Remember this? I just did.
I was actually trying to find Mike’s draft of his “What I Learned” for the latest episode of Lost (because I just like spoilers of any kind) and I noticed some site had linked to this, with the appropriate title of “Iron Man vs. Batman – Contradictory Premises” – oh joy. Unfortunately, that website has had a database error, so I couldn’t read it.
There was, however, a pingback on the original blog post that said “Phenomena on Break had an interesting take on this”.
“Phenomena on Break“. Yay.
Why oh why do I keep the best for everyone else? I don’t want to go on a rant here, but it’s true. Like, for instance, in school I have this group project, and because I’m a good team member, I gave most suggestions without desiring any credit. And then last week I had this issue with scheduling and I couldn’t finish a thing I had to do for it, so this one colleague of mine freaks out and starts claiming that I don’t do anything for the project and that she (of course it’s a girl, what else?) will never ever rely on me again. Even though two days later she asked me for help.
That’s a mistake I keep making, y’know? That’s why it’s frustrating. I do stuff for other people without wanting any credit and I end up being completely ripped off everytime. I guess that’s why I keep butting heads with Michael over who had which idea, because I’m tired of it.
And Mike wanted me to bring the “LOST Analysis” posts to Phenomena on Break to replace his “What I Learned”, but… it may not look like it, but I’m very fond of this blog. I am. I don’t do much on it but I keep thinking of ways of improving it, trying to make it better. I’m not trying to find popularity, I just care about it, and if it got views or any success I’d feel proud. That one time where DarkUFO linked to the Lost: Via Domus screenshots I really felt proud of it.
So yeah, successful or not, “LOST Analysis” is staying. If I ever showcase a brilliant theory, I want people to link to it saying “Mythos had an interesting take on this”, because I like to have my own little space and I want people to like it as well.
Okay, that’s out of my system.

Phenomena On Break is a site, though.
I invited you to PoB to become a part of PoB. Half the time, people don’t even know I’m the leader of the site so that goes to show you it doesn’t matter who you are, you’re only as good as the site you post on.
I don’t know why but it always upsets me when you make it sound like you’re sacrificing your potential to PoB when in reality I created PoB (version 2) to have a showcase of talent. Not a place to steal other people’s stuff.

The rant wasn’t really intended at PoB, because that was accidental. It just made me realize it keeps happening.
It’s not that I want to be appreciated (if it were, I wouldn’t let it happen so often, would I?), it’s just that, 90% of the time, it ends up coming back around at me.
I mean, in that school problem, if I hadn’t tried to do everything and if I had made it clear that I had those ideas and that I deserved credit for them in my grade, I wouldn’t have an ex-friend, currently-bitch on my ass getting ready to make my grade go from 18 to 14 (in 20). Because then everyone’d know perfectly that I’ve done much more work than her, and she’d have to shut her little mouth.

Mythos by the logic you’ve provided I’ll say this:
All your comic are belong to me

We all know you’re not cool enough to be Mythos, Blackie.
(I hope you realize I’m being playful)
