Hello everyone my name is James and I love spreading joy to others. What I don't get is how when I try to spread joy to others people think I am tricking them, but really I just want to make people happy. When I was a kid I came from a bad neighborhood and you can bet that we did not even celebrate christmas. My Mom was too poor, and my dad was an alcoholic. When I was a kid I tried to find ways to distract myself from my pain. One of the things most effective at numbing my pain was antkeeping. Although back then I was not really good at antkeeping I did sometimes have success. It brought joy to my life everytime I would see my ants succeed, but it also made me long to have what the ants had. Acceptance. I noticed that no matter what the ants played an important role to the colony and each one was treated fairly with lots of love. Oh how I longed for that. Then one day a realization had popped up in my head. There were probably tons of kids who had longed for the same thing I did, and they probably all went through similar experiences. They all wanted love and acceptance. I thought to myself from then on that I would be as kind to people as I possibly could to help remove the evil from this world and bring joy , love and hope. Now I am kind to everyone I meet in the hopes that they will feel the hope and love I have for everyone. I also love celebrating special events in history with my ants by feeding them all sorts of goodies. Any way I hope to bring a smile to each and every one of you.

Thank you Preny for the introduction! I assume you now want to send me P. occidentalis (using a photo of some P. badius workers)?

How clever! There is no better way of gaining people's sympathies from a sob story, whether or not it be true. I will give Preny this, he knows how to tell a tale XD. But better luck next time. Also, if he came from such a bad neighborhood, why then is his writing so fluid? If a commodity such as celebrating Christmas was impossible, then surely school wouldn't have went so well either.

This is like, a perfectly valid arguement even without Preny accusations.
