Back... again...?

So I'm sorry for not updating in a while. Maybe it was the fact that my three years of torture- excuse me, middle school finally ended and I was half celebrating, half freaking out about high school. Maybe it's the fact that my blind cat passed away. Maybe it's the fact I was on a five-week vacation with my cousins, came back for a week, and am currently on a two-week vacation. Or maybe it's the fact that I'm jsut a lazy teenager.

But you know whatever.

Let's see if I can explain everything in further detail...

Eighth grade ended almost two months ago, and it was one of the most heartbreaking days of my life. There are twelve high schools in my city, so many friend clusters were being split up. None of my friends are heading to the school I'm going to. I had to watch the most (arguably) popular couple in the school have to say goodbye for the last time, and that was almost enough to make my start bawling like a baby.

And then, I went to a horse camp for kids with... um... "disabilities..." I was worried I'd be lumped in with a bunch of severely affected kids who needed help just functioning, but turns out most of the kids had very mild problems, like ADHD.

Came home from horse camp one day, and found that my mom had decided to put our fifteen-year-old cat down. He'd been declining for a few days, and when she couldn't use his legs at all, she decided enough was enough and took him to the vet. He'd been fighting with hypertension and blindness for a while and at least he didn't have to suffer anymore...

Then we were headed off to Florida with my cousins in tow for a two week long trip to Walt Disney World and Tampa. I've been to Disney World more than enough times (21 times, I kid you not) but seeing them see the parks for the first time together was very fun. One of them was only five years old and was infatuated with princesses and the whatnot, so seeing her face light up when she saw Sleeping Beauty for the first time was priceless.

We were going to head back to our home, but my grandma said one of us could come to her house for two weeks. My thought process went something like two weeks - mother = sign me up. There was a flood in St. Louis, however, and my grandpa, who works on a farm, had to work even more to make sure none of the machinery and plants had been ruined in the water. So the trip was extended to three weeks. Not like I had a problem with that or anything...

And now we're in Dahlonega or however you spell the name of the town in Northern Georgia, heading up to North Carolina for two weeks to see some of my dad's old friends, then my uncle, and finally my old friend who moved away nearly two years ago. Happeh times.

Also, one of my mom's high school friends just won a 22K lottery. Hurrah and all that.

Idiots idiots everywhere

Not from the same member, this time the idioticy is from a too-dumb-to-live, apparent 20-year-old named "Jiggles." This is the most recent of just one more of her epic fails:

Jiggles: https://mail.google.com/mail/?ui=2&ik=a9a04c4ae0&view=att&th=12fd71d986cf3620&attid=0.1&disp=inline&zw

https://mail.google.com/mail/?ui=2&ik=a9a04c4ae0&view=att&th=12fd71dbf5bb2cdd&attid=0.1&disp=inline&zw

Don't bother clicking the links, they're useless...

Me: You realize that those are from your mail account and we can't view it, right?
Mod1: What were you trying to do?
Jiggles: I sent them to my sister's cell phone from my camera phone.
Me: One, that doesn't answer anything, and two, regardless of what you did, we can't see them. You log out of your mail account, then see if you can view them.
Jiggles: I just logged off of igoogle.com and they still show. And please try to stay on topic.

Remember how I'm a moderator on this forum? So she comes along and begins mini-modding me, and I'm not a fan of whatever inferiors I have thinking they're better than me.

Me: Real quick, who is the moderator here? Not you. Please don't mini-mod. And how do you expect us to stay on topic if we don't know what the topic is supposed to be? Your latest entry has us completely confused.
Mod2: I busted out laughing so hard, guys. No really I'm not sure where to even start here. Jiggles, those links don't work for anyone. Anyone. Except you. And then you provided us with absolutely no explanation. Get this through your head. And don't try to reprimand a moderator who is doing her job and doing it well.
Mod1: If you could kindly tell us what is in those links you posted, we will let it go. You're being really vague, and that's something I don't like.
Admin: ...What? xD
That's not how linking pictures works, if that's what you were trying to link. Also, don't mini-mod a moderator. What is this thread for again? *checks* Ah, for what kind of penguin the PoM penguins are. Well, since it's already been answered (they aren't a real breed) this thread really has no point in staying open. Feel free to lock this up when you guys figure out what the heck is going on.
Mod2: I don't want this locked until we get answers...
Mod1: And no one's gonna lock it until Jiggles replies.
Me: Five bucks says she'll never come back to this thread.

Needless to say, she didn't.

Well. Um. Okay.

Thanks to the lovely Mares, I was alerted of the following:
Someone didn't do their research...

But seriously guys, am I really that popular? I've only gotten about 3.5K posts, way less than some of my friends (or otherwise known members, hello Couriervaughn) online, and my blog only has a few followers. I haven't posted on the forum for nearly five months now, and yet I've got a troll willing to pretend to be me.

Wow, I feel special. In an odd, terrified, strangely intriguing way.

I should go tell the buck-toothed donkey and her sheeples about this. THEN VENGEANCE WILL BE HAD! ... you know what nevermind I'm good.

Oh, and Dolphinz2123... Just so you know, I'm brunette, my hair's wavy, and it is not down to my lower back held in place by a headband.
Thank you.

ELVIS HAS LEFT THE BUILDING.

you know if my evil plan goes planningly according to plan.

4.30.2011

um okay then.

I took a look at some of my blog stats, and they're... um... interesting?

What you see are the keywords that people have used to get to my blog. Some of them are kinda obvious, but it gets weirder as the list goes down. "Language you speak..." That's in the little introductory tagline thingamabob ("Whatever language you speak, I'm trying to say hi") but it seems like an awfully weird thing to be directed to- four times. And then there's jarsie9 and ruthless_kk, both of whom I have blogged about but only in one post. We've got 100percentdolphinzz (I admit to making that mistake last night, stupid typos >_<). Closing the thing off is... a bunch of question marks in squares? Huh?

And there are the countries people come from. Most of them are pretty common (US, UK, AU, Canada, etc.) but some are kind of weird. 83 hits from South Korea? 24 people from Luxembourg? Where the heck is Luxembourg?!

TEH FAIL IS OVAR 9000

On one of my other forums last night (you know ones that aren't completely cruddy) this conversation, around 5, this post appeared:

Her: OMG he's being sexy xD Movie Rico is a little hawt xD

Now, this particular person has a track record in fangirling over these particular cartoon penguis and doing some particular things to them, and trust me, you don't want to know. We mods (did I mention I'm a mod on that forum? Well, I am. I feel so proud :D) got on her case, saying "we told u no do dis." And then, in the "What Makes You Mad" forum, she posts this, a thinly-veiled show of her annoyance:

Her: Ugh, I hate it when people get on my back or tell me what to do or what not to do. Or people who don't tell me straight away.

So we kindly but firmly tell her how she's gone wrong (yet again):

Me: We don't want to have to tell you what not to do, but some things you do cross the line. Like, a lot. We have to have some rules in order here, otherwise the place would be crawling with trolls and really icky discussions. And we do try to tell you things as clearly as possible, sometimes we tell you these things many, many times.
Mod1: You'll be told what to do and what not to do all through your life, that's how it goes and how work gets done. Us mods tell everyone what they're allowed to do here, it's to keep this place orderly and neat and clean.

And let's watch the whole unfold:

Her: No sh*t. I just hate it when everyone sorta gets on my back like I've commited a crime.
Mod1: *cough*Breakingtherulesisacrimetechnically*Cough. Sorry, something stuck in my throat.
Her: Blah blah blah. Sure, I'm supoosed to follow rules here, I just never really read them.
Admin: *facepalm* Then read the rules. That post of yours right there just tells me I might as well go ahead and give you a temp-ban. :/
Her: Can we end this? Because I'm really mad now. I'm sure everyone hates me here because I'm such a jerk. D:
Me: Nobody hates you, you just have to follow the rules. You know, this forum is incredibly lenient, on any other forum you'd probably be perma-banned if you keep up your behavior.
Mod3: Oh my god. Okay, ban her. Temp ban her. Do anything. That is a massive amount of stupid right there. You are not exempt from the rules and you dang well better learn that. Insinuating that you're exempt from the rules pretty much DOES make you a jerk, and I'm not even going to argue it. I don't think anyone here HATES you but you DARN WELL are not earning any fans from the way you act. I'm tired of trying to reason with a brat.
Her: And you always get on my back about everything.
*runs away crying because of what [username] has done on the forum*
Me: Alex, can I have "completely missing the point" for 200, please?
Mod1: Alright "Missing the point" For 200. "A whiny, penguin-loving, hormonal girl"
Me: What is "Lady Gaga?"
Mod1: Ooh, that is incorrect. Minus over 9000 points.
Admin: Gave her a temp ban of three days. She needs to learn how to stop overreacting, and learn how to follow/read the rules and learn how to apologize. :/

And that's not even the end of it. A few hours later, this post appears in the rule thread:

New member: Just read the rules. I am going to try and be more careful here now. Please let [username] get unbanned. PLEASE.
Mod3: ITBEGINS.jpg
Mod1: If she read the rules, she would have known that creating multiple accounts is against them.

So yeah. That's the most drama we've had all month, though. She only got a 72-hour temp ban, though.
