EPTFirst of all, thank you for everything. No, really, thank you. Some of my most defining and amusing moments over the past few years happened while I was interacting with you guys, whether you knew it or not. You might not know this, but I literally came THIS close to committing suicide last year, and I think a large part of why I didn't was because of the connections I felt I had with you. After all if you could go on with your shitty lives, what right did I have to end mine? (… lame attempt at a joke, I know
) But that's just it, my depression stems from the feeling that I'll never be able to accomplish anything, and while that may be true in the cosmic sense, I feel as though I have literally done nothing this summer. And I want to change that, no, I NEED to change that. So I'm leaving. I'm going to stop playing most of the video games I play, at least for a while, and try to figure out what I'm actually doing with my life. If it turns out that I just want to return to what I've been doing, then this post will look pretty stupid, but who knows? Drastic times calls for drastic measures. (I've tried to take smaller steps, make smaller changes, and, well, it simply hasn't worked.)
So, goodbye, and thank you. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU. I don't know if I really can express my thanks enough. It's been a pleasure knowing you, even if it was only through an IRC client. I know I just said that maybe this isn't goodbye, but I can't help but shake this feeling that this is the last you'll be seeing of me for a long, long time, you know?
So… So long, and thanks for all the fish!
