@VentusOfficial What's the matter, Ventus? Daddy never loved you much, Mommy never keeps in touch and the last girl you managed to corner at a party run away screaming? Nobody carries around that much bile without having a childhood trauma and massive amounts of penned-up sperm, so do us all a favor, Google "psychiatric services for low-income", then make an appointment and just go - do it for yourself as well as for the rest of us.

Was there like plastic or something put over the post its? or was it just left like that?
