*sigh* thankee, luvs. and, eh, i didn't mean to take over the thread or anything. just...you know. needed to get shit off my chest. and i can't really...talk to people "irl" about it. especially when i'm not entirely sure he's gone. people want to know what hospital he was at (none at all, probably, given that he hates them and they wouldn't have been able to do much anyway), why can't i get out to see him, stupid shit about how my family is holding up or why can't i find out from someone if he's dead yet. he's not blood-related and his associates hate me, so i wouldn't expect any of them to let me know unless they just wanted to watch me fall apart. it's fucking awkward, and it's hard to keep calm in person. so you lovely folks get to bear the brunt of all this.

i've been thinking a lot about him today. he watched me grow up, or at least he was there for the important bits. my birthday is on tuesday, and i'm not sure how i feel about not being able to discuss aging and christmas and year's end rituals and family relations and...

i dunno. life kind of sucks. but i appreciate the sympathies, i really do. heh. i'll try not to clutter the thread much more with my babbling. this place is for gif wars and mock battles, not sad panda-ing.


We can't be him, but we can be the people you can come and talk to whenever you feel like it.


Damn right. You can sad-panda anytime you like, Raven, we're happy to listen.

Good call...poor thing. Sleep generally helps. And yeah, sad panda any time you like. This group of people is...surprisingly friendly, for people who were brought together over a Youtube series of all things.

Raven I lost someone close a good while ago. I won't say I know your situation so I can only offer my ear when you need me and large amounts of hugs.

In an effort to keep the main thread from going completely off-topic (probably way too late for that, but at least I tried, right?):

A couple of my co-workers were talking about how there's some pottery place nearby where you can buy mugs or plates and things, and then paint them and have them glazed and whatever. And my first thought was "Oh, man, I could make a really cool Slenderman mug! Paint the (X) symbol on it, maybe some creepy trees..."

Yeah. This thing has eaten my life, seriously.

Heh. I would, but I have no artistic ability whatsoever. It would end up looking more silly than cool.

I'd love to get a mug or shirt or something with this image on it: http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?mode=attach&id=23342&thumb=1

zbeelbrox posted it in the t-shirt ideas thread a while back. Coolest mug and/or shirt idea EVER.

In the interest of not clogging up the main thread with my of crap, I present this (not at all) chilling tale:

It was a dark and stormy night. (No, it actually was dark and stormy.) I was walking back from my microecon review session when I noticed that I had gotten a voicemail. I stopped under the only streetlight on the block to listen to it, thinking it might be from my friend who was supposed to give me a ride home that night.

The first few seconds of the voicemail were completely silent. I thought it might have just been someone who had failed the wrong number and waited too long to hang up until I began to hear this soft ticking noise. It sounded like a metronome, or that heartbeat sound from that entry of Marble Hornets. Just this constant Tik Tik Tik...

Gradually, I began to hear other noises in the background. There were bursts of static, with muted conversation between what sounded like two male voices and a female of indeterminate age. The timing of the static bursts made it seem like some kind of morse code, so my first thought was "is this for emh? But I never gave out my phone number..."

I waited for the message to end so I could find out who sent it, but it went on for another two minutes. I was about to just give up and autodelete it until there was this really loud burst of audio distortion. At the exact moment, the streetlight above me went out.

I checked the number afterwards and it was from an unregistered number. When I tried to play it back, I heard nothing but three minutes of silence.

Then today, I got a text from my friend apologizing for accidentally dialing my phone and leaving a long ass voicemail while she was in her car trying to fix her radio.

I guess what I'm saying is: hi I'm SkyLarkin and I'm now officially too invested in this arg.

Also, it is damn hard to type on an itouch.

O.O Holy crap. I would have ran home and hid under the blankets all night.

I did have one kinda creepy thing happen recently... On my computer, I had an EMH folder for all my notes and TRIAL applications and fic and whatnot. Not long after my e-mail exchange with Jeff about the hidden videos, I went out for the afternoon/evening. I come home and find the Damsel video. I am excited, and want to add to my notes. I open up the folder and everything inside is corrupted. There are random new folders and documents with names consisting of random strings of letters/numbers/symbols that I can't open. Since most of the important stuff was already online, I just write it off as a lost cause and try to delete it. I get an error message. It took my 30 minutes of googling and some weird command line entries to get it deleted.

I spent the entire night half-convinced that HABIT was pissed at me for blowing his cover and had come into my apartment and hacked my computer.

But HABIT's not good with technology so he couldn't have hacked your computer. He's not the one who effects technology anyway.

Now slenderman on the other hand...

Tbh, I think I was (and still am) more terrified about my final than anything Slender-related.

Oh! The mug/plate idea I totally almost did that. Except mine was just going to have a forest and slendy I never fully got around to it because I was always doing other things. I will eventually though. Because I really want a creepy mug.

Man nothing weird happens with my stuff, well except right after I posted my trial video. But that happened to the video itself so I don't quite count it. Unless my t.v. going off into static at 2 a.m. for no reason and waking me up counts.

FUN FACT: If we split the EMH main topics (Main topic, Off Topic, Tournament, News) from this forum, there would be about 13820 posts on this board.

The EMH main topic has, at this point in time, 16221 posts.
