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 going on a trip to Lapland tomorrow, so I'll probably be on less. Still gonna have internet access during it, though.

It wasn't my idea, it was my mom's idea. She's got a thing about Lapland. I'm just going along with her.

Don't let my "bleh" spoil your trip. Everyone I know who's been to Lapland says it's a beautiful place.

The reason I know I wouldn't like it is that I hate snow.

On hiatus for a week.

I have to work on school (gonna finish the trimester strong and turn a C into an A), piano practicing (recital coming up), and then, if I have time, catch up on (in ascending order of importance) Gunnerkrigg Court, watching MLP s3 with little sister, and playing with little sister in a way that may or may not involve the following: legoes, cardboard boxes shaped into a toolbooth, jacks, tinkertoy robots, and book forts.

I guess I have to turn in my troper cred; because I've stopped procrastinating; see you guys in March!

Lapland sounds like the world's first fetish-oriented theme park.

But anyway.

Hey, I have no idea if it's okay to ask this, because apparently I missed something pretty f-ing big, but, uh...

Taco...I'm forgetting what that person's full handle is...or is it just Taco?

EDIT: It is. Okay, I think I was thinking of someone else. Our threads typical don't really cross paths.

My internet at home is not working (I'm posting this at school). So I'll post more when its fixed.

Well its fixed now, and I feel awfully melodramatic, in my defense I didn't expect it to be fixed so soon

X is going to be gone for a bit since he spilled tea on his keyboard. He'll probably be back by next Monday.
