I've been on this here website off and on since late 2002 and have never been particularly active. One can tell by the distinct lack of friends, comments, and testimonials. So to whom am I writing this? I think I'm writing it to anyone who may happen across my profile in a fit of indiscriminate clicking and wonder "hey, what's this dude's deal? No comments, no friends, and he's been here forever. He must be some sort of crazy person, or merely a perv, content to ogle the many women of this site and not participate in the community's discourse. What an asshole."
I'm not an asshole. I'm just shy. I have posted on a message board or two in my life as a near shut-in (I'm being dramatic, I go outside, except when it's hot, or cold, or rainy, or Tuesday) and they tend to be much less cordial than the boards and groups on SG. In posting on those boards, I have developed an ugly habit of being pissy/judgemental/prone to snap retorts and shock for shock's sake. This community is far more delicate and for fear of alienating myself, I've mostly avoided talking/commenting/etc and in effect alienating myself. Motherfuckin' catch-22 in this motherfucker.
My point, should anyone see this, is that I'm not mental or anything so don't be afraid. That's my job!
