Don't let the tears get into your drink while you're at it there.

Man, just because you put up a thread doesn't mean you have to be an attention whore about it. Personally I don't usually bother with my build ups. I did with my current tuber only because someone asked me to for my last tlt.

Point being, don't whine if you don't have a 3 page thread over your work. You're building for you, not the rest of us.
