Why I Love Hybirdx

[BlazeofLife]

His indomitable willingness to persevere.

Despite repeated criticism, he still boldly clings to his writing style, refusing to change himself to suit another.

Jeez you got your work cut out for ya!

Despite a degree of enmity between himself and a certain other poster in ORP announcments, he still finds it within himself to encourage and support that poster in his endeavors, a truly admirable trait in any person.

In the past, there has been a tendency of the ORP board to ignore many of his threads, most of which are promptly shuffled off the end of the page by other, supposedly more worthy, threads.
Most people would give up, and be disheartened, but Hybirdx continues to post new ideas, refusing to give in to discouragement and marching steadfastly onward with his originality.

His ability to pick an artistic representation, or avatar, that suits him perfectly, as illustrated by the fact that his current one has been up for as long as I can remember, yet still fits him perfectly, and retains its obvious charm for him, judging by the fact that he has never changed or altered it in any way, so far as I am aware.

He's not afraid to admit his frustrations to others, and listen to those others to help him. he has repeatedly vented about problems with his schooling, yet has been wise and intelligent enough to accept the suggestions of others in the thread to try to remedy the situation, rather than simply lash out in anger mindlessly, as is the wont of many a frustrated person.

Sounds like an admirable person.

Hiya Blaze,

An addedanum to #5: Yup, Hy has decided to suck it up and stick it out to Graduation. What a shocking thing! He decided that the best way to get back at all the frustration is to shove the Diploma in their face.

He did not let his anger cloud his thinking and judgement, and so this is admirable, like Freya said.

Keep it up Blaze, we've have our money on you.

Reason #6

His shy and unassuming manner, which surfaces whenever the subject of sexual relations comes up. He avoids the subject, yet does so in a manner which, though it informs all present that he has no wish to indulge in a subject which obviously has deep connotations for him, still manages to leave all others comfortable in their own enjoyment of the discussion.

Heh Heh Heh ...

I'm trying Blaze to break that ... :evil kitty grin:

 

[BlazeofLife]

Reason #7

His dedication to his craft.
Despite many pressures heaped upon him by life, his brother, and his school, he continues to strive toward his goal of becoming an accredited artist, regardless of what others think.

Reason #8

His unswerving loyalty to Lit.
Even when I log in and see no one else's name, I can nearly always count on him being around somewhere, ready to post a valid response to any questions or remarks made in ORP Announcements.

[BlazeofLife]

Reason #9

His self-confidence.
He has an unswerving confidence in himself, as exemplified by the many strong and powerful characters he portrays, and by the way he carries himself even when acting as only himself.

Reason #10

His excellent taste in art, in this case, anime.
I discovered my new favorite movie of all time based on a recomendation by him.

So far so good Blaze. This is pretty eye opening, even to those of us that talk to Hybird daily.

Reason #11

His excellent taste in music.
Bone thugs N' Harmony are and always have been the greatest artists of all time, especially their song Crossroads.

Blaze

 

[BlazeofLife]

Reason #12

His sociability.
Whenever someone comes into the announcements thread, be they a regular or someone new, Hy is always one of the first people to greet them, and is always prompt to offer congratulations for new milestones.

Blaze

 

[BlazeofLife]

Reason #13

His restraint.
Though he is often ridiculed by certain other individuals, whom I will not name, he holds himself above a response, showing a depth of character not in keeping with his years.

Blaze

 

[BlazeofLife]

Reason #14

His relentless search for perfection, which led him to strive all night for his sig line, which now sports the fruits of his labours.

Blaze

 

[BlazeofLife]

Reason #15

His spontanaity, which leads him to post quizes sporadically throughout the thread, giving others a chance to indulge in the same things he enjoys.

Blaze

 

[BlazeofLife]

Reason #16

His forthright nature.
He isn't afraid to say when he's had enough of something, or to tell the truth about someone (as he perceives it) despite the fact that the person in question will doubtless resent the saying.

Blaze

 

[BlazeofLife]

Reason #17

His modesty.
Despite the growing number of comments in this thread, he has yet to make a single self-serving or self-rightous remark related to any of them, where others would certainly try to parlay the comments expressed herein into a form of self-flattery.

[Lauren Hynde]

LOL

Good one! Just 3 more...

 

[BlazeofLife]

Reason #18

His maturity, which causes others to often mistake his age when judging him on his responses to questions and situations.

Edited to add:
Uh oh, just noticed:
I wrote this at 11:58 my time, but it shows 12:02 on the Lit display.
Guess this'll be a call from the judges...

I'll pretend I didn't see either the time or the BS, just 'cause I'm in a good mood.
