  1. sometimes i get clammy when i think about him <333333
  2. And only a guy as great as the one and only stickOsteel deserves that kind of effort. [I hope this routine is working]
  3. Yeah
  4. Dude join the boards and come back! Doesn't mean you gotta post regularly or anything (or even at all to be fair), but we can't get the band back together without sticksOsteel! [how's that for a pitch]
  5. where is sticksOsteel and why is he not here
  6. I stumbled on to that thread. Somehow it got "featured" and that's when it got hidden. For what it's worth, I unfeatured it for you @Naraku4656
  7. When I was a kid, we would go to my great great aunt's (my grandfather's aunt) house once a week for years and she would make dinner or get a pizza for us and my cousins as well as her own great grandkids that were the same age. There were several different things she made, but she would always say that there were so many things she had forgotten how to make in her old age because we were all picky eaters, but she still made a number of things that I liked. Her mashed potatoes were the greatest thing in the history of mankind. Depending on the time of year, all of us kids would go out and run around or play, or come up with games to play inside, or we would play card games that she taught us. Even though she died when I was a senior in high school, I still have recurring dreams on occasion of going over there. So I would say it's a tradition that had a long-term impact.
  8. i can't wait to see what your daily board confession for tomorrow is
  9. If you take a look at your personal notification settings, there are all sorts of things you can set notifications for and there should be a toggle for each one to choose whether you want email notifications or board notifications.
  10. Cutting a waffle in a way that the waffle square stays whole and the pooled syrup inside doesn't breach, and then eating it.
  11. man i hate it when that happens
  12. so i am legitimately curious your thread kind of began with you lamenting that not enough people were posting and that the ones who do post just post bad content, and then one of those people (sponges) said he spends his posting time asking people to read his fanfics and making political shitposts in rants. you asked why he chooses to do that, while cautioning that people always hate when you ask why - except when you asked "why" the only person who seemed to dislike the direction of the conversation that followed was yourself, even though you asked. am i misreading the thread? if so, what is your honest perspective? i wanna be on the same page as you, but i need help to make it click.
  13. I don't really get what you mean. sponges was calling himself something that he didn't mean to, and I told him he was wrong and what he actually meant to say. and then he played it cool because you implied he was pretentious and he needed to save face at the prospect of being pretentious *and* wrong.
  14. also what
  15. ok also you messed up your quote
  16. As I recall, fatalism is a branch of predeterminism. Whereas predeterminism generally is the concept that everything is predetermined (either by due to a supreme being or due to a rube goldberg machine of chemical reactions triggered by the big bang), fatalism is more Shakespearean or like Oedipus. Or as Darth Vader would say: "it is your destiny"
  17. Fatalism is like a kind of like the dramatic version of predeterminism. Predeterminism is the concept that everything is all, well, pre-determined - from the weather down to our individual choices.
  18. whyuu
  19. so are you saying i gotta ban erryone who doesn't post enough, and also the assholes who post too much to scare other people away from posting
  20. Generally I think I message board behavior had changed since the '00s. I rarely get involved in like actual real-time posting, unless I'm directly doing something related to the site. Rather, it's either one of the tabs I have open if on my personal PC, or I check the site on my phone in little breaks here and there. But I think this is what the message board format is geared towards, rather than real-time activity.
  21. I don't think fox hunting is as widespread as it once was, and I don't think anyone actually does the fox hunting sport where the rich people ride the horses that chase after the dogs that scare the foxes out of hiding.
