"I will no longer be posting here or on any other message boards. My time on the internet is over."

Sounds like a New Year's resolution.

Well, i could understand sacraficing the internet in order to get things going in real life. For the Flying Omelette, it would be much more difficult to adjust to that lifestyle as it would for someone like me who doesn't use the internet as often. But...FO has almost 7000 posts on this bored!! To just get up and leave the internet must be an extremely difficult change to be commited to!! If FO decides to ditch the internet i would imagine her declining her internet usage gradually rather than just terminating it immediately.

"I also think that things are better off without me, anyway."

That's funny...i guess that's something said out of frustration or something of a momentary self examination that failed to focus on any accomplishments that made this bored a better place...

Each time a significant and acceptable figure leaves the bored, the bored seems to lose its meaning more and more.
