Reasons for posting in SYM

1) It lets your work load grow with disturbing the national flow of disorder.

2) It makes the sunshine feel so much better after reading the depravity of Weasel, Waverly and Grunt.

3) It avoids the harsh light of reality.

4) It supports the growth of friendships.

5) It prevents bad hair.

6) If your life is a metaphorical outhouse, then SYM is the friendly bar down the street.

6.) only people (I think - might just be a figment of my imagination) that seem to be willing to sometimes communitcate with me (hmmm...... think that points towards the figment theory)

They are depraved? I find them very....appealing!

Does that make me depraved too?

Tamagochis would have been a lot more fun if they had screamed when you inevitably took a hammer to them...

Especially the screams from the owner of the said creature - now that would have been fun

Something to do with entropy.

Horniness.

Staring hatefully at the screen might just generate enough bad karma to make waverly stub his toe.
