These are fantastic, Birks. Kudos.

I have seen the light...

I'm adding that to the Hahli review vid, along with some other footage.

Agree with the Xaegermeister, it was great fun!

10/10, would visit BrickFair again.

ALL OF THE INSIDE JOKES

It was a pretty tippy toppers call.

Also it apparently lasted 1 hr and 19 mins

Nice meeting you too!

FOUR FOR YOU, SUMIKI! YOU GO, SUMIKI!

i creyed

But there'll be many more BerkFers, and even more opportunities to chat and meet up and stuff!

I too am bringing a myriad of hats. And the hatpile shall grow, and it shall be glorious.

YOU'LL BE WEARING A HATPILE AFTER BRICKFAIR?!?!

 

WHAT MANNER OF HERESY IS THIS

Hat-heresy.

I have to go to the gym (UGH BEING HEALTHY AND STUFF UGH) from 11 to 12, but after that I will totes mah goats meet up with y'alls again. They have an awesome exhibition on the Human Genome Project at the Museum of Natural History that is simply fanTAStic.

 

DISREGARD MUSCULAR ANATOMY, ACQUIRE GENOME KNOWLEDGE

BUT WITH A LACK OF MUSCULAR STRENGTH, HOW WILL I WEAR ALL THESE HATS?!

Yeah, either start with Nine's tenure, or with the episode "Blink" to get you hooked on.

Please someday post his full theory of the slantness of the universe, or however it is it went.

Curses.

You make us vertically challenged people sadfaec.

The Zatthman is pleased with having participated in celebrating the berfday of the one they call Brickeens.

Birk, unless curling up into a ball makes the sadness go away and insteaad puts at least a smile on your face, don't do it.

The world'll be bleak if my pal Brickeens spends his time in it curled up in a ball.

But in all seriousness, as everyone above has said, we're here for you, even if you just want to talk about the weather or MOCs or other topics to get your mind off any worries you may have.

 

 

I get what you are all saying, but keep in mind: these girls are going out with me.Zatth.Have you seen me?

Just make your face. You know the one I mean.

I can already hear the gals swooning!

Don't forget the hats!

Sumiks, I will be wearing ALL THE HATS.

CALL OF DUTY: MODERN WARFUR

Come on, Xareax, you gotta be kitten me.

Paws for a second and think about what would even claws you to make a joke like that.

I mean really, fur crying out loud.

It breaks my heart to think that I was lucky enough to have a friend who (metaphorically) slapped me in the face the day before cutting myself and examined my wrists for a week to make sure I hadn't. We're all here for you, but I wish we could've been there to help you through it.

Still, what's done is done and what happens happens for a reason. The important part is that we are all here for you, wishing you well, and knowing things will get better.

Supposedly people with chronic illnesses (like me) have their own equivalent of the "5 Stages of Death" that they go through, and I spent a good part of 2012 going through the Depression stage of it. Only a month ago did I emerge into what seems the Acceptance stage, and I still had to take anti-anxiety pills to get there.

So hey, I do judge you. I judge you like this: rather than try to end it all because life seems to suck, you keep on trudging along, no matter how tough and black the future seems. You did what any sensible person would do, which is try to alleviate their pain. But you didn't take the coward's way out and end it all. You took, and take, the courageous path by standing up to fate and deciding to keep on living every day, no matter what it throws at you.

I know, like the others, I can only offer words of consolation, but I know that those words, coupled with the support of your friends and family, as well as psychological treatment will help out.

In closing, I can only offer a quote by my historical figure Abraham Lincoln: "Must is the word. I know not how to aid you, save in the assurance of one of mature age, and much severe experience, that you cannot fail if you resolutely determine that you will not."

We're here for you whenever you need us, Birks.

I didn't know there was a trailer until I saw this entry, so I went out and watched it. Very disappointing.

 

I think the only way they could salvage it was if that was the only real 'action' in the entire movie and everything else was from the perspective of after the war looking back.

 

The book is really amazing and I highly recommend it. It actually brought tears to my eyes at one point, which I doubt the movie will do, unless it's crying from how bad it is.

Yeah, my opinion is that the only way it could be filmed in any way whatsoever would be as a TV mini-series, to explore all of the complex themes.

And yes, the movie will probably bring tears to our eyes... because of how disappointing it could be.
