So I'm sitting here. Well actually laying here in a semi-recline position if you want to get all technical about it. And I just made a decision that I think is probably overdue. I'm letting this account go idle. Now I haven't posted frequently in a good while, partially b/c of a few life changes. But looking around and seeing where my life is, I just can't square that with spouting off on here anymore.
Sorry for the mystery routine, but whatever, only four people are going to remember this anyways.
I've really enjoyed watching this site grow. I came here way back in the day before DailyKos was Dkos, and WAY before Dkos the Great Orange Satan that shalt not be named. It marks the one, and I am quite certain only, time in my life when I was ahead of the curve on a trend and actually showed up before all the kewl kids. Back then I was a determined Clark supporter who thought most of the people here were raving assholes. I only registered to tell the 5k idiots ahead of me to shut the fuck up already. But I stayed, and stayed, and before long I was a regular and I went through a lot of the ups and downs that the early site experienced. (Though I was camping for the totality of Pie Fight I, and I shall be forever grateful for that fact. 100% of the Booman I love with none of the mess, win/win)
When I first started posting here I was one of the better writers on the site IMHO. Not Kos good (Kos is a really kickass long form writer btw. He almost never does it anymore, but go look up some of his long long LONG form rants from the early days. As much as he tries to blame the rest of us for this megalopoblog we see around us it never would have happened without his style and wit.) I'm not trying to be cocky saying that, but well I am a good writer in my own way, and there were only 5k people ahead of me so really it wasn't all that hard a mantle to aspire to. Now looking around you've got world class writers conversing with dynamo social activists and one head of a f-ing epidemiology dept at one of the nations best hospitals. It's all absofinglutely insane. I mean could you ever imagine??? Just nuts.
It's awesome, and I'm proud of a lot of the things I've seen (creepy mass stalking of depressed nurses notwithstanding) and a lot of the things I helped in. But again it just doesn't fit anymore. So I've got to go.
SO DELETE MY FUCKING ACCOUNT YOU RATS BASTARDS!!!!!
Ok not really, I'll leave all the stuff up where it is and I won't lose the password anytime soon. But if I have any luck and/or willpower in the future this will be my last post at www.DailyKos.com
It's been one hell of a ride, thanks for all the fish.
