Ursine Catastrophe posted:arguably zyborne clock by dint of “showing up in fallout new vegas” tbh SA memes and catchphrases also made it into the GBA pokemon games since translators who worked on it were goons. Platystemon posted:He had a portrait of himself hanging in the bathroom. iirc didn't he go out of his way to try and never catch his face/the portrait in the pictures he uploaded to SA? Just like the unfinished toilet closet or whatever? But yeah totally had one of those "face on a Napoleonic general's body" portraits folks sometimes share of celebrities only with his face.

FactsAreUseless posted:The real home inspector's name was Brian, and every episode he would go through and make a checklist of problems, and every episode the 'clients' would go "hmmmmm nah, seems like it's definitely the vague ghost explanation." You could just see the hatred on his face. I love that show, the ghost historical connections are usually incredibly tenuous even by ghost show standards (I think one episode connected it to a train crash in a nearby town before the house they were inspecting was even built because the train line ran near the house)

bEatmstrJ posted:My cousin had a problem with her no-show socks slipping off her feet all the time so she decided to do something about it. A few years later, Hidey Socks was born. Together, my cousin and I created no-show socks that won't slip off your feet, then decided to make them even more awesome by adding genuine Swarovski crystals for extra bling. After being a member of this fine community for so long I decided I would like to give back a little so we are offering a 30% discount on all orders when you enter coupon code SAGOONS at checkout in addition to FREE shipping for orders over $20. literally "those socks you get so people can't see you're wearing socks, but with a strip of sock around your ankle"

It was the first thing I read on the forums back before I made an account so it sticks out. Sending Pittbull to Alaska would get my vote then since I had to explain online polls and SA to multiple older family members. My mom also heard the CIA Benghazi poo poo but dismissed it.
