Iirc the angry flower was a character in the game. Never made the connection before.


This.

Video crack and since it's like pachinko basically you spend all your time playing it holding your breath, tense and powerless. It's super bad for you.

Kyoon was a paranoid schizophrenic (or someone doing a very good impression of one) who would constantly register new accounts to post links to enormous semicoherent conspiracy screeds, accompanied by his signature kitten avatar.

Arzy was a guy who would panic to a ridiculous degree over upcoming US elections in D&D. I think he was also a rich finance douchebag of some sort.

I wish that thread hadn't been deleted as part of the Shmorkster's settlement with Goldman, I bet a lot of it would be hilarious in hindsight.
