21074th poster gets a cookie (cookie thread (Part 7)) (Part 8)

my middle school yearbook quote got fr vetoed, cuz I made it a joke quote attributed to a friend and then they got mad and either I had to pick from a list or they just made one up for me.

I also said I was gonna be a mechanical engineer living in europe though so the rest of those predictions were stupid asf

vetoā€™ing quotes on strict rules like that is fucking stupid. I know itā€™s a quote from astarion from bg3 but itā€™s genuinely really fucking inspiring LET ME HAVE IT

so instead of a good quote (what they want from the rule) from a non-academic source, they get a spiteful quote from an academic source

We didnā€™t get quotes in middle school.
We did get superlatives, though. I got voted as, ā€œMost Likely to Write a Bestselling Bookā€.

I should, like, actually write a book at some point.
Been wanting to for a few years now, but all of my ideas kinda suck.

Like, I had a multiverse one from 2020 that was really good, and then EEAAO came out and did the concept way better.

Still tinkering with it, but I donā€™t have an ending for it, and I donā€™t think many people want yet another multiverse story in 2025.

mine was ā€œnot technically a trainwreckā€

which later turned out to be incorrect
