I’ll never look at you the same way again Robbie.

I would advise you take the blue pill immediately, then.

What are we repelling anywya? I see no Zubats here.

I'm actually a little surprised a newer user would have someone like Mary on their post radar.

I'm sorry to hear you had such a troubling dream. That being said, I am inclined to ask the following question with complete seriousness:

How old are you really?

The reason I ask this is because in the context of your posts, you come across as being relatively younger than some other members here, and in a period of life many of us have already lived through.As one of those members who has done just that (partly through Acmlmboards, no less) I can say with absolutely certainty that the following two things are true:

1) Learning to forgive yourself is important. We will continue to make mistakes, learn from them, and grow, especially when we're younger. It's just a part of the human experience. I tend to be my own harshest critic, and I need to remind myself all the time that beating myself up does nothing. Learning from the experience, however, is the best thing you can do.

2) Getting older may be scary, but it's not always bad. Sure, there's definitely a lot of uncertainty and even regrets that come with the passage of time, but there's also more opportunities to improve, grow, and achieve dreams. It wasn't long ago I turned 30 and had a similar experience of lamenting my more youthful years, until I stopped and reflected. While I do regret my past foolish behaviors, I also saw how much I grew, and realized I was honestly the happiest I've ever been in my life.

While the future may be uncertain, as long as we live and breathe, each day brings an opportunity for something new. You're not living something anyone else hasn't, and if we made it out the other side, I'm certain you can as well.

P.S. Robbie I am 19 yrs old.

Yeah, that sounds about right. I remember having a similar feeling around that time, but it didn't last for me either.

Besides, consider this: One day soon, there will be people on Kafuka who have literally been posting on Acmlmboards before you were even born.

Think about that.

Generation 3 is out on Pokemon Go, complete with weather effects. I caught a Torchic in the middle of New York City during a snowstorm. Figure that out.

I also caught a Magnemite at the Nintendo store. That was pretty neat too.

Granted, but they also hate Ariana Grande and Halsey as well.

I wish Oreo and Hydrox would get along.

MINA from the Dracula books is a dull character.

Not a fan of using names, though.

The above user seems to break the laws of physics.

Banned for never reading reading the complete works of Jean-Paul Sartre.

It's almost perfect, it only needs 200% more airhorns.

I have a duck.

^ I think I'm a little too old for that.
< I do miss kids trick-or-treating, though.
v Has an idea as to why they don't do that as much any more.

I never knew Taryn personally. I only caught a glimpse of her back in my lurking days.
I read plenty of her posts by now, but it's absolutely nothing compared to knowing her. especially from outside the board.

---

And I think that's the idea. It seems to me that all the people who really knew her well have already grieved, or have already said their peace here and are continuing the process offline.

I personally didn't know Taryn well; we just didn't cross paths very often when Acmlmboards were in their prime. But I do know what it's like to lose a longtime AB friend. I still miss my friend all the time, but I also find myself using such an experience (and threads like these) to remind myself (albeit in an odd way) that our lives matter and that everything counts, even our time on a message board.

I don't need mana.

I am a MAN!

Have you seen Stranger Things yet?
