Haha yes, it was most definitely him. I went to a few Montreal goon meets that he attended. At my first one, I was warned not to sit near him since he liked to just randomly pick up girls and guess their weight (without their consent). I think he also brought a spider to a meet once. He would mostly sit there doing crossword puzzles and be awkward as gently caress.

i do this as well but im a chubby chaser, so usually it ends with me making a sound like a dodge neon trying to start, they don't budge, and i say "Well i deadlift 275 so you're a gently caress load more than that" and they get all insecure for some reason

Gotta say, this thread has probably confirmed cps goon as the greatest saga, based on how often it comes up.

I swear there was a thread that someone made where they illustrate some of the more well known SA stories and that's how we found out the dude turned his life around and got his kids back.

I'm like halfway through the "Death March Across America" thread and holy poo poo. It's the E/N well post spot-on. Tons of qualified, experienced hikers were like "you're an idiot because you haven't tested your gear, you haven't trained or prepared for this at all, and all your gear sucks." All his replies were laden with :smuggo: or he'd simply avoid questions like "how far have you hiked in a day?" Everyone, everyone told him how stupid and unfeasible taking a baby stroller on loving hiking trails was and sure enough it broke 6 miles in and he only made it 5 days with one rest day included. Jesus christ. And if he never posted the thread he would have kept with his original route of trudging along the loving highway in Nevada and other hellscapes in the middle of summer. He even acted smug about changing his route, which was obviously due to tons of goons telling him it was literally suicide. And people gave him like 3 grand for a five-day hike. drat that saga made me feel like I'm not a fuckup at all compared to Muerte.

Another crazy e/n guy tried to go on a death march recently. I can't find the thread right now but he was a paranoid schizophrenic who believed that he was the reincarnation of some climate change researcher, and he wanted to walk across Canada to raise awareness of global warming or something. Once again, he made it like 10 miles before giving up.

It's really not interesting enough to re-read since he deleted his 30+ blogger accounts, but key points are that he made it WAY further than Muerte (160 km) and upon giving up decided to use his cart to bring food and water every day to a homeless camp. So he did end up helping people :3:

For twelve years, you have been asking: Who is John Galt? This is John Galt speaking. I am the man who loves his life. I am the man who does not sacrifice his love or his values. I am the man who has deprived you of victims and thus has destroyed your world, and if you wish to know why you are peris

Let's not forget this creepy detail that printer guy included in his story.

quote:

By the time I get there, I'm wet all over from sweating in the +90 degree heat outside and carrying a heavy motherfucking HP Deskjet printer. The first thing I see upon entering her room (my first time in a girl's bedroom) are some panties on her bed.

After the initial shock of seeing such a horrific sight for the first time, I setup the printer and get my job done. However, I did consider sniffing the lingere when she left the room once, but with the wuss that I am, I just ended up staring at them the whole while. That was a sarcastic joke for those of you too stupid to realize that

":lol: Totally just joking, guys. :pervert:"

This fucking day....
The SA-Tan Saga

Basically there was a Awful link of the Day (ALOD) that was about this Japannese dude fetish of muscled dudes punching women in the stomach and making them puke. Lowtax posted it, goons found and mocked it, and every one had a good time.

This lead do the dude creating a female personfication of SA and punching her in the stomach in retaliation. Lowtax then went to the forums asking for the best artist to create a new comic to fight back and it just spiraled out from there. Each sub-section got their own SA-Tan(the FYAD ones got really out there), the retaliation comic was really good and creepy and every one had a fun time. Sadly all the images are lost in time now.

One of my favorite threads was back in 2009 or 2010 and challenged everyone to make a costume just with the things in their bedroom. It was a fantastic display of goon creativity. I'll post in the lost thread thread and see if I can dig it up.

Parahexavoctal posted:

It's a stick. It used to be a broom handle, or possibly a mop handle. I had a shorter one, but I forgot it on the subway a few days ago. Oh well.

I'm a bit fidgety, so it gives me something to do with my hands. "Like a pacifier" isn't too inaccurate, although it certainly isn't flattering. Sometimes I use it as a walking stick when I'm going up a hill.

That's pretty much it. The balancing and twirling are little (very little) tricks I taught myself just to see if I could do them. It's like juggling, I guess. Amusing for the person who does it, and - unless that person is incredibly skilled - annoyingly boring for everyone else.

I don't talk to the stick.

I always like that thread because you can skip from the first page of "I work for a startup and you'll win motorcycles" with goons going "Bought three" to the 7th page with "What you need to do is contact the FBI." and "Holy poo poo nobody suggest anything illegal going after the guy that scammed you"
