Giving it up (no, I'm not leaving)
Posted 17 years agoI'm seriously done, for good, with trolling/spamming/etc. At first, it's sorta funny in that you can get away with a lot of stuff. But after a while, I'm getting burned out on it, and now it's sort of a bad addiction that I need to stop.
First off, if I've ever, ever, ever flamed/trolled/spammed/whatever your page/submissions/journals/etc. here on FA or on any other place out there, let me first and foremost apologize for any hurt or alienation I've caused, and that I only ask for your forgiveness if it's not too late. I also would like to make reparations and see if we couldn't start things off again, on the right foot this time.
Along those same lines, I wish there was a way to directly apologize to anyone who has me blocked (yeah, there are a few, as I've discovered), but unless someone else sends my words of apology vicariously to them, I'm afraid I really can't make amends with them.
The thing is, I care about people. I want to make people happy and I want to be known as a friend to everyone. I feel like, with some folks, I have suffered greatly in that department. I get anxious and bogged down whenever I think of how much I've kinda fucked up with some potential friends.
But enough of that, I just want to say I want to turn things around, and try to rebuild a reputation as someone who really cares. Thanks for listening everyone; I really appreciate each and every one of you guys ^^ As my only real connection to the furry community, you guys make each moment worthwhile.

lol, critiques
Posted 17 years agoA friend of mine pointed out to me that writers here on FA need to grow some THICK SKIN and learn how to take critiques better. Seriously, he showed me this one story where everyone was basically pandering to the writer, and then when he decides to add some real input, it's like, OH NO YOU DON'T, THIS IS MY STORY AND YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO JUST SHUT UP AND ACCEPT THAT I'M BRILLIANT, OKAY?
okay, so, maaaaybe it wasn't like that. But really, someone who is critiquing (spelling? lol) your work means that they want you to get better! :D not because they're inherently critical and evil or something. If you never face any critique, you'll never get better, period.
this tirade brought to you by Simmy, and his friend, who you all probably know as Sov. :D

A big, fat blah
Posted 17 years agoMan, I'm starting to hate talking on messenger more and more, mostly just because I always leave with this 'blah' feeling, like "why did I bother to talk to so-n-so?" or "God, that was the most awkward/stagnant/boring/pointless/etc. conversation I've ever gone through" or "Well, THAT person sucessfully made me feel like utter shit"
You get the idea.
You get the idea.
the most over-used name in my repertoire
Posted 17 years agoRichard. Really, I look through a lot of my writings (poetry, short story, ongoing larger works) and there's always a Richard character, or the name Richard mentioned, or something to do with a Richard.
My god.

*sighs* Did SOMEONE overreact much?
Posted 17 years agoA note I received, and my reply (which would have been sent, but, o noes, I was blocked!) :
"You seem like the kind of person whom thinks he needs the last word, your defence in your manorisms and pride in it. I know this is just fuel for what you may want to post about me, ir try to dig up again, but you know I really dont care. You can troll me if you wish if it will give ya that sense of smugness that compells your kind knowing that i couldnt do anythign about it, wasting your time with nonsense. I am requesting that you do not attempt to contact me, comment on my pages, troll with your other accounts or make this into some sort of big deal or net triumph. Im not looking for a fight cuse I simply wont and im not fun to play with because im frankly tired of dealing with users that have nothing better to do with their time to make others feel miserable. Post this, do whatever ya want I really dont care. Leave me alone.

Dude, I don't troll :/ I never have and probably never will. I was just wondering why you wanted to know. Please, don't overreact! It seems rather unfair of you to automatically assume I'm out to get you. :/ I just enjoy ED, but I've never taken part in it. Take a deep breath! Relax! It's alright bud!"

Will someone please, PLEASE tell
Zippo to take a chill-pill, and tell him that I'm not out to get him! My goodness! All I did was ask the dude a question and he overreacts! :/ Seems a bit outrageous, don't ya think?

Posted 17 years agoI've been feeling a bit blue, and a bit sick lately. Sorry for all the delays with the gift stories and everything, but I've been kind of down lately. :/ Don't really know why.
Clearing up some misconceptions
Posted 17 years agoHave you ever had any unanswered questions about the great state of Utah? How about it's token religion, Mormonism? Simmy is here to answer those questions for you! :D
Oh, and Utah furries who already know everything about Utah, no question from you! >:3
Alright, ask away!

Guess the activity!
Posted 17 years agoYou put the long, hard shaft
Into your hot, waiting mouth
You play with it around your tongue
In and out, in and out,
You feel it building up inside you
you go faster, and faster
until the white creamy liquid fills your mouth
you spit, and it's all over
What is this activity?
...

And the correct answer is....
Brushing your teeth! :D

Overhaul
Posted 17 years agojust got done moving my "meh..." submissions into the scraps. And I finally deleted all those crazy pics of me dancing to music (jesusfuck there were so many).
I'll probably be deleting other "wtf" pictures soon, too :3 More room for what's important: stories and songs about fat furries, muscle furries, etc.
anywho, what else is everyone up to?

What makes being a furry GREAT?
Posted 17 years agoYou know what I've decided?
I get a bit tired of hearing about furry drama, people wanting to leave FA, furry hate, etc etc etc, all that malarky that everyone brings up that makes the furry community BAD.
You know what I wanna do instead?
How about make a list of things that make being a furry AWESOME???
Better yet, how about we ALL make a list like that?
THE GREAT THINGS ABOUT BEING A FURRY:
- Cons
- Bringing people together around the world
- Great art and literature (and music, too!)
- IM/RP/Chat/etc. is FUN!
- Plushies are awesome
- There seems to be a niche for everyone
- Some of the nicest folks are furries
- FA is a nice place that's FREE and has a very nice interface, and has an entertaining entourage and management staff
- From the most simple to the most exotic, everyone has a place in the community
- Being a furry helps build tolerance
- We have our own brand of humor
- Despite what the world may think, each furry has their own unique experience, be it a casual hobby to a total lifestyle
Have anything you think should be added to the list? Take what I have so far and either add to it, or make your own list. It'll be sweet!

I'm Finally Back! - and other good news
Posted 17 years agoIf any of you have been wondering where I've been, then yes, I've been gone for a little over a month now from FA 'n stuff. Had to get a bit of fresh air, so to say. Lots of folks I really want to avoid at all costs sort of thing. Sorry for leaving anyone in the dark about what was going on, but I felt it was best to just leave without saying anything. Something some of the Emo furries could learn (you know who you are, lol) is that if you want to leave FA, then LEAVE, don't say anything, just leave and leave silently. It's easier to stay away that way.
Anywho, I need some catching up, it seems like. First off, my apologies to anyone who's been waiting on me for anything. Poetigress, I'll send you my story idea soon, sorry to leave ya hanging like that :3 Had to get away from it all, y'know?
Oh, the good news! right...
For next month (March, lol), it's gonna be Gift/Request Month! Meaning, instead of writing anything for myself, I'm going to write stuff for everyone else :D Okay, okay, so I'm not gonna take every last request, but if you wanna have a gift swing your way (and give me some good ideas for that said gift), then I'll be happy to make that gift become a reality. Just no promises
AND PLEASE, IF I ALREADY OWE YOU SOMETHING, I'LL GET TO THAT, PLEASE, PLEASE DON'T REMIND ME TO DEATH XD
So, in other words, if you'd like something written for you, let me know, I MIGHT write it if I can...keep in mind, I'll put up with most 'normal' fetishes if it comes to that, lol.
Okay, here are the first three for sure:
hypr gets a story as part of a trade
I was thinking of writing something for
Rackun as long as that's okay with him :3
And I was thinking of somethin for
rankhusky
The more ideas you guys give me, the more fun this month will be! :D
Yours truly

Vore meme
Posted 17 years agoVore Meme stolen (kinda) from Canine Writer
1) Introduce yourself
Simmy McSimmypants
2) Okay, we know who you are now, who do you play more often than not?
Myself, getting eaten sometimes (what, it's a strange, guilty pleasure of mine ;3)
3) What interests you about vore/favourite type?
Ending up inside a nice, big, soft belly <3
4) How did you get into vore?
Hehe, funny story. I saw Tolstoy's works of Vore and thought "wow, that's kinda cool." The funny part is, he stopped doing that stuff a while ago and now draws pics of furries pissing their pants. :D
5) What’s you favourite role in an RP/POV pic?
Um, getting eaten by someone fat that I love :3
6) Do you like any fetish besides vore?
Um, of course! Phonebook yiffing.
7) How far do you like your vore to go? Just a swallow to the tummy and containment, digestion, or all the way to the messy end?
Containment...and then promptly followed by some inexplicable escape.
8) Okay, time for fun. Type up your favourite scene.
So say someone fat, like Nocturne the Husky, eats me, but doesn't harm me. He gets fat, and I'm inside, and it's cool. Then i get out and we laugh about it. Silly furs!
9) Last but not least, tag the next person in line.
All you closet-vore fans out there! ;3 The first step to recovery is admitting you have the fetish.

Got tagged
Posted 17 years agoI got tagged by a friend on DA (I know, there's more to life than FurAffinity! D:) and so I'm posting it on here too, hehe.
1 - Post these rules...
2 - Each tagged person must post 8 things about their self on their journal...
3 - At the end, you have to choose and tag 8 friends/people and post their icons on the same journal...
4 - Go to their pages and send a message saying you tagged them...
1. I like getting comments. Simple as that.
2. I really get tired of folks that, when you tell them that you enjoy their works, and most of the time these are writers, they hardly act flattered, and in fact they act as if you're supposed to like them. Instead of saying "thanks, I'm really glad you enjoy my art/stories/etc." they say things more along the lines of "thanks, isn't my stuff just great?" And they mean it. YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE.
3. I find scat/piss/etc. fetishes absolutely horrid.
4. People act different around me, and it's a little agitating sometimes...but those that don't, I luv ya :D
5. I really, really don't care if you don't like what I write/do/whatever, but if you do like it then that's wonderful, and I sincerely appreciate it. (Really!)
6. I actually like school...I especially like becoming good friends with my professors.
7. I haven't been in a fiction-writing mood for a long, long time, but I guess that's my fault, haha.
8. My opinions on memes (like this one) is that haha, it's a good, silly laugh, but don't let them take over your emotions. At the same time, don't make fun of people that like to do them. That's like making fun of someone who enjoys eating candy once in a while.

My man, Heath Ledger...1979-2008
Posted 17 years agoI heard the bad news and now I feel awful. I really liked Heath, he was a classy guy with a lot of talent. My friend and I are already thinking of writing a song about him for our band, it'll take a lot of effort to really do him justice.
He'll always be in my mind, and more importantly, in my heart.
I miss you Heath. Take care now...
