warm fuzzy feeling toward all of you. I know we've had our disagreements in the past and despite my efforts to be kind and reasonable and avoid hurtful words or incredibly thinly veiled personal attacks during discussions of your dumpster fire political and religious opinions I have somehow managed to make a few frenemies on the board.

but as the cleansing fires of big 12 membership (inshallah cuz you guys know I love muslims and hate america) wash over cougar nation, I just want to say that I forgive all those of you who have slighted me, questioned my omniscience, or called me condescending for reasons I still can't begin to comprehend. geez, you guys really can be dense sometimes.

I invite everyone on cb to do the same. let's have one big digital group hug, but not the kind where any dudes have to touch other dudes' butts or anything (is that a thing? I feel like if there's a huge group hug involving thousands of people, there's gonna be some inadvertent "inseam" to "seat" contact, but since this is the internet I feel like we can just gloss over that).

god bless us everyone, and when we inevitably don't get in, I hope you'll all know that it was your mean boardmail and not not getting into the b12 that drove me to throw myself off that freeway overpass onto that bus full of schoolchildren on their way to hershey park.
