stephanie is: 
sad.
why are people so mean? and why today when my day is already bad?? some one was real mean in one of my recent posts. i didn’t even try to defend myself cause i didn’t want to get sucked into the drama. he was saying how awful my site is and how i am sucking all the poor ignorant people into giving me money. how i am taking everyones money and buying a huge house with it and that his 8-year-old can code better. that you aren’t a “professional” if you only code html… sigh:
“I want to listen to a prostitute who can’t even “CODE” simple HTML as good as my 8 year old brother”
argh! i think my site is well done. if you can’t read sites on black backgrounds, perhaps you should adjust your monitor settings. i am a prefessional. my title is “senior graphic designer”. not i am not a programmer. if i were i would be making a whole lot more than i do now. but that doesn’t mean i am not a professional. no i am not buying a house with the donation money. i am spending the last of my leftover college money (a lot of which is social security since my mom died when i was 5) and money i have saved up from my full-time job. donation money has been covering the servers and being donated to charity. don’t believe me? some people who actually HAVE parkinsons were calling my site porn and asking to see reciepts of my donations. people like that make me feeling like i would stop donating to their cause if it weren’t for the fact that my dad has it. but, here are the fucking receipts. happy?
sorry for the crappy picture – i don’t have a scanner and i am too tired to hook up a better camera right now. the july receipt is a $150 donation to parkinsons.org, and the august one is $50 to michael j. fox’s foundation. for the month of october, i will be giving ALL donations to cancer charities since it is breast cancer awareness month and both dan and i have lost our mothers to cancer. argh! why do i have to defend myself to you?? i don’t understand what i did to deserve being treated like this. and as a correction, no – assholes like this never keep me up at night. they upset me, but i have never had a sleepless night over them. i tend to worry more about stuf flike my daddy being sick and having enough money each month to pay for our upcoming mortgage. and no, the house isn’t a monsion or anything. it is a townhouse. it looks big in the pictures cause it is three stories. the bottom one is only the garage and rec room. it is bigger than what we have now in our apartment, but the rooms are smaller. and itis not being built for us. it was being build whether we bought it or not. ae just happen to be buying a new house because it costs the same amount to move way out there and get it as it does to stay here and get something built 20 years ago.
ugh stephanie. stop stop stop stop stop. this day has already been a terrible, horrible, no-good, very bad day.
i think i’ll move to austrailia…
Girl you are soo classy. I love your attitude. Fuck those bitches if they are mean to you. It’s not going to change anything arguing back. It just shows that you don’t have to argue back because you are you and you don’t care. And if people don’t beleive you about the donation deal..then thats kind of sad. Do they ask for receipts when they donate to Jerry’s Kids? ANyway girl…love your posts….love what your doing…we just gotta love you.
Have a great night …. =)
ps if you leave the country can i have your house?
stupid people!
Hey, your site is great, you are beautiful, smart, kind, generous and talented. Those are all facts. You have an impressive job and are buying a house at a VERY young age- I admire the things you are able to do and hope I am half as successful at your age. Don’t worry ’bout the jerks! 🙂
Stephanie: I love your site (much better than my own!), and I think your a wonderful person! Much to wonderful to be bothered by assholes like that. Maybe he just feels like shit and thinks he needs to upset another person, but for whatever reason, it’s unacceptable not to mention degrading to himself. He’s only proof of the theory there’s an asshole in every bunch. DON’T YOU EVEN WASTE A SECOND ON THIKING ON THAT JERK!!!!! Your too great a person, keep smiling and know that there are plenty of people who stand behind you!!!!!! Okay now I’ve said my piece 🙂
Try not to let dumb fucks like that get to you, ok sweetie?
God, sometimes I wish I could shelter all the good people from all the assholes out there.
I love your site, Stephanie… don’t let the man get you down.

girl, you have a kick ass site and a super sweet personality. i don’t send birthday presents to just anyone! i praise you for donating money to those charities… i wish i could do the same.
damn the man!
You want me to beat ’em up for you?
Just because reinforcement and encouragement is always a welcome thing…I think your site is cool and well done.
I think he’s just upset that you aren’t naked. Oh wah. You’re still alright in my book, Steph.
This is easy to say and hard to do … but posts like the one tonight need to be seen for what they are: childish cries for attention, and bait for controversy; monologues that don’t seek dialog, and certainly not to be taken seriously.
It’s clear that the poster has an obsession with mechanism and no appreciation for content and artistry. When he’s emotionally as old as his brother (in a year or two, one hopes) perhaps he’ll have cultivated a more balanced perspective.
Stephanie,
I know you said you don’t lose sleep when assholes like that rear (hehehe) their ugly heads, but keep in mind anyway that there are a ton of people out there–probably more than you realize–who think you’re awesome just by what little most of us know about you. And your site is a lot of fun; you’re a very talented designer. And I think it’s wonderful of you to donate money to charities that have a special meaning for you, and as for the rest, you do a public service for us, so what’s wrong people donating if they want to? You know what they say about people like that guy; he’s probably just insecure in his manhood or something. 😛

P.S. Not to freak you out or anything, b/c this is totally random, but your honey sort of made an appearance in one of my dreams. I had lost my memory, and I was living in a house with a guy named Dave, and the first time I saw him I thought, “Wow, he looks like Stephanie from stvlive’s fiance.” Go figure.
awww yeah
Whoa!
Chickz are dreamin bout me ;p
Re: awww yeah
hehe. damn! i don’t have chicks dreaming about me!
Re: awww yeah
hehehe … yeah, as soon as I thought that in my dream, I decided I needed to leave and figure out who I really was, ‘cuz I didn’t want Stephanie to kick my ass for shacking up with her man! 😉 I don’t usually dream about people I’ve never met; you just kind of made a guest appearance. 🙂

Wow–I revisit your page tonight only to see all hell broke loose. That makes me angry that I started the thread by wishing you a good, honest warm fuzzy and that guy had to go and taint it. Oh well—screw him—you are still a blessed person—problem is is there are people with issues in the world who can’t stand it when other people have a good life. Oh and that prostitute comment he made wasn’t directed at you—it was directed at spooky (which is still a mean, childish statement, regardless who he directed it at). I read his insane ramblings and noticed that. For what that matters. Anyhoo–I personally enjoy your journal—and I have checked out your site (but I am too broke right now to join—sorry!)—and they are both entertaining and pleasing to the eye.
Once again:
Peace, love and happiness,

Please don’t pay attention to idiots
Anytime someone is good at something. And attracts attention. There will be someone that will say that anit so good.
And they all ways seems to want to go to great lengths to prove there point.
Let me ask you this.
If you go to a web site and you think Hmmph not much here this is not done well. Do you take the time to email the person and tell them there site sucks.
Well I don’t I just leave I would be sending emails all the time if I did that. Hell I would send a your site sucks email to myself right now.
Please ignore these people.
Never even reply. Those people do not exist in purple monkey land.
Re: Please don’t pay attention to idiots
I agree completely. Don’t even waste the time and energy writing about it, because you certainly don’t need to explain anything to anybody who’s actually taken the time to look at your site and read your journal.
Frankly, I was all ready to add a few choice words of my own to the fray that followed the dynamic dictator’s post, but decided to follow my own advice. Some people do this kind of stuff for kicks, things they’d never even think of doing if they actually had to look you in the eye. And sadly, yes, that includes kicking you when you’re down. I’m sure you know that. I’m also sure that you know it’s probably going to continue. And I know that doesn’t make it any easier to deal with.
I do want to say one thing, though, and that is, all the ugliness of the situation aside, I appreciate the opportunity we had here to show you that there’s a Townsville of Stephanie fans for every asshole out there. We come here because we like the site and you.
And please don’t move to Australia. They’ve got enough truly unique people down there, and I’ve heard really bad things about tapedelayjournal.com.
..and that guy will probably never read that post…
Stuff him Steph.
He’s one in thousands.
So he woke up and found sugar in his car’s
gastank.
You have enough people who return often.
Nothing wrong with hand-coding HTML – it’s a lot
cleaner.
Be like a duck. Water off your back.
He was obviously just trying to freak you out.
*hugz*
BuRT 🙂
why do people suck??
*ack* why?? they are so stupid and ignorant to call your site pornographic! how dare they!!!!!
your site is so wonderful and your talent shines through. you spend so much time on it and your efforts are easy to spot – such a great site! one of my favorites.
if they can’t see past their own issues, fuck ’em. they obviously have no clue as to what they are talking about anyhow!
*hugs and sunshine*
