Nah I'm not
Bring a case of beers to my house, yes?
I wanna see you buried alive.
And all the hotshot carrying on that you do
It's your only move
surely the infamous Will has more to talk about now?
Yeah I do
OK, I promised myself that I would read all of this blog and give an appropriate response. So here it is. :)
"Making news posts is always something that riles me up over what I should actually put here."
I know how you feel. A while ago I made a very short blog showing pictures of me from two different years. One was better than the other. I got 34 comments, excluding spam comments which is fantastic for me. I thought it was great that I was receiving so much traffic, but then I felt, "This isn't anything. It's a neat thing I found, that's it." Whenever I make a huge blog (much like this one), then no one takes the time to read all of it, or they'll leave an unrelated comment. So whenever I create a new blog, I feel like writing tons of shit but know that it'll get ignored. It sucks.
"If someone says something nice about, you're happy and feel like some sort of role model for that person."
It felt good getting nominated by Mechabloby last year for 'Master Creator'. Apparently my topics were/are quite good. That was the only nomination received, but it wasn't a case of "DAAAAW NOMINATE ME PLZ". He genuinely felt that I was deserving of it, and I did feel good. It also feels good that some people look up to me or call me in times of trouble, whether it be NG related or not. I feel valued.
"On the other hand there's the kick in the stomach you get when you see someone make a negative comment about you or put you in a bad category. "
The only bad category I have been nominated for was 'Attention Whore' by The-D-Lucks Edition, also last year. It did cause some uncomfort, but I eventually let it wash over me. I think bad comments/nominations becomes a problem when it's in a certain abundance. If you receive 1 nasty comment from someone then you think "Meh, just some stupid kid." If you receive 5 nasty comments, then you think "Hey, am I really like that?" I can't say I know exactly how you feel here, but I understand how it could be a problem.
I don't get what people like so much about WoW, it never really caught on to me. I prefer Counter Strike. TF2 looks great as well, but my computer is horrible for that sort of thing. :(
"Speaking of IRL, let's not. I'm sure nobody could care less about my life nor do they want to read me droning on about it since I sure don't unless it's a person I care about, which I don't think many people do about me on here."
Sometimes you just have to do it for yourself. No one might turn up, but you have to vent RL frustrations in a tangible form in order to keep on top of them, and to not let them get you down. The people who give a damn will be there to offer advice.
"Flash has been hanging over me like a dark foreboding shadow, beckoning me to curdle back into her ghastly talons of tweening and patience."
Ah, Flash. I suck at it so much, and yet I keep on coming up with ideas that I know will never happen (due to a faulty laptop and poor skills). I can see it playing in my mind, but when I'm sitting down with my laptop, I'll lose patience and pick up my DS. And the thing is, I know how it works. I know how to animate, and I can animate, but I just lose momentum by the time Flash is done loading. It's a problem being primarily interested in making music videos on Flash when your laptop has no audio; a nightmare when trying to sync events with beats.
It must feel good being able to submit your own work and for it to be valued.
There's nothing sad about getting excited about reaching daily 2nd/FP. I'd be overjoyed just getting a score of +3 on a Flash of my own creation.
And yeah, I know how you feel about the voices. I cringe inside whenever I try to record something and it comes out wrong, or my mic becomes loose and I hear "KRRRRRRRRRRH" throughout the whole recording.
"Seems a bit of a waste even loading up MSN nowadays, seeing as I only really talk to about 3 different people (don't hold me to that number). "
Yeah, you know that you've got +100 contacts, about 70 who you never talk to, but you don't feel the urge to delete them. And so the list is messy.
It feels awkward having small talk with someone and then there is silence. It kind of discourages me from talking to the people that I don't really know. But it feels great when you have a good conversation and you feel closer to that person, and that you know them better. I hate convos that begin with small talk, followed by "Five this for me", or are even initiated with "Five this". You feel like a pawn in someone's army, knowing that when you've done your task, then you are ignored. sonicmega was bad at this, but it's not been so bad now. I don't mind fivening something during a good convo, e.g. "Can you check this out?", but nowadays if people try to use me like that, I tell them to fuck off.
"Why am I writing all this? Good on you for anyone actually reading this far, I don't know what's got into me."

"Was wondering if I should change my username to Wooper"
Nah, I prefer WilliWowza. People will eventually forget what a Wooper is. I find that Pokemon is a fad that went beyond the 90's, no offence. WilliWowza is original, and that makes it memorable.
ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED
Off The Short Bus - (Leave a comment two sentences long) 20g
Yaldy, 20g. You should do this more often. :P
- Ops
I dunno, after a while you realize that you can just distance yourselves from the people who hate on you for your posting. Nobody really knows much of anything about you unless you choose to reveal yourself on the BBS. Posts aren't nearly the whole story.
Like, I used to totally avoid reading your topics as if I could catch disease from 'em. But once I'd seen an interesting opinion of yours on a subject, no longer could I afford to avoid your topics. But then again, I suppose I strive to be a little more reasonable than others in terms of the mutability of my opinions on others.
Whatever. Obviously I read your whole blog. GIMME MAH POINTS.
Hey, I never knew your birthday was a day after mine. :o
I never knew your birthday was a day before mine.
Dude it's nearly our birthdays!
Gligar > Wooper
We rescued the crops!
This is my first sentence. This is my second sentence.
Go out and get drunk legally you son of a bitch
You choose wooper because it's close to shoop da whoop?
Dude, do you live in the UK or US...
Because you might obviously live in the UK, but then again there is a London in the US.
Its getting on my fucking nerves!
Wooper>Mudkip

Don't change it to wooper, personally I like your name, its cute. :3
And you should make more flashes, specially if it makes you happy.
WilliWowza
One of the many things that makes me happy, the best thing is just knowing that other people are enjoying it too, nothing makes you feel better than thinking that you've brightened up someone's day that you don't even know.
