mermaid shelly iirc wasn't actually a goon, but wound up joining an entirely separate conversation about mermaid camgirls. she was mod-challenged to prove that she was actually a mermaid camgirl herself by putting on a mermaid tail and holding up a sign acknowledging the forums. she went "oh fun!" and shortly after posted a high-quality photo of such, while also holding a katana for added exotic flair. everyone was suitably impressed

This was right around the time I joined SA, so I don't remember it too well, but some goon made a thread about her website. There was a mod challenge for people to post pictures of themselves dressed up as mermaids smoking giant blunts and holding a sign that was some reference about whoever created the thread. She showed up, and got challenged as well, which is when she posted the picture with the katana. The Ask/Tell thread came after that, and then I pretty much lost track of the situation.

There's probably a 5Gig hard drive in a closet or storage that needs to be cleansed of 20 year old porn chicks or wallpapers...

I think one of my favorite...I don't know if I'd call it a saga, but a few morons making a spectacle of themselves was this one Ask/Tell thread several years back. A guy started a thread that was basically "Ask me about eating only meat" and it was pretty much a guy with sub-toddler eating tastes trying to defend himself with one of those comics that have the dinosaurs talking to each other. And then someone else came in to talk about how they "LITERALLY VOMIT" if a vegetable even so much as touches their tongue. See, because they're a supertaster and they just can't tolerate the evil vegetables (hint: that's absolutely not what a supertaster is). It got gas chambered, or goldmined one of the two.

It's probably not nearly as funny as I remember, but I wish I could find it again. It was just so absurd, these two people trying to defend their "I will never ever eat a vegetable" diets.

ETA: The ~supertaster~ I think also got probated or maybe banned for this just hilariously insane "alternate universes" defense of some dude who started an A/T thread about "Ask me about being a dragon" otherkin stuff. A/T was a weird place sometimes, at the time.

I feel like that's one where the mod team killed the thread too early, because I want to know how that insane poo poo ended. Even if it was all bullshit, it was a hell of a story and making that up takes being a giant weirdo. If it wasn't in BCS it would have lived, I think.

I normally ignore bizarrely incorrect perceptions of me that are based on backforming an excuse for not liking me rather than anything I've said or done, even when hilariously wrong (e.g. twice-over not a WASP), but it's hard to imagine how someone came across the notion I'm pro-eugenics when I'm so stridently anti-eugenics that that's what people bitch me out for. I think people have the right to decide whether or not to have biological children with absolutely no regard to their genetics or potential genetics of their children. I don't think people should experience external pressure even in cases like Hunington's or Tay-Sachs, and should not feel any guilt for choosing to have children likely or certain to inherit these or any other conditions. I actually think it's horrifying we're already seeing people congratulate themselves for opting out based on natural human variation like clubbed thumbs. GATTACA poo poo. My reasons for this aren't important and this isn't the place to argue them, but there are plenty of credible reasons not to like me without deciding you dislike me and then ascribing values you think are odious to me in order to justify it to yourself.

Eugenics is poo poo.

Maybe and no. Common knowledge in the fishmechy part of YOSPOS that also regularly updates their goons.xlsx? Maybe. Common knowledge among the normal people? No.
