» The nicest thing someone's ever done for me

Was skiing one day ~
I love skiing. It's the activity that I love more than any other. I feel like a different person on the slopes - Athletic, stylish.. Wonderful!

So when I crashed last year and severely messed up my shoulder I was really depressed about it. We were having fantastic weather at the time, and it was the only week I could have off that season. I'd only been able to ski for 2 days out of the 7 I had planned.

Two mates of mine drove 400 kilometres to the town I was staying in, picked me up and packed my gear (I'd fucked my AC joint, couldn't use my right arm at all and was in a shitton of pain), then drove me home. The entire time they were cracking jokes, helping me with everything, even the slightly embarassing chore of getting my pants on in the morning. They never hesitated to come out and help me get back for even a second. Completely unasked, they did all that for me.

Couple of really nice guys, I'd do anything for either of them.

(There's a couple stories about nice things people have done for me, but this one really stands out. Shame neither of them read b3ta, I've never been able to get out how much that meant to me to either of them).

moot runs the world.
Everyone that messes with 4chan gets stomped on, anon is able to do whatever they want with seeming impunity.

AT&T is powerless against anon, they tried to block 4chan and retreated within a couple hours.

moot - Real world leader?

» Family Feuds

Ah, Grant.
You were always a little overshadowed by your brother (to hear what your dear 'ol mum used to have to say about it).

'course, after you schemed with that fucking accountant to steal yer crippled dad's savings, she doesn't have much to say about you at all. Living with Bruce now, I wonder if that burns? The brother who always gives a damn about you. Now he lets you stay in his house when you've got nothing and noone else left. I hope you don't resent it.

You were always someone I looked up to, until I didn't anymore.

» Rubbish Towns

Shitty town.
Stopped off in a tiny craphole in order to pick up some lunch on the way home from a holiday.

Now, I'll admit to looking a bit eccentric, but it's hardly noticed when I amble around town or turn up to work.... wearing a Tophat most of the time isn't that remarkable.

Everyone stopped and looked at me wherever I roamed.
I was waiting in line at the supermarket when the grossly fat people behind me struck up a conversation. They were laughing about how it was "just like waiting in the dole queue ha ha ha ha ha".

Some children threw stones at me. Their parents laughed, while stuffing their faces with fried chicken and drinking cans of crappy beer at 11am.

I had the longest shower ever when I finally got home. Trying to wash the stench of smalltown New Zealand off of my skin.
