Some probably wonder... what the hell am I talking about?
Well, for the last year i've been playing a experiment on you all. Originally it was only going to last about 3 months, but after a few funny "happenings" in IRC and about 10 certain members, I decided to continue it.
It started one day in IRC, when DARKgirl was asking about our ages. From then i had them play a guessing game... one of them (ZKAT8IT IIRC) had guessed my correct age, they had all known. Well a week passed after and I was idleing as usual when i was asked (not sure by whom) "How old are you, I seem to remember you saying 19". Thats where the fun began... i decided to take advantage of this... as I did have a Psychology final due, where we had to report on something we had done, to study the human psych, and include parts of things we learned through out the year. My favorite part was always the manipulation of the human mind.
So, I told whomever it was, "Yeah i'm 19". I have been this 19 for a long time now
Over the next 2 and 1/2 months or so, I had manipulated most of the people (with the exception of a certain few of the smarter... whom all we're later manipulated) into thinking I was but, 19. I started making storys, tales of my past, and other sorts of fun(although still 3/4's true most of the time, all based on my real experiences).
A little after all my data was collected.. all the logs etc... i turned in the huge report, and had recieved an A.
Well, in the end of year talk by my Psych teacher, he told us to keep studying etc... well I did. During the summer, I had posed as jobless, still keeping the storys and everything up to a rightness. School maintained after that... but my psych teacher had been fired over the summer, so there was no need to report my findings.
At this time i wanted to keep up the experiment, but I needed an excuse as to why i was gone from 8am - 3pm... so I had figured one out. My "character" had gotten a job. Which, once again, was semi true... In reality i really had a job (and still have one... 2 if you count the work i do for school district networks).
The experiment continued, with a few little hitches and F'ups along the way. My story had many holes in it... amazing how some people kept on falling for it. One included why i was connecting from a tooele county line. My story for this one, stealing it from the county at work... it pays to work with money grubbers etc...
From what i realize some did belive it.
Anyway, i could go on all day... but i'm sick of typing. Long story short, theres alot of people who we're tricked by this experiment... some took alot more work then others. And in the end, it thus more proves, who your talking to on the internet, is probably not who you think it is.

You know who I pray to? Joe Pesci. He looks like a guy who can get things done. Joe Pesci doesn't **** around. In fact, Joe Pesci came through on a couple of things that god was having trouble with.
