Accidentally locking myself out of my account and creating an alt after several agonizing months of no ATOT, knowing the potential repercussions.

The months where I knew something bad was going on in my abdomen and assuming it was liver cancer and not getting it looked at because I didn't have health insurance.

I've been there. Back in 08-09 ATOT went through some big forum change that fubared my account. I couldn't recover it, so I started anew. I had thousands of posts :(

Was beaten and mugged when I was 15. That was pretty scary. Or the days when I was in the county jail and I had been sentenced to prison. I knew I was going and all I could do is wait and worry what was going to happen. They called it "catching a chain" the ride to prison. When I got there I smarted off to one of the guards and they took me in a room and pushed my head against the concrete. I knew I was fucked at that point.

I'm so used to fixing the bad grammar on ATOT automatically that I just now realized the whole thread is stupid. :colbert:

Run on sentence is running on.

Oh BTW.

I was camping up a mountain in France once when this huge thunder storm rolled in.

There was lightning flashing down on nearby peaks and getting closer.

As I looked around and looked at the low scrub around me and the fact that my carbon fiber tent poles were the highest things in the area I suddenly realised I had run out of booze.

That sucked.

One of my friends got electrocuted and I was watching him and his jeans suddenly burst into fire.
Ventured into ATPN for the first time.
