Whaaat! Not only are you an incredible writer, but you're also a phenomenal minimalist artist? This is wildly unfair. I will be shocked if you don't win this. Not that I've seen the other contestants' work, but I'm pretty certain that this is the winner, regardless.

Naaah! " Phenomenal" goes too far! It'll go to my head, I'll open a gallery, and there will only be poor Steemians piling in with not enough coins to buy my prize-winning work. I'll have to cut prices, make basement bargains, and feed half of you. Plus I'll start making more, which means killing trees and that's my good karma shot to hell again.
Of course, it's all YOUR fault. For getting me into the contest mood! (My tip to Newbies hereby: join this contest and prevent me from winning.)

I only haven't nagged you about joining mine for two reasons:
I am, however, plotting to find ways to convince you to stick around. Don't think I've given up on that mission. I'm very persistent.

You make me toss style outta the window! You bring out a competitive spirit in me I never used to have.
My response to your competition was so multi-layered you wouldn't believe it.
I suddenly felt your senior generation (i.e. old): the younger generation was stepping up to the plate and starting to make things move. It reminded me of what I used to do, in full lesson-plan style all the details in place, stimulating, giving options, handing out irresistible incentives, being crystal clear, anticipating all eventualities. Rooting for the underdog.
I was forever, making up competitions, games, quizes, surveys. How else to get my Catalan accountants interested in English class at 8 in the morning. Or before that: how else to get my dysfunctional family to talk to eachother at Christmas dinners or birthdays?
How I had to restrain myself not to join your contest! But how greedy would that make me, going after more of your charity?!
Glory Hallelujah, another day in paradise prevented from slipping through my fingers: I stopped myself in time, for on top of the aforementioned sins (envy, greed) there was anger: I tasted that bitter and twisted reflux of resentment : Where was MY manual when I was new?
The new generation of Steemians are too good! Giving away their hard-earned cash. I don't belong here no more.... Steemit has hardened my soul.
If you have ever heard of/seen Happy! you'll know this is a picture of you and me. (You're the horse-icorn, full of indefatigable optimism. I'm a bit more jaded.)

Well, first of all, I don't know how much I'm part of the younger generation (anymore). I mean, geez, I'm in my thirties now. And I believe we came here around the same time.
One basic thing about my personality is that I tend to go full force into things when I find something that interests me. I get very excited and I have to learn all about it! It's that whole multipotentialite thing. There are benefits and drawbacks. Quick learner, but impatient and easily distracted! I found a writing platform where I might be able to make some money one day (maybe, I'm not entirely sure that will ever really materialize for me in any notable way), and I sure do love writing. I love ranting about things in written form and I'm too self conscious to ever put it on Facebook. I imagine my friends and acquaintances rolling their eyes. But here people seem to like it. See? I'm really not much of an optimist at all. I think that I make people's eyes roll and that I'll never be financially successful, here or otherwise.
So as for the contest: It's really a win for everyone, especially my impatience! Here I am with a nice little sum of SBD that came into my wallet, and I have some writing that I think people might like if they just saw it, and I like making other people happy, and I'm thankful to the people who gave me that SBD in the first place. What's really the difference between "powering up" and buying a bunch of Steem Basic Income shares for others (which also goes to yourself)? Both are essentially "investments" in how much you bring in on the platform, but one takes a bit longer. In truth it's a bit selfish of me. It's been a good excuse to bring attention to myself and make friends and followers.
And you are certainly welcome to another SBI share. After next week I'll be a veritable SBI share hoarder, so who am I to talk?

But do keep talking, you lovely selfish, grateful bundle of contrasts...
(That impatience gets better the more you get worn out, trust me. Sheer bliss awaits the old. You forget stuff, too. Never thought that one possible!)

Took me a bit to figure out what it is. Pretty sure it's a person dancing or stretching.
