Tell us about your membership bling!

Then how'd I earn these?

The only thing wrong with the Rep thing is that I can't give you a second one. There should be a time limit...say six months...after which you can be anointed a second time!

@Fr0d0: I'm fairly certain that Min didn't mean it, but I'm going to pretend he did just out of my desire to feel better

Off topic ventage: I couldn't have imagined a better hell than this place... and the worst part is this: we were emergency closed on our opening day. Never before in the history of the eastern cook inlet below the Blanchard Line. Fucking hell. Oh, and I've been working for free since the 20th, so that's really making me feel good about enduring the unceasing emotional bludgeoning I go through. I've been *this* close to packing up and leaving this state for the last two weeks, but I keep reminding myself that if I do that now: I'll have just barely enough money to make it this year.

So I can chose between suffering horribly for the next month and be safe monetarily for the rest of my life, or opt out of the depression this is going to land me in until October and fight my way like a normal poor human being.



Obviously the first choice wins out... but damn, if my parents wanted to be a part of my life: they screwed the pooch with the fat end of a war maul.

In all honesty, yeah I love getting rep. It's fucking great. It may seem incredibly sad to people, but I like knowing that someone else enjoys what I bring to the forum enough to actually take the time to tell me about it.

It always manages to bring at least a little smile to my face. On more depressed days, I've been known to expand the pages of my reps, and slowly read through them from the first to the newest one.

It's a nice (false?) feeling of being appreciated or liked. And then I would drown myself in the world of a video game while gorging so hard on junk food that I'm seriously surprised that I don't weigh 600 pounds. Which would only depress me more, feeding into yet more eating.

Napoleon obviously did what?

Napoleon obviously fought wars due to his inferiority complex. I totally understand the poor guy, but all of my anger got ripped out of me with the advent of the magical spironolactone.

To think that so much violent bloodshed could have been avoided simply by allowing Napoleon to grow into a beautiful flower.

Yes, it was hi-larious earlier today when a certain person removed one of my rep points.

Hey now, how about I replace the one I gave you with an even better one?

I might be too nice, but then I was slightly cheered to see that '81' by my name today.

I don't really care that much about the bling. It's cool, I guess. Some of the reps I've gotten made me smile. It's nice to know that people you converse with have nice things to say about you.
