Welcome to The SoapBox!! This is the freedom of speech page.. or the "SoapBox" welcome!.. obviously you dropped by because you figured... hey, I need to see how messed up this person is... well here we go... Tuesday is the last day the fundraising ends for this set of choices... however the next set will come with the update to the comic on thursday... I realise this maybe wasn't the best idea to help me finance a trip, but it was worth a shot, who knows, maybe the comic will catch on... I just hope it doesn't turn into something everyone really hates and is too damn polite to tell me so... Being polite... why is it so important?... I'd rather have someone tell me straight than be polite and basically lie to my face... it's one of my own problems at times... I realise that people get my AIM name and decide to talk to me as if I were a long time acquaintance... meanwhile I don't even know who the hell this person is... let alone really want to talk to them... I don't know what to say... let alone to be used as if a pawn in the scheme of an overall conspiracy... I've said this in an earlier rant... but unless you have a purpose to talk to me.. don't ... unless I actually talk to you on a daily basis, in which case, say hi.. I don't mind all that much.. but for the rest of you slack jawed morons wanting to shoot the shit without a bowel movement in sight... I can't keep a conversation alive... at all!... so don't count on me to want to gab... I'm not good at it, never will be... which is why I find it odd when I do talk to the people I talk to... curious... Regardless... I don't use the phone, I don't have a cellphone and when I talk to people, it's usually in some form of a rant... if you can learn to accept these things... the better for you.. cause I don't find myself changing all too much anytime soon... That's all this week... I guess I should sum it up with a final thought, but who really gives a damn anyway... see ya next week... OMGTKB (Ben) Y'know what? Come back next week to see if I really give a damn...
