Don't know what to say.  I'm still hurting really bad and feel emotionally stagnant.  Hope you don't go through the same agony

I have a saying: Advice is like Cock. Don't try to give it to someone who doesn't want to take it.

My advice giving days are mostly behind me now...

All I hope for now is to try and get a smile out of people whenever I can.

For you to say what you said in my Cock Out topic, when you say how you are feeling in THIS topic... It makes me glad I made you laugh.

I only wish I could do the same for Yoda every once in a while.

I cannot properly express profound effect you and everyone here have had.  My messing around in the pre-VGP days helped me self-learn web security.  Building this site held my interest in programming through the rough patches and provided motivation to keep going, and the experience there has led to my current successful employment.  The podcast has greatly improved my casual speaking.

But far more than that is that it's a reason to get up in the morning.  To never give up.  And to feel at home nomatter where I am.  I have had a terrible week, and I can't say I've ever felt worse, regardless of whether that's a disproportionate response, but that ends now.  Thank you.  You've done far more than give me a chuckle; you've given me hope.

NUDE PILE ON!

Just don't forget your Cock Out controllers!
