Well, I got 56K'd one night [tonight in fact {whoda thunk}] because that's what my modem does when it recieves a phone call.
I picked up the phone in my room and the I heard a voice that I haven't heard in quite a long time.
The sound of Kary's voice in tears.
Naturally, I asked what was up. She made a teary reply, then told the details to me, with a number of breaks in between sentences.
Apparently, Kary's father, Kieth, had died of a heartattack tonight.
The main supposed cause was overeating. Kieth ate lots on holidays, and tonight, when he was 49, it caught up to him.
Now, I'm saddened, naturally. Kieth was a great guy, real nice and he new how to raise daughters good. [not make them spoiled, yet happy also, that sorta stuff] and he knew that I wasn't the kind of friend that wanted to have Kary as a friend just because she was hot, and Kieth knew I wouldn't be doing anything of that sorts to Kary. He was a father who trusted his daughters friends, and it proved him well. He knew who could be trusted and who couldn't be.
Well, now that he's gone, Kary has had a last name change. It used to be Murphy, but now it's her mother's maiden name now, that of Albers.
So, I know that I haven't ever referenced Kieth before, but just know that he was a great man that pased away far before he should have.
I ask nothing of you, other than to post any things on your mind, things that may comfort Kary. She will need the support. She loved her father dearly, and is very distraught about this all.....
-
:( .......... sorry, man.
-
How do so many people you know die?
My condolences to Kary, and alll affected. I like the dark meat myself, I should be careful.
*shifty eyes*

Sophih: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:
-
Oh no... I'm so sorry. That can't be easy
I send my love, and prayers.
-
Wow... I don't know what to say... I'm so very sorry, Kary...
-
My dad died when I was young and I never got to know him, so I can relate. =/
-
Heh.... I always love smoked ham....
And I don't know why people around me die a lot.... Maybe I'm just some cursed person who can't keep anyone I love for very long. I don't know....
Thank you, people of TPH. These words mean a lot to me and will to Kary, when she reads them.

Swift, I used to have the same feeling too.
You see, when I was 9, there was this girl I loved, and we were great friends.
Then one day, we got into a fight because she thought I was a freak who was stalkering her and stuff, so at that moment I told her that I never wanted to speak to her agian.
Tradgety struck, 3 days later she died. Her mom killed her in a car accident my unbuckling her seatbelt while driving and she went hear first through the window, which cracked open her skull and snapped her neck. She died instantly.
I later attented the funreal and was kicked out because apprently I was the antagonist of the whole situation, and people wren't too happy with me.
I met another girl name Amanda Steiner, I told her everything and she conforted me. She told me that she loved me and that I'm a wonderful person with a stressful hectic life.
Although she got upset with me too, and told me I was an asshole and some shit like that.
At the point, I got upset with myself and stayed home from school. I statred swalling pills, stabing myself and cut my wrists. I pulled myself through and decided to move on, because if a friend was gonna treat me like shit and lie to me, than she was never myfriend in the first place.
I tought myself a valuable lesson, life is short. Weither it's tragically short or we reach our life exptancy, life is so goddamned short. We have so many freedoms, so many reasons to be happy. The people that are arround us won't last forever and we'll just have to expect that. But they wouldn't want thier loss to be in vain. Death is a complicated subject, we don't understand a lot of it. People die, and people are born. It happens everyday.But life continues, for new born or oldborn. The future can be unclear at times, but if we make the most out of it, we can die knowing we did great in the world.

*sighs* here comes another sign of the apocalypse...
Thank you for your kindness, Yamino. I wasn't expecting you to write that, but it should at least convince Kary to not do what you were doing at one point....
And I must say, I haven't felt the same pain as you have.
Everytime someone I knew or loved died, I was never thought of as a bad person. I was always known to thoroughly love the people that died, and they know that I was suffering greatly for their loss.
But never was I ousted and shunned and hated from those occasions...
My feelings go out to you, Yamino, for feeling worse things than me. I had not known that before hand.
Thank you again.
-
Well Swift, if you really are cursed, then at least I don't have anything to worry about.
Yeah, that was bad...
*ahem*
*looks around*
Anyway.....
That is really unfortunate, Kary, you have my sympathies.
-
Well said, Yamino.
-
I swear, I can never relate to anyone's problems. I feel like such an asshole all the time. I'm an emotionless bastard. Don't reply to this.
-
It's okay, Peaches. You've led a good life, free of strife, and you can hardly be blamed for that. You're not emotionless, and you certaintly aren't a bastard. You don't have anything to say, and you're not the first.
But I'm off to Kary's house, via quad, to help her out a bit. I may post the results, if it goes off well or anything interesting happens.....
-
free of strife
What have I told you about the BS? Seriously.
But I hope things work out... Did Broom go home, yet?
-
......When I first heard about the news...I didn't know what to say...I thought even just saying I'm sorry to hear, to say I wish it wouldn't have happened, those wouldn't have made a difference....I was told otherwise, so for now I'll say what I thought didn't matter the first time.
I don't like hearing these things...partly because It makes me sad, and partly because I don't want whoever it affects to be sad either.
I'm sorry to hear this news...I really am...But I can't be sorry forever. So instead I'm gonna choose to try and do something more preductive...
That's why, I'm here to say....(Note: 56'k warning)

Having said that...I have a few more things to say, because I can't help but comment on them.
Swift ain't cursed, cause if he was I'd be dead by now. And you can bet your sorry ass I ain't gonna die, not yet.
What have I told you about the BS? Seriously.
Agreed.
Now then. I must be off...to...do stuff....or something....
Later.

Wait...... who's the guest? I don't get it. I realize that that animated gif is from the movie "Tail Chasers" by Andrew Dickman, but I don't think he would come around here......

Maybe if you look closely at the picture, you will find the "right" answer.

*smacks anyone who doesn't get it*
For the love of Pete, its....eh, I'm not gonna say it. Isn't obviouse? Lets see, do we know anyone who's name is synonomous with wanderer? Hmmm, I dunno.
-
I hate riddles.
Can I just get goddamned answer plz?
-
I don't think he'd like it though. Otherwise he would have given his name out directly.
-
No...I just forgot to log in...>_>
It'S ME you retards! Drifter! Or Trigger! Whichever you prefer!
Geeze...
-
YAY DRIFTER.
-
For god sakes I haven't even been here as long as the rest of you and I know who it is XD
-
Criminy, It's Drifter! I suppose if you only knew him as Trigger it would've been hard.....
And very nice drawings, Drif. Kary really liked them. [as a note, Kary uses a longer 2x4, a little longer than her arm. Just.... FYI]
Kary and Iris both really enjoyed that, thank you so much for making it, Drifter.
free of strife
What have I told you about the BS? Seriously.
But I hope things work out... Did Broom go home, yet?
Oops, I meant to add a relatively to the start of that. That night I wasn't all together. [I wonder why...] But I was just trying write something neat sounding, and apparently I failed.
And yes, Broom went back home on Sunday. Otherwise I probably needn't have gone to Kary's....
Anyways... I said I would post what would happen at Kary's, and so I will.
She was far too sad and distraught to go to school today, on Tuesday, Iris and Kerrigan too. [Kerrigan is what we call Kary's twin sister {T3H SECREDZ OUT}]
And, well, Kary didn't want to be left alone, so I spent the night at her place. I took the role of Broom in his absense, and Kary just didn't want to let go. So, she just.... clang there, and her, Iris and I fell asleep on her couch for the night. Kerrigan never was one to join our group ever [something about hating video games] so she wasn't wanting any sympathy of mine. [though I did offer it and all...] Iris fell asleep on my left arm, so now it's sore... heh.
Well, all through Tuesday, all me, Kary and Iris did was mainly sit and talk, recalling fond memories. This helped to calm the two of them down, so niether me, Iris or Kary went to school today. [Nor did Kerrigan, but she was just shut up in her room mainly] {Kary's mom called the school and sorted it all out, though}] I wish I had the lappy there.... Or brought my comp to Kary's. Kary always is calmed down greatly when she kills many people in Unreal Tournament.
And, well, Kary and Iris are here at my place now, but niether of them really want to talk [or type, for that matter]
-
Twin........... sister? o_O

ZOMG!!!

How many more sister's does Kary have? >_>
-
I'm sure Kary would XD at that if she weren't watching Whose Line [apparently Whose Line is funnnier than TPH..... Heh. and me.]
And it's just Kary, Kerrigan and Iris for Kary's siblings. Her mom, however.... *MEGASHOT*
Don't do one of her.... heh [please]
-
Don't do one of her.... heh [please]
Too late. :D *killed*

Whose Line is funnier than everything.

Whose Line is funnier than everything.

Quoted x3 for truth.

Classy.
-
Well.... Ain't this spiffy.
I got 56K'd [again] when Kary phoned me again.
After the Hospital examined Kieth to find a more definite cause of his death, they found a malignant tumour in his brain. As it happens, it was growing on the part of the brain that controls automatic bodily functions, for example, the heart.
Yeah....... His funeral is going to be this Saturday.
Just thought I'd.... let you all know this new piece of news.
