I used to hate people who went on and on about their lives in LiveJournal. Sex this ... party that ... it was all so repetative. I wondered, to no avail, why anyone would waste so much time reading and writing about life instead of just going out and living it. The answer hit me recently in the form of an old Plato quotation.

Great post, Steven Thank you! anonymous June 30 2005, 09:59:06 UTC
In all honesty, that was one of the most interesting posts I have read in a long time. I agree that we all have a lot to learn from you, and I, for one, will check back regularly to see what new and exciting stories you have posted in your LiveJournal.

I know I speak on behalf of the entire human race when I convey to you my sheer gratitude and sincere appreciation for all you have done for mankind.

Thank you ... for everything.

I'm sure the effect your exciting entries will have on society will be tremendous.
I especially like your condescending attitude towards women. Gives it a nice little touch.

wait, i dont get it. so ur gonna tell us some stupid ass stories and thats supposed to make our lives more interested? thats the stupidest shit i ever heard. wouldnt it make more sense if you gave us some pointers and tips and tell us more about the stuff YOU do? plus most people learn by example not inspiration and self discovery so ur plan is shit. you should start posting what ur GONNA do not what you DID do, and that way people can go there and do it with you. btw if u werent so right, id slap you really hard for being such a pretentious egotistical jerk.

That's not such a bad idea. Maybe I should start posting my itenerary a few days in advance so that people can come watch the festivities. Brilliant idea, Bethany.
