Same! Always like to check if you are still around lol
Jeez, you'd think we have no faith in each other 🤣
Very grateful to have connected over our treasured memories and shared loss of beloved pets, Gem (I believe I spelled that right!) the cat, and Lady the dog, respectively. Thank you to @averageoutsider I often think about him and wonder the obvious questions...
I also find it a blast that I am one of I would imagine close to zero people who remember the derivation of your username, I'm sure many wonder...
SPOILER The mailman did it 🤣
Even in the so-called real world, people are often astounded by the little things I remember about them, their jobs, their family, that has always been because people are genuinely important to me and when they share, I choose to honour, respect and have great gratitude for that.
That doesn't mean I like all humans and don't think many are just bloody jerks!!!🤣
Things will always come along in life to stop us in our tracks, but while I have a breath and as long as Justin Sun doesn't head this way lol, I will always return to Hive, not least because of the things I mention above.
I know many do not consider online community type friends real friends but I do, so just to say, if we don't cross paths for a while sometimes, your checking in from time to time has always been hugely appreciated and I wish you nothing but all the very best for you brother! 😎
By the way we met between 7 and 8 years ago, isn't that crazy?
Raises a glass to averageoutsider 🥂
Your posts sometimes get buried and missed in my feed because of the time difference between us. So every once in a while I do feel the need to check in on you.
That's impressive. Sometimes I barely remember the derivation of my username myself. Interestingly, I still have the same mailman and still talk to him. Sadly, he is getting older and has knee and shoulder issues. He might need to retire sooner rather than later.
Did you know averageoutsider's alt account was angryman. He posted more there in later years but has not been active in over 2 years. Towards the end he was expressing interest in spending less time on social media including Hive. He was also upset about some of his friends being the target of abusive downvoting. He also became blind in one eye due to an injury from his days in the military. So he was having to type with one eye. But overall he was still doing good and looking after a lot of stray furry friends.
