"Oh mate... As I said, Aussies suck at advertising. XD *Pats Tom on the back for a good effort*. Thanks for coming by and commenting, mate!" - Sebastyne

"... and that is because there's a lot of people who are not comfortable with the whole online thing. I'm glad my Bdollers don't mind people reading, they have more of a problem with under aged people posting, so now I'm checking people's ages... However, I'm thinking I'm getting rid of that rule, it's just too much of a bother. Maybe I'll just force people to post on the introductions forum first before allowing them in other areas." - Sebastyne

"Well, it's understandable people would feel that as ABC Doll Club has existed long before the forum ever did, so people know each other already... And also consists of a lot of people who aren't used to the form of communication and therefore keep in their own comfort zone a lot - not engaging the new people. You've done a great job, even though the requirement to register might seem standoffish, especially as you can't read anything before registering, so you don't have any idea what you sign up for. (There is an option that you can stop guest/newbie posting even though they still would be able to read, btw.)" - Sebastyne

"Well, they haven't exactly responded to me directly, as you can see from the lack of comments. I was just making a general point about how trying to "fight" religion with logic is futile because of the instalment of belief that anyone who tries to sway your unconditional/no questions asked -faith works for the devil. If it's insulting, fine. It's no more insulting than them telling me I'm a whore for living my life according to my own beliefs, is it?" - Sebastyne

We all have been told a million times how to behave when you’re on a discussion board. There are some very common practises that admins do though, that are driving me crazy, and kill any wish to participate into a discussion. That is why I mainly run my own discussion boards, because I can easily [...] - Sebastyne

"Sorry I was commenting while logged into Facebook, which I didn't intend to do." - Sebastyne

My Twitter keyword alerts tell me when something interesting happen in the world of childfree people. Lately it’s been all about Two Is Enough, I’m sure you all know about it if you are childfree and haven’t lived under a rock. Anyway, this one article based on Two Is Enough, kind of surprised me well [...] - Sebastyne

WOW! Studies show that one third of people who have children regret having them to some degree. On the other hand, there is no wide spread regret of a decision on NOT TO have children amongst the childless by choice. - Sebastyne

Why is it called "wag world" if it only shows/allows places in USA? I do hate it when americans think they are the whole freaking world... - Sebastyne

Why has this been stumbled? A poor rating with no real message. Bah! Away! - Sebastyne

Not saying that I was UNUSUALLY beautiful single girl, but I was beautiful enough to know that all this is true. I got sick of compliments, men who would just follow me around like lost puppies... And instantly want a permanent relationship with me after I gave them a time of day - or night, more to the point. And I got INSTANTLY obsessed with guys who did not really pay attention to my beauty, or treated it like it was given, like a minimum requirement to get in the door. We don't want to be loved because of our beauty, we want to be accepted for our beauty and loved because of who we are. (And you don't have to be a professional model to tell when a guy is full of it.) - Sebastyne

I would have put a weird spin on that one - I hate marshmellows, always have, so the only way you could have made me eat one while waiting was to threat me that I would have to eat two after the reasearcher comes back. Ewk. However, give me a piece of chocolate... Now THAT's a temptation. (Why is this tagged under "writing"? Has nothing to do with writing?) - Sebastyne

There ARE do's and don'ts to online dating, but some of these were just plain nitpicky. I especially strongly disagree with point 2 about Kodak moments. If a guy enjoys photography, he has the fucking right to show off his work! Agreed, he should have photos of himself there as well, but if someone deletes his message simply because he has ADDED scenic photos in his profile deserve to stay single and die alone if you ask me. - Sebastyne

How do you climb a wall with just one hand, even if you were a freakish snake? The snake in the photo doesn't look beaten up, nor is it on a bedroom floor, where it should end up after the attack. It's also not in a jar of alcohol, where the story says it ended up in. Too many holes in the story. Was it published on 1st of April by any chance? - Sebastyne

Antaa hyvän kuvan siitä, mitä todellinen narsismi on, kun monet kuvittelevat sen olevan sitä että tykkää peilikuvastaan... - Sebastyne

Now, learn to update your Facebook status in this manner, and somebody might actually care! (Just joking, of COURSE we care...) - Sebastyne

You got to love Australia. Somehow, their modesty just doesn’t seem proportional. I mean, they have stuff here that normally would be regarded as the 8th miracle of the word, but here, they brush it off and bury it somewhere in the outback and go: “It’s interesting, but nothing to brag about.” Now the Australian  Trade [...] - Sebastyne

Any doll fan should go and see this one. Amazing doll house project in 1:6 scale - that's Barbie size! *yey* I wish I had the money / space / talent for that... - Sebastyne

This post was so good, that I'm afraid of navigating away from the page. And that, my friends, is saying a lot. - Sebastyne

Sometimes, no matter how brilliant the art is, the first thought I get is: "This guy has way too much time in his hands." I know... It's brilliant but the time it took to make.. Again and again! - Sebastyne

Yet another story of a childfree woman who finds the society pressuring her into having children. - Sebastyne

"Oh yes, Barbie is definitely not "just a doll". Each one has a personality - some of them you like, some you don't, and some you just love. It has been a while since I wrote this post, and currently these two are my absolute favorites, no question about it. :)" - Sebastyne

When I first started using Google back in the day when there still was an alternative and my mother-in-law wouldn’t have asked the question “If I want to open an internet connection, I have to contact Google, right?” I started using it for the reason that it ignored meta-tags and searched the page content only.

Some very solid tips on how to find the right guy. This can be applied to online as well, instead of hanging out on dating sites (unless they're really well designed) you should try to find a site that focuses on something you enjoy AND has an Off Topic -forum. - Sebastyne

"It must have been, because it didn't sound like you got my point at all. It's not that I'm afraid of enjoying one thing, it's that I'm afraid that if I enjoy this thing, I can't ever find time to enjoy that other thing, but I'm forced to enjoy this one thing for the rest of my life. Like a person who fears a relationship would say: "I love her, but I love other women, too. How can I choose just one woman and know I won't want to be with someone else?" Or what the said commitment phobic would say to explain this: "It's like having to choose one meal for the rest of your life."" - Sebastyne

But unlike most commitment phobics, I have no fear of relationships. I have a fear of carreer choises. As you know, I’ve been doing this start up with my bridal fashion design business for some time now, until suddenly I shut down. I simply could not even think about wedding dresses without feeling trapped by [...] - Sebastyne

"Well, sometimes you kind of do. If you've been in love a number of times, and gotten married and are very happy and at 33 you still have never wanted kids, it's pretty safe to say it's not going to happen. I've gotten over the above too, so things are back to normal..." - Sebastyne

When I was 17, I decided nobody would be able to put me into a box based on what I wore. They couldn’t look at me and say “she’s one of us” because I wore the same uniform. When I was past my 20’s, I decided not to believe in a God that people defined [...] - Sebastyne

"Exactly my point. Sub cultures LIMIT your individuality instead of making it stronger. You may look different to the general masses, but what you are allowed to like and spend time on inside the group is far from being "yourself". It doesn't even limit you to the style of music, for example, but you have to like the right bands to be taken seriously. You have to read the right authors and so forth and so forth. And by golly, collecting Barbie would totally make you a conformist that support destruction of nature and multi-cultural brand. *Shunned*" - Sebastyne

"In the example of something in your teeth the situation is different. Sure it can be a bit embarrassing finding out you have stuff on your teeth, but there was no way for you to know that without help. Even if you were a genius, you wouldn't know and a moron could point it out to you that "you have something in your teeth." Regardless, the pain it may cause is very short term and most people should be able to cope with it. And yes. You should let a friend continue doing something badly, if they don't seem concerned about how they do it - unless there is a risk of them injuring themselves (like at a gym). You could offer your help, by simply asking if you can help them with that, and if they say they're fine, just accept it. (You can add "you sure?" if you doubt that they just don't want to bother you, but even then, you probably will get an answer that they're sure.) Another way to go about it is to go around it. Let's go back to the gym example, take someone with you who hasn't been..." - Sebastyne
