So, I don't think anyone know just how long I've been here despite only being like 16 in three days. So, here's my fucking lame-o origins story.
It was actually my dad who found Newgrounds when I was like six, because he had found Dad 'n' Me on some shit flashgame site called "heavygames" or something wacky. I actually remember a bonding moment between us being him picking up the poor animated kids and throwing them into traffic and us laughing like a bunch of sadists as they went flying. Afterwards, first thing my dad says to me is to never tell my mom about it and to never to play this. So, of course, as a rebellious six/seven year old kid decided "FUCK PARENTS" and hopped right on and accidentally clicked on the link to NG instead.
I was immediately thrown into a world of murdering Powerpuff Girls, shitting on things, swearing, and just more violence. My pure child-like mind was filled with wonder and confusion at this beautiful monster. I just kinda played flash games on and off up until '09 when I finally decided to actually make an account and be a dedicated member of NG. The story beyond that point can be seen in the cringe compilation that are my old forum posts and art section.
In short, I've been here since '06 when I was only about 7 and Newgrounds is basically a huge part of who I am now. It fucked me up as an already weird kid, but helped me grow into someone who ain't half-bad at that art and comedy thing and is actually planning to go into college for animation.
I might start uploading art on the forums too since the art portal set-up is weird, butwhatever.
HAPPY PICO DAY, YOU GLORIOUS BASTARDS.

I was able to to discover that combining this Vanilla Ice song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R_K6971WmAs with the video from just about any music video makes it a rap music video.
Go try it yourself.

Okay, so a certain post on the Newgrounds BBS made me take a closer look at just how horrifying I was as a nine-year-old kid. I almost feel like apologizing for some of the stupid shit I did. Like, I'm so sorry for all the disgustingly homophobic stuff I said and the weird anime shizz I was trying to get others to draw for me. I thought my art was bad, but looking at the stuff I used to post on the forum, I really feel the need to clarify that I'm an entirely different person.
My apologies, Newgrounds of 2009-2010.
