A2A is not the same

---

Many times......

When I first came here there were so many different personalities here. ShyGirl, Echo, Squareroot, Snagglepuss, Amanda, Helms, Tas (anyone remember him), Diver, Lil Beau (yeah..I know that's you CR :wink: ), Whatever happened to Pimpsta, Craig, Lance, Pansy...those are the people I remember the most. I remember some of the others. Anyone remember QotSA456 (what a punk!). How about Stupid_Man? Who remembers Tony? What about Focus (I don't see him much anymore)? It's not the same as it once was. But something i've learned in the years that I've been here is that people come and go and walk in and out of your life all the time. But the marks they leave on you leave a lasting imprint that you should cherish forever because one day when you least expect it, it will all be gone. Nothing lasts forever anymore...It all just turns to dust. One day, you and I will be gone..it's inevitable. Things must change or we don't grow..and if we don't grow we don't fulfill our destiny. If we don't fulfill destiny then the circle is left incomplete and unfinished. I don't post as much anymore because it's a part of growing up. I came here when I was younger and I learned a lot and I grew up and became who I am largely in part due to this board and my family...and friends. But as time goes on you learn that you outgrow certain things, places, people...I'm not really growing out of A2A. It's just that I have fewer and fewer questions as I get older so the need for me to post becomes less and less until maybe one day, I won't post at all. I hope that never happens but the possibility is always there. Anyhow, that's just my two cents.

Lance is still here.Craig popped his head back in after a long hiatus.focus still comes around but not often.seven_wants_ten sent me a PM to "see if I was still alive". Didn't post much but his sarcasm cracked me up.You forgot our Egyptian love god ... Pittsburgh

It's all my fault... I haven't felt like comming out to play lately.I've always tried to give some advice when the question falls within my experience (hence, most of my postes were in the sexuality section).I also love a good debate. I especially love ripping up the english language with Steve.If I can manage to get my life out of the toilet, I'll come play more, I promise!!I have been cheating on A2A a bit though. I joined up to Ed the Sock for some much needed laughs but the pace is a little slow. It needs more smart asses and debaters!"I'd rather be a smart ass than a dumb ass"

We never should have banned Pitts

It may be a lot of fun for the participants, but it's not for everyone else. and neither is reading post after post of arguement and reading the constant bickering - i've actually had a lot of people PM me to say they had had a laugh at the silly posts, however i have also had lots PMs from people saying they don't want to post cos if you picking at what people say, how they say it, their grammar, the list goes on. >>>>>>I don't want you not to have fun, why thanks you steve, so good of you to let us all have a laugh occasionaly.

I know they're still here. lol But do you remember back when they were the faces of A2A. They were the ones everyone knew. You guys were what kept me coming back. Heck does anyone remember when we didn't have moderators?! The board has changed so much and yet...still so little.

i rember sqareroot and taZ.. tas with a Z lol.. stu.. since i hardly get onaim i havent; talked to him in years. and greg, last iheard from him he had gotten a job and was packing to go a trip. I still talk to Lance alot. not here though but threw email. ur right about..>"something i've learned in the years that I've been here is that people come and go and walk in and out of your life all the time." sometimes the ones that go out of ur life is a good thing though.

I still talk to Lance alot.He still hanging out with King Ar thur?

you bastard, you beat me to it!!

Man you guys crack me up! rofl!!

thank you.It's nice of you to say so

I remember it used to be a lot more serious when I first joined, but now its become alot less serious except for religious and political outburts in basicaly every thread. No need to name cus everyone knows who they are.

Dude, you have dragged many a thread off topic. The discussion about your academic career comes to mind. There have been lots of others.And didn't you bring your religious ideas into at least one thread, which lead to a long discussion on Mormonism?What do you mean by "serious"? That seems to run in cycles. Is your post about burning off pubes with deoderant and a lighter an example of "not serious"? Or your fond recollections of your childhood vandalism activities?

Did I say anything about hijacking Steve? I said about dragging religious and political shit into every thread. And no, someone else asked my my religion and I answered and everyone else tried to tell me I was wrong. I don't like talking about religion or politics all the time they bore me.>Or your fond recollections of your childhood vandalism activities? Ha ha yeah those were funny. I still laugh about them today.

One of the complaints people have is that threads are being hijacked. Some religious threads start with a religious topic, and some drift in that direction. Sometimes people will randomly drop in religious advice, such as the person who suggested that a depressed athiest talk to God.

> I don't like talking about religion or politics all the time they bore me.

You have "every thread" confused with "a lot of posts to a few threads". Go back and count them. You, personally, have made a lot of posts regarding your religion. If you don't like talking about politics, then don't. But you do seem to have opinions in the area.

> Ha ha yeah those were funny. I still laugh about them today.

Yeah, that childish crap was just freakin' hilarious. I wonder why the kids who want to trash your house on Halloween aren't funny.

Yeah, that childish crap was just freakin' hilarious.Yeah whats your point?>Go back and count them.Youre the one who cares.>regarding your religion.I only said I was a Morman in one thread. Why dont YOU "Go back and count them".>I wonder why the kids who want to trash your house on Halloween aren't funny. Because I'm the one whos getting my house egged and I'm a selfish person.

Yeah whats your point?That it's hilarious if you are a child.> Youre the one who cares.You brought it up in this thread!> I only said I was a Morman in one thread. Why dont YOU "Go back and count them".I was saying that your idea that religion comes up "in basicaly every thread" is a load of crap. You have confused "every thread" with "a lot of posts to a few threads".> I'm a selfish person.It's not selfishness. It's hypocrisy.

It's not selfishness. It's hypocrisy. Thats the word I was looking for!>That it's hilarious if you are a child.Well I still find it hularious, not that I would do it now. I have better things to do. But looking back on it I find it funny.>You brought it up in this thread!You brought up my dinner but lets not point fingers. Walken started the thread if you read. I merely added my opinion.>I was saying that your idea that religion comes up "in basicaly every thread" is a load of crap. You have confused "every thread" with "a lot of posts to a few threads".You know what I ment, I obviously didnt mean it literaly like in every thread. You and your word play.

Walken started the thread if you read. I merely added my opinion.I read. You said that "its become alot less serious except for religious and political outburts in basicaly every thread."> No need to name cus everyone knows who they are.That was an obvious dig. No wonder you get into so many fights. You are always, always looking for fights. That is your way of life.> You know what I ment, I obviously didnt mean it literaly like in every thread. You and your word play.Bullshit. That's why I put it in quotes. If by "in basicaly every thread", you meant "a lot in a few threads", then I agree with you. But then who's playing with words here?
