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.

Well that's not a nice thing to do to a corpse, Aon.

But at least I still have my dreamself. Just chuck the thing on a stone bed if you find one, please.

Just don't pig out. I think most of it has to be intact for the whole quest bed thing to work...

@DG: Thank ya! This is the first time I'm ever going on a cruise, so I'm excited! (Also, I should note, I made a small mistake—I'm just going down to Fla. tomorrow—we set sail Saturday.) I'll give an update when I'm back on my adventures!

@Irene: This is why I wish more people would make puns on my handle [lol] Adios!

True...You can live without an arm, yeah? Or I guess you'd get it back or whatever.

"live" being a relative term at present... I guess it gets regenerated. Dunno. Been a while since I've gone through Homestuck's archives, actually, I forget specifics of how it works.

Don't you just become your dream self alone? Like, it doesn't matter what happened to your wakeful body, because your dream body goes on alone.

Of course it is. We don't even know that we've fully accounted for all the different ways to be dead yet. :P

Apparently the number of contemporary slaves today are estimated to be as high from 12 million to 27 million. :o
