    Talking

    Now, I know I'm new to this forum, so maybe I've missed it, but I have never seen MegaTron "smile". Now I hold him in the highest possible respect, he is not only very knowledgable, but also very willing to help.

    But I have never once seen him smile.

    Therefore, seeing as how it's my birthday tommorrow, my lone wish is a "smile" from MegaTron (or maybe even a joke?)

    What does everyone else think? C'mon MegaTron give us a grin!

    Thanks for all the smiles, they really cheered me up.

    Nobody should be unhappy on my birthday. In fact, in the various cultures around the world that worship me, my birthday is considered a day of great celebrating and rejoicing (and not a small amount of drinking).

    Sorry, but the chances are that I won't be too happy. Lately I'm not too happy. If you want to know what's wrong, ask me, I MAY talk.

    I may seem happy on vbworld, sometimes I am, but many times, no
    Are you still upset about your parents Warmaster? I wish I could help....all I can say is that we are here for you! Let us know if you need to talk!

    Why aren't you happy Warmaster (I mean apart from the fact that you live in Ontario)

    Didn't you read earlier, everybody must be happy on the SurfDemon's birthday. It's widely considered the happiest day of the year. There will be dancing in the streets,prancing in the parks and frolicking in the fields.

    Wednesday... Great! 2 days left until the 4-day break! Easter. You all know what the true meaning behind easter is right? Christ dying for our sins and raising 3 days later.

    My granny used to come up with these mad sayings all the time, except she didn't know she was doing it.

    Though occasionally she would compe out with one that made sense.
    Such as:

    "I'm so hungry I could eat the ***** scabs off a lepers back!"

    Very apetising!
