Sorry I've Been a Ass/The Wedding is Over

[Greg]

Sorry I've been an asshole the past 10 months.

Then again some might say I've always been that way.

And some might argue that by making a post in General dedicated to this I'm following in that trend.

Oh well.

I don't think it's any secret that I've been negative, bitchy, unconstructive and even 'Lobsterian' in nature. That's because I basically created our overseas wedding while trying to collaborate with businesses from a Victorian beach town that haven't yet discovered e-mail. Trying to get any, ANY little bit of information across, let alone getting a reply, was a chore and inbetween massive video projects for the reception it made me a really negative fuck (what's new?).

So if I bitched you out or took something you said the wrong way because my head was stuck up my ass or my fuse was super short, I'm really sorry.

The wedding is over, it was a huge success and the old Greg is back.

(insert jab at Greg)

Well, almost. We've got one more reception in Japan (heading back Sunday) and after that's over I'm taking my parents around Japan (their first time). After that I can finally breath a sigh of relief and just relax on a beach somewhere.

I will be uploading the videos from the wedding as I separate them (damn you 10 minute YouTube limits!) and I will try to upload all the old OP vids from my YT account that got deleted for, of all things, posting 30 seconds of a shitty J-Drama.

In the meantime, here's the intro:

Oh, and a special treat for those who found themselves emboldened by ZKaiser's words about me from the 'Who Do You Hate The Most?' thread:

So whether you hate my guts, only care about the info I post from time to time or for some reason or other, actually enjoy my company here, I'm back.

Celebrate or gnash teeth as you see fit. Either way, thanks for putting up with my bullshit, past, present and future.

Pictures and movies will be posted as they become available.

Pirates of the Carribean theme, huh?

I complained once about people sucking up to you or some shit like that, so if anything, people are more nice to you than they are hating your guts, as for me, I still think you're cool

[Malintex_Terek]

Honestly you didn't bother me. The complaining about you did. If your negativity was noticeable, it's because people spend far too much time on AP.

I don't care if they spend 1 hour or 18, 30 minutes could still be too much if they cared enough to cry and moan in text form online.

[Sick_Fool]

Greg, you are awesome in my eyes. Even before I became a member of AP and was still a forum lurker, I always thought your comments with every new OP chapter were insightful, and I would always look forward to your posts.

If anything, people who negged/hated you were the ones who got in my nerves.

[taboo]

i didn't notice a difference

As much as I don't give a damn about your personal life, I do respect that you can admit you've been a Sir Douchington lately. If you can fix all that, I doff my cap to you, good sir.

@taboo:

Thats pretty much it.

[eerie]

the only difference was that you weren't around as much.

take some much needed R&R, dude. glad to have you back.

[sufjan]

hey even in your 'negative' mode you still managed to contribute to the forum by giving us ass loads of sbs translations among other things

[captain usopp]

relaxing on a beach somewhere..pffft. hello, your attached to the old ball and chain now greg. :P

so first comes love, then comes marriage, then comes…..

ha ha, we're waiting greg.

I think we've all managed to survive with no greg for a while, but it's nice to have you back. I need someone to agree with me on things. :)

now, I demand some pictures.

edit: watched video omg, greg, if there's something you do, it's videos! OMG seriously, make this a career.

[Flux]

Greg, you've always been awesome, don't change !

[LUFFY1fan]

Cool video. I remember seeing that proposal video before i did not even know that was you though lol and don't kill me for saying your wife looks cute :) (i hope you too have a nice life together)

[TheHerald]

[Dark Lord Zenigame]

Glad to hear your wedding went well, Greg.

[Nobodyman]

It's great to have you back Greg! Honestly, I've always liked you. I think you're a very smart and witty guy, but I did notice that you had become pretty edgy lately. Still, I don't think were downright hateful or malicious or anything, so I forgive. I'm glad the wedding went well (but wait, you still have one more reception coming up?) and that video was awesome. Can't wait to see more.

Doraemon is a mysterious creature. He doesn't have to make sense.

Hot dog bun count is a marketing scheme used to make you buy more hotdogs and hotdog buns.

There, I answered your questions.

…OH, I wasn't supposed to take that literally? After watching your video, I don't know if I want to go through the hassle of having a wedding XD;

[Stariana]

Aww. Congrats Greg, and welcome back. ;P.

[Greg]

After watching your video, I don't know if I want to go through the hassle of having a wedding

It was pure hell.

And ultimately it was worth every second.

[Arei]

Yeah that looked like it required lots of time, money, blood, sweat, and tears to get off the ground but being able to enjoy all of that with the person you want to spend the rest of your life with was something really special.

Your wife is a lucky woman. Very few people would go to the extremes of awesomeness you did for your wedding to make it such a special and memorable event XD

I dont know you or ever heard of you…
But dude wow, the whole concept of that wedding was awesome.
I'm engaged right now, and im not really in a rush to get married, im thinkin next year.
I just thought that was dope.
Im lookin forward to the actual wedding/reception videos.

[Robby]

You know, considering how insane your PROPOSAL was, which was straight out of a terrible unrealistic romantic comedy what with the giant screen on new years and the santa claus suit and pretending you had already left the country… and now all that...

Damn, you must really truly love that woman.

She's incredibly lucky, methinks.

Congrats to you both.

[Ms. Suave Debonair]

I bet Greg's tensions were finally relieved when he got to consummate this wedding.

Congrats Greg, now get back to whatever the hell you were doing previously, only a short time before the babies come.

[Greg]

now get back to whatever the hell you were doing previously

In January before devoting my full time to the videos, I finished documenting all but 3 volumes of Oda's manga mistakes. So those are coming down the pike, followed by Color Walk interview translations and Baroque Works.

Tee-hee.

[TLC]

Glad to have you back, Greg, I missed your weekly witty, well-structured comments on One Piece chapters. Does that mean you haven't been keeping up?:wassat:

You are using your time most wisely and constructively.

[Chrissie]

That video was amazing! O: Glad your wedding went well! To tell you the truth, I haven't placed you yet but I now know that you are rather creative. I'll see about your character later when I read more of your posts. :P

PURE AWESOME! More respect points for you, sir.

Oh, and congrats on a successful wedding. Forgot to mention that earlier.

[Refii]

Who is this Greg person and why does he think he can twitter on AP forums?

congrats on the wedding though.

[Zkaiser]

You're so cool Greg!!

[Jarhead]

Umm, welcome back?

[The Iceman]

glad your back Greg and with plenty of time to spare before Lost gets back for it's final season!

[MiniLuffy]

Greg always seemed like an Arlong Park big shot. People were always like "hey ask Greg" or "Greg probably knows" and "Greg, name some asian chicks in my signature please <3".

But he seems like a nice guy.

Greg is just a big One Piece geek who spends too much of his time obsessing about the little details in the series.

cool guy though.

'bout sums it up.

More coming as I'm able to shorten and resave the original vids but in the meantime here's one I'm particularly proud of.

Well, I'm proud of all (8) of them but this one was the most fun to put together.

The video is amazing Greg. You are one hella devoted husband and everyone in the video seemed really enthusiastic to be a part of it as well. I'm sure it was a lot of trouble to put together but it looks like it was totally worth it and then some.

Thanks for bringing a little bit of happy to my otherwise extremely shitty day.

[Greg]

Glad you enjoyed it and I'm sorry you had a bad day. Hopefully this will help a bit as well.

[captain usopp]

I need to find a reason to pay you to make some awesome video for me. :3

[Ms. Suave Debonair]

With all the effort you must have put into making all these videos, I'm surprised you actually remembered to get married.
