absoluteUnit

Check out the size of this lad
I’m a big boy (5’9” 280) and I thought the absolute unit meme was funny. I like to laugh at myself, but I’ve still got high self esteem. I don’t give a shit about what people think about me

 
The site was originally called Crootn and the guy that helped me get everything started created my account. I’ve never been a huge fan of it, but I believe in tradition.

Generally I go by @shiv. Last name is Shirley, but I have terrible handwriting and someone read the name as Shivley one time, so people started calling me Shiv
 
My username is inspired by all those who became so enraged/distressed at Trump winning in 2016. Specifically the following quote:

This was left on my car at work. I'm literally shaking right now. I'm not sure if I can even. I fear for my life in #TrumpAmerica.

I changed Literally to Laterally at the last moment to emulate the specific dialect I expect one who might be "literally shaking" would use while speaking.

The selection of this username was a long and thought out process taking at least 2-5 seconds.

It was for Richmond, Virginia when I lived their ages ago

I would really like to change it

Then I would like my little name to also say, formally known as RVA, or the AKA Rva, but I would also like to keep going on the fact that I’ve been here longer than most of here and on the main board thread.
And despite my problems using talk to text resulting in many grammar errors, I am still better 99.6 of you at posting.
Isn’t that the survival rate of Covid as well, 99.6?
 
Who is Ole Ted & what is “the Main Board”?
The main board or tmb is actually more your pace. Imagine how needy you are to engage people…times 1000 from all views and positions. It gets crazy with the amount of posts, replies, funny stuff, etc.
You would easily get 100 likes on a post.

I left because this board was started and I was too addicted to tmb. Realized I needed something more laid back and slower pace, not as many people trying to have discourse.

I think I’d rather build this place up. Plus I’m pretty sure the purpose of this website is discussion since it says at much in the header.
