To those of you who are posting consistently on JBDS which you do not win in order to express how upset you are, please take things like this to your close friends. A competition is based largely on effort and Syra has put forth an immense amount of that; the situation is not that you don't deserve a JBD, you put forth effort too, but remember that Syra and John are both people just like you and that they also wanted this jellybean and that they dedicated incredible time, work and art to that cause. Why not simply be happy for them because, whether or not you know them personally, they're still parts of the Chicken Smoothie community and therefore your friends?
Beyond that, can I just put something out there in general? c: Adopting virtual pets should not have immense psychological effects on you. Things like this are supposed to be lighthearted, enjoyable and fun, not an ordeal that you leave thinking 'man my life is terrible'. C'mon guys, pep up; there'll be other jellies and there sure are better things to be depressed about.
I'm gonna leave this post here a while unless I'm asked to remove it since most of the jellybean threads I've seen close with winners in the last two weeks have produced enormous angst. Unwarranted angst. :c
I had nine lives,
but I lost all of them
and I wasted time when I looked for them
for now I know things lost are never to be found again
