Go To

This is a thread for people who will not be or have not been on the site for a while, whether due to real life or to resist an internet addiction, the latter of which is encouraged within reason. Also, talk about the benefits/whatever of taking a day or a weekend off, or things to do when not online. TV Tropes ruining your life is nothing to be proud of.

Generally, expect the following from this thread:

  1. People announcing their departure or return.
  2. Moderators announcing a significant forum ban — not trolls or vandals, but someone people will notice and miss.
  3. Inquiries about an absent troper.
  4. Responses to inquiries about an absent troper.

I'll be absent for a while. This term is going to be hard. Therefore, I would like to ask you, my Internet friends, a favour, in all sefishness. Please be so kind as to kick me out whenever I give in to TV Tropes Will Ruin Your Life, and kick me out of the forum whenever you see me pop up. Such remarks as "GTFO" or "Don't you have more pressing matters to resolve" will be most welcome.

Yeah, it's gonna be one of those terms, in which I obtain excellent marks in exchange for headaches, acid reflux, and nightmares about projective jommetry. Can I count on you dudes and gals? {:´·3

Sure thing, Raw Power, although I have no idea what "jommetry" means... geometry?

Going to take a break for however long.

This place moves too fast. By the time I make articulate replies to threads I actually want to post in stuff has already moved forward and changed subject.

Oh, that and I'm gonna be hella busy with social security and college apps this week.

So see ya'll whenever, I guess. Take it easy.

Srzly all of the boards post too fast.

There's too many people to insult and not enough time or fast enough fingers.
