Carl Jung is a douche.

Just kidding, Lumino. Through your cunning use of emoticons, you've shown yourself to have feelings, something everyone knows spambots will never possess. I'm putting the death beam back into cold storage until it can be used for good once more.

Are you some kind of Asexual being who doesn't like sex?

Well, doh, he's an hacker.

Who needs sex when I have The Way?

I meant that most of Cocoa's posts have to do with sex.

Irony is so gay. It's like the gayest gayness known to gay man. If Irony were any queerer it could pick my clothes and be my interior decorator. I heard irony likes to take it in the back.

Like that.

My first time was with a non-violent choir virgin.

Or that.

I’ve never seen anything so asinine or wrong-headed in my entire life. Serena was never Rhue’s first sexual experience, it should be very obvious to any astute student of “The Way” that his entrance into the sexual arena occurred with the reception of the Shadow Sword that would from that time forward come to symbolize his sexuality. If you didn’t fall asleep in class you would remember that was an event that included two men, not Serena.

Or all of this.

So one more time, for the folks who weren't here for the first time around. The PS must be Rhue because he is an intimate representation of Rhue's Id and deviant sexual awareness. As you may remember Rhue became aware of his own sexuality while he was pre-pubescent. He had the misfortune of observing a deviant sexual act between two men who were also "shadowy figures" after which one of the men "gave Rhue his sword". I'll leave you to figure that one out on your own. Just think about what your uncle did to you last family reunion.

If you're one of those Jungian douches you might interpret the PS as Rhue's "Shadow". You might say the PS is the part of Rhue that by virtue of it's Darwinian and bestial nature prevents Rhue from gaining further insights about himself. This is bullpoo, as Rhue learns plenty about himself through the course of the game.

But anyway back to stuff that isn't retarded. Rhue is unaware of his deviant sexual nature throughout the game. But wherever it goes it leaves behind a trail of victims. Simply put: deviant sexuality creates victims.

At times it is instrumental in restoring Rhue's sexual power represented by his sword. To put it in simple words: Rhue's sexual ability and his sexual deviance are intimately related and cannot exist without the other.

I won't go into detail on this point as I've already explained it perfectly in previous points, but one of the main themes of the games is Rhue's unconscious deviant nature swallowing up his more normal conscious sexuality. Just look at all the bastard things Rhue did in eps 4 and 5.

So why does Gaius tell Rhue that he is the PS? Gaius is trying to help Rhue. He knows that if Rhue is aware of the insidious nature of the PS he will be able to fight it, and perhaps win. this will benefit Rhue and society as a whole.

Frankly I'm suprised that nobody ever figured out the whole entire "purpose", if you will, of "The Way" before now. When I created the story I wanted to Parrallel Oprah Winfrey's rise to stardom after her own sexual troubles in childhood and as a young adult. How her molestation lead her to general whorishness until she overcame it and became a billonaire by acknowledging her problem and sharing it with the world. I had hoped that my allegory would be, to use the words of a certain snobish Jungian jackass, "transparent" enough for the mass market to understand. Guess not. I guess next time I'll just make some crap like "Cinderella Man".

You see what I'm getting at here?

[Wellsy]

Who needs sex when I have The Way?

Let's get one thing straight - even players of the Way need sex, even if some might loosely define "sex" to mean "jacking off to 14-year-old anime girls" or "dolphin love."

[Sarcasm]

Actually Cocoa specializes in satire, and you have just fallen for it.

I read the first page....I forgot I even posted on this....

An imaginary concept, that is.

i should porbaly mention that Cocoa majored in Journalism for a year or two and that in high school he had his own satire column in teh school newspaper. trust me he has satire nailed down and glued.

[MusashiEX]

Does he write about sex?
