I couldn't really think of a title... but I did realize this. No one ever reads the first mini paragraph of a large post they assume it isn't an important part of the whole. If you read this far post the work egg into your post some how.

So... between work and smash I find myself with a lot of time to myself to do what I do best online: lurk. I kind of float along hitting up any threads that interest me and the funny thing? I write a post for just about every single one. a lengthy post in which I go into deep detail about my thought and ideas on the said topic. It normally about half way (Nope... not here) where one of three thing happen.

1. I figure no one will want to read this much text and I sum up the major point in two words or a small sentence.
2. I realize after right my view point has changed and everything I've written has been invalidated.
3. I get bored and just don't feel like it.

I've written several blogs like this too, some of which long enough that auto save found them worthy of a place on my hard drive, some of which include "I <3 Girls.", "I <3 Frame Data.", I <3 Pressure" and "I <3 The Basics."


As of late I've gotten into the habit of IMing people rather than typing out messages to them. I think it's because I like instant conformation of ideas. Asking and answering question very fast before I can lose interest, and you'd never guess this, keeps my interest! This is espeacially true for critiquing match videos I almost never post what I think of the match I watched more often than not I'll attempt to contact the person on some type of messenger. But this is also true for people in general if I find you interesting of have something I want to say directly to you chances are you've heard from me huh?

Lol what's up <3! This is Walnut I have the same interest in IMing people. I instead join the crowd in messaging the slow way on the boards...

PS. You are good by the way keep it up.

I do the same thing too. Or at least, under the "Uncle Kenny" account I did. I'll admit I got a little crazy and (WORK EGG WORK EGG WORK EGG) posted a hella lot when I first joined up again under this name since there was so much new stuff and I wanted to catch up but I've since slowed down again.

Back when I used to lurk regularly, I would have to force myself to hit the "post quick reply" button and then I'd have to leave so I couldn't edit it with a "void" message. And I swear, I've typed out walls of text before and then decided not to post them.

Still, it is interesting to lurk. Sometimes you learn a thing or two.

I do the same a lot of the time. I write out posts that are like a few paragraphs long and then think "People aren't going to read this" and sleep.<--What? Why in the world did I write sleep? I meant to write stop but thought it was interesting enough to keep in here.

Anywayyy, my keyboard isn't working too well. Reminds me of eggs. Which also reminds me of the typo you made when you tried to spell "word" but your Freudian slip (irony, put umami somewhere in your post if you get it) made you say 'work'.

Bahhhhhhhhhhhh, I'm bored too.

Yeah, sometimes I'll write a response to a thread then just think 'Nah' and don't end up posting it.

Yeah I do that a lot. I spend a lot of time on this site but rarely post as much as I could. Half the time I'll quit half way and, like vyse, think nah, it's not worth posting or I'll get lazy and quit half way.

EDIT: forgot the eggs

I know how it feels, ain't life boring?
I've never really posted the ones with depths though, I find mines cheesy.

Eggs should come with the cheese included, so I don't need to get cheese when I want to make an omelette.

If you have the money, just take a giant road trip. Find other bored people across the country, then illegally sail to Greenland to start a cult (preferrably a nudist cult) where you can plan on overtaking Canada by flooding it unexpectedly by melting Greenland.

Trust me, you won't regret it.
