Are you implying that any of us here, who played Blockland, would care about the Met Gala?

"Lol that's not loud" ~ Coworker that was in the army, repeated by other coworker who apparently shoots guns without ear protection

I shoot guns quite frequently, and I did work in the firearms industry for quite a while, and let me just tell you straight up that shooting guns without earpro is literally nothing to brag about. I have had some of my coworkers complain to me about how restless they are because of the constant buzzing or ringing they face. It's just they're trying to justify being tactically disadvantaged when it comes to good hearing. It's compensating.

I will say though that when it comes to safety equipment wearing hi-vis clothing at a site that's disconnected from the main road is kinda gay and idk why some of the dudes I've worked with do that.

Noticed that it was pretty inactive today, anyone remember years back when the april fools events happened here? Any fond memories?

For me it was probably when the forum devolved into chaos with everyone able to use others usernames and profile pictures.

I wish I had the strength to say no but it's probably likely 99% of us would say yes.

I'm not sure why I would try to see a therapist, but I understand what you're trying to say. I'm not experienced with drugs outside of Alcohol. I'm not thinking of taking massive amounts of dosages every single day, just a singular try to see what it's like. And I would rather none of these drugs be illegal because that's draconian and authoritarian to dictate on what you should ingest.

I've done it, too much damage for the fun. It's a Self Delete recreational drug and you won't die you just get stuck with zoning out a lot. Smoke a stuff load of weed out of a grav bong with dabs on top instead or take a couple tabs of acid.

DPH = Huffing Gasoline

It's probably the only deliriant* drug I can think of that's legal to buy, I'm not trying to break any local, state, or federal laws.

Off Topic / Re: blockland: the community that killed the game

« on: March 22, 2023, 06:45:41 PM »

I wish I participated in these forums more often while growing up, I actually LARPed a LOT back in the day and pretended to be stuff I wasn't, I grew up in a house where my only real outlet for friends and most social things came from playing online games. It's unfortunate that I had created a character, a fake façade of myself. I have such fond and vivid memories of playing with you guys in Blockland. It's really sad coming back here every few years and seeing people I remember that I was friends with, yet, I never really proceeded to be friends beyond just playing Blockland. I'm doing pretty good now that I'm older, now that I have more autonomy. It's sad to see one of the communities that kept me going through my childhood kind of fade away into obscurity. Love you guys, if you ever want to play again hit me up. A lot of what I had said on these forums about myself, and what I had done in-game, the fake stories I talked about were just ways for me to create my own character, a false representation of myself. Sorry that I lied, God bless you guys.

Also, reflecting on when I joined the community, I had been playing this game since I was 8 years old! I cannot believe I was even allowed computer access at that age.
