'Ello^_^ How are you?

-BGS

Gah!
Sorry!
Still getting used to this myspace profile thing here!

I loved the Poem, that was sweetness! ^_^
That's a seriously feel-good thing to think of when you feel down!
Thanks for that Bro! ^_^

:huggles:

Aye, someone mentioned a day or so ago about Reboot - I just hope my lady Hexadecimal comes back in the remakes!

Muffin: Fickle pastry that is often seen flitting between ZU and real life, but exceptionally fond of the Goron race and big Goron hugs!

You're really bad at replying to me, you know that? Well I've come bearing another gift. I just got word from this site that they are in works on making a ReBoot movie trillogy. The info has been out since the begining of this month (so this news isn't relatively new), but I'd thought I'd let you know either way.

I didn't buy you a gift, but I read this quote somewhere and I'd like to paraphrase it for you (and change the ending since it was misleading):

"How much does your life weigh? Imagine for a second that you're carrying a backpack. I want you to pack it with all the stuff that you have in your life...you start with the little things; the shelves, the drawers, the knickknacks, then you start adding larger stuff. Clothes, tabletop appliances, lamps, your TV...the backpack should be getting pretty heavy now. You go bigger. Your couch, your car, your home...I want you to stuff it all into that backpack. Now I want you to fill it with people. Start with casual acquaintances, friends of friends, co-workers...and then you move into people you trust with your most intimate secrets. Your best friends, your brothers, your sisters, your children, your parents, and finally your husband, your wife, your boyfriend, your girlfriend. You get them into that backpack, feel the weight of that bag. Make no mistake your relationships are the heaviest components in your life...[We] were meant to carry each other symbiotically over a lifetime".

And when the weight of the world seems too much to bare,
always remember the people who helped you there,
the struggles & strife you fought through
and suddenly that backpack will feel lighter than air.

PS: We gorons weigh a ton, so try not to throw your back out

Aww - cheers Big Bro!

It's your birthday?! HAPPY BIRTHDAY SD! Happy Birthday to you. Happy Birthday to you. Happy Birthday dear SD! Happy Birthday to you. How old are you now? How old are you now? How old are you noooooow? How old are you now? One. Two. Three. Four. Five. Six. Seven. Eight. Nine. Ten. Eleven. Twelve. Thirteen. Fourteen. Fifteen. Sixteen. Seventeen. Eighteen. Nineteen?...Twenty???

I guess nice guys do always finish last then. Here's my theory. Women (not all mind you) like to go through a rebellious phase. They go out with the guys they've always dreamed of (aka: the bad boy, the rocker, the stoner, etc...) to get something exciting in their life. But once they are ready to settle down (and they no longer want to work on a man to go from rebellious to tame) they go for the nice guys to start a family with. Well it seems like I'm one of those nice guys, but guess what, I want some fun too before I get married! I don't want to live a dull life just waiting for a girl to settle for me. I also want to bang the hot chicks. Why don't girls just give me a chance, and I mean a good chance. I'm not a bad guy, I really don't think I am, but it's getting a little tiresome going home with no one to talk to. Nobody to curl up in a blanket with. Nobody to love T_T

I disagree - you're acutely aware of reality, hence why you preoccupy yourself with things that entertain you online. And you're not the only one - EVERYONE does this - not necessarily through the internet, but in sports, hobbies, etc. You are not a coward. By your logic, we'd all be cowards in that respect.
So, with that topic, I definatly feel that you're not doing anything unlike the rest of the planet - life is a *****, which is why we've as humans devised so many ways to escape it!
ig Goron Hugs!! ^_______^ :

As for the Lady issue - why feel guilty that they, in my opinion, are using you?
Seriously Marco - you're far too awesome and sweet a guy to feel guilty forsomething not your fault a all.
Quite frankly, they sound like they were taking advantage of your god nature - you're there for people all the time buddy, and they pick up on that. Maybe let them know that while you're a nice guy, they have to earn your trust (hell, who shouldn't? ) and that you are not to be used. Again you're far too awesome, big bro!

You are right. ZU (and the internet, cellphones, blackberries,etc...) is an escape. My problem is that I think I escape from life/reality too much. ZU because I feel like an important figure that's needed/wanted (something I don't necessarily feel from family and strangers offline), comedy (like webcomics, funny vids, comedians, and comedic shows) because life is too depressing. I have an appreciation for comedy because in one form or another it strikes a painful cord we all share from a previous/parallel experience (and laughter is the outcome). Drama immitates life, and comedy is the reiteration of drama, so really comedy is a warped vision of reality. I can see it, but what I really need is a dose of reality, no matter how depressing it is. I laugh so I won't cry, and I hide behind a screen so that nobody can really see what I truely am. A coward.

And as for the women, my question still is why do they always return to their previous bf? If they broke up with me and went for another completely different guy, then I'd understand (and feel less guilty), but that isn't the case. To me it feels like they are cheating on me (well deffinentally the last gf).

It's not a case of wanting to grow up - not at all!
Just a case of when you no longer feel as close or attached to the site, is the main factor in my opinion.
ZU is no toy, in that respect. ZU is an escape and a large appeal is to meet those like-minded people you can't find in real life, and there's no saying that those you meet here can be those outside of ZU too!

I remember you telling me about your ex, and to be quite honest; What a tramp. If those were her actions, she neither deserved someone as sweet and kind-hearted as you. That's my opinion with the details I know so far.
With regards to being a rebound boyfriend, my feeling is that, since knowing you personally myself, you really do have this emanating aura of safety and warmth - for a lady (or guy xD) that's a hugely attracting set of qualities amongst many others you have - and simultaneously maybe why your ex girlfriends and rebounding ones get attracted in one respect to you maybe?
Perhaps with the one that you thought was great for you, you find out her real intentions, I think if you really engage her in such conversation, then if she had any ulterior motives, like getting back properly with you, you'd see that and pick up on it - conversely, if it was just something "to do" while watiing for her current boyfriend, you could pick up on that too, and in that case you would know not to go down that area. Although if she has a hait of doing this to you, I'd say perhaps be selfish for once and see what happens! Either way, I think you're too sweet and sometimes naie a guy - you only seem to see the good in people, but while I think that's endearing, I certainly don't want it to cause troubles in your life.

All this is purely my speculation, but I hope it's somewhat insightful! ^_^

Hugs for my big bro!!
