All occupations eventually end. When this one does, history's narratives will be shaped by the cacophony it wrought the carnage unleashed by the U.S.-led invasion that threatened Iraq's notion of itself as a country and that will haunt generations to come.

But the whispers may linger just as long the far quieter way in which two cultures that often found it difficult to share the same space intersected to reshape Iraq's language, culture and sensibility. From tattoos of Metallica to bellybutton piercings, from posters for a rap concert in Baghdad to stories parents tell their naughty children in Fallujah of the Americans coming to get them, the occupation has already left its mark.

There's just no point in taking time to (hopefully) read some stories, post a thought or two, and have trolls make it their life mission to make it miserable for everyone else.

It was fun for the most part, but lately it's just gotten more and more idiotic. I'm not 14 and don't care to hang around assholes, just as I don't IRL. Too many other things to be doing. But, once I started posting here I got to like some of of the posters (like you) and enjoyed the chats. You were the first to welcome me here. Thanks. It was a pleasure to meet you (and some others). I'm over it. Don't need to burn up a bosses time or while away the hours under circumstances that no longer exist.

Sure, no one may care what 101st has to say, but I'm burned out on spending time posting innocuous stuff on topics or personal aneccotes and chat and put up with a few assholes who ruin it for everyone else for no other reason than to kill work time and be assholes.

It ain't' important one bit in my life to post here.

You were the first to welcome me here when I signed up. I really enjoyed our late night chats back in the day when laughs IRL were few and far between. So, so long to you and thanks for all the laughs and your good nature.

And, no. I didn't have anything to do with the website Larry "Moar" posted last night. It was humorous though in a 'roast' kind of way.

Best of luck to you in whatever life has in store for you. (and all the rest of the people who use this site for something other than a place to seek attention they don't get anywhere else). "Drudge.com" ain't going in my address bar anymore. That's the last of my 59 seconds. CYA.
