I miss the girls.  They gave this place that certain touch that countered the macho posturing and provided a more socialized, less competitive feel.

YOU THINK?

I've always wanted to be a girl.  Does that help?

Competitive? I don't remember anything of the sort throughout my first couple of years browsing the Shop. Spirited debate? Most definately. That's what made this place so damn awesome back in the day. There were so many ideas & theories being thrown around by so many, but everyone knew it was all toward the same goal. It didn't matter WHO had the best thought, but the thought itself is what mattered. Then you could take what someone else had started, and everyone else would try to expand on that towards 'an answer' of sorts. It was truly a thing to behold. It sucks that everyone who came later couldn't have experienced it.

When all the off topic stuff started going down, the wheels began to fall off. Times changed, SMiLE was 'finished,' new people came, and a good number of the old ones left. Meaning this: No one is to blame for anything. There's no fingers to point for the 'downfall' or the 'rising.' Times just changed. That's just my opinion though. I was never here to socialize, I was here to learn. And what an education it was. I'm not one to live in the past, but I'm definately one to move on. I just enjoy coming back to see what's up every once in awhile. That and having Sebs back around brought me back out a little more. It's good to have that man around.

Hell, Sebastian was really the first dude I 'socialized' with on the SMiLE shop back in the day.

The weird thing is, it makes me feel so old to think I've been around here for so long...



But I just only turned 24
