Ha! You can't scare me! You don't know where I live!

...do you?

Meh, I wasn't serious anyway. It just seemed like it would be a funny response to your statement. I was just bummed that it came at the end of a page. I wanted to just post the picture, but I had to quote your statement to make sure the context was there.

But while we're on the subject of denial, I refuse to acknowledge MySpace. I'm all for the blog movement, but MySpace just turns me off. It feels too commercial and most of the pages I've been "tricked" into going to just smack of 1990's web design...

"Whoa...I can load up my page with music clips, animated GIFs, blinding backgrounds, and illegible font colors to mask the fact that I can't spell or form a complete thought!!!!!111!!111one11!!1eleventy-one!"

It's like GeoShitties all over again.

I agree, it is pretty awful. Me and Rob from my band share the chores of keeping the site up and promoting the band...and it's well....painful sometimes. We both have our own personal pages with a blog, but that's about it. The pages with 10,000 different pictures and videos are just...well, awful.

THANK YOU!

I hate it when people ask me if I have a MySpace account. Though maybe I should be flattered, since it seems to be a way of telling me I look young.

Anyway, no, I didn't take your reply seriously. I just felt compelled to reply with something, and my inanity was the result.

I finally saw MirrorMask this evening. uhhh wow
favorite scene

Intriguing. Knowing absolutely nothing of this movie, I find it almost exactly like a scene from Legend.

Now I'm curious...

holy crap malictus that was creepy. I know nothing about that movie and now I'm intrigued....

MirrorMask is a dark "kid's movie" by Neil Gaiman/Dave McKean (of comic book fame), with collaboration from Jim Henson's effects department. If you like the clip, the whole movie is sorta like that. Check it out!

Okay, okay, so get this:

WE WON THE GOSHEN INVITATIONAL!!!!

For those of you who don't understand the significance of this (=most/all of you), Northrop Boys' Tennis has not won ANY tournament of any kind (invitationals, sectionals, etc.) in OVER 14 YEARS! At the invitational, we beat a team in the top 25 in the state! We're going to do so amazing this season, last year we were 11-4, this season we have a pretty good chance at 15-0, and a great chance at 14-1.

EDIT: Oh, by the way, I can post some pictures of me playing tennis lol (add some variety to the picture thread).

Double post like what?

So I was just wondering, how come the majority of people that were here before the Great Reset all joined on February 2nd, 2005? It just seems odd to me that so many people, even if informed by intraweb means (e-mail) would so immediately and similarly respond.
