Not a bad idea, but the mod wants to close and goldmine it, and I don't think there's any coming back from the goldmine.

...and delicious ice cream.
I don't think he's dead, just dead tired. And possibly depressed since he went through such an ordeal and things are only slowly starting to look up. Or, possibly, he's doing amazing and is having sex with strippers in his penthouse apartment, gleefully deleting his SomethingAwful account.

He also just drove across the country, started a job and moved into an apartment after being homeless. Dude might be a little busy.

I just finished this thread and, wow. What a rollercoaster. I'm so glad things are (hopefully) getting on track for you. You actually moved fairly close to me; I'm in Wyandotte, myself. If you need anything, please don't hesitate to shoot me a message. I don't have much, but I'm lucky enough to always have enough pocket money to treat someone to a decent dinner and karaoke.

Why are people asking to close the thread? If you're not interested or can't stand tony homo anymore, that's understandable, but then just stop following.
Asking to close it now is like telling other people at a dinner table that they're done eating.

how much do you eat that people constantly tell you to stop eating?

Yes, they were. I've been collecting them over the last decade or so. I know they're just plates, but I'm seriously bummed.

read the thing i said above ^^^^ and it will be some condolences to u. a new game for ur kids can be like: make a new xmas plate. or another gmae: take a plat thats already kinda nice but then paint a santa on it


yeah the plates wont be as nice as your old ones visually, but it will give u memory feels when u look at them as the years pass and remember the simpler times u stole those cats from that homeless guy lmao

Best thing about broken christmas decorations, is getting an excuse to buy 90% marked down new christmas decorations!

Also: Display at least a shard of a plate next year. It's a story to share. 5 years from now when company are over and ask about the broken plate you get to respond, "Well, let me tell you about my friend, the horse, from the internet!"

The most recently adopted cat of mine has a tendency to knock things down too. It's incredibly frustrating, and we've been fortunate that nothing of too much value (sentimental or monetary) has been broken, but we've had to learn to be more careful about what we leave where.

Sorry about your plates. Were the Christmas tree ones vintage Spode? There are several sellers on Etsy that have them for sale.
