I'm like ten posts away from catching up to sunflower õ_õ

Won't be the first person you catch up to. It will however be one short of the last.

hahaha yeah... it was weird enough when I caught up with nimphy, who everyone kept comparing me to in the beginning... kinda funny my posting activity has slowed down so much lately though. i'm so close to taking the throne

ah well, i suppose that's what happens when life isn't very exciting, and i don't have anything witty to say, and have less art to contribute with than usual...

What even is that?

It's from Metalocalypse and Skwisgaar really is being a space viking... um, I do realize this makes very little sense.

We could use something to get the gears going like Dood Leordie, the sssonas, the art style swap and the meme thread did in the past.


Find what you're looking for Piney :P ? (I think I'm about to develop a paranoia complex because it seems like there's always a guest eyeballing my profile when I open the activity screen and I'm like ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)

Huh? ??? I have no idea what you're referring too and now you're making me paranoid.

Honestly though... I can relate. Pretty sure I only made one post yesterday outside of "good morning" and "good night." :P I feel like the most interesting thing I have to say currently is "I'm really sleep deprived" but that's of course not news.

It makes me feel better knowing that I'll pass Sunflower at some point though (I kid)

"mom can we buy chocolate milk?"
"sure. oh wait why are you picking the fancy glass bottle brand one"
"i want FANCY chocolate milk? can I?"
"well, the carton one is cheaper, and this one is probably only pricier because of its brand, and"
"FINE OKAY carton choclety. i guess i'll drink it from a wine glass to feel fancy"

The activity screen said you were viewing my profile and it made me happy that it was someone I knew for once and not some anonymous guest.

Secret Santa starts next weekend now that I think about it.

I don't think I've ever seen someone looking at my profile - but that's mostly because I don't go on the who's online page often because it'll say that I'm viewing the who's online page and that's weird to me, I dunno. (it doesn't make sense now that I think about it) But I do get happy when I see there's a guest registering for an account here :D

Heheheh, one of my teachers wants us to do a "journalist" comic about an event that happened to us and we can do a report sort of thing on, but I'm just like.... "you don't understand, my life isn't exciting." :P

The activity screen said you were viewing my profile and it made me happy that it was someone I knew for once and not some anonymous guest.

Ohh ok. I honestly have no recollection of viewing your profile, ahaha. I think I can assure you I wasn't doing anything stalkerish.

I have a tendency to check really often and it's really frustrating that i keep doing that õ_õ thanks a lot ocd. also the reason i had to make myself hidden because it was making me paranoid that people could see what i was doing, so haiz confirmed for hypocrite hahaha

but it makes me happy to see people registering for accounts, too ^___^

haaa one of my self-given challenges in life is to make ANYTHING sound exciting (hence the epic hotel adventure saga this summer), but that takes like, energy and concentration....... and what the heck is that................

Ohh ok. I honestly have no recollection of viewing your profile, ahaha. I think I can assure you I wasn't doing anything stalkerish.

Whenever I see guests looking at people's profiles, I kinda just assume it's them not logged in XD so....so naive...

Once, I saw someone's activity listed as "Printing Speculations: Secrets Behind Emil's Hair" I have a screen shot on my mobile somewhere that I look at occasionally if I need a giggle. It's great.

Hello.

I totally did not just go on your profile and then refresh the page every few minutes because you mentioned it just now. Nope not me what are you talking about.

Also most of the time guests are looking at your profile it isn't actually a person looking at it. More often than not, those are bots. They crawl the site for google and bing and other search sites so that they can index our forum in order to bring up relevant search results.

Now I'm imaging those weird tiny red spider mites that crawl over stuff in tiny swarms...

Spoiler: show

Actually they are called spiders. That's the technical name for them. Or at least what the forum calls them. Spider bots.

The only reason I'm not on hidden is because I like people knowing when I'm online. I don't know what that makes me.

Whenever I see guests looking at people's profiles, I kinda just assume it's them not logged in XD so....so naive...

I've actually done this... I look at my own profile more than anyone else's. :P
