Actually, yes. That's kind of scary. You really can say you "know Wisconsin like the back of my hand".

Hey! Neato - I'm now a perkygoth! Not that anyone checks back in the intro threads, but since this was quite unimportant I thought I'd just drop myself a line and mention it to me. Indeed, I think as I progress I must change the avatar in true Tamagothi fashion to reflect my current standing. Brilliant!

Damn, dude, you're hardcore:D
How about posting your pictures from "then" to "now"?

Oh dear.... you mean.... the 'real' ones?? :O Well, I posted an old picture of me from 1998, the freshman year of college, in the Pictures thread. Let's see, I would have been calling myself goth for about a year or two at that point, but the picture quality is pretty grainy, and looking at it now.... just where in the hell *did* I get those glasses?! Wow.

I'll have to see if I can rustle up any others! Haha, ah yes, the pretentions of youth....

Will that be one lump or two, dear?


*hides bat*

Oh, I was talking about the tamagotchi avatar

Righto - I guess I'll just have to wait and see what the next step is after this Perky thing wears off. In the meantime, I'll have to show the progression.... I'll try to edit them into this thread, if I don't get back in time I'll just make a new post here. It's my thread, gawdammit, and I'll manipulate it however I wanna!

Actually, Mopeygoth seemed to have already come and gone - it was babybat for about 10 posts, then mopey to 49, then from 50 and on it's been perky. I think, from looking at some of the newer posters, that Goth as Fuck occurs around 100 or 120 or something, which seems early, but when we've such vaunted heights as 'Peter Murphy' to get to, I guess Goth as Fuck just isn't all that, now, is it? :P

Okay!

Onward and upward...

Boy, they grow up so fast..

Where oh where does the time go?

*sniffle*

I want to see your tamagotchi resemble my avatar when you become Siouxie Sioux :D

Siouxsie?! When is that?? I've just now set up the perfect one too, hahaha, can't wait!

I didn't even know there was a Siouxie?

Of course I didn't know about the Peter Murphy title until Xng hit it, so I suppose it's possible.

Alack! and the crushed heart falls to the floor... I guess we all need our Will O' the Wisps to chase, don't we?

Sobeh, I missed this earlier, but I've seen and enjoyed your posts elsewhere tremendously. You're a bright addition to this particular constellation. Hail and well met! :)

:-*

Thankee-sai!

I think it's *awesome* that your avatar is the little Tamagothy thinger. I used to play that for hours in college...

And you sound awesome (even though I don't agree with the movie, but that's just my own opinion and not something that I feel I need to make people agree with - I love lots of movies that other people don't)!

Welcome!

Okay, after something of a mini-hiatus due to finals, I'm proud to say I'm coming out of grad school with a 3.81 GPA. All that remains is a three-month intensive French language reading course, and to finish my thesis! Then it's.... oh yeah, unemployment until I can defer my loans yet again for the Ph.D. in '07.

Ah yes. Can't quite seem to find a tamagothi to mark the occasion, and I was disappointed recently to learn that I can't update my goth.code because the damn thing was eradicated from the 'net... c'est la vie, I suppose.

Okay then!
