Creating some sort of law enforcement… You get the point. Pioneers. Which is a really lame thing to call us. But it’s true.

To me this place is real life. I’ve seen just as many boobs, assholes, fights, really hot women, morons, idiots, bad poetry, news about Paris Hilton, and whatever else you can think of here as I do in every other part of my life. T o me, the ones that say that things work differently here as they do ‘in real life’ are the ones that have created this alter-ego for themselves here. Which is why nothing works. As soon as you separate yourself into differently personalities for reaction to different places and people than you will start to fight within yourself. And that shows. I’m the same person here as I am with my friends, family, pets, strangers… everyone. It helps keep me grounded. I can’t justify acting different. Saying things I wouldn’t normally say. Being more mean… sad… happy… I’m just me.


So, if you’re unhappy with how this place has turned out you should no further than yourself. You helped build it. Some of us have been here for almost the entire time. *snip* So if you wanna help keep this place going all you have to do is…


You know already. Just do it.


(And I'm talking to all of you here... )
