I wonder how a Gordon Lightfoot avatar would go over on WP. He was a great performer, but he had a checkered past with women. Maybe I'll just stick with Om Nom.


I suspect it would go over fine.

Same goes for Michael Jackson or Rick James or probably even Varg Vikernes.

I disguised my real voice with a Cockney accent for years so I wouldn't scare people off.

Wow that Accent Guru is interesting. I tried it 3 times because I was curious what they would say. And I got three different answers. haha :lol:

1st time: 60% Polish, 30% East Slavic. "Wow, your accent is Polish, but you speak like a native English speaker!" - ok so, maybe similar to places some ancestors lived?
2nd time: 70% Chinese, 30% American "Based on your speech I can say that you have a light Chinese accent" - Maybe the influence of Chinese neighbours and friends with Chinese heritage! haha
3rd time: 70% American, 30% British - "Wow, your accent is American, but you speak like a native English speaker!" Maybe the least surprising of them since I speak English.

Anyway, I don't know how accurate it was but it was fun to do.

I've been dealt a set of cards. Instead of playing the cards I've been dealt, I was complaining. Also, take your pills before you go to bed.

stickdriving doesn't mean that you push the car all the way- what
there's too much america (usa) in autism
ow :roll: ofcource you can pay for more 'resources'



lets hope this era of (self)victimisation as a fashion attribute be gone soon,

What happened in 'Good King Wenceslas' after the 'poor man came in sight, gathering winter fuel'? I never found out, or maybe can no longer remember.

I don't remember it being this long, but here it is in all its novel-like glory -

Good King Wenceslas looked out,
on the Feast of Stephen,
When the snow lay round about,
deep and crisp and even;
Brightly shone the moon that night,
tho’ the frost was cruel,
When a poor man came in sight,
gath’ring winter fuel.

“Hither, page, and stand by me,
if thou know’st it, telling,
Yonder peasant, who is he?
Where and what his dwelling?”
“Sire, he lives a good league hence,
underneath the mountain;
Right against the forest fence,
by Saint Agnes’ fountain.”

“Bring me flesh, and bring me wine,
bring me pine logs hither:
Thou and I will see him dine,
when we bear them thither.”
Page and monarch, forth they went,
forth they went together;
Through the rude wind’s wild lament
and the bitter weather.

“Sire, the night is darker now,
and the wind blows stronger;
Fails my heart, I know not how;
I can go no longer.”
“Mark my footsteps, good my page.
Tread thou in them boldly
Thou shalt find the winter’s rage
freeze thy blood less coldly.”

In his master’s steps he trod,
where the snow lay dinted;
Heat was in the very sod
which the saint had printed.
Therefore, Christian men, be sure,
wealth or rank possessing,
Ye who now will bless the poor,
shall yourselves find blessing.

aut vids are a hit or miss, mostly miss though
probably bc its all too american, or australian? rather often, i wish they would be clearer on that

another one on all these career woman with aut, well that's not me i guess im not feminine in the sense of masking
maybe mother was a high masking something, very much nervous masking going on, that never attracted me

well i guess the career women are expected to have the money for all these 'ressources'
those without are no market at all

Whenever I hear about people claiming that peppering dialogue with Cluster F-bombing in media makes them inherently "better", I just want to scream at the top my my lungs. :x

I'm going to try and keep my TV turned off until 6 PM tonight. There once was a spirited Mod who was into music. He posted videos of British bands, especially The Kinks. 10 Years ago, he fell in love with television. Everything about him changed, including his avatar.
