Its the last day of the month....

[H3_VX]

As soon as I can spare $20 I will donate. I agree that $20 a year is not much, but too many things have come up for me lately to be able to pitch in. Patience young jedi. I was actually planning on making a donation in September until my wife got pneumonia. I need the money for pharmacy visits now. I'll try to send my $20 in October. I seriously appreciate whoever keeps this site up.

Ya know what Dub.....

.....I get your UBER donation thing.

I REALLY agree with you on that...REALLY!

I Don't get it...seriously......I DONT GET IT......

BUT..whatever...we thrive because of THIS SITE.

Let me repeat....WE THRIVE BECAUSE OF THIS SITE.


But..apparently we have to be a TAD circumspect ...
...on our nudge/poke/WTF..how CAN YOU NOT DONATE.....!

....$20 a year for ALL THE INFO you get.

OMG..seriously!!


Yea..I crossed the "NO DEBATE" line....My bad.

BUT.....its a no BRAIN'ER.

$120 this month raised...$300 REQUIRED.

..
...Ya all wanna log on and see a blank page........NO!!!

Side Bar....Scott/Moncha has....would not, never will solicite funds.
BUT..that dont mean this is a FREEBIE!

So...if I/we pisss people off by asking for donations......

.
..SO BE IT !

I get WAY more than $20 a years worth from this site.....

...and maybe even GIVE back $20 bucks of input.


This site is a HAVEN for VX fanatics....


....please...support it.

WELL SAID BRO...

I seriously appreciate whoever keeps this site up.

That's the be$t part...since Da Boss accepts no $ from outside adverts, we ALL have the chance/privilege to contribute to the financial upkeep of this site...

I dunno bout all the rest of y'all, but doing my part always makes me feel good......or maybe THIS is a more appropriate "feel good" smilie for me...
The concept of contributing to something bigger than oneself appeals to me.

In return, we get to share info & learn from each others experiences, without having to wade through ads for tires/batteries/accessories/etc.

I think I hear it coming...

It's obvious that, even after so many similar discussions on the subject, some of you still aren't self-aware enough to even realize when you're doing what you say you're not doing.

Seriously, making posts like the ones in this thread then feigning ignorance about coming across as self-aggrandizing?

It's no wonder human progress occurs so slowly.

And I can do that too.

I could have easily predicted that we hadn't seen the last of these types of self-aggrandizing threads.

I needed to look up self-aggrandizing. LOL!

That's ok, we realize you're relatively new here. Take your time.

self-ag·gran·dize
? ?[self-uh-gran-diz, self-] Show IPA

noun

increase of one's own power, wealth, etc., usually aggressively

==========



I am at a loss to fathom how my own power is bolstered..
...and giving $20 hardly increases my wealth.
As for aggressively......OH PUH-LEASE.......a list of those that benefit from,
but don't donate $20 to this site....would be aggressive

This is a kid gloved 'nudge'...and frankly those that feel their posting input
(or other warped rationale ) somehow excuses them from an actual
monetary donation, are in reality, the ones afflicted with a large dose
of self aggrandizement

Lets face it,...at anywhere between 10-18 MPG, and given the costs involved/gas mileage etc......

......nobody that owns a VX should begrudge a mere $20 to help maintain this awesome site.

The COOL part is...I think he referred to us as humans...sort of...WOO-HOO...

Well...uhhhhhhh...neener-neener-neener then...

You should take your insanely massive powers of prediction & make some money in the market...

Maybe start out slowly, with some penny stocks.

So...one comment from me results in all that? Kind of rules out any notion of self-aggrandizing on my part doesn't it.

Something else you all might want to look up is "self-fulfilling prophecy". Some of you know full well what posting the same old types of comments in these threads will result in, yet you do it anyway and then feign ignorance. As I said though, it's not that hard to predict. An apparent need for drama is an all-to-common affliction these days...just look at the amount of "unscripted" television available today and all the people who can't seem to live without it.

[JoFotoz]

Say what..

I would suggest that predicting your reply is the diametric opposite of feigning ignorance.
