I ate my profile. It was quite delicious actually, though I wretched shortly afterwards. I also fed a few of my stories to the delete option in the Stories tab on my account. The original copies are still in my possession, so if you are completely brainwashed and want them that badlly, e-mail me and I'll send 'em over; but I swear to God, if you give me crap like "NoooOOEs! yOu CAn'Tz delETed them! B ring tehm'sb ack! NOW NOW NOW NOWNOWNOW NOWNO W!!" your name is hitting my block list faster than gravity could ever hope to bring something back to ground-level on this Earth... Okay? ...Swell.

NOTE: After 2009, I will no longer offer up the copies of my old stories. Because despite my best intentions, I still get those e-mails where it is apparently unacceptable to use proper spelling, grammar and syntax and honestly folks? I have had ENOUGH. They are a waste of space on my computer hardboard and I need that space for other things. They will still be in my possession, but on a different source. Thank you for your attention.

"Seal off your imagination and 'relinquish' your soul!"
(true slogan of FF(dot)net)
...hey! We "are" mimicking other people's works with crappy ideas, such as
messing with their respected characters, creating fan-made pairings and
unleashing slash and mpreg on every other fiction posted on this hell-hole.
It's just in the cards! (smiles)

Lyrics of the Update
(NOTE: It's partially translated, and partly not... because I don't want to get banned)

Subarashi chin-chin mono
Kintama no te aru
Sono no Ota wa surubobo
Iie-- Ninja gai-imasuu~!
Hey, hey, lets go! Kick-ass-suru
Taisetsu na mono: protect my balls
Boku ga aru, so let's fighting
Let's fighting love...
Let's fighting love...

This Song is a little stupid.
It doesn't make any sense.
The English is completely f(censored)cked up,
But that's ok, we do it all the ti~me!
Hey hey lets go! Kick-ass-suru
Taisetsu na mono: protect my balls.
Boku ga aru, so let's fighting
Let's fighting love...
Let's fighting love...

-South Park (Good Times with Weapons)

"Mel Gibson was right, Kyle. Right now, the Jew in you is screaming; "No! Those cost money! Get your money back!" You know this to be true!"
(sweating uncontrollably while his hands that are holding the nunchakus are trembling)
"Go ahead. Prove Mel Gibson wrong, Kyle."

(comforts him) It's alright Kyle. We'll go to the fair and return them.
