Warning, gigantor reply incoming, plus a salute. I meant to reply to all this yesterday but social anxiety happened and I spent it working on a remix of @Ultramartyr's awesome song, Honor.

Will do.
I think it's neat to look back at your work and see how you've improved.
True, true. Although, I never really intend to go back to flash unless something major happens. I've gone full speed into music and there are just some things I'm naturally better at than others. Once or twice a year I knock out a portrait for a friend though. Like I mentioned, there was a holiday dedicated to mocking me years past. It's not something I want to revisit too badly, haha. Unless someone has a copy of Flash MX or Flash 8 to play with. That'd be fun. I can't afford the new software anymore though.
Financial stuff that requires intelligence and fore-planning.
Quite a haul, and good on you. I've never considered investing in the stock market, not after Mom's 401k got rekt in the 2000's.
Thinking there is an average of 30 days in a month I just need to make about $6-$7 more a day to break even. I'm sure I can figure it out. Next two rent due dates will still be trying though if I can't figure something out by then.
I'll keep praying for you. I could do something more helpful like mailing you my change, but something tells me my mom would look at me sideways. >.> If you do come up with a GoFundMe, I'll save up a front page post for ya.
I couldn't ask for a better job situation right now though. I live in family housing at an University because of my spouse going to grad school. My daughters day care is a 2 minute walk from our apartment, my job is a 15 minute walk from my apartment, and my spouses school is a 5 minute walk.
That's not bad at all, aside from expenses. I can remember my mom talking about how tight money was for her back in the day, working 12 hours a day and then some and having to pay extra if she was held over and picked me up late. Also, I'm always happy to hear about happily married couples with kids. My mom and dad split when I was 6 weeks old. Lot of hardship.
So I'm a Christian. I've just had a falling out with the church
I actually haven't been going to church, for a lot of the same reasons you mentioned. Plus, I celebrate Shabbat by the luni-solar calendar, and most of them think I'm crazy because Shabbat can land on any day of the week depending on the conjunction of the moon. Besides that, no one wants to hear that the institution of the Gregorian calendar got tons of Jews and Christians killed, like Constantine's continuous week cycle.
Some of the crowd just got up and left, us included. It was disgusting and as discriminatory as it comes. I called him out on it and he refused to show his face to me in public again.
Unfortunately, that's usually how it goes. People don't get that every one of us has a pet sin. No one is worse than the other, and we aren't to go around insulting people and calling them fags. If you hate anyone, including gays, the love of the Father is not in you. I'm sorry you guys had to deal with that.
Sorry, makes me a little sick to my stomach to get into it too much. :P
No need. People can be sea urchins, and sometimes it gets the stomach lurchin'. ;P
I'll never forget being in 2nd grade and not being able to eat dinner until I did all of the additional homework my father assigned me so I always got 100% on every spelling test. Or how I was forced to go to work even if I was sick and I never missed a single day of school until my college career.
That sounds insane, and I hope you didn't end up ridiculed for it by other kids. My dad was the total opposite. I can remember one day in the first grade, I wasn't feeling so hot, and my dad turned to me and said, "Well hey babe, you think you'd feel better if we took a break from school and went on down to Pensacola?" And 7 hours later, we were sitting on the beach in Pensacola, bellies full of Red Diamond Tea and PB&J's, I kid you not. I remember Dad was on the beach looking after this hispanic girl's drunked out father while she and I played with a pink floatie, and every time the waves would come in, she'd yell, "Hubba hubba!" I still remember the sound of her voice and her little hands. She was right pretty to me, I have to say.
From then on, we went to Pensacola every year around the same time, sometimes on the weekend, sometimes not, haha. That being said, I never had to worry about my grades. I was just a natural inquisitive. I was reading encyclopedias before I was in school.
Now I have to be basically dying to miss something and never learned how to give up. I thank him for that.
There's always a silver lining. Sometimes I wish I'd been pushed harder when I was younger. Although, my band directors did enough of that in college. I can remember one exhibition we did, I'd had a sore throat for weeks, and I really felt like crap that day, but I knew I had a solo to perform on one hand and a scholarship to lose on the other, not that the thought ever entered my mind of not performing.
Well, it was about noon when we performed, 105 degrees on the turf. We get about halfway through the show, and I start noticing, "Hey, is that grass... turning yellow? Why is the whole sky white? Why are the black people also white, and our black pants grey, and the white people -- they look like angels!" Of course when you're in marching band, you just keep pushing through the show as your mind wanders. No matter how bad you feel, it's just second nature to keep going. But on "Dream On" as I was performing my solo, I really started feeling it. Everything was turning white. I just closed my eyes and focused on the instrument. Opening my eyes was like looking upon a thousand stars.
When we finally circled up and went off the field, which was a long ordeal, I made it to the sideline, took a knee with the last of my strength and passed out for who knows how long. Woke up, went to my room and slept until the 2nd performance. I thought I was fine afterward, but that night I had to go to the hospital. I almost went into convulsions. They ended up realizing I had an abscessed tonsil the size of a 50 cent piece, necrosing. A biopsy came back inconclusive, and they gave me a huge shot in the butt, which I don't even remember. I was going in and out of consciousness.
I'm just a little amazed, looking back. I performed that whole show while having some kind of heat stroke, and I didn't even realize, but I was dying. That's what dedication can do to you if you don't watch yourself.

You can stop it from auto-playing in your settings, but I think you can only uncheck it in the Game and Movie sections, not UJ. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Later today or this week I'll make a post in the icon mod thread and tag you in it with some instructions/examples.
I will say the snip tool on Windows does a great job of helping cut the process short. Snip, blow up as needed, crop, done. Please do tag me when you get around to making a post. Right now I'm working on commissions and answering my inbox. :)

Yes and no. If you go thru the Portal, then no. If you see a big red A, that means it's Admin approved for showing at meetings. ...or something like that. If you go thru the Game or Movies Page, or the Art Portal, then you'll have E, T, M, A buttons. Now, ETMA (pronounced ET-MUH) is greek, and usually translates as "ooh, I can click it," or in some tongues, "I can fap to this." However, for Newgrounds purposes, it's an easter egg that makes little X's show up and shuffles the content. It's cool. What was the question again?

It depends. Many times, I feel next to nothing. Most times go off without a hitch, but nothing's perfect, and I have had some times that were not as good as normal.
Uhh same game submitted twice!
This is stolen from here!
Its one of these games, really sorry I have no idea what you call them! Shovelware I think!

Yes, Slideshows are against the rules. Submissions that only show Gameplay of any sort (including Roblox) would be against the rules too. Thanks for the report.

Old work
I guess you do have the option of unpublishing and it saves the file right?
Quite a haul, and good on you. I've never considered investing in the stock market, not after Mom's 401k got rekt in the 2000's.
I think it was luck on my end. The company I worked for gave a 15% discount if you had it come out of your paycheck. I bought most of my stock when they were around $30 each and sold them for $80 each.
If only I knew the increase I would have put a ton into it. Captain foresite to the rescue!

I could make one... slightly embarrassed... slightly to proud... slightly too concerned with it ending up with $0 in it. I guess it's worth a shot though. We figured $2,500 puts us in a situation with bills where I don't have to take a second job and we will start being financially stable. Moving across country just cost us so much.
That's not bad at all, aside from expenses. I can remember my mom talking about how tight money was for her back in the day, working 12 hours a day and then some and having to pay extra if she was held over and picked me up late. Also, I'm always happy to hear about happily married couples with kids. My mom and dad split when I was 6 weeks old. Lot of hardship.
We pay below average rent for the area and below average childcare too. We have a lot of things going for us. Just need to get through the temporary struggle.
I actually haven't been going to church, for a lot of the same reasons you mentioned. Plus, I celebrate Shabbat by the luni-solar calendar
Either explain to me what Shabbat is or I'll have to look it up sometime soon.
Or how I was forced to go to work even if I was sick and I never missed a single day of school until my college career.
I meant to say forced to go to school. I did not have a job as a young child.
Memories with dad
I can say he's been there for me every time I really needed him to be. He's a good dad.. he has problems.. he knows it to, but I think he's too far in and too old for help now. He's in his 70s and with his health issues I expect the phone call any year now.
From then on, we went to Pensacola every year around the same time, sometimes on the weekend, sometimes not, haha. That being said, I never had to worry about my grades. I was just a natural inquisitive. I was reading encyclopedias before I was in school.
Grades were never an issue. It was pure perfection. I couldn't get less than 100% on every single assignment and not get whooped for it.
Performing while sick
I have nothing to compare this with. I once ran for a 40 yard touchdown two plays after breaking my ankle though haha.

We always debate having another child. I think the idea of birthing another child makes us second guess it. We will adopt whenever we find ourselves financially able. I'm thinking when she graduates and one of these Universities is lucky enough to grab her as a professor.
I don't think I'm up to donating for those things though.

@Asandir @Exedor
I'm pretty sure @ mentions don't work for notifying people if you edit them in later, so the extra post is justified. I don't think people on NG generally mind about double posting anyway unless you're transparently going for stat inflation.
Also tbh you're all a cute bunch of guys and I'm glad this little crew exists & that I became a part of it.
I go through phases of barely posting here but I've had this thread "followed" right from the moment that feature was introduced and I've fully read every post to come through here since. So even if I don't respond, know someone's here to read whatever you decide to post <3
At 10/5/17 10:20 AM, Fro wrote: Either explain to me what Shabbat is or I'll have to look it up sometime soon.
Pretty sure that's just an alt (perhaps jewish) spelling of Sabbath, the holy day of rest in abrahamic religions and usually assumed to be sunday.
It's the ads they display on the banner that's really bad. No matter if I click play or not there's penis, vagina, and boobs everywhere.
Just gotta cop that supporter status brah. $3 and no ads ever.
Adult submissions do indeed look pretty abysmal because of the ads though, but it's not something I have to think about. It's always a bit of a shock the odd time I open a submission incognito and am assaulted with the ad-filled version of the site, and its such a shame most people have to view the site that way. A totally ad-free NG is definitely achievable if more people support though, so get shilling.
And @ADR3-N your band story is pretty harsh and all but this one time I feinted from the heat while standing at assembly while some teacher droned on for two hours about nothing and I'll have you know it was literally the worst!!!!

I would love to. I wouldn't be able to afford it if it were a single $1 though. I'm already running, no limping, off of -$7 a day net loss. Maybe if that number were +$1 a day I would be able to spare the extra $3 a month.

It's not stolen, it's a known shovelware submitter (NSR Escapegames) using an Alt to try trick us Portal Mods. Unfortunately for them, we're awesome at spotting Alt activity.

It's cool dude, I was just messing with you. You we're right to report it but just not because it was stolen. NSR generally submit Escape Games to Newgrounds & there original account was NSR Escapegames. The account name will likely never match because they have to use Alt account names to be able to submit their stuff. That's why we're always on the lookout for them & others that do the same. It's fairly rare these days that any of this kind of stuff lasts more than a few minutes, thanks to our crack team of Portal Mods.
