Hi! According to my dad, who is a specialist when it comes to treating people with extreme alergies, it is in fact possible to be alergic to the sun.

I'm pretty sure you can be allergic to anything except O2 (and if there ever was a case of that...)

As you can tell, I'm back. Other than a time warp, wha'd I miss?

There was an episode on House about that. It's not the sun that causes the allergic reactions, it's light in general. It causes the blood under the exposed skin to die. When the dead cells get to the spleen(or is it the liver?), they're destroyed and release a toxin into the bloodstream. I don't remember the exact details, but you need special windows and lightbulb coverings to prevent it.

Hi! Look at it this way Poik, if you did miss anything other than the time warp and Stevenson's return, it's all gone now so you didn't really miss it.

Heso! That's right... the Special K is gone... we reached 100,000 posts during the three and a half months that was warped. 100k posts.

"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.

Hola.

We just had a big ol' thunderstorm.
'Twas very exciting.
It also meant my softball game was cancelled, which was okay because it was 40 minutes away and I really didn't feel like traveling that far.

It was lonely... you promised you'd write to me, but you never did... the months passed by, and I still thought of you every day, but you never called. I never got any letters from you.

So eventually, I started to lose faith... I thought you had been killed in that terrible, terrible war. Or maybe that you had forgotten about me. It's been so long, you probably found another girl over there... I never stopped loving you, but I didn't think you cared about me anymore, so welcoming you back just would have been too painful for me... I'm sorry. I'm glad you've come back home *sniff*

Man…that’s just mean…how do you tell a kid “Sorry, you can’t go outside. The sun hates you”

It’s amazing what some people are allergic to. I myself suffer rather bad hay fever. I’m allergic to GRASS spores, which are EVERYWHERE.

I don't have any allergies that I know of (I'm probably allergic to poison Ivy though, but I've never run into some).
My friend, though, is allergic to almost all of the fruits. The only one I know he's not allergic to is pears.
He's allergic to tomatoes, meaning he can't have sauce on his pizza, and that he can't have catchup. He's allergic to raw eggs, so no cake batter for him.
I feel really sorry for him.
May the Triforce be with you.

Hi! Anyone know what the Easter colors are? I'm working on a holiday project.

And I need some alternative colors for St. Patrick's day besides Green.

...Thank you, The N00b (Twice in one page! This is GOING to be an Internet Meme! TO 4CHAN!)

And terra, anything pastel is an 'Easter Color'. Particularly yellow, pink, and purple. For St. Patrick's Day, you could probably get away with green, orange, and white, as those are the colors on Ireland's flag.

Oi.
Yeah, I've been spending a lot less time on here. I was here about up to the Time Warp though. Just not often.
I promised I'd try to program some php for the forum this summer, but my friend has me making AI for a game he making so I might not get a chance. Sorry Josiah, I'll get around to it as soon as I get some time. It wouldn't be so bad if my friend didn't decide that he wanted the AI to learn from its mistakes.
Oh, and tradition suggests Catholics wear Green and Protestants wear Orange (but I get pinched anyway). White was supposed to count too...
