Today: I still have a job! I have mixed feelings about this.

Seriously, I worked myself up thinking I was in some sort of hot water (for what I didn't know) because of a meeting today between me and my boss and the director and it was just about me taking over a process. Taking over stuff I LOVE to do.

What a maroon!

My own worst enemy!

I still get my paycheck every 15th and 31st.

I hope this won't cut into your Cellar time.

infinite monkey · 10-21-2011, 10:43 AM

I spend way too much time here anyway. I get distracted, disgusted with the website, headachy...hey, let's go look at the Cellar!

I have mixed feelings about having been in the Cellar since April of 2006 without ever having started a thread. While my quest for a Guinness World Record as the longest continuously participating member of a virtual community to never have started a thread is exciting, I'm concerned that if I achieve such status it will turn my head and I will no longer be the humble dwellar I am today. It's been said that some of life's more valuable lessons are learned in the struggle to achieve, rather than the actual attainment of goals which bodes well for me staying the course not to mention that I'm a model of self control for attention whores who start a thread about every thought passing through their minds (especially if they have mixed feelings about it). OTOH, I could begin starting threads myself and not have to wait on others to initiate timely discussions in which I might contribute significant knowledge or experience that helps someone else in their daily lives. The opportunities to serve fresh food for thought would not be delayed by a reliance on others to create the appetite. Sure, there's always the possibility of segues into new topics via thread drift; but, spontaneity suffers. Then there's a concern that if I begin starting threads now at this late date, I might try to make up for lost time and flood the board with OPs; or worse, that I'll become OP addicted and get swallowed up in the underworld of ME ME ME. Medical science has not yet developed a DNA test for predisposition to attention whoring and I wonder if attention whoring, like yawning, could even be contagious! I suppose that I'm destined for either great fame with Guinness; or, falling into obscurity when anyone does a search for threads started by me. It's extreme dwelling, pushing the dwellar envelope, going out on the Cellar fringe and still being here to tell about it ... albeit with mixed feelings.

Naaaawwwwwwwwwww, I'm simply not inclined to compete with those who just like to hear themselves talk.

Well, maybe once in awhile.

Nice.

You'll win the guiness prize for the most thinly-veiled insults, don't you worry your pretty little head about it. It's not as cool as, say, having stuff to say...but it's kind of cool. Like the guy with the 40 foot long fingernails: kind of gross, but kind of funny.

sexobon · 10-21-2011, 01:32 PM

You seem to have mixed feelings about it. That was so easy. I say again ...

infinite monkey · 10-21-2011, 01:33 PM

No, THAT was easy.

sexobon · 10-21-2011, 01:42 PM

Easy is as easy does

and

Easy does it (again)!

infinite monkey · 10-21-2011, 01:44 PM

Easy peasy Japanesy!

I didn't have an easy bake oven, but I had one of these. It made little round cakes.

sexobon · 10-21-2011, 02:34 PM

I didn't live in The Big Easy; but, I went to the World's Fair there.

infinite monkey · 10-21-2011, 02:45 PM

I don't like eggs over easy. Over medium is better.
