    Just going to shamelessly paste this one for the memories

     hey, if you type in your pw, it will show as stars

     oh, really?  
     Absolutely  
     you can go hunter2 my hunter2-ing hunter2  
     haha, does that look funny to you?  
     lol, yes. See, when YOU type hunter2, it shows to us as *******  
     thats neat, I didnt know IRC did that  
     yep, no matter how many times you type hunter2, it will show to us as *******

     er, I just copy pasted YOUR ******'s and it appears to YOU as hunter2 cause its your pw  
     oh, ok.

  • Don’t try, just write in it whenever you feel like it: congratulations! You have a diary! That could be several times a day, or once a month, depending what you need and want out of your diary. But realistically if you’re just starting out it will probably be diary meta, like about the writing you’re doing in the diary lol.

    For me I find it useful for

    • jotting media reviews.
    • nurturing my stationary fetish.
    • an excuse to practice my cursive.
    • relaxing at the end of the day, or week.
    • reading over to gain insights into my moods (like how I was always sad after drinking)
    • purging “negative” feelings (anger, insecurity, etc) - just get them out of my head and on to a page.

    Anyway, here’s an example of me just talking about Quake 2 and having trouble focusing at work:

    a handwritten diary entry describing playing Quake 2 and having trouble focusing at work - if you want a full transcript message me and I'll update this alt text to include it

    At the end of the day, I just like making marks on the page.
