No, I was replying to you. I think you read this quote in someone's profile or a variant thereof and decided it was true: [T]ime you enjoy wasting is not wasted time. -Marthe Troly-Curtin, Phrynette Married

Just because you read it in someone's profile, doesn't mean it's true.

If you've enjoyed the "years gone by", even though it hasn't had anything productive apart from your enjoyment, then you haven't wasted you time because you've enjoyed it. If you are now bored with it, come up with another hobby to enjoy. So if I take all my money and waste it on a weekend of hookers, blow, and champagne, it's not a waste if I enjoyed the weekend?

The future is stupid.

What a fascinating contrast with your other interests. I have this picture in my mind of two people playing chess at a doom metal club. Welcome to second life and the forums.

I went to that club, but it was dead. There were four people there. No wonder you were bored. I recommend patronizing clubs that are more popular.

Yeah, my mom doesn't late me stay up late either.

At what club?

How about Lar's?

Try Muddy's. It usually has a decent crowd. Second best would be Fogbound Blues.

You'll get L$300 on Tuesday. Did you get a Linden Home? You should sign up for that and set your home location to there. I don't know about the tabs popping up. Could you be more specific?

Embarrassed to be here.

Infohubs are a popular place for griefers, and also sandboxes.

I understand completely. You're a writer and writers need readers. Otherwise, what's the point, excpet for perhaps postponing suicide... Anyhow, I've added your blog to my feed reader. There are many voices in the world. I'm looking forward to hearing yours.

The last question was asked for the first time, half in jest, on May 21, 2061, at a time when humanity first stepped into the light. The question came about as a result of a five dollar bet over highballs, and it happened this way:

Can you write something funny for us?

Do what Nalates said, visit the parcel and edit the land by right-clicking on it. Then choose select. Draw the narrowest selection you can across the parcel along one dimension. Note the total meters selected and divide by four. That's your first dimension. Then do the same thing along the other dimension, i.e., draw the narrowest selection you can from edge to edge, note the total square meters selected and divide by four. That's your other dimension. The smallest amount you can select is 16 square meters. That's why you divide by four, because the smallest amount selected will be 4 meters by 4 meters.

You get five chances per day. Don't be timid about it. Nothing bad happens to you for abandoning your Linden Home.

I think everyone here believes in second life.

Yes, you can. You're the creator and therefore the copyright owner. I need a future ex like you.
