Comments for October 13, 2005

These are strange times indeed.

Forgetting for a second about stuff related to school, looking for work, or Craig's List, this website (and I guess me on the internet in general)seems to be pretty wacky lately. First came the result of that weird quiz, which I still say is so wrong (at least on my match) as to be laughable. Yes, I'm really only taking issue with the conservative part, but hey. Then came the comments. My dear sister has what is simultaneously the best and the scariest comment since I added the feature. Granted not all of you may be able to fully appreciate what implying that I need a female version of my brother in law means. To you, I offer this: my brother in law called to APOLOGIZE for my sister and to claim he had nothing to do with it. I believe him. Still, the whole damn thing is amusing.

Then, of course, there was the other response, from someone who refused to identify themselves and left no trace as to who they were. No one who I know has access to this site has a first name starting with "B." Probably nothing too exciting...just bizzare.

This is all well and good, but nothing seems more bizzare than the poll results. Before I go too far into them, I had pretty much made up my mind to go. The people who voted yes are accounted for, and they make up the vast, vast majority of the people I was actually listening to. I made it a commentary thing to see how many responses I got, and the results were quite interesting. Seven people told me not to go. At the very least, some combination of one to seven people voted a total of seven times for "No." There was no proper explaination and I don't know who voted that way. That's fine...all that means is more people than I thought look at this.

If you're new here, welcome. Feel free to poke around all the different parts of the site and provide feedback. I have nothing to hide and the worst I can do is scare you away.

If you're some joker from Penn State (which, given the people who ARE accounted for, would most likely leave Dubbs, Val, and Scott)...very funny guys. You know you want me there.

So many unanswered questions, most of which aren't even addressed here. Life wouldn't be fun without a little mystery, I guess.



Valerie-I swear that it was not me being a jokster in your polls, and I can pretty much guarantee that it wasn't Scott, because he won't even read my LJ unless I FORCE him to , and I'm his girlfriend. So the chances that he regularly reads this site are practically nil. Also keep in mind, he doesn't have the internet in his room.

So, unless it's Dubbs, I think you have an enemy or a stalker. --Andrew-Fair enough...there's still an outside chance it's legit, as there are a few people who would do that that have yet to be accounted for.

Anyway, the bigger point was to see if there was a legit reason not to go, and since everyone from PSU seems to be on the same page it's not that big of a deal.

I can't imagine inspiring enough of a reaction in anyone to have either an enemy or a stalker. I just don't think these are likely options. Someone's trying to be funny.
