Title: i blame the black people
Post by: r on February 07, 2008, 11:45:21 pm: Hello dear friends of GW,

Last week my aunt had a stroke and bled into her brain and was found
a few hours after it happened by one of her sons. She has been in a comatose
state for days until finally on tuesday she passed away in the hospital.

I never knew my aunt, and cared little (I have bad relations with my family)
but my mom made me go to her funeral today, and I went out of respect for her sister.
(also due to the fact that my mom told me she'd throw me out of the house if I didn't
go but she says that a lot when ever she wants me to do stuff)

There were a lot of people, my aunt was very loved within the family and everyone
had something to say. During one of the speeches I dozed off and fell off my chair
(I had been up for 30+ hours working on a project) and my mom COMPLETELY freaked out
shouting things about disrespect and bursting into tears and screaming like mad,
then she jumped into her car and went home, leaving me stuck in the middle of
nowhere.

Eventually I found my way to a train station and headed home, only to find that the door
had been locked from the inside. I rang the bell, knocked on the door but nobody answered.
After about an hour of shouting out and throwing small rocks at the bedroom window I decided
to just go to a friend's house and try to phone home. After the phone rang for a while my mom
picked up and told me (while crying) that she doesn't want me in her house any more and really
doesn't want to see me anytime soon. I got thrown out of the house.

So here I am, at a friend's place breaking into a very weak wifi signal with nothing on me except
clothes and 10 euros, and two fines for traveling by train without a ticket twice. I don't know
where to go from here but I will have to figure something out. I always knew something like this
would happen someday. I'm 21 still living with my parents arguing about everything everyday all
day, but I really did not expect this to happen now and in this way. Anyway I don't think this
will have a happy ending, I've never seen my mom like this before. My plans are to get a fulltime
job and live in a small apartment for the time being (at least until i can finish education and
get a proper job). My website http://www.videonext.nl will remain up and I hope to score some
decent $$$ out of it eventually

Obviously, being active on GW or the internet is not one of my priorities at the moment, I might
or might not come back someday or drop by sometime but don't expect to see me being active.

I will be checking my e-mail as often as I can, if you want to send me a message, my e-mail address
is: [email protected]

Some messages to the people I talked to most often on irc/msn/what ever:

Chef: i remember the first thing you said to me was 'i am completely naked' on irc you noticed me
this message repeatedly. good luck with your game man it's really hitting big and getting attention
on all the big gamesites and some people even made in-depth walkthroughs!! i look forward to seeing
you talk on the news about the sewers and i will play your future games when ever i have time.
whenever there's a new version of your game out i will absolutely host it for you just email
the link to me and i will get it uploaded

Mike: good luck with your job at rolled and your carreer in WEB DEVELOPMENTS if you ever care to
discuss recent developments in the web/tech world you could send me an email!

ATARI: get vocal coaching. seriously you're an awesome singer. also get a proper bass your current
bass sounds like it's a soundfont

dragonx: GET LAID!!!!!!!!!!!! on a more serious note GET LAID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and get a proper
pc that can play house

ramirez: thanks for the incredible help with programming over the past couple of years!

Sarah: good luck with being a dad i expect you to teach your child well and teach it to hate bl*cks,
chinks, jews and other minorities.

Sarevok: check your pm and the tf2 server will remain up and maintained by a friend of mine when ever
it needs updates.

Drule, Krinsdeath: practice makes perfect, i hope you get better at guitar!!!

lordtyphoon: eat many croisants, child

vesper: you're a creep

lars: don't overdose on drugs but you're responsible so i doubt you will; be careful though

Moriason: good luck with your job/music/education/what ever your plan for the future is!!

omeg: call me when you have something going on/interesting project that needs taken care of/chess
battle, you have my number!!

If I forgot anyone, you know who you are!!!

I might drop by on irc once in a while but right now my goal is to get a stable living situation, to
be able to live my life without getting huge debts and the internet/gw does not fit in my plan at the
moment. Keep sending me emails though, I will reply when I have the time!

I guess this is goodbye then, or maybe not.
