do you ever have those days where you just feel incredibly homestuck
a lot of people misinterpreted this post as “feeling like you’re stuck at home” but i literally meant homestuck, like the webcomic why else would somebody with the url “egberts” use the word homestuck i mean come on
this formatting is making me uncomfortable but I have to tell you something / ask you something that is vital to my career as a student.
I re-read and edited that sentence for an hour, but you’ll probably just glance over it for half a second.
thanks!

I have a stock format and structure I use.
Dear Person I am Writing To:
This is an optional sentence introducing who I am and work for, included if the addressee has never corresponded with me before. The second optional sentence reminds the person where we met, if relevant. This sentence states the purpose of the email.
This optional paragraph describes in more detail what’s needed. This sentence discusses relevant information like how soon an answer is needed, what kind of an answer is needed, and any information that the other person might find useful. If there’s a lot of information, it’s a good idea to separate this paragraph into two or three paragraphs to avoid having a Wall of Text.
If a description paragraph was used, close with a restatement of the initial request, in case the addressee ignored the opening paragraph.
This sentence is just a platitude (usually thanking them for their time) because people think I’m standoffish, unreasonably demanding, or cold if it’s not included.
Closing salutation,
Signature.
People always ask me how I can fire off work emails so quickly. Nobody has figured out yet that it’s the same email with the details changed as needed.
It’s this webcomic where these kids play a game and their like “holy
shit whats going on???” and then the world is destroyed and then some
alien dudes that also played the game are like we have to work together
to survive because you guys suck and made a really strong bad guy. So
then they work together and like rewrite history and spend three years
traveling to the new earth that they caused to exist by rewriting
history. But then on that Earth there were more kids that then played
the same game but the planet wasn’t destroy it was just taken over by
two clowns, Guy Fieri and an alien empress and they ended up killing all
the people but the planet was still okay except is was flooded. So then
everyone meets up in outerspace and are like “we all got to fight these
bad guys that are super strong”. Oh yeah, also there’s ghost of all the
people that played the game and died and they find some bullshit thing
that basically makes one of the kids a fucking consequence-free tardis.
And the ghost are like gonna fight the big bad skeleton guy as like this
huge army and stuff
while the kids and aliens are gonna fight a bunch of other strong bad guys. And then they do! The kids win, but the ghost all die but they get the big bad anyway. After that everyone that still alive goes to the previously flooded Earth but in the future when it’s not flooded and lives happily ever after…
For toastyhat, who wanted Rosa and Signless doing some actiony thing, so I drew them risking to face off zombies in the harsh daylight to get ahead of their highblood pursuers.
i think a more interesting question than “when did you ‘join’ the internet” is “what was the first username you ever used”
my very first ever username (that i remember) was HunterKiller75 cause i thought starcraft was the coolest shit in elementary school & hydralisks were my fav unit, and 75 was my fav number
Dude my first username was dragoongal111 because dragons were cool and I played ridiculous amounts of RTS games, I think at that point particularly Rise of Nations? And Dragoons were my fave unit for some reason. But I was still basic as heck so gal and triple one were username necessities.
