Where do you come up with these contest ideas?
They just come to me. I use to run a Poker Forum and had a section that would be for forum games and giveaways so its something I have some experience with. Plus there are only so many games you can play in a thread. Allot are the same Idea applied a little differently in each post.
Fair enough. I see a few different contest posts, and yours always catch my eye
Thanks, hopefully they catch the eye of a dolphin or whale soon.
I probably talk too much. I tell my friends that I pretty much have an opinion on everything - just ask me and I'll tell you! But also that my opinion is worth what you pay for it, which is nothing. :-}
Every time I go to a meeting, or some other social gathering, I tell myself this time I will listen instead of talk. But I just get so excited about ideas that the words bubble out of me! I do like listening too, and am careful not to interrupt. But things just get so interesting!
The amazing thing is that for most of my life I was so awkward and shy that I didn't feel I had anything to say that would be worth listening to. I don't even know when this changed.
Ok...you talk yo much...he happy ;)
( my opinion is worth what you pay for it, which is nothing. )
That line had me roaring ....
I am horrible for interrupting. I have been getting better and been making an effort to not do it but I guess I just like hearing my own voice :P
Your younger self was just saving all the talking for later :)
I made you laugh? My work here is complete...
Oh my father hated to be interrupted and who could blame him in a house full of women! He taught us not to interrupt him - if you did he would just look at you and not say another word. Not. Another. Word. It left a hole in the conversation I can tell you! And made me very careful to listen more closely.
What a great way to teach others not to interrupt.
What's that old saying? "Opinions are like arseholes. Everyone has one"
I actually talk to little but write a lot. I find myself better in articulating my thoughts in written format. I am a man of few words but written I usually write 1000 words or more hahah.

Welcome...play whit us :)
Cool, I am not on discord much but I will certainly check out the Steemgigs Contest Channel.
I to find it much easier to type out my thoughts as opposed to saying them.
Dont be an opposer but be a correspondent mbom.
Aside from the inherent risk of tone being misinterpreted with the written word, it is often a clearer way of conveying a message
If you reply to this I will upvote you :) It isnt worth much but the gesture <3
A bribe for comments ..... I like it :)
Why bribing us,please face your front.
lol........... upvote you said that not the way in my opinion to get me to reply but it worked anyways
And if the person replying uses @dustsweeper then there might just be an extra benefit too
@dustsweeper is a great initiative !

Wabi sabi
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wabi-sabi
Wabi-sabi
In traditional Japanese aesthetics, wabi-sabi (侘寂) is a world view centered on the acceptance of transience and imperfection. The aesthetic is sometimes described as one of beauty that is "imperfect, impermanent, and incomplete". It is a concept derived from the Buddhist teaching of the three marks of existence (三法印, sanbōin), specifically impermanence (無常, mujō), suffering (苦, ku) and emptiness or absence of self-nature (空, kū).
Characteristics of the wabi-sabi aesthetic include asymmetry, roughness, simplicity, economy, austerity, modesty, intimacy, and appreciation of the ingenious integrity of natural objects and processes.
Perfect Imperfect...
Yin and yang
Ramé
Definition of ramé - Furnished with antlers; = "attired" ??????
Ramé.... something chaotic and joyful at same time ;)

beauty that is imperfect, what a paradox
if it is imperfect should I consider it beautiful
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder
then it is perfect at least in the eye of the beholder I am guessing.................
people tend to have different kinds of yard sticks which they use as their litmus test some are amazing and so are............. you really dont want me to tell you
Isn't that a type of hot sauce?
I'm just here for the money . Show me the money, g.. damn Tom Cruise!

I probably talk too much and sometimes i think it is a weakness in me especially since i am a man. Women are often considered to be the "talkatives" but when it comes to talking, sometimes i think there might be a gender confusion somewhere 😂😂😂😂😂.
I have tried so many times to hold myself or why not change that but in as much as i try, i fail so woefully. Actually i realized that so many people are drawn to me and i easily gain the attention and friendship of others through my over talking and how it makes so many people smile that sometimes i think it might be a gift and just who i am and i'm supposed to be. I think i enjoy it too because unlike so many out there who just rant and rant i know when to because i am good at reading body language and can tell when to engage in my over-talking sessions and that is very important 😊😊😊😊😊.
But truth be told, sometimes i just wish "it will stop" because it is kind of embarrassing to talk like a woman. I mean men are people of few words and much more of action, women should be the ones that do much of the talking.
Well i have accepted that part of me already, after all it's not like i can do anything about it that i've not done already 😃😃😃😃😃😃.
Some have the gift of gab while others just gab .
That is very true and practically makes sense. You see some people just talk and talk making no sense out of what they are saying and the worst part is "they don't even know when to stop".
