Well it's 20 minutes until Christmas ends but I have reached 20,000 posts after nearly 3 years on the board. Before I continue with the main purpose of this thread, I want to do all the usual thank you grettings:
To Blade, RD, and Madison: The 3 wise men of the boards ;D
To my best friends, the people who joined in the now defunct Inklings fad including, but not limited to:
Erisi236
Forgotten Sin
PKS
Mike Corral
Godz
Fuzzy Warble
Dr. T
Greg
D2
Franchise
and all the rest. Love ya guys!
To the others, including but not limited to:
Triple Kelly, the female version of me.
Tha Kid Joker, One of the smoothest guys on the board
Sajoa Moe, A true baseball fanatic
Wolfie, the toughest SOB here
Candyman, my fellow Met fan
Koda89
Franchise
The MaDaba, my co-host for the ill-fated Water Closet podcast
Kar, the mama of the boards
Golden Spike...no explanation needed
DiG, the fatherly figure of the boards
and all the other mods.
Ok, that's of the way. My real reason of posting this is one simple question...
How much of this board is your social life?
For me, it consists about 95% of it. Being autistic and not having great social skills, plus my fear of driving relegates me to my house. I can't even imagine not being here as it's made me more socially active and much more mature person (I'm dead serious) in life.

*feels highly disappointed for being leftout in the Inklings mentions, though I can see why*  I don't really have a social life, so this board rocks hardcore. I go to work and sometimes hangout with a friend, but most of my time is spent at home, either writing random things, watching dvds, playing with wacky instruments or this board. So it saves me from going mad and/or crazy at 4:30 in the morning. |

Wow, I wasn't even a part of the Inklings, and I got mentioned 2 times! Congrats! lol
Anyway, I come on here when there's nothing else I really want to do, which happens more than a lot of people would think. If I had to choose between hanging out on the board or going to the bar with some friends, I would go to the bar, but on my downtime, this is my #1 site.

(Remembers he has a whole month of vacation) Or is it? Dun Dun Dun! |

So it saves me from going mad and/or crazy at 4:30 in the morning. Don't feel bad. I wasn't listed either and I was a mod at the forums before work, school, and family ate up so much of my time. As far as how much of my social life this forum is, I don't know. I'm fiends with the people that I work with and take classes with, but I don't get out that much. In fact, I have only attended two social functions in the last year (one that I was required to attend and a recent party). Hell, I did not even attend my own graduation when I earned my BS. The thing is, I really don't know how to define my social life, so I cannot gauge how much this forum is (except sometimes a little too much when I need to get some work done). |

Don't know. Just contributing to the board with random Naruto, Brian Wilson, and Nintendo references so...same old same old. |
