I can't find the thread but when that huge fat guy that worked at Giant Bomb died there was a pretty funny meltdown thread where people were losing their poo poo over people making fat jokes.

When goons were falling all over themselves to accept creepy rapist Dan Lirette was one of the times SA turned into its own trainwreck. Foe those of you playing along at home, Lirette was the father of the frogbaby, the anacephalic little girl who eventually died. He tried to make himself out to be a good guy, and some goons fell hard for it. In reality he seduced/raped a young woman, and then denied he was the father of her severely handicapped child. He eventually fessed up, but not until after a lot of drama.

I don't remember it happening like that at all, Dan was a scumbag through and through and we all knew it pretty early on, the whole reason he reg'd was to defend himself wasn't it? He tried to "roll with the punches" and some goons thought he was okay in that weird GBS hivemind way but he was always a known shithead, someone back me up here. I don't think I had even registered at that point but I followed most of the weirder threads like that.

Who was the guy who posted mundane stories that swerved into insanity at the last second? The one I remember most was about him meeting, then ejaculating all over Harrison Ford. ...Hakan?

God drat it, hakkannned again This but with 50 Foot Ant. I remember reading one of his stories about his wife being a nurse/battle medic in the middle east. It was one of the saddest things I had read and about half way through I scrolled up, saw I was reading a 50 foot ant story and breathe a sigh of relief that it wasn't real.

Someone please tell me I'm not crazy for remembering this. Wasn't there an e/n thread of a guy asking for relationship advice because he changed the shower head to something different and was confused when this girlfriend insisted he changed it back? I swear the thread was telling him she was masturbating with the showerhead and he should just change it back but he was being weird about it.

Theres a few E/N threads that I and only I seem to remember so I feel your pain. I could have sworn there was an E/N thread where some dude posted that he was worried because he couldn't contact his girlfriend. And so goons told him to contact her family but he didn't know who her family was. So goons said contact her friends. He didn't know who her friends were. So goons said to contact the police but he didn't even know where she lived. So goons asked if he was sure they were even in a relationship and he was all "of course she's my girlfriend. She begged me over aim to date her."

Tucked-In T-Shirt posted:Someone mentioned "Solve the Mystery of the Internet Whore" which spawned I have that doc here https://goo.gl/gQcpDx I'm gonna read it and see if its still any good 10 years later. Introduction On September 20, 2006, a new member of the Something Awful forums, Axman666, posted a thread titled “The storie of how my grandfather destroyed the bears!” Reaction to the initial post was enthusiastic, and goons encouraged him to write more. Little did they realize the writing force that they were about to unleash. In a sense, there is no proper way to introduce what follows. Described as “the best thing since To Kill a Mockingbird,” this compilation describes an epic tale of four amazing badasses conceived on the spot by a young man, who, according to his own words, “i would like to thank the pills that doc gave me for tasting like strawberrys and melting in my mouth.” Resdfru has a new favorite as of 06:02 on Aug 12, 2016 |

I swear the thread was telling him she was masturbating with the showerhead and he should just change it back but he was being weird about it. The goon got obsessed with switching his normal showerhead with one (from Skymall or something) that automatically sprayed you with a soap/water mix. It had a little vessel to hold liquid soap and it mixed in with the water stream, I think. Anyway he acted like he saw this rad product and asked his girlfriend, and she dismissed the idea, and he was just looking for goon opinions. But he'd actually just gone ahead and bought and installed it and was waiting for the girlfriend to get home from work or something. It may have been a troll because IIRC the OP was fixated on this showerhead, and was aghast that anyone would not want this.

This is maybe not quite a "saga", but it is one of my fonder SA memories. Some goon found this site online that would generate video game names using some preset nouns and adjectives, and goons would photoshop the cover art for the pretend game. One of the ones created was Incomprehensible Grizzly Bear Mansion along with a good 'shop, but then it was taken to the next level when GBS mod Gravy Jones started a new thread all about this fake Incomprehensible Grizzly Bear series. Threads were in 09 so there's a bunch of lost images, but fortunately there's a Photoshop Phriday article that has preserved a lot of the better entries here.

Hillary Clintons Thong posted:didnt King ReOL end up reviewing elevators on youtube? Yes and yes. About a decade ago I used to post on a Doom forum where ReOL posted (had no idea of the SA connection then). Holy moly he posted those political grandpa chain mails as threads every day. It was actually enlightening to read about him here after the fact and everything suddenly made sense. I wish I had known about his adventures here when the Doom forums were still going because goddamn the fun would've never died.

I remember running into a bunch of cool stories when I first joined SA. The two I remember the most are Evil Agita writing an awesome saga about falling for a girl in a wheelchair. The other was Moonshine writing about living the American dream because the company he worked for gave his job to other people but forgot to fire him, leaving him to do nothing but chill out in his office all day, pretending to work.
