Dropping the fonts for IC/OOC posts…just presume OOC unless I say otherwise.
If this is not the appropriate place to ask these questions, I beg forgiveness of anyone I offend. I mean neither to pry into other’s lives, first or second, nor to go where I am not wanted. Doing so socially was a frequent error during my first life childhood.
After listening to the most recent posted episode of The Milk ‘N’ Kookies Show, (their first episode from the KIC,) with the parting interview from Arctic Noel…I am TOTALLY lost…
I got the first letter they read at the beginning of the month, figured, “OK, whatever,” and didn’t think much of it. Then in this most recent episode, they played Arctic reading a letter he wrote to a friend. (Not sure if it’s the same Paulo {sp?} who DJs at the Vortex or not, but that’s the only kid avatar by that name that I know of. If it is one and the same person, does anything that has recently transpired have to do with why I’ve seen so little of him at the Vortex as of late?) Arctic stated that if his first life parents heard the interview, they might not be happy with it, but I can’t fathom why. Arctic was generic enough I’d think his parents couldn’t object that much. Well, he was generic enough to leave me more baffled and confused than I was before the interview. What was Arctic looking for in Second Life, where does Paulo fit in, and…oi… Koffeekid said before running that interview that we’d understand afterwards why he chose not to edit it, but I don’t understand what the heck happened, though the only part I would have edited anyway was one particularly long stretch of silence.
Okay, do I have a few hunches? Yeah. Would I post them here? No; that would be rude. Do I feel comfortable just contacting Arctic on YIM and asking him myself? No; I’d never heard of the man until MnK read his departure letter, and I’ve never met him personally, despite the curiosity I now have. (I was tempted to combine this post with a post about me, socializing, friends in SL, and such, but I’ll make that a separate post.)
So…..yeah…I’m lost…and in some ways I felt that the other kid avs all got it…I hated feeling left out as a first life kid and I can’t say I’m much fonder of it as a first life adult or Second Life kid. =-\
If it would still be respectful towards Arctic (and Paulo and whoever else is involved) for someone to enlighten me, (or crud, better still, if Arctic himself somehow found this, though I doubt that,) but not respectful to just post it as a comment on a blog post, I set up an e-mail account for this avatar (keeps my e-mail organized,) at janet DOT rothmanay AT DON’T_EVEN_THINK_OF_SPAMMING_ME_YOU_WRETCHED_BOTS g m ail DOT c o m I think any real human being (or its avatar) can figure out how to translate that to a real address. ^_~
And yes, I did debate making this post, but I felt even more awkward and rude at the thought of messaging, in-game, someone like Koffekid who would know, but whom I barely know about it. =-\ Again, take all my apologies for any offense I cause and then double it.
