Let me start this off by giving you folks some background on me. I’m doing this for a couple of reasons, one – because I think you need to know this stuff in order to understand the magnitude of why this was such an atypical situation to happen to a guy like me, two – because I’ve been an active Redditor for over eight years and I have a strong belief in giving *something* back to the community, and three – you can decide in the next minute or so if you feel like wasting your time reading this wall of text. Oh yeah, four – If you did read this, I’d like your input and opinions on things, after all, that’s what we are here for.
