  1. Humor Is Not My Strongsuit

     

     

              Ethan was the average student. He kept to himself, got remarkable grades, stayed out of trouble; there was nothing really unique to him. He brought forth this epiphany in class when they decided to throw a randomized-role talent show. I hope I just get something easy, like magic...or prostitute for all that matters, he thought to himself. As it was his turn to pick out an assignment, he stood lazily and sauntered to the front of the dull, beige room.

            As he approached the glass bowl containing the scraps of paper deciding his embarrassing fate, Ethan began thinking about all the other choices he could select instead. I'm only the fourth person grabbing one. The twins got singing duet, the neanderthal who he was certain couldn't speak English, or any language but caveman, got a drum solo. My choices are there, now let's see about my luck. He dove his hand into the bowl and with a few paper-cuts, received his sentence. He clutched the paper close to him and opened it slowly, sealing his destiny with his spilling blood. With eyes closed, the paper was pulled fully open and with a deep breath, read out to the class. "My talent show assignment is to perform a....Stand Up Comedy session?" 

          It was all over. Ethan was to die, and his classmates would be his pallbearers. He had his anxiety, of course, but comedy and jokes have been a touchy subject the past few years. He would have to wait until he got home to freely break down. For now: he was to smile and pick out his casket attire.

          Once home, Ethan called his best friend, the king of comedy in their school. Once Jason made it to his house, they unloaded their backs, grabbed all the food and soda they could carry and scurried into Ryan's room with a satisfying thud . "So, I got a talent show project coming up." Ryan started off, opening his drink. "I got the absolute worst assignment. I'm talking I'd rather be that guy who thinks that because he listens to screamo, he's good at performing it in public. I need your help, man."

          Jason snorts and slides a controller across the floor to pick it up. "What exactly can I help you with if it's that bad?" He grabs Ryan's drink and chugs it, passing him a fresh one to replace it.

          "Well, I got comedian. We both know black-haired, pasty white teens are not allowed to tell jokes."

         Jason looks at him and nods in agreement and thought. "People like memes. Maybe reference them?" With eyes widening, he smacks Ryan on the knee with his revelation. "Two words, man. Black people."

           Ryan wasn't uncomfortable with the rest of the conversation, so he tuned his racist humor out and played games until night. Tomorrow was the talent show, and Ryan had nothing. He knew that he couldn't afford to fail this. Maybe Jason was right. About the memes, not the slavery. Ryan confirms to himself.

           There was not much memory of the talent show. Ryan seemingly teleported from the entrance, to the back stage, to the front of the stage with a microphone and a dry erase board, one he brought from home without realizing. He was drawing a blank, admitting his defeat instantly. Wait! Drawing! He grabbed his dry erase board and drew a sloppy, shaken triangle. He raised it up in resemblance to the Lion King, and at the top of his lungs, he shouts 

     

    "MEME!"

     

    The crowd slowly began laughing, and he was relieved. It went on this way for 20 minutes. All was well! Nothing went wrong! They all loved him!

     

    "Now, let's just mention the biggest joke there is... Equality"

     

    The End

  2. Here's a great idea that I hope everyone takes the time to take part of! 

     

    The challenge is to write something positive about the person who commented last. Example with someone who won't mind being tagged:

     

    @Aquaticfilly0 is a great person who is fun to be around, creates funny and welcoming memories, and is a pleasure to play games with and talk to. 

     

    Who's next!

  3. With the holidays speeding through, what's your favorite memory of how you spent one of them? 

     

    My favorite is spending Xmas Eve starting at noon: playing the first Spyro trilogy in a marathon with friends leading up to midnight where if we 100% all three in time, we'd each pick a holiday movie and vote an order to watch it and spend xmas day binging, or if we didn't, we forced ourselves to speedrun the games over then speedrun the crash trilogy after. Sometimes I would purposely forget a gem in the third game as midnight would come up, but eventually I'd pressure myself to going back ans getting it to feel completed, but I enjoyed the speedrunning more than the movies sometimes. Lol. 

     

  4. As someone who once used an aimbot when I was 10 on the og CS, that's definitely it. Not even a soft aim either.  Your crosshair instantly went from around kidney range to his skull without any drag or blur. I didn't even need to slow it down. You seem to have been using it for awhile now since you may also have it as a bind to toggle. Would make sense seeing as you stopped before swapping weapons then went back to completely shit aim. I'm definitely with @Zer0 on this one

  5. First pointer, yes it included me telling you to chill in reports simce you verbally abused the kid who reported you in the first place. 

     

    Secondly, if I had gotten that kind of speech in the first place, I wouldn't have reciprocated. 

     

    Third, there's a difference between bickering/pestering about a subject over and over and making a joke about it. 

     

    Finally, they weren't gettin slain for delaying because I was busy dealing with you carrying on and reports of the round. Your attitude still gets you nowhere and I'm sorry you feel that way, but the ban stays

  6. I never said you all came together as a group, I said you all were harassing her, thus i grouped you into a harassment group. You said in voice chat (AND I QUOTE) "Guys keep rdming Bunny and it's hilarious!" Maybe i took it in a different context, but in the end whoever got people to push her off the cliff and attempt rdm her was *YOU.* You pushed her off. Cleetus and SD were also banned for targetting and harassment. And I gave you plenty of vulgar warnings because even when I have the flu, I had to come and babysit because you all wanted to be asses and pick on one sole person. With the fact you want to bicker about it, I will make sure you serve the week ban. @PB-n-J @TheLastBee @Violator if one of you would like to close this. 

  7. When a player has to tag an admin on the gmod discord because Bunny was being targetted by your little group, it's no damn wonder you got banned. I came in the round prior and while she was doing admin work, you told everyone to rdm her again along with "SDBait[Hero]" and then you pushed her off the cliff, doing way more than 50 damage which is an attempted RDM. I had kept telling you all to stop, and you didn't listen. I will not stand for bullying or harassment, so I will not shorten your ban or unban all together. And the next time you want to be apart of our community, I don't ever want to see this again. 

     

    @PB-n-J we can either wait for @Bunnynator to also give her input since she may or may not have screenshots of the events or we can just go ahead and lock this. I can also tag atleast 3 witnesses.

  8. This is an awesome idea @Bae  

     

    If It'll help others see it, I can share my story a little to help people see there is always others there for you. 

     

    Back in high school, I had began my first serious relationship. She had a troubled past herself and we ended up bonding over the things that went wrong in our lives, and that was the first mistake to over a year of toxicity and a real world experience. As time went on, I turned to drugs and other resorts. Eventually my body shut down, my only kidney (had cancer as a child) was failing. After starting to get clean, I left her and began to live in my car until my best friend literally pulled me out of it, brought me into his house, and told me to get back on my feet. Now him and I still talk daily, my older friends came back into contact and support me, and I've been clean for over 2 years. 

     

    Tl;dr - my friends helped me go from rock bottom to the best I've ever been. You're never truly alone. Always ask for help when you need it.
