    Depends, if it's a phone for example then --- technology --- stand alone video (can be a series too though) --- review.

    It started when CT contacted jessers about starting a community to replace MTG, so jessers did all the work and CT took all the credit.

    • MTG got put up for sale on Flippa
    • I tried to purchase MTG
    • I failed (thank God)
    • MTG got sold to some anonymous lady who killed it (no more than 5-6 people could connect to the site at any given time lmao)
    • I made my own site (shout out to @jessers - the original beta tester)
    • MTG got sold again to some Russian dude
    • It was too late, I had already force fed everyone special Koolaid.

    I never knew why my teachers were all so sad when they realized I had my own housekey because I went home alone when I was 6. I also never fully realized why all the nice folks kept dropping by my house to ask if my daddy or mommy ever made me lunch or if my daddy drank a lot? I was fucking oblivious and thought I was basically a pimp of the highest order for having my own damn housekey.

    She has other people, but she likes to collect em and make them dependant. She divorced his dad, and complains about how he's always showing up and bothering her- but yet she stops by his crazy person trailer, pick up his meds, and all this shit. NO WONDER WHY HE WON'T LEAVE YOU ALONE! She's ran off every single gf Matt had, usually within a month, and I don't think it's a coincidence that Matt's half sister moved far away and rejected their mom's attempts to move closer to her. That's when she got wayyy more clingy with Matt.

    I was the only person who remembered Mother's day this year, and she proceeded to mock the very expensive flowers I sent her, assuming they weren't from me in the first place. I was late on her birthday by a week and she told Matt how I'm an insensitive Grinch, Matt and his sister forgot that too.

    I'm honestly just getting too old to deal with this type of bullshit anymore.

    Little man is 2 months old today! His mouth is all healed up, eating is better and tummy troubles are improving. We figured out some food sensitivities so I just had to cut some things from my diet. He weighs 10 lbs now!

    A little dull but it can be beefed up.

    Once upon a time, a very special little boy was born in late December on a cold winter's night—

    "You mean Jesus?"

    No, Jesus was probably born in the spring and the Dec. 25th thing comes from an ancient Jewish tradition that a holy man would die on the same day he was born, among other things. We're talking about CT. Now please be quiet so we can continue—

    "Isn't he from the south? I doubt it was actually that cold."

    WHO EVEN LET YOU IN HERE

    Actually, to correct my post, I guess it wasn't really my last IL payout. @Randomacts was shirtposting with me on Reddit the other day when I found a tiny spare payout sitting around in one of my accounts while trying to prove something to someone.

    But basically I went from zero-effort ballin to scrounging for pennies around the time this forum was created. Money pressures from that contributed to a split with the GF (we were already strained when her mom and grandma died just months prior), and I moved to the other side of the state, away from my daughter, to room with my brother because rent was affordable near Idaho.

    Then a few months after that, ended up sleeping in a car, getting back with GF/daughter, then staying in an RV, now an apartment again. That's the essence of the story. mTurk helped me get back on my feet after I lost just about everything.

    @ChrisTurk banned me forever ago from this forum and I have no idea why he let me back. This account I created here wasn't even meant to make it past the approval process, so now I'm stuck with this dumb name. Lol.

    I like the reddit/facebook theory personally:

    I secretly hacked MTG and subversively stole the entire user base because I'm some sort of mTurk evil mastermind who is just here for the ludicrous amounts of donation money $$$ and how now I ban all the l33t scripters to keep their l33t scripts from going live to help all the poor disenfranchised Turkers and its totally not the fact they're mild sociopaths, liars, and horribly annoying people.

    Pay no mind to the fact I'd probably make more money jerking myself off with low grit sandpaper on Twitch than doing anything for the mTurk community. I'm totes here for the world domination.

    I appreciate that you're trying but regret to inform you that this particular imagery is not making it into my dramatic retelling; I do have standards
