... That there's a person behind all the posts you read.

It's sort of eerie when you think about it. Maybe they're just reading your posts and doing nothing else, but probably not. It's likely they're talking to someone, or eating something, or thinking about something --maybe they share your dreams--, or listening to music. Maybe they're mad at something and won't say. It's like another one of you, on the other side of the forum. Could you be sharing similar thoughts with them? Maybe they're experiencing something very interesting.

That's not just a post you're reading, it's a person.

And there are so many beautiful people sharing bits of themselves here on the forum

It IS easy to forget that on the web.  I find it easier to remember on this forum, though, as I've been here for quite a while now, and there are some people on here I probably speak to more often than I do close friends!

Don't forget there is also a person behind every username that you see lurking and not posting and he's probably very angry.....   hmm, also quite hungry.....  aaargh, and he's just been spotted by the boss because he's at work and shouldn't be aimlessly surfing the internet.....

gotta go

Oh deggs

[bhobbes]

You're all just a bunch of 0s and 1s to me.

[LuckyPleo]

haha bhobles!

It isn't as easy to on here because it's a small forum, but it's funny because someone will change their avatar and I'm like "nooo! now I can't tell who's who!"

Degers has it all wrong.  Nobody comes here "aimlessly surfing the internet".  We're too much of a niche site.  People do their aimless surfing once they get here and start reading topics like this one!

And since we don't want people to leave the forums angry and hungry,  the pizza and root beer is on me!!!!

How about a cake for everyone?  <-- No, that's too wimpy.

How about THIS?

Just picture a cake like that, but the size of a Kota.  Mmm!!

[kat]

Now that is the perfect cake for a forum like us!  
So now we have cake, all you can eat pizza and root beer!
Sounds like a forum party to me......

[InmemoryofRomeo]

I am not a person, I am a highly sophisticated life form sent here from a distant planet to study the effects of life forms on human kind...

 

[LuckyPleo]

Of course, trust IMR to come up with something like that. 


The only problem with cake and rootbeer on here is that it's hard to get it in your mouth 

[mweed]

I tried licking the screen.  Shocking!  But not very tasty.

Still...... it gives you quite a buzz if you do it over and over......
Have some more....
