@Robusto: And I apologize for the manner in which I had responded. I had assumed, from the way that you had worded your statement, that you had attacked the religion in general, rather than just the extremists. And this week, and today, have just been roller coasters of emotions for me. I've had to go through all kinds of spells of anger, sadness, joy, and, when I saw that, it kind of invoked all of those feelings. Thus, given my rage and my rant and my regret, I'm very sorry for what I said in that respect, and I feel absolutely horrible about it.

I agree with you. I don't like to hear those horrible stories. It makes me sad, it breaks my heart, and yeah, I did cry repeatedly last night when I heard about the details of the Paris shootings/bombings (I have a weak heart; so what?) Extremists are wrong, despicable, and horrible people, no matter the religion. Therefore, yes, I understand why you said what you did. I apologize for having upset you in any way, and I apologize for having criticized you in such an unfair manner because of my mistake interpretation of what you said.

There's nothing wrong with being a little emotional. The world could use more sensitive people. And it's ok. Let's face it, I made a little bit of a bigot's statement with that first post. But I'm glad we could come to an understanding.

WHOOOOA
It looks like an amazingly graceful Tingle! (Legend of Zelda character for those who don't know.)
Good job Buggie. Good job.
And once I obtain a Wacom drawing tablet, soon I can begin my journey of becoming an artist as well. I do enjoy creating things after all. Stories, lego sculptures, diabolical schemes...

Ooh, you're getting a tablet, Robusto? Do you know which model yet?

Yes indeed. The CTH430 if my memory serves me. I'm very much looking forward to begin drawing. Using a mouse is very inaccurate. Expect illustrations of my favorite scenes from this SB.

And anyone care to explain how the course of history was altered by a time traveler to result in a completely primate themed YWS website?
I'm not the only one who remembers a YWS before everything went chimp, yes?

happy yws day everypeoples. Sadly I get to spend it sick ;-;. Robusto, what you said about the paris attacks and muslims is understandable, but wrong. What you're doing is pooling a handful of muslim extremists....and isis...... into one group and making it the face of all muslims ever. Its like stereotyping and its a basic mistake everyone makes

Yes, Happy Birthday, YWS (and to think I'm only a couple of years older than it. That is crazy. o-o)! :D

...Oh goodness, I don't have much more time left before I have to leave for the day, so I had better make it quick.

@Robusto: The time traveler? Oh, you must mean Stella...

...I mean, of course not! It's always been like this. Always has, always will be. Of course. :P

And yes, a Happy YWS Birthday to you too. And to all of my friends in this SB and throughout the website as well. You have all helped develop amazingly well as a writer and a poet, and I've learned so much in the 10 months that I have spent here. Yes, it's been an absolutely wonderful YWS birthday - that radio show, in particular, was exceptional - and I'm elated and joyous at the end of the day. I haven't had such a good time in a long while, and it reminds me of how much I have enjoyed this site in the time that I have spent in it, particularly with my friends. So yes, may you all have a wonderful day, and I'm glad to be with such great friends as you. :D

... and yep, now I've got to leave. Have a great rest of your day, everybody! :D

@Verser: Yeah, I made a mistake. But I realized I spoke harshly, and amended my statement.

*feels guilty about remembering YWS' birthday in the weeks leading up to it, but forgetting a few days before it*

Err... Happy Birthday, YWS! However, I'm not feeling very cheery after today's and yesterday's events - hey, look: my nose just started bleeding for dramatic effect >_> - so I'll be back tomorrow.
But the Fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.

What? Today's YWS' birthday? Huh. Well happy birthday, then. Had totally forgotten about that. How many years does YWS has now?

And why did I spend my life savings on sunglasses for a whale?
I shall find the answers... to these questions."



Daddy Long Legs are more closely related to crabs than spiders and somehow the idea of crablike creatures with spider legs that have escaped the entrappings of the primordial sea and now crawl over land and can walk up and down walls and ceilings creeps me more than I can adequately describe.
