IIRC she's also the daughter of the pharaoh, and for some reason the pharaoh wants him to marry her.

Goon had a problem with his neighbor stealing cable by repeatedly splicing off a new connection at the outdoor junction box each time the cable company removed the latest illegal splice. I think the splice was making his internet slow or something equally frustrating. From what I recall, he rigged up something like a Sega TV adapter in such a way that he was able to feed 120v AC straight to the neighbor's TV via connecting it to the spliced cable run going to the neighbor's house. There was a fire involved.

I read this when i think someone in this thread posted it (could also have been the SA sagas thread in pyf) and was slightly disappointed that he didn't actually set flame to his neighbor's house after all the buildup, but I will say this is a solid example of a goon project that kind of actually succeeded, which is quite remarkable.

I sometimes wonder what happened to the guy whose wife had severe comatose brain damage. IIRC she had some minor surgery but ruptured a blood vessel when alone in her car, and by the time she was found and brought to hospital she was very borderline dead from oxygen deprivation. He spent the thread digging deep into therapy and medication and trying to get opinions from qualified specialists on if there was improvement or if he was just deluding himself. It ended sort of suddenly when he mentioned that one of the treatments was some approved-in-europe grey-imported drug that he'd found referenced in a few papers, and a couple of people came down on him hard for it.

Not especially cheerful reading, but I'd love some sort of "X years later".

The thread title contained the terms hypoxic and ischemic if that helps at all and man he was doing so much to try and save her, it broke my loving heart for real

She would go to conventions and buy a dozen Kids In The Hall t-shirts. Her husband wouldn't talk to her for days at a time while compulsively buying Star Wars merchandise. Boxes of their lovely merch filled their spare bedroom. Despite her and her husband both working they had no emergency fund or retirement savings. She insisted she needed to spend 10-15 dollars on "fruffy" deli sandwiches every day even after the thread explained she was putting her unborn child's life at risk from listeria.

At some point she started posting in the thread under a different account with a name that was just an anagram of Blue Story and goons figured it out immediately.

The goon in question is 'frumpykvetchbot', and had nothing to do with the murder. A lot (like, a lot) of goons were making that mistake at the start, which may explain the confusion. They had moved on from associating with the murderer years previously.

Proposal: A goon who acquired land in Hawaii seeks to turn it into an environmentally friendly yoga resort.
Reality: Half a dozen other goons buy a one-way ticket to the Hawaiian jungle to pull down trees randomly, fail to understand how to make gates after someone stole most of their tools to sell for meth, and the only semblance of success achieved is torturing baby animals with pellet guns and sometimes actual guns, until every goon involved eventually forfeits after some very simple questions are asked about what the gently caress they are doing.

Freaked out by two scary burly men in her pen, Lady jumped 3 feet and scrambled out of the pen, dashing off into the jungle. The plan changes. She's now on the menu. We watch her trot off over the hill and into the brush and hold our ground. We know she'll come back out. She's not used to the jungle. Everyone listens for tell-tale oinking and we all reposition, ready to pounce when she emerges.

Nonchalantly, Lady strolls forth. Socratic Moron takes aim with the handgun.

And with the accuracy of a bad guy in a Western, he fires off 6 rounds. One hits Lady straight through the ribcage; she freaks, turns, runs off into the jungle. We wait until the piercing squeals stop and retrieve her.

Thank you.

The original threads are now many years in the past, and recalling those brighter times are increasingly difficult and weird. I am and have been struggling with processing what happened. What used to be happy memories of absolutely extraordinary adventures with my best friends, now forever indelibly sullied with the terrible context of August 10, 2017. I've refused all opportunities for monetizing the tragedy. My hands never touched a dime when I licensed photos to tabloids during the murder trial: All proceeds went directly to the Kim Wall foundation.

In the light of everything that transpired, I'm not looking to explain or defend my actions or inactions any further, and certainly not here. I was ignorant of PM's dark perversions and the attached (which I will surely regret) I hope may serve as my last word on the matter. I included some images since the attachments from the old archived threads have expired long ago. Join me in taking one final look at all this meaningless waste of everything. As always it is difficult to frame this in such a way that it cannot be construed as glorification of a person who deserves only erasure.

In silence let him lie:
No need to waste the foolish tear,
Or heave the windy sigh:
The man had killed the thing he loved,
And so he had to die.

As far as actually doing something irl that doesn't involve murder, cannibalism, and/or a mess... ummm... roleplay that involves basting your "victim" before nibbling/biting them is the only thing that comes to mind. Maybe incorporating ham into your play?
