My recent experiences with the parephernalia charge got me using magik like a madman. I won't go into detail, but it was the most concentrated effort I've ever made in the field of magik. That, and whatever you guys did to help gave it a huge shove in the right direction (thanks again).

The result was the situation snowballed in my favor. I was in the clear, and the school may get fucked out of some money. And my roomate may get his tuition paid for by the school.

The entire scene made me realize, yet again, that this stuff can be very, very real and nearly tangible if you try hard enough. It was also kind of scary. Suppose I put such a concentrated effort into harming someone with magik, or someone did such to a friend of mine or family. Definately a sobering experience, but at the same time kinda funny.

Cheers, man! I'm happy with the turn-out of events!

I hope soon it'll be MY time to inform a good wave of events in myu life... for now...

And, about the p**cker that did that to yu: just do a little ritual to make the things s/he wanted to do with you come back to him/her... it'll suffice.

Cheers, man...

So it works, huh? Suppose you put such a concentrated effort into making your life fan-fucking-tastic? The possibilities are endless!

If they deserve it, The Payback (cue James Brown!) will be forthcoming whether our Free Man is conscious of it or not.

See, my original plan for revenge was pretty simple. I was just going to bang on his door and beat the living fuck out of him with a couple of friends (the whole building is full of potheads, and a narc is a danger to everyone, so there were plenty of volunteers).

But I learned that he's got something like a social disorder, sort of like he doesn't know how to act in regard to most people. Could I still beat him down like a bad habit knowing he might've just not known any better? So I decided I'm going to just set fire to his truck. I'm not sure I want to use magik to get revenge, this recent example of how potent it can be kinda freaked me out.

Free at last,free at last, thank God all mighty...

Magic for revenge purposes can rob you of your new found freedom. If you do a malicious act of power, it could end up enslaving you in a whole new way.Let it go...everything worked out for you, why fuck with it.
Believe me, anyone who knows me will have a hard time believing that I'm giving this advice. Usually I'd be the first to give detailed plans on how to exact you revenge...but this feels right.
Stay free.

Nice one, mate. You're right - revenge is superfluous: in all the ways that matter, you've already had it (in a way).

Thank you Rex! This is the point I am trying to make. Revenge is only giving in to unenlightened emotions that can tie up you up for years!
Freedom is the best revenge!

There's also a lot to be said for the freedom to kick a fucker in the balls if he
gets in your way.

What, like an autism spectrum thing? That could make a person do pretty unsociable things. If this guy's got Asberger's or something, wouldn't revenge be like punishing him for something which is already fucking large chunks of his life? Just a thought.

Get him laid and get him high instead.

Maybe he's just JEALOUS.

I agree with Grant. I think you should do what Jack suggested near the end of the Invisibles - make friends with him till he begs. You'll be helping him out by showing him how to act within society and you'll be helping the rest of your dorm since he'll be less likely to turn in people he considers his friends.

You get to instigate the healing of the body politic and everybody wins.

Or at least make him feel very paranoid.

Heh. I can just see it now...

Johnny: "Hi, Thanks for narcing on me. Will you be my friend?"

Narc: "What the fuck do you want?"

Johnny: "I want to be your best friend."

Narc: "You're doing drugs again aren't you?"

Johnny: "I baked you a loaf of banana chocolate chip bread and brought my transformers to play with. You can be the deceptacons."

While that's not what I originally meant, that would certainly fuck with his head.

beating the living fuck out of him

vs

setting his vehicle alight

um.... not seeing how either is gonna be appropriate "revenge" on someone with social problems. Most likely, you'll come off looking like a fuckhead and feeling bad about it.

I reckon go with Grants plan.... he sounds like he needs something more than an excuse to be more socially withdrawn.

I concurr. There's much to be said for the whole pouring-coals-of-fire-upon-his-head thing, by being so excruciatingly pleasant that he is wracked with guilt for months to come.

Yeah, the more I think about it, the less I want to do it. Now that I'm spending my holiday away from school, I've realized that I would more than likely feel guilty setting his truck on fire.

His roomate told me shortly before I left that he spent a year or two in a phsyciatric ward for whatever disorder he has. At the time, I didn't really think about it, but now I'd feel like an ass getting revenge. So it looks like I'm just gonna have to smoke the bastard out. I tell you, everyone'll think I've gone mad.

hee...transformers...
