What I am not:
editSometimes, people can't get it through their silly heads that real life is not the Wikipedia. They try to make people fit into their little way of thinking because these people are complete anti-social nimrods (or else claim to have Aspergers. FFS, what a stupid excuse.) Very well. Since you can't deal with common sense, I'll do something in the style of WP:NOT.
Elaragirl is not a teacup
editI will not shatter when exposed to unpleasant truths. I thrive on sarcastic rejoinders. I don't really give a fuck if you personally attack me, nor do I give a shit if you don't like me. In fact, I can honestly say that I'd much rather prefer you to make your personal attack and announce how you feel, rather than pasting on a fake smile, and digging up 40,000 diffs to wikiassasinate me at ArbCom with. Either way, you won't see me running to PAIN or AN/I if you call me a bitch. People who use WP:NPA as a weapon to get people banned after goading them to it should be thrown out of Wikipedia. If you push me, you'll get a response, jack.
=(Some people try to get people not to attack so that I won't breach NPA when I reply , which might get me blocked. I regard this as gaming the Elara.)
Elaragirl is not a goddess
editI am often wrong, and I have made tons of mistakes , both in judgment and in action, before. I will do so in the future. People who seem to think that, even when I break rules, I'm not doing wrong, need to understand that if I break a rule I do so knowingly. If I get blocked for it, then I accept that. Rules and laws are there for a reason. They entail punishments. If I fuck something up, I don't want my friends rushing to defend me if I clearly fucked something up.
Elaragirl is not a nice person always
editSometimes I do things that can be seen as cruel. I have no interest in maintaining people's polite fictional reality if they are clinging to a fool assertion that is flat out wrong. If that means I come off as mean...tough shit. I don't have time to coddle your little goddamned personal needs when your problems are about a billionth of mine. Don't expect me to respect you if you're doing something stupid.
Elaragirl is not about the civility
editCivility for the sake of civility is bullshit. The idea that if you coach everything in nice language that all the bad feelings will go away should be left on MeatballWiki, which is full of fucking mental cases anyway.
NO ONE GIVES A FUCK ABOUT CIVILITY IN REAL LIFE. Get over your own little world. If you do something outrageously stupid, and then have the unmitigated gall to assume bad faith towards me when I try to fix it, I'm not going to bother with civility. Civility is shown only to those who deserve respect and intellect, otherwise, you'll get the flat truth. If you can't take it, don't come to my user page fucking with me.
I don't like Calton at all, but I'll give him credit for not bothering to coddle idiots and fools.
Elaragirl is not a gangbang
editAnd while I'm sure this is going to piss a lot of people off, I'm not going to act like some females on Wikipedia who have to constantly flaunt the fact that they're a woman, flirting with everyone and making vague, slightly creepy overtures to young men. The problem with this is that there's only one reason to be doing it, and we don't need to go into that on wiki, do we?
I limit that sort of shit to Gracenotes ... but alas, my pining is for naught. :p
Elaragirl is not dispute resolution
editFor fuck's sake, people, if you come asking me for my advice, don't start a war on my user talk. I'm not an admin. I'm certainly not always going to be neutral. If you're here to ask me about 9/11, or to bitch about some admin you hate, please -- save us both some trouble, and just don't fucking post. If you're from ED, save us both some trouble, don't fucking post. In fact, if you're not absolutely certain I actually want to hear what you're saying, please remember: Elara does not give a fuck.
Elaragirl is not fucking censored
editI use harsh, even foul language. Does it offend you? Fuck off! If it offends you, don't read it. I'm not here to make you feel good. If I shock you, it's to let you know I'm here.
Elaragirl is not a court case
editI don't have to justify myself to you. Pissed at my oppose vote at RfA? Too bad. By god, I wouldn't trust 90% of the people applying for admin status to piss on themselves, much less manage Wikipedia properly. If I don't like something you've done, I will oppose you. I don't want to hear justifications, or explanations. Just accept it. If it's a day before the vote closes and I'm the tiebreaker or something dramatic like that, then you can come pester me.
