Subscription Drive Blues?
Monday, January 12, 2009 by PoSmedley | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
Are you watching that little themometer on the front page? Are you watching how slowly it's progressing? We're almost half way through the month, ya know.
I've seen some folks posting, saying that they are subscribed until 2020 . (Which is silly, when everyone knows the world is going to end in 2012, but I digest) Well, you shouldn't think there is nothing you can do. You went that far, right? SO what is one or two more extra years. (I was only joking about the 2012 thing...I think we're all good until 2031. At least that's what the little man who lives in my thumb tells me.)
What I am trying to say is this. You subscribed for a reason. Presumably it was many reasons and all good. Most of you probably even did so without being under the influence of alcohol or mind altering druggggg gg gs. You liked the site. You liked everything about it enough to shell out whatever you could dig out of your kids piggy bank, you're wife's slush fund, or your momma's nest egg. Well, you...YOU can help preserve some of what you liked about the site and assist in keeping it a 'community' oriented site as opposed to a 'commercial' site as has been layed out by Brad.
And there are lots of ways you can do this. Like I mentioned, add on to what you already have accumulated in your subscription. Force Brad to keep it going until 2069. (The little man that lives in my thumb says it's possible) Maybe you plan to rejoin with the mothership in 2015? No worries. Buy a subscription for the subordinate that you designate to stay behind!
You can buy a subscription for the future skinners in your family! Honestly, it's a cold hard world out there. DO you really want to send them off to college and life after that when they can sit in the safety of your home...forever...and skin with you while you both eat Cherry Garcia and watch House between skins? Don't let these Kodak moments get away from you!
By a subscription for your spouse! Do it! The wives need to back off the reality shows and as for the husbands...Baseball is all but dead and the SPike channel sucks, they just don't know it yet.
Buy a subscription for your boss! Then, when he's hooked, he can't get on you about all the time YOU spend on the site.
C'mon folks! You gotta use your noggins! Buy a subscription for Uncle Bernie who keeps sending you all that 'PLEASE READ' and "MUST READ" crap email, sometimes 16 of them a day. Get him hooked on Wincustomize!
Whatever you do, just don't think because you're subscribed for the next decade that you can't do any more. You can! Go another decade!!!!
Help to keep the site community oriented!!!!
Of course, if you're not comfortable buying a subscription for your spouse or boss...if you feel adding another year to your own subscription is just to capitalistic or someone might point at you and say that it's just overkill, I am willing to make the ultimate sacrifice and offer my services as a recipiant of a subscription. Yes, that's right. I have purposely let mine lapse, just so I can take the burden from you, brothers and sisters. You can buy me a subscription. Any one who wants to. All of you who just can't decide how you can help preserve the Community that is Wincustomize. Don't worry. You can't hurt me or offend me by buying me a subscription. And don't think that because someone else may have already bought me one that means you still can't. I'm willing to take on as many subscriptions as I need to, to help as many of you as I can. So just subscribe away. I can handle it. I'm your Po'. I'm here for you. I WANT to do this for YOU. SO go ahead...anyone...ALL of you...buy your Po' a subscription. DO it now. Help keep Wincustomize 'community' oriented.
You don't even need to thank me. You can do it anonymously. It will be our little secret. I'll stand in the fire with you. I'll take that bullet.
Preserve what you have subscribed to for the next year or ten years. Subscribe now!

I spelled 'digest' correctly. The little man that lives in my thumb says 'Bite me!'

It's not a hole. I like to think of it as my Fortress of Solitude.

Thought you wanted company, but I guess I was wrong
Also from Wikipedia
"Still others (e.g. monks) regard long-term solitude as a means of spiritual enlightenment."
Call me "Father Po'".

Naaah...I like Pope Po (pronounced Po-po) .... and I was only commenting on the unbelievable....not the way you spelled "digest".
Looks like someone needs more "Make Me Laugh"?

Actually, I am trying to learn to self-medicate and make my own laughter, as it were. This is my first attempt.
