Crown Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Finished Last Argument of Kings yesterday, and started with The Discovery of Heaven by Harry Mulisch. Wish I could continue with the standalone novels, but I seriously need to read some books for school.Crown, will you dance with me too? ;)As long as your dancing skills don't intimidate me.

I am not at all good and dancing in pairs anyway. :PWhat I forgot to mention, we got another days of snowing. About 10 cm again. And it will probably come more.

Gillio Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 I would assume yes; certainly if I was in charge of designing the afterlife, I'd implement autorecognition and enhanced biographical recall.Thats it. You are now in charge of my afterlife!!!I don't think it is a crazy thought at all L.O, I first came here cus i had watched the show and around the 7th episode ordered the books online. I read the books in a few weeks and was dying to talk about them but my friends are not exactly the reading types, so i found this place and when i first got here i was just posting away in the book forum having some fun. I never realized just how special and important this place would become to me or just how close i would get with the people here, i was lifetime banned in my first 2 weeks here for being a wee bit rebellious :lol: but in that short time i had already made so many amazing friends that stood up for me and asked for me to be allowed back. Ran gave me a second chance and i can;t imagine my life right now if i hadn't been allowed back, to be honest i fucking hate the thought of what my life would be like right now if i hadn't been allowed back. Through this place i have met so many amazing and wonderful people from all over the world who have the same passions and interest i do, i have also been blessed to call so many of them friends i mean real friends that i care about and love as much as people who i see here where i live everyday. Before i came here i was not an internet person at all i actually as fucked as it sounds hate all this social networking stuff like facebook and twitter and texting, i am old school i believe in spending time with people physically and if i have time to send a text i can call and hear their voice :lol:. But finding this place was something special and even more so than just the site itself is here in the TTTNE, i will never forget being one of the original first generation of floobs and having Pebs, Lany, Harlot, Yana, Quoth, Elgernon, Lighting Lord, Space Bandito and of course my mentor in all things spam Colder Hands how welcome they made me feel and showed me just how special this thread is and what it really means to be a member of the TTTNE family. The TTTNE is that one place that when you find it you never want to lose it, for some they don't really understand the real power of the thread until they have one of those life changing moments where they really need to just talk or vent or even just feel like they are not alone, when your a member of the TTTNE family you are never alone and you are always loved and the moment you realize that and it touches your heart this thread becomes not just a place to come and talk with friends but a piece of who you are as a person. We have a lot of fun here and do a lot of flirting :leer: hell it's part of the TTTNE tradition but what makes this place more special than anywhere else on the site or the entire internet, is the caring and love you feel when you come here and spend time with the best people in the world.So to answer your question L.O i think we all would recognize each other, cus if we are suppose to meet up with our past friends and family in the afterlife then it's guaranteed we will recognize each other cus we are all family :grouphug:.My grammar sucks sorry guys for run on sentences and that stuff :P HAR HAR HAR.I think Me and zar and maid were about the same time, too, and faceless girl, I too had not done much on the internet before coming here, though I read the books when the paperbacks came out. I couldn't imagine being without this, now.Chiming in before heading to bed - yeah we will definitely know each other in the afterlife. All our talk of the bar, the comfy chairs in the reading room, the sauna and all the other accoutrements of TTTNE; that will all be waiting for us. ;)This place has become so special to me, as have all of you. So have a pleasant good night my lovely spammers. Sweet dreams and sleep well...And :leer: just for you, Crow.me tooYayyy, you saw it :DI have a very strong pun instinct!!!

Q the Cat Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 A good and happy Friday morning and/or evening to everyone!Becca: way to come back from being sick and get the 1k. Congratulations.And a hot tub sounds AWESOME!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quoth Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Indeed, Catelyn. Happy Friday! :) And hello Spamnation!You bet we have a hot tub, Bex. One of the first things we installed, courtesy of a madman we haven't seen in ages, 14D. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turinqui-Calima Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Anyone got a spare $200 lying around they aren't using?http://shop.national...sk&code=MR20936It sounds really interesting.I spoke to someone who had found a relative through DNA testing. They were both into genealogy and both were looking for their great-great-grandfather (I think?). Even though one was in SC and one in NY they kept seeing the others name when searching. so they decided to do a DNA test to see if they were related. They were indeed long-lost cousins... They now see each other once every few years and continued their search for relatives together.I thought that was a neat story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quoth Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Catelyn from the last thread:Heya Quoth, maybe I misread some of the older posts. It's easy to get behind in this fast-paced TTTNE!Oh, and I'm not quick enough to develop strategies for dastardly racing.... I'm not even sure what that is! :-)Merely a jest around here. Once racing begins (now I understand that to be around post 950 these days) some nefarious tttners like to "lay low in the weeds", ninja like, and snatch victory with a well timed post. Others have been known to distract racers at well timed points with a post such as, "Did you see the [contoversial, hilarious, something important to a racer] post in Gen Chat?!". The hope being that the racer flees tttne to see what it's all about and not be there at the big finish. Some folks (good naturedly) rage at such tactics. I called it dastardly, but really, as always, it's all in good fun. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turinqui-Calima Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Personally I find just posting a lot works best as long as you have a decent computer with decent internet connection. I only use 'tactics' if I'm on a sluggish computer or a mobile device. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
