Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme. Your unfunny, forced memes also fall under this rule.
Do not treat this comm like your personal therapist. Threads about nonfictional suicide, self injury, rape, and abuse will be deleted. There are better resources out there for you.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.
Shut up about Tumblr. If it's not a discussion about Tumblr RP it will be deleted.

imagine that you have a friend who lives in paris. no, not paris, france, i mean one of the very many parises in the usa. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paris_(disambiguation) or we could use another example like columbus https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Columbus but we're not talking about the one in ohio, the most well known one.

every time "paris" comes up in the news, they throw a fit because "ugh, it's always those fucking french people, why doesn't the news ever talk about MY paris???" even if their "paris" is a tiny-ass town that has nothing of interest.

in your opinion, how annoying is this?

Moderately. Not something I'd pick a fight over or anything but I'd eventually start seething every time it happened.

Very annoying and usually far from the only time they make things be about them. I also admit, I don't get why anyone would want their town to be in the news because that's usually not a good thing.

Because they want sympathy like they're suffering so much

I have a friend who always talks about shootings or fires in towns miles away from her's and will go "oh I used to know someone who lives there I'M SO SCARED GUYS" or something equally embarrassing

not really worth bringing up but still pretty annoying

Exceedingly. Speshul snowflake alert levels of annoying.

I think I'd find it amusing.
