@Embee: i'm okay! hopefully i graduate next month but i've barely started my thesis, so...it'll take a miracle to pass how about you??

I totally forgot to reply, sorry! I’m doing pretty good. I just graduated with my bachelors and quit my dishwashing job, so now I’m just babysitting and doing a work-from-home music internship thing. How is your thesis going?

[Marvin D.]

@radgeek: 42

@MB: no worries exciting! will you do a master's? or what's the plan? my thesis is due on the 21st and i honestly have never been more stressed as i am rn

Maybe your lack of answering the question from three years ago made people avoid the topic?

What is your favourite smiley and why?

[EMBEE]

I haven’t been on here in ages, but as soon as I saw the email notification that someone posted on this thread, I knew I had to come say hi! My question is, how are you?

hi marvin.

if you had to take the stage at carnegie hall in new york city and perform before a sold-out crowd, what would you do that would leave them talking for years to come? personally, i would probably just take my shoes and socks off and run back and forth making spaceship noises for about 15 minutes and then i would solicit questions from the crowd. this is because my q&a thread is dead and it makes me sad, so i need this crowd's validation. anyway, looking forward to your answer in 2024!

hello stevey.

if i had no time to prepare, i would probably recite Ozymandius by P.B. Shelley. it's the only poem i still remember. i can do a very dramatic rendition of it, i think.

Woohoo! The smart move is to set people up not to expect lightning fast replies from you so they're pleasantly surprised when the answers only take months instead of years.

I really would love to use the dancing smiley in other places, but alas, it just seems to be here on the ToO.
