I meant 2007, stupid autocorrect. Seeing people go from dismissing T&E as monkey cheese horseshit to the modern community of people slapping their knees at like a decade of On Cinema deep lore continuing to pay dividends and appreciating what fantastic satire their work is makes for a great ride.

The Terry Prachett thread in the Book Barn is active, and is from august 2007. That threat started before he died. Hell, that thread started before he revealed he was diagnosed with alzheimers. Reading that thread and knowing what's coming was difficult.

On the other hand, that thread also started before all the Discworld books had been written, so seeing people speculate on the content of new books and getting it hilariously wrong was pretty neat.

The thread on D&D webcomic Order of the Stick is almost 13 years old and covers 2/3 of the comic's total run (in pages, not years). D&D itself has had two new editions since then.

Gambit from the X-Men posted:

My school appears to have a separate section for people that are the weird kids. And there's enough of them, that's for sure. And they all hang out together.

First, there's Doug Ellis. Or Jason. He goes by Jason now, and I don't know why. Anyways, he's this scrawny rat-faced gently caress, always seems to be wearing tight tight tight black jeans that could pass for being painted on his emaciated body, and a big bulky K-Mart style winter coat. He's just a general gently caress-up. Once, he walked up to me to inform me that his skanky and (believe it or not) also rat-faced sister was scared of me. Because, you know, I'm obviously concerned with the going-ons of the Incest Household.

He has a friend, named Mike Maroot, or Marut, or some similar spelling. This kid looks almost exactly like a fat Kurt Angle. Except for being a lot shorter, not shaving his head enough so that it looks like a chick's pubes when she's trying to make excuses for not shaving for a few weeks, and he's got more zits than a Linkin Park fan club meeting. And he thinks he's a bad-rear end. He acts like a general rear end in a top hat to everyone, throwing milk cartons. Once, one hit me and I told him that if another one hit me, I'd make him my prison bitch. I've been safe since then.

The only shame is that he and Doug don't have the same lunch anymore, like they did last year. Often Mike would sit down and meditate, like some sort of Burger King-sponsored Loser Buddha, and Doug would come up and antagonize him, resulting in a chase. Mike would run as fast as he could, and he would jiggle. Oh God, how he would jiggle. It was a natural force, I say, like the tides, or bird's migrating. No human could, or should, be able to jiggle like that.

Another weird-rear end bastard at the school is this guy named Ricky. I think he's a freshman, but I really don't (want) to know. He's about 5'11", thin, albino pale, and due to the flat top he had at the beginning of the year, looked exactly like Vanilla Ice. He occasionally picks fights with this chubby loser with a white guy afro, a high pitched voice, and an ear ring. These fights are brilliant. Ricky will stand there, like Concentration Camp Brock Lesnar, then take a step. Pause. And punch. It is seriously the single worst punch that I've ever seen in my life.

Then there were Liz, the school's resident goth chick, who graduated my Freshman year. Except that she was pretty cool, just weird in that she'd randomly scream out "anal sex." Actually, it was fun. It was fun to scream it out with her. I was that weird kid my freshman year. gently caress! Actually no, neither me nor her really fit the bill in that we didn't dress in K-Mart gear like all other weirdos seem too.

Fuckin' Reidsville.
