Friends are overrated.

I am my own best(est?) friend on NSG... Or am I?

I don't have any friends here, on the net and almoust not in real life. My two best friends are my computer and my TV.

You need some lovin' too :fluffle:



I am the luuuuv bringer ;)

Probably. :(

Got plenty! :fluffle:

:fluffle:

Ask and you will receive.

Well done you! And you get free money! That is what a scholarship is, right? Free money?

And you do a lot more for your school than me...dedication, huh?

Yes. The great thing is that Florida has a scholarship available that covers 100% of tuition to any public college in Florida. I plan
to apply for that. The money I got last night will probably go towards books or something like that.:)

Yes.:)

Neat. You'd certainly deserve a scholarship like that.

We get those, kinda, over here, but it's (nine times out of ten) entirely dependant on your exam results. We're quantity over quality people here.

I got $400 in scholarships!:D (A check for $300 and a separate check for $100, from two different organizations or funds or whatever.)

I also got a nice plaque recognizing that I've been a tutor in the program for 3 years and a nice pin recognizing that I had outstanding attendance (missed only three times- once because I had to help set up the induction ceremony for National Honor Society, once for the State Latin Forum, and once for making up work for physics class in advance for the class time I missed during the State Latin Forum.):)

:D Today was such a good day for me.

Congratulations :) Happy for ya, kiddo :D :fluffle:

Ah. My SAT scores were well over the requirement for the 100% scholarship (1410 out of 1600 possible where 1270 was required), although plenty of other people get higher scores than that (although not too many people at my school do, but a friend of mine got a 1520 and a senior classmate got a 1550)

So how was your day today?:)

Yay!:)

You'll have to explain how they score that, seems like a whole lot of points. We just have levels 3-8 for SATs, and they're taken at age 7, 11, and 13.

So how was your day today?:)

It's rather nice for someone to ask. Thankyou! Well, it was rather good actually. No free money, but I did have double chemistry. We were covering PKa and ventured into indicators. All rather interesting actually.

I had a tutor on "Staying Safe Abroad". Well, that was pointless. Nothing I didn't know already. Stuff like, "keep your money seperated" and "give your details for cards etc. to someone at home". Common sense, really.

Oh, and I had work tonight. But it went rather quickly for once. Which was also nice.

Thankyou for asking!

Speaking of how days are going, how's yours so far?

May be completely different thing but with the same initials. Your SATs sound more like my FCAT (in Florida). It's taken every year, but the key year is 10th grade, since if you fail that and don't pass it upon retakes, you can't graduate high school. Our SATs are college entry tests that are meant to correlate with success in college.

I remember Pka, sort of. We did a lab involving it once (well, I think we were trying to find the Ka and need to use the Pka to get to it or something like that. I know it involved weak acids...)

Ah. What do you do at work (I mean what kind of work)?


Thankyou for asking!

Speaking of how days are going, how's yours so far?

It was a decent day. Not too much work. I got to play Pokemon Pearl for a while in English class since I finished the vocabulary work really early (it was easy as I knew all but one of the words already).

I'm trying to work on some physics homework now, as well.:)

It's taken every year, but the key year is 10th grade, since if you fail that and don't pass it upon retakes, you can't graduate high school.

Well, they're not that serious. Seems harsh to me. "You've failed twice! NO GRADUATION FOR YOU!"

I remember Pka, sort of. We did a lab involving it once (well, I think we were trying to find the Ka and need to use the Pka to get to it or something like that. I know it involved weak acids...

That's the one. And as for the lab work...sounds about right. Using pH and PKa to find Ka? anti-logs and things...good job I do maths.

Ah. What do you do at work (I mean what kind of work)?

I'm a lowly shop assistant at a Co-operative store. Linky (http://www.midcounties.coop/live/cme0.htm)

It was a decent day. Not too much work. I got to play Pokemon Pearl for a while in English class since I finished the vocabulary work really early (it was easy as I knew all but one of the words already).

Lucky you. Is it any good? Haven't played Pokemon since Silver came out. Then I found the PC...ah, the enlightenment.

I'm trying to work on some physics homework now, as well.:)

Ouch, physics. Glad I don't do that no more. I've kept a track on the syllabus, what are you covering now?

Well, they're not that serious. Seems harsh to me. "You've failed twice! NO GRADUATION FOR YOU!"


Well, they get more chances than just two, and it's really not a difficult test. By the way, my brother just found out that he got the highest possible score on the writing test (for 8th grade). Makes me really proud of him. I got a 5.5 on the 10th grade one (6 possible; 5.5 means that 1 grader gave me a 6 and the other gave me a 5.)

I'm so proud of my little brother! Well, I'm proud of both of them. The other one got a 100% on an algebra test that everyone else in the class did very poorly on (the brother who got a 6 on the writing test got a D.) I'm excited that they'll be at the same school as me next year, and it'll be their freshman year and my senior year.:)


That's the one. And as for the lab work...sounds about right. Using pH and PKa to find Ka? anti-logs and things...good job I do maths.


Yeah, that sounds right. It was a while ago.

Today we did a virtual lab involving spectophotometry or however it's spelled.

Ah. I'm planning on getting my first job (this summer, hopefully) at a grocery store, probably as a cashier.


Lucky you. Is it any good? Haven't played Pokemon since Silver came out. Then I found the PC...ah, the enlightenment.


It seems pretty good so far. I'm only at the point where I have 1 badge and my highest level Pokemon is level 17. Though my Abra is a level away from evolving, so that's good. Seems promising so far anyway.:)


Ouch, physics. Glad I don't do that no more. I've kept a track on the syllabus, what are you covering now?

Balance and equilibrium.

Hmm, I remember spectrophotometry. Not that hard, the teacher made us teach ourselves. Like colourimetry.

Ah. I'm planning on getting my first job (this summer, hopefully) at a grocery store, probably as a cashier.

If you can do better, I suggest you do. Being a sales assistant is NO FUN AT ALL. Admittedly, the people are nice, and if you're good at being professional, then you'll do well at it.

My younger brother has a DS, I might see if he wants it. And go you...:p



Balance and equilibrium.

Nope, never heard of it. I know plenty of people that do, so I'll ask them what it's about. Unless, of course, you'd care to tell me yourself? A little Physics tuition for me...:D

Yes.:)

Yeah.

I just need to work somewhere that is flexible about hours and such. The grocery store employs a bunch of high school students and from what I've heard is good for that sort of thing. I'm taking 7 AP classes next year, so I need plenty of time to do all of the summer assignments.

The problems I'm doing now are like figuring out where the pivot on a seesaw would be located if it's balanced and the kid on one side is 400 N and the kid on the other side is 300 N. That sort of thing. We kind of just started it.

Oh, it can be good. When the other people you work with are all really nice people, when your boss goes home every day at about 1, when it's accepted that you have a few drinks on Saturdays (sometimes Fridays as well), when you and somebody else from work take the odd sunny afternoon off and go sit outside a bar in the sun (and cover for others when they do the same), and then the people you're serving are all generally OK.

Oh, and when you're getting paid above minimum wage cash in hand.

I got me a good job.

I don't think I really have any friends on NS. I have a few things in common with people though, and there are some people I get on well with (CtoaN and a few others...Sin, Potaria, I V Stalin mainly...). And Jordaxia. Whatever she's up to.

But you're never on MSN! EVER!

I'll assume that's a lot of hours. My work were fairly flexible in that they gave me hours to put on my contract that I could work. Unfortunately, should my timetable change (it won't at this point, but if it should have), I'd have to predict it 12 weeks in advance.

Oh, that's not too bad. I overcomplicated it by thinking at a quantum level - chemistry equilibrium. You're doing what appears to be Mechanics to us.

My bestest NS friends?

Ifreann, Johnny B Goode, Minaris, Sel Appa, ISA, Londim, many others... :D :fluffle::fluffle::fluffle::fluffle:

Probably. :(

Congrats Chandelier, you are our unoficial forum crazy genius.

Now, get the money and use half to get a Wee, and the other half to get some blouses.

The Wee will help you get in touch with your body and also improve your social skills (since you can play with other people) and the blouses will come in handy when you work at the grocery shop.

Also, get ready to be hit on quite some times. Sales girls are sexy.

No. My mom said she's going to put the money in a CD and then I'll get it when I'm in college to spend on books and other stuff that I need. And I'm pretty sure the grocery store has a specific uniform to wear.

I'll probably just not notice it unless it's blatantly obvious...

I used to be Fiddlebottoms friend, but then that asshole volunteered me for all this extra work, completely dsiregarding the fact that I've already got a term paper and finals coming up in the next couple weeks. Then he got drunk over the weekend, decided to rearrange our furniture at 3 AM and bashed my face with a lamp. So, we haven't been speaking since Sunday morning.
Fiddlebottoms: can I be your friend? I need your hilarity more often, quite simply. Hands down this guy/doll's posts are make me burst. Like right then - I'm in a study room and peole stared at me. Whatevs. totally worth it. You rock, fiddles.

NS friends? Ravea, Sanct, Lasc, Kanabia. You boys make the internet a happy place.
and I miss Sdaeriji like hell. I wish I knew why he turned into an ice-cube and disapeared.

I hate this thread. I'm far too lazy to pay attention, yet far too egotistical to stay away. :(

Aye, there's the rub ...

Best friend on NSG, or on any of the NS forums?

I like plenty of NSers quite well, though I'm not going to list them because:

a) I'll spell the names wrong
b) They haven't seen fit to mention me, and
c) Some are no longer here :(

As for my bestest ever fluffified friend in the whole NSG world... I'm sure it's no surprise that Cabra falls singularly into that position.

Does that mean we are in any way related as of now? Do I have to show up at family meetings?

I like my puppets & my puppets like me.

don't know what do you want


Do I have to show up at family meetings?

don't have them, mom half of the family lives on one side of the country
dads half i have nothing to do with only hear what dum ass things they do

don't know what do you want

Sounds fine to me. Most of my 'family' members (the people I love and that nourish me like a daughter) aren't blood related to me at all.

Same goes for me concerning 'real' family!

a nice pin recognizing that I had outstanding attendance

high school should have given me an award for outstanding grades in spite of a lack of attendance

But you're never on MSN! EVER!

Sounds like more fun than quantum stuff. *shudders*

And you should definately invest in a blouse or two. They do look nice, you know. I won't use Northern Borders's term, but you'd be surprised. Looking a little more formal every now and again has it's benefits. I'll come up with some later.

Yeah, the AP classes.


They are a lot of work, but it'll be worth it if I can credits for a year's worth of college.:)

I do have a blouse or two, actually. Maybe more like 4 or 5 of them. I like looking formal. I just don't usually dress like that to school, although I do on occasion.

Ok, from now on you´re my favorite friend here on NS: a man who recognizes the value of a good blouse and nows how much Ms Chandelier´s look can improve from wearking one.

Cheers!

Good. Formal, I think, would look nice on you. Mind you, I have a habit of going to college in shirt and trousers, usually with a proper suit jacket as well. Maybe that's over the top. It does get me questions though. "why are you wearing that." "do you not own any pairs of jeans", and, by far my favourite, "oh my god what a nerd". Although that's a statement rather than a question, it does make me smile.

Glad to be of service, my good man.

No doubt.

Yeah. I'm feeling a lot more confident about the AP exams, which determine whether or not you can get college credit for it and how much credit you get, now, but I still have plenty of studying to do. I'm going to try to finish all of the chemistry homework that's due next week this weekend (homework questions due Monday, one lab report due Weds., another lab report due Fri.)

I know the schedule for my AP Exams now, too.:)

On May 11 at 8 am I have the AP US History Exam.
On May 15 at 8 am I have the AP Chemistry exam, and at noon the same day I have the AP Psychology exam. (That'll be a rather stressful day...:( )
On May 16 I have the AP English Language Exam at 8 am.
On May 18 I have the AP Latin Literature Exam at noon.
Then the week after that I have the semester exams, and that's the last week of school for me. Seniors finish school a week before the rest of us, though:)

My exams are spread out over a month. The first is May 22nd, and the last June 26th. We're expected to be in college a lot of our exam leave though, revising with our teachers, who are maintaining the normal timetable for us. Which is rather nice actually

That's kind of funny.:)

Always a pleasure to amuse.

Makes sense since my class is supposed to be college-level. :)

Our actual exams are that last week of school. We get out of school fairly early in the year here, but they're changing that for next year (which means my summer is lengthened by two weeks this year!:) )

The only two AP exams I'm worried about are the Chemistry one and the US History one (for that one mostly because it's a broad subject and you can be asked pretty much anything, whereas for the other exams it's usually more discrete- like in Latin where we know that the poems on the syllabus are the only ones we're tested on in the free response/essay portion of the test.)

Lucky you - although, I think my summer goes up by a week. Altough, by then, I may be working full time for Patheon or Cardinal Health. In a pharmeceutical and chemistry-related position, no less. Depends how they feel about it.

I'm actually terrified about my Biology exams. I need a B (second best grade) to do the course in University that I want, but I got a D in my last exam :( . It sucks because we're doing Growth, Development and Reproduction rather than Applications of Genetics, which has a lot less to learn about and much fewer terms. Stupid women outnumbering me....I hate that module so much...

Aye, indeed it does.

Well, good luck then.:)

Next year I'll be really busy. I'm planning to take AP English Literature, AP Latin Vergil, AP American Government/Economics Honors, AP Calculus, AP Statistics, AP Biology, and AP Physics. I'm excited for next year.:)

Well, good luck then.:)

Thankyou. I'll need it :p

Wow. Dang. That's....a whole lot. What's AP Latin Vergil anyway?

And don't you love how we've hijacked this thread entirely? We've got about three pages to us!

And how was your day, coincidentally?

Thankyou. I'll need it :p


You're welcome.:)


Wow. Dang. That's....a whole lot. What's AP Latin Vergil anyway?


It's a course that focuses on the Aeneid by Vergil, just as the AP Latin Literature exam focuses on the poems of Catullus and of another author (in my case Ovid.)


And don't you love how we've hijacked this thread entirely? We've got about three pages to us!

And how was your day, coincidentally?

It was pretty good, but busy. I had a quiz in psychology, then I had Latin class, then I had a test in history followed by a quiz in physics (I got a 90% on that one). Then I waited afterschool for a while playing Pokemon Pearl, and went to the AP Chemistry review session for maybe half an hour before my best friend's mother gave me a ride home. It was a pretty good day overall. :)

How was yours?

Sounds rather interesting actually. Wish they still taught latin here, I'd love to learn.


Good to see you had a nice day.


It is very interesting. I've loved Latin Literature this year.:)

:)



Well...I was up at 1-ish talking with you on here :D , which meant that I was nearly late for college (had a late start, didn't have to be in until 11 - I dragged myself out of bed at 10.10), for an hour of chemistry. Got paid today, about £250 ($500), so I went into town and did a bit of games shopping for the laptop. Just to stretch it a little. Then I had 2 hours of maths, we're doing differential equations now. :confused: :confused: :confused:

Cool.:) Are differential equations part of calculus or something else?

Edit: I have to go now. I'll be back in probably about 15 minutes.:)

Well...I was up at 1-ish talking with you on here :D , which meant that I was nearly late for college (had a late start, didn't have to be in until 11 - I dragged myself out of bed at 10.10), for an hour of chemistry. Got paid today, about £250 ($500), so I went into town and did a bit of games shopping for the laptop. Just to stretch it a little. Then I had 2 hours of maths, we're doing differential equations now. :confused: :confused: :confused:

Cool.:) Are differential equations part of calculus or something else?

Edit: I have to go now. I'll be back in probably about 15 minutes.:)

Yay, the timewarps are back! :D

And differential equations fall under calculus, yes. Things like: Find the integral of x(y+1) = 32. Usually ends in natural logarithms, which aren't so bad. Applications usually involve populations, and we did an example on a murdered body, found at 6.00 with temp. 25 deg., at 6.30, had temp. 22 deg. Find out when he died.

Interesting, but difficult. Lots of integration by parts and things.

Then I guess I have a year or so before I'll learn about that kind of thing (depending on if it's taught in AP Calculus AB or not, I guess).

We should probably continue talking like this via TG so that we stop hijacking this thread any further, though.:)

He he, I think so. We'll leave them to discuss their bestest friends, and leave the thread.

And don't you love how we've hijacked this thread entirely? We've got about three pages to us!

Hmm, I noticed.

I think it is really funny how the thread just stops after this post.

I don't think I have any friends to be honest.

I've been seeing an awful lot of that on this thread.

This means you need to spam more.

Chop chop. Let's go! :p

This means you need to spam more.

either that or get somebody's aim or msn or whatever, and then hassle them in other online locations until you are friends by default

I'll adopt you. And corrupt you. :)

Lessee..."friends"...erm, well, Infinite Dunes and Compulsive Depression I get on with quite well when I see them. Similarly everyone I've met at the NS meets.

On here, well...Kanabia, Potarius, Philosopy and various others who I can't think of right now. Ooh, WYTYG, Infinite Revolution, Nadkor. There has to be more than that...Me too, I get on quite well you guys when we meet up. But the rest of the time I loathe your guts.

And nothing quite says friendship like quoting someone in your sig. Probably.

Hmm... I think we should co-opt Potarius into coming to Compulsive Depression's meet in the summer. He does live in the UK, right? Only I still have trouble remembering different things about different people. I personally thing NSG is just one huge schizophrenic hindu-esque creator god. Hack and Kat can be Kali and Shiva, most posters are various froms of Vishnu, and Maxx can be Brahma. Yeah...

Well, in lieu of anyone answering my question about whether this applies to all of NS or just NSG, my best (indeed, only) friend is Wasted Genius, he was my "partner in insanity" on the RP thread I used to run. I don't have any friends on NSG, as evienced by the fact that my posts most often get ignored. That's why I'm seriously considering leaving.

Just got back from some severe inactivity, so Ive forgotten most people. Cant forget Ruffy though, only person on here to say he loves me twice.

Me too, I get on quite well you guys when we meet up. But the rest of the time I loathe your guts.

Nope. Pot lives in Houston, Texas.

Nope. Pot lives in Houston, Texas.This is grave news indeed.

It's time to test a Goebbels quote me thinks
Repeat a lie a thousand times and it becomes the truth ...

I'm so very unAustralian... and we're not dyslexic damn it! Although almost everyone I know does enjoy drinking.
I guess i'll have to give you that, being from SA means you aren't really a convict.

oh shut up you :p
You shut up first, least i hear your whiny aussie accent.

I guess i'll have to give you that, being from SA means you aren't really a convict.

Sure does. *is disturbed by Harlesburgs opinions and knowledge of Australia again*... if I disliked you I'd tell you to get your own country.

i have a mix accent going on how i say things

Yeah, FS is a mensch.

So you don't deny your whiny aussie accent?

I know 'A few good Nsers'(Better than a few good men*nods*) from Adelaide.;)

I know, you keep saying. Your knowledge in beginning to annoy me. Go learn about one of the more exciting states... shoo! *fends of Harlesburg with broom*

So you don't deny your whiny aussie accent?

sorry i have no idea what you no about, you must be thinking of the poms

Harlesburg, are you referring to the part where every sentence sounds like a question because it goes up in pitch at the end?

I know, you keep saying. Your knowledge in beginning to annoy me. Go learn about one of the more exciting states... shoo! *fends of Harlesburg with broom*

*Prods Harlesburg in the direction of Victoria*

I guess i'll have to give you that, being from SA means you aren't really a convict.

Bah, there are miwwions of people in australia not descended from convicts.

Dhomme, probably. He's the person I've had most actual conversation with, anyway. My top kindred spirit's definitely PM, in a huge number of ways, but I've never actually talked to the man himself.

sorry i have no idea what you no about, you must be thinking of the poms
Nope, they have a plum or are just chavish.:)

But Sout h Australia is so interesting, one of your senators actually pleaded that the grain shortage was so desperate that SA might actually need to import grain from other states!
LOL...
*Prods Harlesburg in the direction of Victoria*
How you doing.;)

Might be.^_^
Though naturally that is more of a NSW trait, Melbourne chicks, i assume this of all of Victoria sound like they are smokers and have gruff voices.

But South Australia is so interesting, one of your senators actually pleaded that the grain shortage was so desperate that SA might actually need to import grain from other states!

:confused: I still don't see why we're sacrificing SAustralian wheat growers to grow rice in the eastern states... seriously... wtf? From what I hear it's not even good rice... not to mention we can import it from Asia (where the climate is actually good for growing rice) for much cheaper and it doesn't waste our valuable water.

Probably, I only go over there for a week or so every few years to visit my uncle, aunt and cousin. And while I'm there I don't pay to much attention to Melbourne itself.

I'm descended from Poms, Irish (Mother's side, at least two/three generations), Italians and Yugoslavs (Slovenians nowadays)(Father's side, grandfather/grandmother). So yeah... no convicts (that can be seen by mere location and heritage).

When the time of Bottle's ascension is at hand, The Nazz, Demi, Jocabia, and Smunkee shall be among the first to be eaten.

Oh please, Barf me out with a spoon!My best mate on NS is my best mate. He runs Apethetic Tribbles and is a Machivellian Psycho! He wears black most of the time and it is only the fact that he has a bird and four kids that stops him keeping heads in the freezer!In fact the sniper smiley is him on a bad day! Great bloke!

Oh you'll be eaten. Just not first.

sorry i have no idea what you no about, you must be thinking of the poms

Its called AQI, Australian Question Intonation. And British kids started talking like that because of "Neighbours" and fuckin' "home and away"!:rolleyes:

Did you see the bit Adams Hills did about it, it was great, come to think of it... pretty much anything Adam Hills does is great.

I can't find it... but watch this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6TNCf0cwJsY).... and this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oLBo2GseX3I).

Yeah, rice growing in our current drought? What a bunch of 'tards.

A bit like the EU still subsidising sugar beet instead of just buying overseas sugar cane.

You're missing all the fun then! At least go to federation square, in all of its funky glory. And the very nice tram system.

Your tram line is nice and exits right to the beach, too bad there are no tramlines being built.

I'm descended from Poms, Irish (Mother's side, at least two/three generations), Italians and Yugoslavs (Slovenians nowadays)(Father's side, grandfather/grandmother). So yeah... no convicts (that can be seen by mere location and heritage).

Scottish (somewhere in the highlands), English (Yorkshire) and German (Bavaria) here. They are not convicts though my grandfather (dad's side) was a POW after WW2 in the U.K so I guess that could count...

How you doing.;)

Very nice, now there is some rain (on that subject, you could loan a couple of gigalitres could you?).

What the Greeks and ex Nazis?:p

Don't forget the Italians ;) .

Ex-nazis?

Your tram line is nice and exits right to the beach, too bad there are no tramlines being built.

There is, it's a wonderful waste of our public transport money.

Construction of a 1.2-km extension from Victoria Square, along King William Street and North Terrace started in April 2007. Further extensions are the subject of a government feasibility study.

There is, it's a wonderful waste of our public transport money.

How is it a waste of public transport money?

Hmm, I didn't know about that tram line being built, oh well.

How is it a waste of public transport money?

Hmm, I didn't know about that tram line being built, oh well.

Because I think that $32,000,000 of our public transport money could be better spent than on a 1.2km extension to a tram line.

Because I think that $32,000,000 of our public transport money could be better spent than on a 1.2km extension to a tram line.

That much? What is the usual cost?

That high cost may be due to needing to tear up concreted land and put in new foundations. It may also include the cost of upgrading your current tram fleet.

What would you suggest that money be spent on?

I really missed myself when I didn't come on here for awhile.
Didn't really miss anyone else :p.

So what I'm getting at is, I don't really have any best friends except myself. :fluffle:

Uh, thanks?

Uh, thanks?

You're lucky. I want to be devoured by bottle.

I'm more curious about how I earned such an honor. Bottle is not particularly arbitrary.

Hahahaha! Yes!

There's a handfull of people on NS I can stand.

I'd probably get along a lot better with people from here in real life,not squabbling over stupid crap.

Agreed.

I don't have any friends on NS... [cries]

I disable sigs, so I will be your friend. :)

I consider everyone on NS my friend. yes, that includes The Nazz, Canuk, Fass, Cat-tribe, Grave, Dobbs and even Lyric. Friends can have opposing views. ;)

I like posting with all of you, especially Pancake, Kat, Fris, La Dame, DCD, German Nightmares and Especially Smunkee and LG.

*GROUP ZEN HUG EVERYONE!*

I haven't seen Cabra in a while either...

*looks for Cabra*

My goodness, yes, where IS Cabra West? *sad*

she checked her Nation 1 day ago but has not been on NSG for sometime

she checked her Nation 1 day ago but has not been on NSG for sometime

A month. CW has been away for a month. It happens sometimes.

Oh...I hope she knows I consider her a friend too.

A month. CW has been away for a month. It happens sometimes.

look out that RL bug no the lose again a month:(

Oh...I hope she knows I consider her a friend too.

i think she does
now i go an feel sad for myself

Yeah, FS is a mensch.

i'm going to assume that that is a good thing

I miss the old #NSG and ADN crowd. Those were some good times.

Everyone jokes that you can't leave. If only we realized how untrue this really is. I agree with you. There are so many I wish were at least still casually around.
