Dearest Xanga
This is going to be one of my last posts as AvenueToTheReal.
So, dear readers, I know some of you might be shocked by this news, and are sad, whereas others are overjoyed. Then there are other people who don't really care. Whichever category you fall into, you should know that I didn't come to this decision lightly or suddenly.
I've been considering retiring this blog for some time, but didn't really know the proper way to do so. Even though I posted very sparingly throughout last year, I decided very recently to deliver a few more low-quality humor posts before hanging up my shoes on the telephone wire. I guess you could consider this to be my encore performance, that is, if there were a stage or if I had an instrument. I guess really, my main instrument is love, because that just sounds deep.
This isn't my last post, though! I've got like five more, and then you'll finally be rid of me!
I guess I should also say that this isn't a hoax. Once *I* go to the bathroom, I'm not coming back out. I also personally wish that someone would make a like a food tube that goes to the bathroom so that you would never have to leave. I also wish that someone would invent a machine that converts nuclear waste into cheese, but that's not important right now. What's important is that I'm not pretending to have cancer.
The reason for my decision has several reasons:
1. I need to free up as much time as possible to practice doodling unicorns.
2. I left the shower on and I need to go turn it off.
3. I need to find a new job after being fired for sneaking into the men's bathroom to poop in the stalls.
4. I am retiring from politics to spend more time with my family.
5. To pursue my modeling career.
6. To protest China's occupation of Tibet. Cut it out, you guys.
7. The Zombie Apocalypse is about to occur and I need to flee my home.
Darn it! You've made this really hard by telling me that you like my writing and calling me your favorite blogger. Actually, 99.9% of the people on Xanga have been really amazing and awesome, and because of everyone, it made me believe in magic again. You didn't make me any less eccentric, but that's okay, you made me see that being different actually is good. I was able to learn a lot about life, people and other classified stuff from you all.
To the 0.01% of people who cut themselves and cry like little emo babies every time I post, I posted a picture of a sandwich, and it still got more comments than what you get in a week, which, once again, makes me the biggest winner of all. Also, your poetry sucks and you all are terrible writers. If you think you're a great writer, then I have news for you: You have to be dead to be a great writer, or at least, be as good as dead because you live in a cabin where you have no contact with the outside world and refuse to let anyone turn your novel into a movie. I doubt you even own a cabin.
I'll cover the rest of my thoughts on this in my final post, which will be posted sometime next week, and it's going to be a doozy! It's going to be a long post, so it might be time to bust out the reading glasses and/or 3-D glasses, because it will available in 3-D!

3-D FTW!
So.. you *haven't* returned to Xanga.
Aww ma is this how it really ends?
@SoapAndShampoo - Remember how Jesus came back but then left right away? This is sort of like that, except I'm not Jesus.
I'll miss you, but I understand the importance of the impending zombie apocalypse, as I am the one who created the virus
cheers and good luck.
I remember when your blog was ginormously big on xanga. When I had a different account. You're hilarious, don't let that humor die, and I'm happy to say that you always made me laugh with your posts.
But why is it that everyone that once was very big on xanga is leaving....do you remember wherethefishlives?
@AvenueToTheReal - And to where you go, we may not follow. I assume.
Well, I support your decision. Much in the way a hippie supports their son joining the military, or a Republican politician from Alabama supports their lesbian daughter having an abortion. There's nothing I can do about it, so I may as well support it.
Life is hard.
@ourblasphemousrumors - I do remember him. He wasn't around very long, but was funny.
@AvenueToTheReal - Yes, very funny. From Xanganizer to his funny ms paint illustrations; I miss him and his posts.
So you came back for four posts but now you are taking 5 posts dedicated to you leaving?
Way to make my depression worse Nori. Maybe now is a good time for me to die.
Are you feeling guilty yet?????
Keep it reel, Nori. Xanga was awesome for a while, but I think the good days are gone.
No don't go! We need someone here to help us psychos here keep our insanity!
@AvenueToTheReal - Best. Comment. EVER.
We need smart-asses!
I just want you to know that our time together has been adequate.
@TheTheologiansCafe - All the posts I've written recently were my last ones. I knew that from the get-go, I just didn't say anything.
@ETCACTOR - Maybe instead, it's a good time for you to live!
@DrugInducedDuck - I will most certainly keep it real, yo.
So if you go, will you come back as amandasbiggestfan? haha.
You can't leave, I can't be the only funny girl here, don't leave me alone!
You can't leave! I LOVE YOU! D:
How dare you make fun of my poetry.
Here, a haiku:
---
Please go fuck yourself
In the darkest corner of,
with your sandwich pic.
---
Sounds pretty fantastic to me.
Yeah, it's time to move on!
You know, everytime you came back, I wasn't ever really bummed out about you leaving because I knew you'd come back. You're not coming back this time and that REALLY sucks.
I get the whole 5 part going away posts. You're splitting up your final chapter the same way they split up the last twilight book into two movies. It's SO epic, it has to be spread out!
(Yes, I did just compare you to twilight)
you're retiring, or you're retiring the screenname? omg, please clarify.
if you're leaving, i will miss you, the sandwich, and having no clue how you really look. O.o
So is this more like a Michael Jordan leaving, a Beatles leaving, a Rocky Balboa leaving, a George Washington leaving, a Nixon leaving, a Kurt Cobain leaving, or an Old Yeller leaving?
.................but your so funny
Free Tibet!
BUT I LOVE YOU! D:
You will be missed old friend. I'm not on here much myself but I'm glad I was on today to see this.
Another disheartening tale of a xangan blogger who shouldn't leave because of the entertainment and joy they bring.
Though with your writing skills you could [or already have gone much further & is already making hoardes of money.
Next time come back with an IPAD (or something better than IPAD) on your head!!
@TheBigShowAtUD - *I'M* retiring. I can't say for 100% that I'll never ever blog again, let alone on Xanga, just not in the foreseeable future.
@methodElevated - I was going to mention your tennis balls in this post, but I decided to save that for the last post.
Doh... that's too bad. I was glad you had come back from your hiatus.
This is unfortunate...seeing as i don't have a connect with you through another medium. So, i am really, really going to miss you. And i am not pulling that out of my arse. That one is serious. I don't say that about many.
All the other cats that left, well...we still keep in touch. So while i may not get to seem them grace my xanga inbox...they aren't that far. But you...i mean, will i ever see you...or, whatever...agian?
This is sad. very sad. I am going to go cry now. Oh, but dont you be sad about me being sad and crying, my momma said, the more your cry the less you pee, so be happy that you are going to prevent me from wetting the bed for the next six weeks. Cause that is the how long i am going to be crying...
but you can feel completely guilty for the dehydration that will follow. That's all your fault.
no FUCK. dont leaveee
I KNEW taking those 3D glasses would come in handy one day.
Keep it real.
Are you in any way going to stay in touch with your most adoring fans and friends? *cough cough me cough cough*
*uses puppy dog eyes*
awwww i just got to know you. If you make a new blog let me know
Bummer.
Enjoy your "retirement" time, drawing unicorns and such.
hahahha
-AnonymousBloggingGirl (formerly known as California_Gal)
You cock tease
keep it real ho. EXK for life.
By 5 you mean 500 rite? Rite?
Completely understandable. I def can't say I was your biggest fan (mostly because I'm not a fan, I'm a person), but have enjoyed pretty much everything you write.
Waaah, I hope this isn't real, but sounds like you're serious. I'm not your biggest fan but I have always thought that you're a very cool person.
Live long and prosper.
@AvenueToTheReal - Wait?! You're NOT Jesus?!?! FUCK!!
So you come back for a few posts and get us all happy, just to leave. What a fucking tease!
@DrugInducedDuck - absofuckinglutely.
@TheBigShowAtUD - yeah, at first it sounded like the screen name, but by the end it sounded like leaving for good.
@another_rebel_without_a_cause - haha. Exactly!
But I just got here.
Btw Hi,
D
I hope the doodling of unicorns in consensual. Good luck
Very cool, Nori...I've always liked your style. You have a great way with words. Don't understand about the Zombies though, Vanedave says their pretty cool to hang out with.
I am totally bummed now, you better stay in touch missy
Dear Nori,
I honestly don't always come by and likewise you don't come by, I don't believe this is out of spite, but I might not have noticed your last hiatus...did you come back to flex your muscle one last time, to prove you are Top Blog material no matter what people say...
If so, can I have the movie rights? What is the address at your cabin?
I think I'll go stand in front of a train.
Possibly moving. </3
I honestly don't know what to say, for the short time i've been checking your blog out, I do like your site, and you seem like a really cool person
Well I look forward to reading the blogs you do have left
No frickin way.
Leaving is illegal, you know.
....
Damn. I only knew of you for a week or two, but you've been awesome while I knew you!
I wish ye well in life.
Oh Sadness. You were one of the few people I did read. It must be the year that Xangans retire and never come back.
Well good luck! 8]
LOL @ number 2. so random.
as humorous as those reasons are, those aren't good reasons to quit. you will be missed...
It just figures that when I come back full-swing, you're gone.
