What kind of lovely government is put into jeopardy by a bdsm muscle hunk that wants to gently caress a giant leering rose?

God I would never have got there. The angle of the photo makes it look like one big one word in white rather than two words on top of each other. I don't even see any of those letters on there. I'm glad the torture is over though, hell of a whale.

I knew it looked familiar, but when I looked through my dad's shelf I didn't spot it. He probably has it somewhere though.

So bittersweet. The destination was reached but perhaps the journey was better. We should all read that book now.

Just caught up on this thread and it's been a fun ride. I have a few, if anyone can help! 1. When studying abroad in Scotland in 2005 or 2006, the place I stayed had a TV and there were like 4 channels on it. There was some kind of comedy show on one night where it seemed like viewers sent in videos of tricks they did, and one has stuck with me. I wish I remembered the channel, but we just had the basic 4. Anyway, a guy sent in a video demonstrating an escape trick, where he tied himself to a bed without a shirt on, and a sheet was stretched 2 feet above his chest. Then a hot iron was placed on the sheet, and he had to untie himself before the iron burned through the sheet and landed on his bare chest. But like, he didn't! So it burnt through and then burned his chest really bad and they showed pictures of it healing weeks afterward. I know this is pretty vague but it was wild enough to stick with me. 2. I remember seeing a movie on TV at my grandfather's house when I was a kid, probably in the 90s. It was set in what I'm thinking was 40s to 50s America, and the scene I remember was a game of strip poker where the men had white t-shirts on and were cheating with a mirror so the women would have to take off more of their clothes. It's possible there's also a huge fight on a football field, like with knives and sticks and stuff, but I might be conflating two different movies. Searching for strip poker and cheating just gets a bunch of porn stuff, which this definitely wasn't. 3. A quote I read somewhere which I thought was Nietzsche, but I've never been able to find it again, so I'm probably wrong, but it went something like "You want more religion in society? Be honest! You just want more police officers." It might have been from a letter or something, and I feel like the person who said is fairly well known, like maybe Freud?

A short story about a man stuck in a shifting labyrinth. He uses number theory or some specific methodology to discern his place and how to escape and attempts to leave On the way he encounters another man who scoffs at the idea of number theory and that actually his methodology (spectroscopy or something) is the correct method for understanding the true nature of the labyrinth The firstan eventually fails at comprehending the labyrinth and starts again assuming a defect in his calculations The whole thing acts as a morality tale about science It might be a ted Chiang book

I registered for this forum in 2007 specifically because a thread about some guy finding and posting his room mate's 60+ page, stream-of-consciousness sonic the hedgehog fan fiction porn and posting it here, and I thought it was so goddamn funny I couldn't not register. The "novel" was this horrific monstrosity, the entirety of which read like some idiot teenager's stream-of-consciousness sonic porn fever dream that went something like... "and then sonic said hey tails i want to suck your penis and then tails said yes that sounds good i leik you to suck on my penis and then sonic picked up tails penis and then put it in his mouth mmm that is good said tails and then dr egg man walk in and said hey wait and then" for like... a full 60 pages. Then a couple of voice actors recorded excerpts of the thing, which were later played over the stereo at a party the author attended without him ever knowing they'd been discovered beforehand. Anybody have that sonic porn document?

I don't remember this but there was another thing that was similar. Guy posted his roommate's self insert story. It was basically about himself except he was a champion at magic cards, and had a holographic AI girlfriend named Thirteen or Seven or something similar. Everyone was struck not just by the poor writing but also by the way it was wish fulfillment of such lovely wishes. People started writing their own sequels imitating the writing style and details from the original. I think the roommate was named Brian and these stories became known as Bri-fi stories. Goons found Brian's contact and he made an account then joined the thread.

Oh man I forgot about that. Pretty sure that ended up being someone's avatar for a while. I know all the stories were at one point put up on a website. I really hope it's still up somewhere.

I don’t have the document... but here is the thread itself, if you want to reread it. There are some long excerpts from the story posted in the thread, if that helps. Relevant to the current conversation, I also found the original Brian-san thread, along with an off-site mirror of some of the stories.

Amusingly, if the Sonic thread is a reference to Sonic in “The Search for Love,”, I archived a bunch of that nonsense too. However, it’s been eaten by Tindeck’s closure, so I think all the links have to be updated to point to archive.org somehow.

A movie or TV show where a man kills someone by digging a ramp off a road on a corner and then somehow the victims car drives into it and then he buries the car.
