let me tell you about maccrash
 
maccrash is a 16 y/o white american boy. and although it's his birthday today so he's technically 17, i'm going to ignore that.

maccrash has just learned to drive and he thinks it makes him cool. maccrash texts me at unholy hours of the morning telling me about how he spoke to a girl today that he's not even sure he likes or about the next girl who he thinks he might like. maccrash has friends that take his phone and send me inappropriate messages. maccrash refers to pizza as "'za", thinks "namsayin'" is an acceptable word to use in casual conversation, and thinks that quoting obscure song lyrics to his friends is a good means of communication. for all intents and purposes, maccrash is a 16 y/o white american boy.

needless to say, this is not why I like maccrash.

It's extremely rare to find people on PokéCommunity (and in my experience, the internet in general) who can have a good laugh at themselves and at those around them. When I say this, I don't just mean "lol yea im dumb". I mean taking something you've said or done that was ridiculous and absolutely running with it and making it a thing. ...of course, that could just be interpreted as "so maccrash is basically an easy bullying target" but it's so much more than that. I love people who have the ability to relax and have a laugh at themselves and, well, pretty much anything, it because what it lends you is bags and bags of character. maccrash is one of the best characters I've ever met on the internet and it's near-impossible to have a conversation with him that isn't absolutely filled with entertainment and personality.

Additionally I can truly say that maccrash is one of the few people I've met online who has genuinely changed my life offline for the better. That's pretty rare for someone whose offline life is, for the most part, pretty fine as it is in social terms. This change isn't really some big deep meaningful one, but it's been a really good one - at the age of... 15 at the time that I met him, maccrash had listened to more music than pretty much anyone I had met ever, and what's more is that he was so full of enthusiasm and eagerness to share it. So I thought "yeah why not" and we listened to a couple of albums together (at the time, with Luck Hax too who I hope is still around) aaaaaaand we kinda haven't stopped yet. I've always liked music but the absolute wealth of it that maccrash has introduced me to has been incredible and had genuinely contributed a lot to my enjoyment of it offline. So, uh, thanks!

Anyway I could go on but I won't because this is getting shit. Matt mostly knows what I think of him anyway, so I'll just leave it here with a happy birthday. ...uh, happy birthday Matt.

Your turn, PC!

Razor and his mysterious posting almost overshadowed the whole celebration here... but what matters is that Matt is another year older now. You have been such an awesome presence in C&M and hopefully you will take it to even greater heights.

Keep being awesome, bud. Love you and even if our musical taste is still kinda opposed to each other, you still have great taste with a different side of the aspect nonetheless.

back in my day people on pokémon forums were only in their mid-20s instead of their mid teen years

Bellsprout July 10th, 2015 12:02 PM

you can be tried as an adult now!!!

congratulations!!

maccrash July 10th, 2015 12:20 PM

thanks everyone! it was a pretty good day. idk how I feel about not being 16 anymore. I might have to actually grow up a bit now.

Mr Cat Dog July 10th, 2015 12:38 PM

Happy belated b-day! When you gave M three stars on Letterboxd, that was by far my proudest moment in relation to you. If you have any burfday dollah lying around after splurging it on the copious amounts of stuff that Alex probably advised you to try, you should totes check out the Criterion sale at Barnes and Noble.
