Title: Something you don't know about me...
Post by: XStream on September 25, 2014, 02:05:13 AM
It's been a while, but we used to do things like this every now and again. We would share something about ourselves that we maybe hadn't shared on the board before (or even the dreaded "Are You Brave Enough" thread).

I was putting a spoiler filled post together over in the Gotham thread and as I painstakingly worked to perfect my spoilers, color, and bold text; I asked myself, "Why did you ever start making your posts so complicated?" (Cause, yeah, I do talk to myself like that often).

So, here it is. Something you don't know about me...

Back in the early days of FR, I was new to message boards. I was really into Freedom Force, and the idea of a place online where I could talk with people who enjoyed the same things I did online blew my mind. I was reading through threads all hours of the night, and most of our threads were more like chats. There were times I would have to hit refresh just to read the latest posts. Most threads that I follow I also comment in and I decided that I would post in color so that I could quickly scroll through the posts to find what I last read/said, but... MJB had already chosen my favorite color! So I chose to post in bold and blue rather than picking a different color.

So there you have it. If you've ever wondered, now you know.

So, what's something we might not know about you?

Now I know.  And knowing (as they say) is half the battle.  BAWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAWWAAAH!

Not sure what's worse. Picturing Reep licking his elbow, Vamp licking Reep's elbow, or murs sitting around looking at pictures of Vamp licking Reep's elbow... :mellow:

Just be glad you weren't there for the time we tried all three.

Haha, that might be the better part of valor. ^_^

Originally, Batman was my favorite character, but I've always had a soft-spot for underdogs.  Thus, Aquaman, who I'd always liked, began to grow on me when I got back into comics in college.

I suffer from extreme depression that has been flaring up a bit more than I really would like it to.  Part of that is thanks to some stuff elsewhere online. Oh wait...this is supposed to be a funny post?!?!?!?!  Guess I'm just not into that right now....

Pfft, it's a thread for stuff we don't know. Most of us know aaaaallll about your crazy habits already, so there's very little else you could have posted

Spoiler

In all seriousness though, I have my own issues with depression kicking me in the nuts. If you need to talk, or even just someone to snark at, I've got your back.

Geez, we should start a our own support group here...


As for things that people here don't know about me, I honestly have no clue, I've always tried to be pretty up front about things because I want people to know who they're dealing with.

I'm sure there's something that I'm not thinking of though, and as soon as I figure it out, I'll edit this post.  :P

DJ,
As someone who had a terrible year, I can relate. Please let us know if we can help anyway.
Something you don't know about me?
I wanted to be a soccer player or a comic book artist when I was a kid. Yeah, weird kid...

To escape from the misery of everyday life, I go to my mancave and visit this site while I read my comics.  If I didn't do that, I would be a very stressful angry person
