Guess he's busy being a father, I can relate. Yeah, I got into him a little after he released Therapy Session, been along for the ride since. I've actually seen For King & Country in concert. They definitely haven't gone mainstream, it's a small crowd that pays attention to the Christian music genre. Finding Friendships
Probably. I actually prefer he take time for his family than give us a constant stream of music Speaking of family, CONgrats on your second child Beautiful I'd known him for a long time before I got old enough to like and understand his music Same! Very true Have you seen For King & Country's new movie, btw? I haven't
Both would be nice, but can't have it all I guess. Thanks! Were your siblings into him at all? I saw one quite a few years ago, but I'm sure they've released at least one new one since, so probably not. Finding Friendships
Those are fifteen minutes you can never get back, but hundreds of thousands of dollars? Those will be practically worthless due to inflation in like a hundred years or so. I bet they're gonna get along great!
I think they'll just have to sit down and watch stuff on the tv.
Sure, and while we're waiting for that to kick in why don't you sit down and here and I'll put on a movie? Finding Friendships
Yeah, how hard can it be to just get a few hundred thousand dollars somewhere else? Everyone knows that foxes and armadillos are natural allies.
How barbaric!
Okay, sure, I guess I’m not doing anything.
All you gotta do is go to the bank and ask, I'm sure they wouldn't say no to such trustworthy individuals such as ourselves. They've got oodles just lying around, I'm sure. Not at all like the relationship foxes and rabbits have, thank goodness.
I know, I'm raising him like it's the stone age.
That's good, cause you're not getting back up now. *beginning scene of Jurassic World plays* Finding Friendships
It was good while it lasted, hopefully a worthy film comes along and reboots the genre at some point.
I never saw the show for Nexo Knights, but we (one of my brothers or I) did get a set. Based just on the sets and the LEGO magazine the line seemed pretty okay.
Well I want to officially put in my demand for it, if that's fine with you. Finding Friendships
Indeed, maybe a movie based on one of the older LEGO themes would be fun, Adventurers, for instance.
I recall watching a couple of episodes, but the plot was usually extremely repetitive, often culminating in a fight scene where the good guys shout ''Nexo Knights'' and become OP. I got the impression that the main focus was to advertise the game, which was probably the case. Some of the sets were fun though.
Hey wait, you can't do that, I'm happily semi-retired. I'll have to wake Henny up from hibernation, now. Finding Friendships
Oh, that would be cool! I feel like there's plenty to go off of there.
Yeah, that doesn't sound like the basis of a good show. I did like their villain design for the sets.
Yeah, if you're semi-retired than Henny is a couple steps beyond that. Finding Friendships

Right, because banks are totally known for just giving money to people who ask with no obligation to return it later. I definitely did not forget until now that that was the reason I needed a fox in the first place.
I mean, maybe if it's the Flintstones version of the Stone Age (I'm assuming there are TVs in the Flintstones. I don't know. I've never watched it. This joke was doomed from the start.)

In Tennessee?? Duuude we could meet up xDD But that's so cool! Is it a zoo-related internship? I hope the job works out well and isn't too stressful.
Oh gosh, I can't remember what last you heard of me... xD Uh, well, I'm going into my senior year of college now, which is very frightening, as I keep having crises where I suddenly have no idea what I want to do with my life and am paralyzed with terror and indecision. But I'm trying to learn the basics of traditional animation while also trying to improve my art style, which the vague plan of one day getting a job on an indie production or something. I'm still helping my friends run our campus's creative writing club, and I'm essentially the secretary who plans stuff, keeps lists of what needs to be done and reminds everyone when there's a meeting and stuff. I'm also beginning a marketing internship this week, which I am very nervous about. I'm trying to balance my school life with my creative hobbies while trying not to freak out every time I remember that I'm going to graduate next year and that I'll never get to romanticize being a student ever again. Despite some of my closest friends having already graduated, I'm really happy where I am and I'm not ready to let go of this phase of my life just yet. ( o,o')
We actually could one day xD I'm assuming the mods aren't as stressed about discussing real life things as the OG mods were when we were all wee kiddos so I feel like I could safely say the zoos I'm lookin at right now are in Nashville and Cincinnati. But yeah, I'm both hyped and terrified to be closer to living on my own, where I don't have the facade of college to simulate the experience while also sheltering me from the reality of it. But it'll be aight.
Dude, senioritis is reaalll. xD I didn't realize it until the last semester, but I was so burnt out and losing motivation while simultaneously knowing I should enjoy the last few months, so it was just like a constant state of crisis. That would be really cool though! Traditional animation is still so much more impressive to me than CGI just because of the amount of work and detail behind it. How's the internship going? And what does it entail? Cuz like, I feel like marketing could be a cool thing to study or a really boring thing depending on how it's presented.
I totally feel that. Just soak up all your favorite things and enjoy as much as you can. :3 I just went back to school for the first time since May to watch my theatre friends doing their thing this past weekend, and it brought back a whole wave of missing the people and places and all the little mundane details that were my whole life for 4 years.. ^^' Definitely bittersweet but it's also weird to look from the outside and see how much stuff has changed once you leave too. I don't know that I like that feeling.
It probably helps that most of us aren't minors anymore, yeah xDD Oh how cool!! I don't know where you lived before, but Tennessee is so pretty, I think you'll like it. Girl ME TOOOOOO!! It scares me so much sometimes I legit feel my heart race and feel lightheaded, it's not even funny anymore But I'm trying to stay proactive and optimistic.
Ugh, that sounds rough... xP Oh, it's... going? I think? XD I really just do menial tasks like copying and pasting email templates and making possible poster logos and templates. I'm technically learning how to use Adobe software, though my supervisor just tells me to watch the YouTube tutorials and assumes I'll figure it out. But for an unpaid internship, it'a a very cushy job, and I'm very grateful that I was able to get it. (^,^) Yeahhh, uh - to be honest.., it's mostly really boring. But that's because I'm not really being taught anything; I'm technically learning how to use Adobe programs, but my supervisor just tells me to watch YouTube tutorials on how to use it, and whenever I have any questions about the programs, she doesn't really seem to know the answer. While I'm grateful it's not a stressful job, I'm growing increasingly worried that I'm not gaining any skills that will help me land a Communication-related job. (>.>')
Thanks for the advice Awww... That's definitely got to feel so weird, yeah... I don't envy you That's why I'm a little reluctant to find a job somewhere close by my college. My roommate really like the idea of us getting an apartment together here, and as much as I love the idea of rooming with her in our little cottagecore place in the woods, I think moving onto my next stage of life while living nearby the place where I dramatically grew and changed as a person throughout the past few years would weird me out and make me feel a little disoriented and lost, if that makes sense...?
How many people here actually drink pumpkin spice lattes when it's fall? I'm just curious.
I gravitate toward apple cider and hot chocolate personally. Pumpkin stuff smells nice but the only pumpkin byproduct I consume are pepitas, cuz they have iron and ya girl is anemic.
Fair xD I loooooove hot chocolate. I can't wait for it to get really cold, I'm so hyped.
Yeah, and it seems like some people never grow out of that.
I always have a hard time understanding that enmity, but then again, I've got awesome siblings. Finding Friendships
Yeah, I dunno. People I've known who've retained that attitude toward their siblings have always been folks with whom I've shared very little in common with, so it's hard to say. But yeah, having rad siblings really helps. Mine are way nicer than I am IRL.
I think to an extent that's true, but there's still a lot of arguably valuable experiences that you lose as a child when you're shut out from the rest of the world. Well you're homeschooled, so you ought to be used to that by now.
Yeah, very true, but there's also a lot of crappy experiences you avoid, so it's a toss-up. I think it all comes down to how separate from the rest of the world you were, because some parents definitely take it way too far. That just makes it worse Tigress!!!
Finding Friendships
Also fair. I guess it really depends on what kind of dangers you feel you'd prefer your child to face, not necessarily which option will have the fewer dangers. I mean.... yeah
Probably. I actually prefer he take time for his family than give us a constant stream of music Speaking of family, CONgrats on your second child Beautiful I'd known him for a long time before I got old enough to like and understand his music Same!

Much to my chagrin I remember that Baby Dill was obsessed for a while, and she still really likes him. I think that Essa and Mr. Merry Mayhem both enjoyed his music, but I don't really remember them listening to him Oh did you see the Perfect one, then?

I mean, I didn't say there wouldn't be strings attached. I had to think back a ways too. At least now you're safe from bunny-related mayhem, right? And I have a new high-maintenance pet.
I feel like they do, but all my Flintstones knowledge is very dated, but then again, so is everything Flintstone related.
Aren't you having fun RuleJJ? Isn't this movie great? Finding Friendships

That's a good point and a good way to put it. Are you not pulling your sibling weight Tigress? What role do you play in the family? Black sheep? The guinea pig? Perfect child? Overlooked one? Finding Friendships
