scotch. just wanted to come out here and say that, although people think that eric is a completely awful person and nothing he does should be condoned (which he is and nothing he does SHOULD be condoned), he’s not a lost cause. there are parts of eric that can change, parts that can make him a better person, and here’s why i think so and why i like to dive into eric’s personality so much.
i live with someone who has many of the same problems that eric has. the asshole i live with, let’s call him M, actually has more that actually can categorize him as much worse, in some respects. lemme show you a compare and contrast between eric and M
from watching this show numerous times over and paying attention to eric very carefully, i can tell you that eric is OBEDIENT DEFIANT, NARCISSISTIC, and SOCIOPATHIC. i say sociopathic instead of a sociopath because he is capable of harboring genuine emotions for a person, even though he very easily can disconnect enough to throw away a person’s life if it suits his needs. he is MANIPULATIVE as well and that definitely comes with the sociopathy. but he is also very OBSERVANT and very TRAUMATIZED. he has had to put up with many things in his life, all coming from liane’s inability to be a proper parent what with her sleeping with every man, bringing them in, and being known for drug and alcohol abuse. i make these claims because he is capable of showing empathy or care to another living thing/person, even if it can come off as incredibly twisted. and one more thing that i can definitely say eric is, is that he’s incredibly ACTIVE. now i don’t mean he’s going out running and exercising and junk, but when this kid decides to do something, you know damn well it’s gonna fucking get done and no one is going to like the end result except him.
M, on the other hand, has some of what eric has and more. like eric, he is OBEDIENT DEFIANT. where we start to differ, however, is that instead of being sociopathic, he is a full blown SOCIOPATH, completely disconnected and incapable of feeling any sense of sympathy or empathy towards another living being. and unlike eric who is narcissistic, M has NARCISSISTIC PERSONALITY DISORDER. along with that, he has a CORTISOL ADDICTION, which to sum it all up means that he is addicted to the hormone that reacts to stress. if he does have some sort of stressor that triggers high levels of cortisol within his body, he crashes and becomes a demented motherfucker, which then causes drama with my mother or whoever else he is targeting and then ups the cortisol right back up. i only know about the cortisol addiction, and it’s definite existence, because he had gone to a sort of training thing and the people there actually tested this and told him that he had the highest base cortisol levels of anyone they’ve met. he thought it was something to be proud of as he interpreted it as being able to work very well under stress, however my mother and i now know one of the many reasons behind our suffering with him. unlike eric, he is not traumatized, but he is very observant. and his personality ranges from TAME and SOMEWHAT QUIET to CALCULATING, DISRUPTIVE, CONNIVING, or even to PETTY AND WHINY. he has many different sides of him that come from his judgment of a situation and how he feels like reacting to it. the big thing that makes M different when it comes to all these parts of his personality is that he’s LAZY. he does not think he should have to do any work that he doesn’t feel like doing. he’s the kind of guy that thinks starving himself will make him lose weight and then give up in two days because it didn’t work. or he’ll exercise for a day and say he hurt himself and then never touch the equipment again. when he wants something done, it rarely actually gets done by his own hands or even by someone else’s, but he’ll scream and yell about it anyway.
some of eric’s personality traits can be changed, such as his bigotry because that was completely SELF TAUGHT. M on the other hand LEARNED IT FROM HIS PARENTS and thinks he is completely justified because his family is exactly the same way. i have lived with M many years and I have lived watching cartman for even longer. psychoanalyzing the two of them and comparing and contrasting, eric is in many ways able to be saved where M is not.
reblog this if you’re an indie roleplaying blog with both an LGBTQIA+ mun and LGBTQIA+ muse(s).
i’m trying to get an idea of how large portion of the indie rp community consists of queer muses being written and represented by queer people themselves. allies, don’t interact.
scotch. so i’m actually working today ( seriously like actually working instead of sitting here and fucking around ) so i won’t be able to do much but!!! gonna be on here tonight def
casual reminder that eric should have lichtenberg scars running down his back from being struck by lightning at the end of the first episode of the fifteenth season
casual reminder that cartman’s heterochromia is because one of his eyes is kenny’s. he had lasik surgery when he was eight and it only worked on one of his eyes. the other one was really bad and his vision kept deteriorating. kenny died around the time after he healed and he brought kenny’s head to the ophthalmologist and underwent ocular surgery to replace the eye.
“ i’m as good at making games as i am at playing them. when it’s not chinpokomon, i do computer games. got a shit ton of mods i made to make the games better. ”
@non-conformiist FELT LIKE DEALING WITH CARTMAN’S TRASH
whether it was the sound of the crack or the smack itself that he was feeling through his teeth, eric wasn’t sure. whatever it was, it made him want to take that can and break it over michael’s head. instead, he rubbed at the bump that was forming and cursed. “ i fought with you before -- so i know what to fucking expect now. ”
