    Well I just finished clearing up all the April Fools pranks, so perhaps now you peeps may start to see the true side to this.

    Toodles Lex. Nice knowing you and all that jazz.

    I still don't believe it, my intuition and intellect tell me this is going to be one of those long lasting long April Fools jokes that won't be admitted until tomorrow, saturday or sunday.

    I dont believe it either.... nice try though, but the whole pledging with Rent ( LOVE rent :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: ) and the ec coat hanger thing just made me laugh my ass off. LMFAO. Also the staff members arguing and (sorry to offend) but somebody who is not twelve liking Justin beiber D: I call April fools on this one.

    I hate to see go Lex. You gave me great advice when I first joined EC. It may not mean much, you help me through those first few steps of coming out.

    Godspeed man, Godspeed.

    ----------

    is this an April fools joke?

    ----------

    upon further examination I see it is, damn u playing with my heart strings!

    bye lex, everyone has breakdowns sometimes, and if it's an April fools joke, then interesting bit to use.

    Is it really that tough to believe that some people like cute over muscled?

    I'm back - what'd I miss?
















































    ....oh. :slight_smile:

    Yes, it was just another April Fool's Day gag. In Mod Tower a couple days ago, while discussing possible AFD's shenanigans, someone fronted the idea of having a staff member go on a lengthy rant. I volunteered to be that staff member. :slight_smile:

    I gave it a bit of thought. I decided to play it as straight as possible at the outset, and then make my grievances weirder and more outlandish as it went along. The weird thing is how quickly it took - I must have pounded that thing out in about fifteen minutes. I think finding the three music videos and embedding the links took almost as long. :slight_smile: I posted it in mod tower and asked for feedback. I assumed they'd all have suggestions and critique, but they all said they loved it, and to post it just as it was.

    I actually assumed everybody was going to either laugh or roll their eyes. I'm surprised that anybody even bothered considering that it might be real. But it was fun having the staff egg me on. And, as a bonus, I stopped posting for a day, and got a lot of work done. :grin:

    Sorry if I confused, weirded out, or dismayed anybody. As penance, I've posted a really embarrassing picture of myself. And yes, that's a valid link - you won't be RickRolled. :slight_smile:

    Lex

    I can't believe anyone even considered that was real.

    And, for the record, I can say quite honestly that I didn't even know who Justin Beiber was until a few weeks ago, have never listened to his songs, and would probably not even recognize him if he walked right up to me and introduced himself.

    LOL, in Lex's "make-up" pic it looks like he's saluting Hitler XD
    P.S. I knew it was fake all along (I can't believe some of you took him seriously) >.>
    P.S.S. Is it bad that I've never even heard of Rent? :O
    P.S.S.S. I didn't know who Justin Bieber was until three days ago :OOO
