(Last Month We Asked You)
Last Month We Asked You: What should we do for our anniversary?
Here are your wonderful answers!
Luna-Starr said: I might suggest posting a fun game-type thread to celebrate and also throw pies/post riddles/share memories/whatever else you would like.
*Only one response?
*Sometimes it’s just a bum month.
Yes, this was definitely one of those. But hey, At least there’s
FEBRUARY JOKES!
What noise do valentines make when they hear a funny joke?
Love-ter!
Where do Valentines go when they want to see clowns?
The Cir-kiss!
What do you do when it rains in February?
Splash in the Cuddles!
What’s a valentine’s favorite dynamic duo?
Flirt-som and Jetsam!
Have you heard the joke about the candy heart?
Yeah! It’s like-conic!
Why didn’t the valentine cross the road?
The traffic was bad, and he was in a crush!
What do you call an emotionless valentine?
Apa-theart-ic!
Although some valentines may seem perfect, they all have an Achilles feel!
**Hilarious! Those are hilarious, right? So hilariou-
*CAN WE MOVE ON TO ADVICE PLEASE?!
...oki dokes, Zeke. This month’s advice is all about…
HOW TO APPROACH YOUR CRUSH!
If you just kinda want to have fun and be in the same place as your crush, I would suggest casually joining a conversation that they're in with a number of people who also know who you are... if you want to have a more serious conversation with them I honestly can't help you there.
(Luna-Starr)
Start slowly. Take any chance you have to get to know them better. Ask them to clarify some homework or offer to help them clean up!
When conversing, try to keep the conversation about them, and give them your full attention. Additionally, try to highlight some common interests you have!
Make sure to act confident when around them, and show them your best self. Looking good wouldn’t hurt too much either!
Prepare what you will say ahead of time when you’re confessing.. You don’t want to be caught off guard! Make sure to practice it again and again.
Choose the right place and time to confess. Make sure you two can be alone for a long period of time.
Don’t be afraid! What’s the worst that could happen? Even if they reject you, you will at least be able to know what they think! You might as well just get it over with!
*On rough days, the fact that I get to do advice is what keeps me going.
**Why DO you like it so much, Zeke?
*It’s Simple, really. You may think That I Do not require any way to keep myself happy, but that is not true. I require happiness to motivate myself throughout the day just like any other AE, CBER, and CAPTCHA. However, I do not wish To inconvenience others in my pursuit of joy. Since this has been a constant worry in my life, I have found that the best way to combat this Worry is to develop Joy from helping others!
**wow. That’s...really coo-
***You forgot CAPTCHAE!!!!!
*AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Oh, well, let’s just continue with
LOCATION OF THE MONTH!
In first place, we have…
P.W’s BUFFET!
Why: Location of The Month is our location, like the little thing you enter when you’re filling out your name. Nonetheless, this was our only submission, so congrats!
Are you idiots done yet?
*WHY IS EVERYTHING ON FI-oh, that was quick.
Like I said, bum month. Please, PLEASE just stop fighting until the awards are done, they’re a special moment!
***Alright.
CBer AWARDS!

Most awesome returns of old CBers: BHR and Blue Fairy!!

Best new threads: Leafy!!
I'm so glad someone brought the happiness challenge back, it's such an amazing way to think positively! And we haven't had an AE Ball for a while, and it was so sweet of you to give Leeli a birthday thread. Thank you for your ideas and your kindness! <3

Important dates
March jokes
Location of the Month
What are some things YOU feel lucky for?
LMWAY (What are some things that should REALLy be considered unlucky/lucky?
CBer awards!
***Can we fight again?
**Why do we fight anyway? Is it really because we’re mad? Or is it something else? Are our fights solely caused by the need for comedic humor in these check-ups? Are we simply seeking approval from our readers, who tune in monthly to see our “Hijinks”? Is it a secret desire to be closer to our fellow employees, but being unable to share these feelings because of trust issues rooted deep within our past? Perhaps the whole reason we fight constantly and cause millions of dollars of property damage is because we’re unwilling to address the damage within our very souls.
You know, Andy, I was feeling pretty good.
We hope that oddly deep interval didn’t hurt you, though! In fact, we hope that your February is just as good as ours! As I was writing the March content, I was hit with WAY too much nostalgia to be healthy. I can’t believe we’ve been doing this for a year now: It’s insane! Nonetheless, we’re glad for all the times we’ve had here: even the stress, because it brought smiles to all of you guys! We hope this year can be just as good as our last one, and that we can produce even more smiles in all of you!
Signed,
Floof Industries
**So, no one’s going to acknowledge-
***Maybe Ella will address it in a lore post. You remember the last time she tried to insert lore into a post.
**yeesh, what a train wreck...

Things that should be considered lucky/unlucky... well, to connect with St. Paddy's Day folklore type stuff, you're unlucky if it's rainy and sunny but you don't see a rainbow. You're lucky if there's no rain but still a rainbow, like that last scene in the original Muppet movie. XD
I try to feel lucky for everything, cause I know I am an extremely lucky person. I'm lucky to have great health and my family and their health too and a great house and financial secrurity and good food every day and a school my parents pay for me to attend and my own bedroom and the chromebook I'm typing on and music to listen to and talents I try to share and after school activities most weekdays that are so fun and my friends oh my goodness. Everything.
March 7th is Spellbound's birthday!
(February 2, 2020 - 4:54 pm)

That's the best of what I got.
I think seven-legged spiders are pretty lucky. That's just a me thing, not culturally based or anything. They inspire me to keep on at it, even if I find myself impaired by what life throws at me. And they are beautiful!
(February 3, 2020 - 5:48 pm)
March 2nd is also my birthday! :D
(February 14, 2020 - 2:20 pm)
Aw, sorry last month was post-less!
LMWAY: The number seven. If a pair of dice isn't weighted, it's the most commonly rolled number, which I think makes it lucky. Also, Friday the thirteenths should be lucky.

Location of the month: Ireland (because... duh)
Something that I feel lucky for: Joining the Chatterbox
LMWAY: The word "Yodel" should be considered lucky because... I don't know. It just should.
That's all I've got! Sorry for the (sort of) long post! Yodel!
(February 8, 2020 - 7:50 pm)
Oh!!!! I just realized I said national day of action for riers, I meant rivers! National Day of Action for RIVERS!
(February 13, 2020 - 6:02 pm)
For the LMWAY, I would say finding woolly bears should totally be considered lucky. They're so cute and fluffy, and you can't help but feel like they're these weird spirits of good fortune or something. Especially since you find them in the weirdest places!
(February 9, 2020 - 7:33 pm)
LMWAY: To me coincidences always feel lucky, especially good ones.

What are some things I feel lucky for?: Well, I'd like to say I feel lucky for everything, but, truth be told, I am a greedy and selfish child. I want feel lucky for the things I have, but if I really want something and I don't get, I'll complain. i really shouldn't complain, I have a lot more than I need. Though, depending on my mood, I can be really thankful for things. I am thankful for all of you, and my family and our financial situation and my friends and school, and there is so much more for me to be thankful for!
What are some things that should really be considered lucky?: Uhmmm, I'm actually not sure really....

(February 18, 2020 - 1:30 pm)
I know this is WAY off topic, but @Floof Industries, the 12th for me is also known as "Heartbreak Day" because that was excatily one year and 10 days ago that I had my first heartbreak and the only reason why I remembered that is becuase I wrote it down in my journal and I looked at it and I still have to say "Hey, (person's name), happy one year and maybe 3 week anniversary since we last talked about something serious! See you later!" and I will NEVER talk to that...GUY again!! Also, I'm gonna be on Spring Break, and my cousin and Grandma are going to be visiting in the summer so you might see another person for a week or 2.
