Yo anyone remember that goonette who posted a video of his father whipping her? Outpour of sympathy, goons breaking down the video frame by frame trying to prove that the crease in the dad's pants is a half-chub, said goonette directing all media inquiry to her online furry boyfriend's porn filled Twitter, etc etc, it was an amazing shitshow to see unfold and I wonder if there's anything left of it

Holy Moly! DARKSEID IS!

Anyone have the link to the thread where some guy from the UK was in Key West (or adjacent) for a wedding while Hurricane Irma made landfall? He refused to evacuate despite multiple goons repeatedly explaining how dangerous staying was, was showing pictures of his eighth story hotel room where they were using sheets and curtains to soak up water coming through the balcony, which was flooded with three feet of water?

And then the motherfucker (or maybe one of his roommates) ends up on national news and was super-smug about the whole ordeal while people literally died and were permanently displaced from their homes.

Yeah, that was Jose, and he was in Miami. I just went through my own post history to find you the link, bc I know I posted in that thread as my father lives in Key West. I couldnt get in touch with him at the time and was hoping goons would be my usual source of boots-on-the-ground reporting as far as whether KW had been blown out to sea.

Unfortunately I'm not seeing anything I posted. Pretty sure it was just the annual Hurricane Hoedown thread in GBS.

I think we've had multiple goons put their lives on the line during hurricanes. There was that one guy responsible for keeping SA up during Katrina and another one named Justin or something who posted live during a storm.

No one ever said we were smart people.

Katrina dude wasn't even a goon, just an engineer who worked for the company that hosted SA in 2005.

The Naked King of Shoreditch was a goon, however, and was not afraid of a bomb threat that caused the London police to completely evacuate his neighborhood.

Every hurricane season it gets a little weird seeing all these disaster groupies get all horned up hoping a huge cat 5 makes landfall and destroys an entire state. I've gone through a few hurricanes and they're not as scary as going through tornadoes. I used to have a picture I took from my buddy's back porch of a tornado touching down right behind us. I watched it for a good couple of seconds before I realized just what the gently caress I was doing and ran down to the basement to join the rest of my friends. We actually just kinda hung out there and drank while it ripped through his neighborhood. Knocked down a few houses on his street.

I'm pretty sure there was a thread once along the lines of PYF Dumbest/Most depressing gaming moments, and some Goon mentioned being so obsessively invested in the same game that they missed out on visiting their dad when he was on his death bed because getting video game items was that important.

I totally remember that. They were talking about all the things they missed during their WoW addiction, iirc. I think they realized their issues and got treatment.

This one was the guy who posted a thread saying "CPS took my kid away this morning, what do I do :(. They said my trailer was too messy." And then people asked him to post pictures and it was a hoarder's disaster area and then it came out that he had just posted in the PC parts thread budgeting out thousands of dollars for upgrades. But then he and his wife cleaned the place up, he stopped playing WoW, and got his daughter back. Feel good thread of the decade.

I remember this, I don't have any links sadly. (I think it was E/N?)

The thing I remember was his daughter who was 5 or 6(?), used to get ready for school, feed herself, and go since he was usually sleeping after raiding all night. Well, she did it on a Sunday, found out school was closed and was discovered in a park with her backpack on just killing time I guess. I think that's when CPS got involved. Some goon who was doing a "I'll draw posts that you link" made an emotionally devastating strip of that.

There is a happy ending: he and his wife got scared straight. He got rid of his gaming rig, strictly rationed his computer time, enrolled in school. They got a new apartment, and if not exactly pristinely clean, it was tidy. And they got their kids back.

It's one of those things where someone is completely unaware of where they need to be in life with that level of responsibilities and raising children, and when they expected a modicum of support and agreement everyone went in the other direction, pointing out all the absurdities and disgusting conditions and suddenly something clicked.

Especially since once his $3k computer budget was brought up, he got mad and said he actually only spent $2300 since he had to spend some money on "necessities" for the infant. The response to that was even more savage then the initial jokes about his computer costing more then the trailer home.
