# About me
Defining Myself in 8 Points -1. I Am Me
I know it is an all time favorite dumb-guy-trying-to-act-like-he's-really-really-smart statement. But I'm using it otherwise (as I'm too dumb to try even that). Odd. I'm using the statement in my own defense. Some of my friends who've known me too closely claim that I'm not myself. And I really don't know what they mean. But if I'm none of the 'You's who might be able to read this given a chance and an occasion and a reading glass too, then I'm left with with no one else to be but myself. Therefore, I am me.
2. I've Never Lighted A Matchstick in My Life
Possible Interpretations -
[if you are a chain smoker] I'd remind you of a lighter.
[if you're Mahatma Gandhi] I'm a 'torchbearer' of non-violence
[if you're Florence Nightingale] I'm really not bringing in the 'light' of knowledge.
[if you're a reader of folk tales] I'd remind you of a girl who sold matchsticks on a cold, snowy night to make a living and met her grandma in a dream that went on forever.
[if you're nobody] I'm a coward.
3. I Don't Remember What This Point Would Have Been Originally
Yes, I do suffer from Amnesia. Did you say you don't know what that is - welcome mate, you're suffering from the same disease. Dig Wikipedia, I'm not your pocket encyclopedia. What I am, is a poor amnesiac fellow waiting for a day when he'd eventually forget his amnesia too, like everything else. And thus, be cured of it.
4. I Am A Compulsive Liar
Trust me.
5. I Am Repetitive
... To the point of being unbearable. I might just reproduce a story I told you yesterday, word by word, when I meet you today. And they'd be so very same that you'd actually believe that they are different.
6. I Am Repetitive
... To the point of being unbearable. I might just reproduce a story I told you yesterday, word by word, when I meet you today. And they'd be so very different that you'd actually believe that they are same.
7. I Am Not Me
No, really. I needed to own up.
8. I Only Know Seven Things About Myself.
Yeah, I know. It's so clever of you to notice that.

Happy forthcoming B-day. I'm returning to the world of the internet and doing the writing thing more these days. Good to see you're still on DA. Cheers.

I haven't been on DA in such a long time, but today I remembered that you once wrote "A Short, Endless Biography of Tushi" and I really really loved it and wanted to show it to a friend. But I can't find it anymore, so was just wondering if you took it down?

Yes, I had to take it down since it is forthcoming in a magazine. It will be available in the magazine in a few months. You can follow me in twitter @AbhishekSWrites to get updates if you wish.
Thanks for remembering my piece.
Smile.

BATTLEFAIRIES In reply to clownscape [2016-06-06 12:29:15 +0000 UTC]
Maybe the Djinn's paladin got bested in last night's game, who's to say. Then again, she's not usually that petty - maybe she's filming something for the youtubes? Does it say 'Find your own cheese', perchance?

clownscape In reply to BATTLEFAIRIES [2016-06-06 12:54:17 +0000 UTC]
No. But then, it does say something about a pied waterpiper, but the words are not quite discernible thereafter.

Thank you for the warm welcome. Have already gone through most of your links. I had been pretty inactive in dA for a while now, due to my busy schedule. Returning to find DA has changed a lot. I think your Group is doing some amazing job in keeping the spirit of dA alive. And then, improving on it. So, you have all my support for the cause.
I will be able to make some time (I think) to further your Group's vision to the best of my abilities. So, I've enrolled in the Weekly Commenting section by commenting in the thread. I felt that is the best section to ensure that I'm doing so regularly. So, that pretty much sums it up for me.
Smile.

That's understandable. DeviantArt has changed a lot indeed.

Awesome! We send notes out on the weekend, so you'll be added for this weekend/next week.
Thank you once again!
