Hi there! My name is Willy, but you can call me Willy.
I'm here to:
- Get a little wacky
- Get a little weird
- Get a little real
I hope to:
- Entertain
- Be entertained
- Share what I know and feel
- Learn what I can from others
- Grow wiser and have more funner in the process!
PSST...
Now since this is my very own lil online diary, I'm gonna let you in on a lil secret:
I am actually a "character"...
that my "producer"...
...uses to prop up his own self-image so that he may shower the social medias with his incessant noises, passive rage, cringeworthy antics and delusional grandeur.
Then, in his personal life, he meta-trolls everything I do so that he can write it all off as him just being funny or clever.
But let's keep it real... at the end of the day my "producer" actually cares deeply about everything I do and say.. as he cries himself to sleep. Yeah, it can get pretty confusing.
And who else cares anyway, right?!
But.. but.. but........ the SOCIAL MEDIAS!!
I EXIST!!! I PROMISE!!!!
See?? Me, me, meme...
Nomnomnomnom.. #OSsloth
Anyway, this is getting too complicated. So for simplicity's sake, let's briefly analyze my two main sides, with photo comparisons below:
Uncle Willy
- Wacky
- Yet more sane & rational
- But still a bit off
Doctor Wokka
- Wackier
- Unhinged, perhaps triggered
- Baby rage
Basically...
These two yokels each come and go as I try to manage it all from the center hub of the Wokka vortex.
And all the while, my "producer" holds the fetal position in one of the back corners.
He claims it is safe there.
So enough ABOUT me, let's take a look at more photos OF me!
Let's compare the mess that is us three creatures sharing a soul...
Uncle Willy
Doctor Wokka
"Producer"
Uncle Willy
Doctor Wokka
"Producer"
Uncle Willy
Doctor Wokka
"Producer"
OK, that's it. You've been introduced traumatized enough...
I look forward to sharing more of my sanity-forsaken travels with you in the bright and Steemy future.
But for now... Happy Steemings and Wokka Wokka!!
Nice to meet you, @willywokka! Welcome to the Steemit Community, wish you good luck and a good start, ive send you a small tip and followed you, hope you have an amazing day! :)
@memethugx, nice name, sounds gangstaaaa! ;) And my first tip?! YaaY! And thank you for the follow too. Your comment and the others' comments here really did make my day, believe it or not. Very rewarding!
hahah :) Happy Steemings to you as well :)
I know, right?! I love all the Steem puns on this site, pretty much the only reason I signed up. jk wokka wokka! Anyway, thank you @best-trip-eva. And cool name! ;)
Cool beard cool cat, upvoted
@adventurerider, thank you! I always welcome the beard comments. And boy, have I heard it all haha.
Well, that intro post sure too a team effort. Well done Team Wokka! haha I look through intro posts almost every day looking for promising new accounts. Yours definitely looked like it had promise. Then I started to read through it, and I vomited a little in my mouth. Then I chuckled. Finally, you got me. Okay, seriously, that's a very unique intro. Kudos to you and your wackiness for making it. Welcome to Steemit, Willy Wokka!
There are a ton of other webpages to help you with Steemit. Here are some of the best for beginners:
https://steemd.com/ (This site is used to keep track of your voting power and other stats. You do not want to run out of voting power, and you only get so much per day. I keep my voting power around 80% for example.)
https://steem.makerwannabe.com/ (This site will tell you who follows you, who unfollows you, and who mutes you. It is great for meeting new people too. I regularly check it to see who has followed me to see if I should follow them back.)
https://steemit.chat/ (This site is the official chat webpage for Steemit. There are Discord channels too, but I usually stick to the official site. Come in to network and meet new friends. You can directly message people there too, so it makes it easier to communicate with your closest friends.)
Oh yeah, there are a lot of bots on here. If you see a cookie cutter reply, especially to your intro post, it is almost certainly a bot. Check the account's reputation. If it is low, I would recommend just ignoring them. Everything is public on Steemit, so you can go look at an account's comments and replies. Are they all the same? It's a bot.
Adding photos to your account as a new Steemian may be confusing at first too. The easiest way it to click to "Submit a Story." Once in there, use the built in Steemit tool to upload an image from your computer. Below the posting window, you will see "Insert images by dragging & dropping, pasting from the clipboard, or by selecting them." Click on the blue text. Once the image is uploaded, you can copy and paste the link into your account settings.
Verifying your identity is very important because it will get you more support and people will trust you more. The best way to verify is to link back to your Steemit account by using another public social media account. For example, I posted my Steemit articles from here through my Twitter account. Another person posted their Steemit information on their Facebook account. Some people will even post a video of themselves writing out their account information since that cannot be Photoshopped. The more famous a person is or the more valuable their content is, the more important it is that they verify. If a new account falls within those two categories and fails to verify, it may get blacklisted.
Again, welcome, and I've followed you! If you have any questions about getting started, look me up on the chat site.
HAHA @finnian! When you said you vomited a little in your mouth, that made my cry a little. It was heart-warming what can I say?? ;] And I really appreciate the rest of your kudos about my post and my promising future here. Very inspiring.
And nice username! Finnian = Fair one
Very cool. Are you Irish?
PS. thank you for all the beginner tips!!
My father is half German and half Irish. :)
