:37] Gxxxxx Exxxxxx: lift my axe and they're gone
[15:37] dxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: thumbs up
[15:37] mxxxxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: Go go [Gxxxxx]!
[15:37] Gxxxxx Exxxxxx: they need the attention, feed the monster, watch it grow
[15:37] Bxxxxxxxx Cxxxxxxxx: What'd I miss?
[15:37] sxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: Zombies
[15:37] Bxxxxxxxx Cxxxxxxxx: ah, ok
[15:37] Nxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: make a big spoffer and they think em are hack gods
[15:37] Nxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: o m g!
[15:37] sxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: just another day in SL :D
[15:37] Axxxxxx Fxxxxx: A generic off the shelf grief attack tool
Not even a particularly creative one.
[15:38] xxxxxxx Txxxx: lol so 2004
[15:38] Emilly Orr: Thank you, [Gxxxxx].
[15:38] Jxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: this is a generic off the shelf pedo convention
SHUT UP.
[15:38] Emilly Orr: Will you STOP, [Jxxxxxx]? For the love of all things. No one is interested in dating you.
[15:38] axxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: I reported you all
I doubt that.
[15:38] dxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: the axe is poised [gxx]?
[15:39] Emilly Orr: Please do tell me it is
[15:39] axxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx whispers: [N*gga] why this sim full of pedophiles
[15:39] axxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: how did all you pedo's meet up
[15:39] Emilly Orr: You're a jerk
He really was. They both were. I despair of any troll who proves out to be a being capable of rational thought.
[15:39] Gxxxxx Exxxxxx: it's very sharp [Dxxx] :D
[15:39] Sxxxxx Axxxxxx: Hello everyone..
[15:39] Jxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: I don't want to date none of this children
[15:39] Jxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: who do you think i am
An idiot?
[15:39] Jxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: you silly mare
Cat, thank you.
[15:39] Emilly Orr: Good, then stop complaining
[15:39] Jxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: i don't have a van parked round the corner
[15:39] axxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: emily here trying to date kids
You can shut the hell up, too.
[15:39] Jxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: like all these other people
[15:39] axxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: sick [f*ck]
[15:39] Dilly the Swear Llama: [axxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx] has just said a badword, they need to pay the swear jar L$10!!
Bet they won't.
[15:39] axxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: emily why u wanna date kids
[15:39] Jxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: do you all take names out of a raffle
[15:39] Jxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: at the end of the night
[15:39] Gxxxxx Exxxxxx: another one bites the dust
Mistah G was doing what he could, but apparently it takes more now to set up and execute bans now.
[15:40] Emilly Orr shakes her head and gives up
[15:40] Emilly Orr: Not worth the drama
[15:40] Jxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: and you select them that way
[15:40] Emilly Orr: But keep going, [Jxxxxxx] you'll be next
[15:40] Jxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: next for what
[15:40] Jxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: van loving?
[15:41] xxxxxxx Txxxx: I'm Glad [Gxxxxxx] is here when the mentally ill show up to spice it up :3
[15:41] Jxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: smell my hankey
[15:41] Jxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: it's magical
Like I said, no rational thought.
[15:41] Gxxxxx Exxxxxx: there is plenty of room on the ban list
[15:41] Gxxxxx Exxxxxx:
[15:42] Emilly Orr: [Gxxxxxx], I'll enthusiastically volunteer [Jxxxxxxx] for your ban list
[15:42] Jxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: i'm fine where i am
Far from.
[15:42] sxxxxx Rxxxxxxx tosses [Gxxxxx] the "Banhammer'
[15:42] Jxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: no neeed to ban
Every need to ban.
[15:42] Emilly Orr: Then behave.
[15:43] Jxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: is that what you tell the kids
[15:43] Jxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: before you towelflick them into the van
I don't even know what that means.
[15:43] Gxxxxx Exxxxxx: executed
[15:43] Emilly Orr: THANK you
[15:43] Gxxxxx Exxxxxx: :D
And with that, Idiot J was gone.
[15:43] Gxxxxx Exxxxxx: any more volunteers?
[15:43] Gxxxxx Exxxxxx: he he
[15:44] sxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: Thats was a nice headshot [Gxxxxx]
[15:44] Gxxxxx Exxxxxx: he he
[15:44] Emilly Orr: Indeed.
[15:44] Sxxxxx Axxxxxx: Sorry all we aren't welcome i guess
Not if you're part of Idiot J, Idiot W, and Idiot B.
[15:44] Sxxxxx Axxxxxx: [15:41] [axxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx]: why u got a sim full of kids
[15:41] axxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: are you sleeping with em all
[15:42] sxxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: excuse me? ain't my sim
[15:42] sxxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: thanks!
[15:42] axxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: Why u hanging out with children
[15:42] axxxxxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: u sick [f*ck]
[15:44] Dilly the Swear Llama: [Sxxxxx Axxxxxx] has just said a badword, they need to pay the swear jar L$10!!
[15:44] Emilly Orr: Nope, one doofus still here
Then Idiot J IMed me back:
[15:45] Jxxxxxx Rxxxxxxx: why did you ban me
[15:46] Emilly Orr: I didn't, I'm not a mod here, but you were being rude.
So I started yesterday getting bounced from a group, while Peppah asked for any more volunteers, and ended the day encouraging someone else to ban people, while they asked for more volunteers.

Synchronicity is odd at times.
