I hate smarm and I hate sentimentality, probably because I'm a smarmy sentimentalist at heart.
I recently went through a very bad spell. A falling-on-the-floot-and-chewing-the-carpet bad spell. I'm talking about the kind of depression that is so bad that it feels like a toothache in your soul, where it hurts just being alive, and from which I could get no relief, not from shrinks, not from friends or family, not from medicine and drugs. But I got it from some pornographers on this site.
I especially want to thank Perdita, who quite literally saved my ass when I thought it wasn't worth the trouble of saving, and who did it with grace, wit, and warmth, and without a whiff of smarm or a single cliche. She's a formidable presence whom I was lucky to meet just when things got to be really unbearable, and I don;t think anybody else could have done what she did for me.
I'd also like to thank Annabellee2003, who was playing an SRP game with me and who stepped out of character to be real for a while.
And the same to everyone else who keeps this place doing whatever it does: grinding out words of lust and profanity and all the other crap human beings seem to care about. I appreciate you all.
Well, most of you. Some of you are just real pains in the ass.
That's all I wanted to say.
Please don't respond to this with smarmy tales of sentimentality of your own. No fucking sympathy. Let's face it: life is rough and it's only other people who make it bearable. I just wanted to point out some of them and thank them in public.
