3 weeks 178 replies to your ask away thread

roughly 8 1/2 per day.

now i have no way to compare this one to your highly successful one on WP, but i would be interested in comparing the stats, side by side.
i think it took about 4 months to hit 500 replies, there.

at your current pace, here, you will be at over 1000 in 4 months.

not too bad, kiddo.

The only thing i regret about being banned from wp is that i can't see that thread anymore. Silly nostalgic me.

who is that highly sesual man in your avatar?

is it sean?

is that typo supposed to be 'sensual' or 'sexual'?

no, but you do bear a slight resemblance to him in that picture.

i found myself looking into a mirror of my younger self.

remember when he had that brooding avatar of his on WP.  the one where he looked like he was sitting in an office somewhere.  i was astonished at the resemblence to me.  i pm'ed him about it and he, acting all high and mighty never responded.

but it is uncanny how we do bare a resemblence, looks wise (for clarification)

was his dad a postman or something.

hey, wait one second.  my dad did work for the southern california gas company.  you don't suppose...
Misunderstood.

it may not happen today, nor tomorrow, but mark my words, if its the last thing i ever do, you will have your hard work back.

unless of course, he is lurking, notices this and deletes the entire thing before we have a chance to appropriate the thread for your posterity.  which is, of course possible.

It is not only my "hard work", but the "hard work" of others. I mostly want it to review it for memories. Like I said, I'm nostalgic.  :-\ I also heard that people posted in it after I was banned...like hale_bopp, who knew I was banned but was probably trying to be spiteful and/or funny.

I saw the picture of you with your family somewhere. I have to agree that your daughters are very beautiful. :)

I don't have much of a relationship with my dad right now. It's kind of complicated, but I'll try to explain the best I can.  :-\ He moved out when I was nine, and I used to visit him on the weekends a lot up until a few years ago when I became busy with work and school and he and his live-in girlfriend of 5 years (who I'd grown attached to) broke up. He lives with a new girlfriend now (yeah, the man can't be alone), and it's like he expects my sister and I to have the same relationship with her. He doesn't seem to understand why we don't. I suspect he has AS, (he's immature for his age, collects a lot of things, is socially inappropriate, etc.) but he would never admit he has anything "wrong" with him. Since I'm older and things are different now, I don't see him much anymore, but most likely will for Father's Day.
