Hey! Again!

Post by grassaquilUV »

Hello! Again! I'm back after a nice hiatus to enjoy Pebble Version, have fun with games, and annoy Saber and everyone else...errr...I mean have fun with everyone!

I've changed much since you've see me last! I'm a pretty big brony, got myself involved in several fandom projects, gotten my self in several parts of the fandom, and also saving up for Pokemon X, can't wait!

I've also started making music, mainly trance. It's ok, yet a lot of work, but it's really fun!

What have you guys been up to?
I thought Snivy was a grass version of Cyndaquil, that's the reason for my nickname, oh yeah check out my Youtube channel, grassaquilUV. (easy to remember, isn't it?)

Hey, nice to see you back! I think the biggest news lately has been Silver and Colly's engagement.

As for me, the past few months have been pretty normal. Just wrapping up winter vacation right now before returning to Florida to teach spring semester.

My signature site. Because ripping off Silver's ideas is fun.

Well, I didn't want to make a big deal of it, but I also got engaged. Either way though, good to have you back!

Well yeah, but my fiance's a member of the forums too~

Anyway. Welcome back, grassaquil. It's a shame you couldn't have come back a couple weeks earlier! You just missed the week of randomness, and it was pretty slow this year.
"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.

Whoa, what?! Congrats to both Silver and Stevenson! :O

Also hi Grassaquil. I just got back, too, due to Silver's apparently-now-annual summons from DeviantArt. xD

Not entirely sure if this is necroposting, since it was over a month since the last pre-KotF post. But putting congratulations in the Saying Hi thread without context felt kinda odd. >_>

Well, it's either gonna be an annual DeviantArt summons, or you've gotta give me some other means of contact. Pick your poison. And say hi to Poison Wing, while you're at it.

And yeah, me and Stevenson are engaged! I won the race 'cause I proposed at Madoka instead of waiting for Christmas like SOME people. And by "some" I mean "a lot". A whole mess of my friends went and got engaged this Christmas. But thank you for the well-wishes.

And this is fine, the forums are generally rather slow so just... post wherever.

I know nobody is reading this, but for posterity's sake...Silver and I are engaged, but not to each other.
