MEH @ forum awards. I'm not gonna worry about voting until I've gotten around enough to be nominated for something.
I had to get up earlier than normal today, to go pick some things up and pack up another box for the move, which is coming very soon. It'll be a wierd transition, but I'll be sure to stop in and see how everyone is doing when it happens.
Well, well. The talk that makes me want to blab on about it, but then keep myself under control. I got my SECOND warning about a week ago for necroing Tipsy's "farewell" thread. I just wanted to say bye to the poor ole' asian man. I'll miss ya buddy.
Well, my first one.........well it brings back a dark story from a while back that I never want to talk much about again.
With these new mods, everything is going to be thrown off and we'll need to like be on our toes. I for one, will just be me naturally, but I'll still be careful and watch my words.....;)
Well, I'm still awaiting Xyre's response to my clan. He's been gone lately and I'll be da**ed if it gets deleted after he said I could create it. I'm just going to be optimistic and say........"He's deadly sick and he can't get on at the moment. He's having multiple seizures." Ok, maybe that wasn't funny but you have to admit it brought atleast a slight grin.
So anyway, speaking of seizures, one of my friends had one last year. It was during lunch in the cafeteria. She was up walkin' and all of a sudden, "drop" she started like jolting and vigorously shaking......it was freaky, but she's ok. I really haven't talked to her since. We've just been on seperate ends of the school, but we say "hi" every now and then. She's a pretty cool gal.
@ Tneill:
The moderators seem to think that such actions as the one that led to your second warning could also be conducted via a PM Same as with mine.

Ugh, scary stuff. It's really scary when something happens to a friend you can't control, especially when you have no idea what is happening.
I was wondering, has anybody here seen the Ask a Ninja videos? They're truly great. "I love the spunk. And don't take that out of context."
What I don't understand is why you would want to be around someone like her.
What she and her friends did was very manipulative, and could have resulted in serious injury. I'm fairly certain they didn't plan to have you pass out, and probably didn't actually discharge a firearm. But setting a potential partner up for a nasty scare in public just to "make him/her experience fear" sounds really dodgy.
I really don't get the part about her inferring that
No, really, what? Sounds like you two aren't even on the same PLANET, let alone the same page here.
Why it's so important for her that you add confusion, mistrust, and abject terror to that list, I can't begin to fathom, but she sounds like damaged goods, and you should plan to make your exit from that relationship as soon as is practical for you.
I agree, Nemcon. You may like her, but she apparently sees you as some kind of pet.

All that I yearn for, for richer or poorer, is to be the light that you see. All that I yearn for, for richer or poorer, is to be the peace that you feel. All that I yearn for, for richer or poorer, is to fill your heart on my own.
But the rainbow is an image of hope for many reasons, as it is a brilliant sight coming out of oftimes dismal weather.
@Ask a Ninja: Yes please. Comic understatement is one of my favorite forms of humor, and they do it so well.
Is it just me, or is everyone and his or her sister REALLY obsessed with thier own post count these days? Didn't used to be that way, far as I can remember. Of course, I used to post almost exclusively in CCM and the a lesser extent in the R&D thread and the Rumor Mill, all of which have much less open-ended foci.
Hey guys.. Sorry about that Psychoburner.. Alacar and I were doing that, and I guess I just thought you hadn't been around in awhile.. So, like he said, you'll be bumped up. I just can't right at the moment, as i have Preview Night for my play "Tales from The Clubroom" in a few short minutes.. and i need to take my medicine first...
Just got back from the hospital... havent' been able to breathe today and yesterday... so yeah, hospital.......I'm back tho.... still having trouble breathing but the doc says its like nervousness and acid reflux and kind of a chest cold thing causing the tightness and pressure causing me not to be able to breathe...
Just wanted to let you guys know.. I was there from 10am-4pm.

* Janus gives Omna a big yet cautious hug
If I may, you should really get some rest
* Janus fetches Omna a couch, a pair of bunny slippers and a bowl of chicken soup
I hope you're condition will turn for the better soon...
@Omna: Sounds like it's stress related. Get some rest, and take a break if possible.
@Alacar: You actually said that in the University Center today? That's pretty geeky. I say that to myself a lot, but I've never shown people the video. My friends would probably think it's stupid.
@Warnings: I have eight- six of the old warnings and two of the new infractions. Some of them were just stupid mistakes (like not completely censoring out a word), others I brought upon myself (like making a thread pretty much made to bash my least favorite politician, who isn't Bush BTW). I also got suspended for two days during this summer for racking up three warnings in under a month.
Also, if you want to see the YouTube video where I got my custom tag (now with three nominations for best custom tag!) and other funny videos, check my Extendo-Sig as well as the link that Alacar posted.
Ow Omna...that sucks to hear that you had to go to the hospital for breathing problems.
Anyways, after talking to a bunch of my friends and others, Im pretty sure that my memory lost was from me passing out, as I also mentioned in the post that i dont remember from last night. My neighbor, who is majoring to become a doctor, but is home right now for 2 weeks I was able to talk to, and thats what he thinks happens, is that I passed out and that prevented my memories or something. I really am thinking about going to a hospital tomorrow and hopefully it doesnt happen again.
I just now read Snoop's post, as I sort of accidentally skipped over it in the panic ive been through today. I really dont know if thats what she actually said, as I dont remember anything that really happened, it might have just been something getting the best of me, as everything else from that post I was able to confirm with others except that part. I really dont know if I can trust her, but I do know what its like to be stubborn and finally not want to leave a person you are with, because you keep on a chance of hope. I just want her to get back from her job so I can have a long talk with her tonight.
Also...i didnt know there was a [thread*] tag....wow, thats something new you learn everyday.
Also, Ask a Ninja is funny stuff. Very funny stuff.

Didn't even know you were sick! Awwwwwwww...:( Sounds like you have had a week from hell.
At the very least, take it easy. Your bod's trying to tell you something, I suspect, no fun being ill at all though. It doesn't seem fair, does it?
@Omna: I hope you feel better. It sounds like you're under a lot of stress; I hope you can relax somehow. Try hanging out in the Coffeehouse for a couple of hours in a row.
Early college applications are done! I can finally slow down a bit. Problem is, I missed two days of school because of this allergy, so I'm going to have to make it all up now, which is more work.
@Joyd: I haven't seen anything like that. There are usually a few people with post count obsessions, but I haven't seen an unusual number. For a while a also posted pretty much exclusively in Custom Cards (and had my own postcount obsession, which is gone now) and I didn't see a real increase when I started posting in other places.
@Warnings: I have one, a sig warning I got last December for having two banners (one in a spoiler), back when that wasn't enforced and a couple of people had that. I didn't even know that there was that rule until I got my warning.
@ Post counts:
I didn't mind my post count that much at first, but now that my custom is visible on the horizon, I look forward to actually reaching it
Post counts: They only count when you hit 1,000. Then go get your custom and be done with it. But don't ACTIVELY seek 1,000. Let it come naturally.
By the way.. OVER 3,500 posts, yo.
Omna: I'm sorry that you're not feeling well. I know you and Ryan have been through a lot and I hope you're okay. Best of luck on your play, and I hope you two can get things settled
Ask a Ninja: Love it. Genius.
MW: Yes, I said it. It is pretty geeky. And what's even better is, everyone at the Magic table got the joke. It was freaky.
*Alacar serves the HypnoToad a black coffee before running to dinner
Hey everyone. Sorta been gone all day doing the bill paying, check cashing, grocery shopping thing (here for about half an hour then gone for two then back again, rinse, repeat). It's a pain.
Anyway to sorta catch myself up:
Ask a Ninja: If they had a live bookmark I'd add them. Frickin hilarious at times.
@MW: I'm not sure to nominate you for best custom quite yet. Didn't like the video but for some reason I find myself saying that to myself when I least realize it.
@Omna: Get better! Those chest colds can stick around wayyyy too long. Especially this time of year when its just getting downright cold.
@"Old" gaming store problem: That very thing is what partially brought down this local store. The guy who ran it was more or less stealing cash from the store - which was owned by his parents. I don't believe they found out tho... but they were wondering why they weren't making much money. The fact is tho for every one thing they did have there (mostly packs) there was about 2 things that hampered customer service. A couple years back, some of the regular customers had to help the guy who ran it run the register. Not always from pure laziness tho.
@Warnings: I believe I'm still clean as a whistle....
In personal news, nothing much really worth mentioning happening around here. Some downloading of torrents and regular BS from the town (in this case the regular cancelling of trick-or-treating last night). But nothing particularly surprising for where I live.
Good grief, Omna! I hope you're feeling better. Does that happen a lot? My sister in law has two extremely rare conditions that constantly land her in the hospital. She could use a hospital buddy.

The Golden Rule of forums: If you're going to be rude, be right. If you might be wrong, be polite.
Didn't like the video but for some reason I find myself saying that to myself when I least realize it.
It sticks in your mind, doesn't it? Perhaps because it's repeated so much.
I got back from a College Democrats meeting and I'm full with pizza. I need to exercise it off tomorrow. The guest was a state representative in our area who thinks that her party has a good shot at getting the state legislature, the U.S. Senate seat, and the gubernatorial race as well as taking back the U.S. House. I'm excited for Tuesday when I can send Rick Santorum back to Virginia.
As for the nominations, I just did what came naturally to me. I DID scream "It's over NINE THOUSAND!!!!" in the University Center today.
Psychoburner, I guess you were just bumped down without much consideration. Don't worry, you'll prolly go back up or something eventually.
I just got my first warning. It was for my sig. My banner was too big. Blah. Had to squish it a little.

Time for more ToP! After dinner that is!
Windmills do not work that way!
Wombat's custom tag is from this popular video.
And the warning was just that, a minor infraction. My banner was 17 pixels too tall. That's all.
