Why don't I do something about it?

Oh? Am I not saving you fast enough? Maybe I'll get around to it in, like, 5 years or so...
Hym "Me? Oh, nobody. Just a meta/hypertext writing genius who has been made into a literal archetypal figure (the intimations of which range from stioc, monomaniacal hero to narcissistic superman). I may or may not have convinced the world's most famous atheist that the creature is real and I made the world's most famous clinician into several anime characters in his peripheral association to me. If you're trying to punish me for this then I'm at least Plato-adjacent (the poison is just a slower acting one). I would say that it's working pretty well, I mean, nobody's gotten raped or murdered by me yet. So that's pretty good... And why don't I do something about it?... You want me to fix the inherent corruption of man?.... Because... it's not the church that is the problem. It's the constrained malevolence that resides in the hearts of all men... And I can't even get you flesh-sacks to give me the credit that I'm due. Let alone get them to stop being evil filth-monkey abominations." 🤷

There's literally nothing I can do about it (There's something he can do about it)

Yeah I saw a meme that went along those lines. I'm not doing that.
Hym "You see: There's literally nothing I can do about it (There's something he can do about it) 👈 That right there is YOUR ego. That's the little voice in your head. I say something. You tell yourself the opposite. The reality is in fact the thing I said. You prompt me to do something about it. I already said the thing that is commensurate with what is actually the case and, therefore, have no choice but to repeat myself. OK. I'll do the only other thing I can do which is: tell you something else that is non-contradictory. That being 'Stop stalling and do the thing I said."

murderhobo 

In a tabletop game, a murderhobo is a player who murders NPCs indiscriminately. This is normally derogatory, referring to a player who totally ignores quests, dialog, backstory, trade, world building etc.

The term is most common with Dungeons and Dragons, but it can be applied to most RPGs where the player is allowed to kill most quest-giving NPCs and NPC traders. E.g. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Divinity original sin.
