You can stop asking
So, I had this nice little nostalgic post on RRs, that had some vague point and was good.
And the fuckers in LJ-land ate it.
I may try reconstructing later, but I could scream right now.
Instead, I shall make note of some of the papers I've come across. One, is a story by Twiller, it's a Quake Log, and it's utterly brilliant. *pokes Twiller* Write, damn you.
Second, is a letter. It's from Alicia Mc to a certain... 'disturbance maker' on OTL. Keeping in mind this is 1998, who is it? Many out there are probably automatically thinking it's Nute.
It's not.
For a moment, I'm going to sit here feeling all strange. See, these printouts are from 1998. December, so, four and a half years ago... Suddenly, I feel old. Very old.
In four and a half years, I've grown older, possibly wiser. Certainly more cynical. In some ways I'm more jaded than ever. In others... Best to leave that thought till later, I guess. I don't miss 1998. There was a lot of happiness then, but there was also a lot of frustration and anger.
Amusingly, I've had to eat my words of back then. I thought everyone should be happy and friendly, and that cliques were Bad. People can't be made to be happy.
And not everyone will get along.
We can be civil, however. Or the Sybil. But that's SoI.
(sidenote: Tappy, darlin', you really have a thing for making cute guys. Gil and Finn in the same panel... Be still mah heart)
Back to the letter. It was to Skyrocket, who appears to have dropped off the face of the earth. And who once was a complete and utter twat on OTL.
Kind of strange, really. There's nowhere near as much controversy nowadays.
I think I miss it.
