SIGN-UPS ARE NOW CLOSED
Alright, I am bored.
And I want to do something awesome.
Line breaks are pretty cool.
I want to write letters. But I have no friends or anyone to write to. I guess I could open up a phone book and pick random people to write letters to, but I don't think most people would appreciate my high rambling. So, I come to YOU, DTF.
That's right, for a very limited time, you can be the owner of a hand written letter, personally thought out and written by ME. Also included in each letter will be a limited and extremely awesome picture that I have drawn.
WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?! ITS FREE!

(Also, I won't be able to send letters anywhere else other than the US since I am a poor college student and can't afford postage to other countries) EDIT - OK, I will mail to Canada as well.

If you want to send a letter back, please do not mail it to the return address on the label. Instead, send it to my school address because I won't be able to check my home mailbox very often.
Yeah I'm not living at school now so if you want to send me a letter back shoot me a PM and I'll give you my address.

I'm definitely up for another awesome one like the one you sent me at camp :lol

I'm not writing you another letter Sarah. You're so greedy. You know, there are kids in Africa who would LOVE to have someone write them a letter. But nooooo... everyone has a write a letter to YOU, don't they?
jk I'm gonna start yours now. :heart

WHY IS IT ALWAYS THE KIDS IN AFRICA, DAMMIT
Do they even know they don't have all this stuff?

Alright, PM me your mailing addresses. I'm not gonna send you illegal shit, anthrax, or spam your address out etc etc etc. I just finished LHK's letter/drawing and I will do the others soon.
I probably won't be mailing out the letters for another week so people can still sign up. I'll make a list up top soon listing those who are partaking... towards the end I will post the letter for everyone on the forums to read. :biggrin:

I'm down for this.

Damn, if I lived alone I would totally do this. If I got a letter written by a random guy over the internet in the mail, my parents would lose their shit and jump to conclusions. Even after I explained the situation to them, they would think you're a rapist or something.
I mean you are, but....yeah.

Aw man, you can't even mail to Canada? :'(

Yes please! PM sent.

TDoL's letter is now completed. :D
I'm gonna go in order from now on, for the most part.

I'm about to send you the PM. And hey, how about you send me Gadough's letter as well. :laugh:

OK, deadline for sign ups will be Monday, January 31 at 12:01 AM EST. It will be awhile before I actually send them out, though.

Wait, hold the fuck on. You are going to be holding back? Don't let your artistic vision get in the way of what my parents might think.
Then again, my family don't even give a fuck. Send me horse porn for all they care, as long as you don't go Unibomber on my hou...ZBomber....FUCK.
-
Yeah, don't hold back with me. I live with friends, not family, and I could care less what they think about my mail.
-
Why are other people going through your mail anyways? Family or otherwise?
-
Why are other people going through your mail anyways? Family or otherwise?
My parents don't intentionally, sometimes they just open without really looking and then when they realize it's not for them they just pretend they didn't open it. But if that happened with a drug crazed rant from some random New England-er whom they don't know they might ask some questions.
It's more of a precaution than anything.

Alright, I'm gonna mail the first batch of 4 this weekend. Once the people receive their letters, I will upload them to this thread so everyone can read them if they want.

First four letters: MAILED
LHK, TDOL, PLM, and James... please let me know when you receive your letters. Once you get them, I will upload them here so others can check them out.
Also if anyone wants to send a letter back (no one has to, just putting this disclaimer here just in case someone actually wants to) PLEASE DO NOT MAIL IT TO THE ADDRESS ON THE RETURN LABEL. I'm usually at school and would not be able to check that mail address often. If you want to send a letter back, PM me and I will give you my school mailing address.
And I finished Icy's and GL's letters.

I gotta be honest and say I wasn't too satisfied with the letter I wrote you... so I tried to think of something that would make up for it.
And then I realized... all we need is each other.
Babeh.
So I attached an awesome collage of myself.

:lol Awesome.

Dude, for real, I had a long day today (bad headache at school, and people were asking me a lot of hard calculus and number theory questions), and I came home, read your letter, and got a great laugh.
And the smiley face on the back of the envelope was the perfect "intro" to receiving your letter. :rollin

Glad it helped make your day a little better. :tup :D
I still feel kinda bad though, I didn't realize how short it was when I wrote it, so the day before I sent them out I was reading over the letters and realized I needed to include something else with your letter. Sadly that something else was a collage of me. :lol BUT YOU'RE THE ONLY PERSON SO FAR WHO HAS GOTTEN 3 PAGES. And it cost me more money because I had to print using expensive ink. So, in reality, your letter is the closest to my heart, because my wallet is always kept in my breast pocket, and I love and value money.
-
HAHA
Oh man. I am not offended in any way, it was cool to get that.
I'll work on writing you back, pen pal.
-
Because I'm much cooler than Jamesman, I let him post his letter first. But I've had mine for, like, a month now, so I figured I might as well let ZBomber post it. He's been so anxious to do so.
-
LHK - I'm sorry, I've received word that the package I sent you was actually intercepted by terrorists. Inside the package was supposed to be the uranium needed to complete your doom's day weapon. However, it seems those no good terrorists took that out, smoked the uranium, and then wrote you a letter claiming to be me. The only solution I can think of is to go back in time and make sure the terrorists do not intercept the package. The only problem is, we need to find 1.21 jiggawatts of power. You up for an adventure, buddy?

If you had said that once too me, I'd be happy, but by the third time in this fourth-rate thread I was ready to down a fifth of six-year-old Scotch on my way to seventh heaven, listening to Octavarium until nine o'clock and nervous as a tenth-grader studying for a physics exam at the eleventh hour, leaping like a lord in the 12 Days of Christmas.

Four teens killed today by LHK's post. News story at 15:00.
-
This just in, a fifth teen has been discovered underneath Jamesman's house on 16th.
-
I swear, i thought she was 18!

That would have been fine in 1920, but not these days.

A drink? Are you having a drink, also? If so, I'll have two, too.

This is getting ridiculous, and a bit childish. I turn 25 on May 26 (go look it up) this year, and I am still acting like this?

So, I was trying to figure out why Sarah hadn't received her letter yet. I went to the post office today and there her letter was, returned. When I put her delivery address on the envelope, I forgot to include the actual house number. :lol
I'll send it out this weekend or Monday. I left the other letters back at school so I won't be able to send those out until next weekend.
-
Sill working on this?

In his defense, he probably forgot due to some...memory altering activities.

Yes, I'm still doing this, I haven't forgotten. :biggrin:Just been really busy this week and haven't had too much spare time, sadly.
I'm gonna be mailing the next batch of 2-4 tomorrow/Friday. Some funny ones, imo. :lol
-
Perfectly understandable, being busy and all. Good luck and have fun writing the rest of the letters! :)
-
I can't wait to see what kind of
homoerotic sweet nothings wacky humor my letter will contain.
-
Have you mailed mine yet? I remember you saying it was ready to go out but I don't remember if you said you had actually sent it. Either way, I'm leaving Friday morning for a week in Cuba so I won't have a chance to read it until I get back.
-
The next batch of letters I'm sending today or tomorrow will be TDOL, GL, Icy, and Tripp. Maybe Lat's if I can finish it in time.
-
Sweet!

OK, sent out the letters for GL, Tripp, and Icy.
TDOL - Send me your address asap and I will have it mailed out Monday. :)

GOD DAMN IT
I just realized that I don't have the second page of Icy's letter scanned. :( My stupid scanner doesn't always scan when I hit the button, and I was trying to rush and scan everything before I sent them out. So, no second page. :( Icy, feel free to type it up/scan it if you really want to, but that's kinda time consuming so you don't have to. :lol
Anyways, page 1 and 3:

As for the rest of the letters... I have spring break next week so I'll finish the next batch then. :tup

-very unsure of how to respond to this thread in general now-
-
I dunno if I posted this or not, but school has been a bitch lately. I finished lat's letter but never sent it out, I'll try to do that soon, probably this weekend. As for the 3 or 4 remaining, I'm gonna be working on your letters, but I probably won't have them finished or mailed out until I get out of school in May.
So, yeah, slight delay on this stuff until school is done. Expect everything in the mail by mid-May. If anyone sent me their address and are going to be at a different address by May (as in people that use different addys during the school year), let me know and I will make sure I send it to the right place.
-
Take your time, there are plenty of your pictures online to keep me busy in the meantime.
-
I will cherish the letter I received from you forever.
-
Sent lat's letter out today. Included a bonus item since it took me like a year to send it out.

My plan: Try and fit as many smegma jokes onto two sheets of paper that I can.

I eagerly await your contributions to science with open arms.
Also, I'm not living at school atm, so if the return address is Worcester, PM me and I will send you my home address.
