So yeah. As of now(!), I've now posted many hundreds (a hundred of them, to be exact) of posts.(1)
It varies day to day, but I'm not a very interesting person, so I'm not sure what to say, to be quite honest. Well shit, now you've done the math(1), anticipated a boring-ass 10k blog, opened it up, glanced inside, and BOOM a bunch of boring text AS EXPECTED noooo~
I've left this floating around because I really didn't know what to talk about beyond maybe shoutouts(2) haha. I gave some thought to maybe talking about my life, my history with TL/starcraft/ESPORTS, thoughts going forward, stuff like that :O
But no. That would be even more unbearably boring than this so I'll leave it off. Also I lied, I'm going to do shoutouts anyway~(3)
SHOUTOUTS TO:
DivinO - You're not around nearly as much but you're always super chill, super nice, super amazing at art stuffs, SUPER HILARIOUS AND SPONTANEOUS and I hope you and CreatorGX have an awesome time at SCAD!!! <3 I still remember when I stranded and everything, and we were just chatting so much on irc hehe, so nice. Nowadays there's workworkwork unfortunately, but there WILL be funs to be had, and it'll be that much better.
Speaking of CreatorGX - CAPS CAPS CAPS jk I'm sorry don't hurt me :D seems like this summer was pretty intense but it also seems like you made it through so woohoo!! You artists/designers are OP! Even your rough sketches or stuff you whip up in just a few moments is jaw-droppingly fantastic. FLY MANGO
Azera - Hey dude! Our music tastes when it comes to ambient/downtempo/chill music seems to intersect but you have bad taste so noooo! Kidding, kidding! Anyway you keep plugging away over there in Singapore dude. Shit must be unreal tough over there like I can't imagine, but just chin up and keep on swimming. You're a very passionate guy, never lose that fiah!
Shock710 - You're literally like the nicest guy I know, for real! But go find some real girls dude T.T or hurry up and talk to qt and then talk to real girls you fool! Also LEARN TO SEARCH!! Anyway yeah, keep on truckin through school yo, lots of good memories on irc
Also turns out that Australian time isn't too bad as far as talking go so woohoo!! (actually that's probably more a result of my unreal amounts of time spent on irc but whatever lol). And of course...hooray for your naeuns!!! ^^Grobyc - omgah you're also a super nice guy, you shock and I own it up on ladder despite by colossal lag hehe
You're always there for us, and even though you're like super efamous (I remember you from like way back and was afraid to talk to you at first :O) you're down-to-earth and always up for some games and conversation you sexy beast! Haven't seen you around lately but I hope you're doing really well!!vGI-CoW - Ahh cowww!! I was afraid of you too at first since you were a big scary mod with facial piercings but you're super chill and I swear you are like ALWAYS funny and nice, I have no idea how you do it. Hadn't seen you for the longest time until recently, but much love :DDD Lots of ridiculous conversations that made me crack up hehehe. Stay classy, seriously~! Now you're busy a lot with your job, but you will always be the god damn king of kings muthafreaking COW! <3
dAPhREAk - You're always awesome and hilarious, and even though everyone "thinks you're an asshole", I know it's not true! You're really nice, and you give good advice and perspective--you also keep us honest, and you're fun to be around~ You can be hella mean when you want to (T______________T) but it's only to bring balance to the force, I understand (also it's usually pretty funny too) :D Always fun whether it's irc or games. Okay I'll stop here in case it's too tl;dr for you~
MDJ - Please don't perm yourself!! Your posts keep many a TL thread worth reading. One day you'll quit your job, find one that actually aligns with your goals and interests and stuff, and you'll kick ass :DD You've also taught me a lot!
So many inside jokes and good times shitting on random people muahahahaha! MDJaded and everything aside...there is a place for hope and wonder and trust, and there is a place for earth-shattering realism. Also you're really handsome with a ridiculously amazing fiance though so that's good YOU CORNHOLE!! farvacola - Shame that you'll probably be going to school in the midwest(ish) or east coast, but you will forever be a brother of the west coast. I think it's pretty awesome how you seem to know your shit pretty much no matter what it comes to, and wish you the best with your law school apps! Also your fps and gaming skills in general are unreal. I really look up to you and MDJ and dAPhREAk
Hold on this is YOUR shoutout though, so to you, well...I guess just keep on having all your shiznatz togetha nikka, also puhhraiz dah lawd!KadaverBB - Thanks for being super friendly always and being a stalwart moderator who's super chill. Also you're really good at left for dead wtf, though we only got to play that one time~ I can't believe how super nice you all are and the kind of conversations you have to put up with, but we have to accept that you're German Pony Man so I guess it's a fair trade ;] Anyway much love fasho~
CamConnor - Super glad you started coming onto irc/TL again recently out of nowhere!! I'm making like you and just relaxing the hell out of whatever time I got left this summer, since the year's going to be torture in terms of work for me too lol. Horrible music taste aside (jk...mostly), you're chill as fuck and I hope your MSCF/MBA goes swimmingly. Sounds like a horrible amount of work but you can handle it bby.
Archas - The mousepad rocks and you're also just a bundle of fun! Hope your nuzlocke run + Volt White hardmode run goes well....sounds like a combination that shouldn't be fucked with haha. But I'm sure you've prepared very well and know exactly what you've gotten yourself into, so just gogogo!! The Royal Knight of the Staple Remover will prevail!!
jaaaaasper - You always have something to say all the time from all the way up there in Maine! One day you need to move to WEST COOOOASSSTT or something and get outta there. Anyway you also play a shitload of games so that's coo =P
shiroiusagi - Shiro! Probably the only person able to put up with shock's certain uhh shenanigans haha jkjk shock. Anyway your graphic design work is amazing, you should show us some too! Playing sctoo and l4d2 and stuff was also really really fun ^^ just so crazy haha!! :D
derb - Resident gangsta from tha streetz badass dude who still does random drugs. JK you seem to know your lit/english/political stuff very well though you want to do law. Too bad we can't have too many lit-based discussions really, even though the political/typical TL general threads are going strong lol.
dravernor - From the faraway country of Zimbabwe nuuu, at least your house is ridiculously nice (even if your Internetz are the pitz). You're also super nice and friendly to everyone, and a fellow mart-music-enjoyer (then again I've never met anyone who didn't enjoy his singing)!
marttorn - aka Mr. Imbavoice....way too good omg wtfx. Sometimes you might go overboard with the digs and it's CUTTING DEEP </3 BUT your random non sequitur humor rofl <3
No but seriously, your gift of voice and your practice = total lose-your-mind ridiculousness. People, if he ever says "here's something i recorded, do you want to listen" DO IT! YOUR MIND WILL BE BLOWN AWAY.brian - Gene, Masters of All Things Alcohol. That is all. Also your stats work and iirc you had a pretty cool Erdős number :D Probably the gold standard of old TL vet. I joined like 2009 and caught up on a lot of the old "culture" of TL from before then, but you're like Methusebrian hehe. Anyway you're a cool dude too, really everyone here is a cool person imo but let's say you're extra cool or something haha
MysteryMeat1 - For nagging my ass to post the 10k! Also for his smexy girl SUCCESS blog. Seriously, that's what I'm fucking talking about. Good job son >:D So good, it let MDJ get away with an image macro. That's right. Reminds me a little of the good old days in TL blogs.
solidbebe - For never being in one of these lists, but guess what? NOW YOU ARE WOOHOO! Keep on watching anime and stuff, sorry don't talk to you much so I can't say that much... but to the best of my knowledge you're chill so that's cool yay!
ANYWAY thanks for reading (even though honestly it's probably only worth reading for those mentioned lol(5)). I've only been around since 2009, and I remember going through a lot of TL's history back then. Call it rose-colored glasses, but I do think there was something even more special back in that time, a quality that doesn't seem to be around as much nowadays, despite several site redesigns and many more users. Oh well. Still the awesome people and community here, so it's all good. Here's to many more posts and years on TL!
(1) Also holy SHIT is that a lot of text, I started doing some shoutouts and it just spiraled completely out of control.
(2) Unless you're KBB (jkjk <3)
(3) Which I don't like to do, as a lot of the time it seems as if--by virtue of the rather short nature of shoutouts--you're defining people in just a short phrase, and all people are actually beautiful complex creatures!*
(4) I know we've all had waaaay more fucken awesome things to talking about, but ain't nobody got time fo fittin all that awesomeness into a single puny blog post, so calm yo titties son.
*except Po---a, who is neither
(5) But thanks for reading anyway yay! So many exclamation marks and emoticons~
