I have another request: Years ago, in the old Laissez's Faire (LF) forum, there were a couple of memes going around: Riffs on a terrible FEMA coloring book, as lampooned in this front-page article and A widely-derided propaganda chart showing some bullshit correlation between gun ownership and violence rates (I think), which was known as the "gun chart" At one point someone mashed these together; the below image was edited: only, instead of a crudely-rendered tornado and a "good kid award" ribbon, it was instead the gun chart in the background and the kid was wearing a "gun chart award" ribbon. Does anyone still have this? I think I once managed to find the thread in LF again some time ago, but many of the image links had since died.

Yo, I've been trying to find this punk band, and I cannot remember their name. I remember enjoying the record immensely, found it on some blogspot warez fileshare thing, and probably lost it 15 years ago. The band name was some sort of like "(insert pacific island) boys", or "(insert pacific island) punks", some sort of island and I'm sure if that came to me I could remember it and find them. I cannot remember for the life of me and it bugs me every once in a while. They were fairly esoteric and were from the early 80's, the rip i had was crap. It is not Samoan Punks or Angry Samoans. Also if anyone has a good listing of lovely shareware rpgs on windows/dos from the early 90's, I'd love to pore through it, been trying to find a game i remember almost nothing about I played on my dad's laptop. He got it from some "100 games in one!" floppy disk collection and I played it on his super early laptop, which was like magic back then. I still remember how they let you play the 1st level then wanted $30 to keep going and my Dad was not amenable to that.

If you remember anything about this game, you can search within that collection to narrow down your hunt. I know CD-ROMs seem like they're overshooting the "early 90s" mark, but a lot of that software was churned and re-churned to pad out compilations for a long time. But here's MS-DOS shareware if that helps.

There was a text image I read on here a few years ago, I think in one of the pyf awkward/ugly/gross threads or maybe idiots on social media. It was a screenshot of a forum post by a teenage boy who was angry at his sister for *something* but was really bad at articulating himself and nobody could get to the bottom of what he was so angry about. I remember one part of it being that his sister went swimming and had to get her hair wet? Does anyone know what I'm talking about? Tea Bone fucked around with this message at 00:05 on Nov 2, 2021 |

Google “never thought my mom could stoop so low.” I don’t think it was ever clearly established what the sister did or why it made the kid angry. After dozens of posts, it is established that the kid was taken to get his body fat percentage estimated by being lowered into a vat of water.

I remember reading that post ages ago and at the time it made no sense at all to me. Horrifyingly reading it again I almost see the foundation of his complaint, that this was all very annoying for him yet his sister was all casual and got to enjoy it. The "you know how they go to put their hair up but don't really put it up" part is still mystifying though

I thought that meant like, pulling your hair up into a ponytail but just holding it there rather than tying it up.

But I'm also picturing the whole thread occurring at the Terrorist spawn point of Dust2, with all the replies coming through with the radio headset voice. The OP is by himself on the CT side, speaking into his mic in a monotone.

That way you get a knob of hair that stays out of the water, but it isn't really a ponytail? IDK.

I've seen one kid get worked up about another kid putting hot sauce on their own food. In this case it was sister not being annoyed about having to get in some water after she had already done the harrowing experience of taking a shower.

"More about the hair: She skipped the shower around noon. As said same goes with me. Then we took the underwater tests. My sister had to wear tight pants and a sports bra, so she enjoyed every minute of going underwater. Before that she tried to put her hair up but she wasn't allowed to. The doctor said no. So she did to her hair like what I see when I go down to the YMCA and see where girls pretend to pull their hair back."

More vaguely remembered and can't place than been trying hard to find, but: Artwork of a young woman in a convertible. She's not conventionally attractive, but the whole image gives off a very happy and carefree vibe. It's quite colorful. Artist may have a Spanish name, and I vaguely seem to recall she's a character he features in various drawings.

The hair thing is he doesn't like getting wet or wearing tight clothing but somewhat understands that other people sometimes like wearing tight clothes and going into water. He has somehow picked up that when people with long hair are getting in water in the "bad" way they tend to hold their hair up out of the way, but when they're getting in water in the mysterious "fun" way they don't. She wasn't allowed lift her hair out of the way therefore she must have enjoyed herself.

A Youtube video of a very large woman sitting and eating a turkey with a knife and fork. With a very strong New England accent she tells the camera to sit down with her "But we'll be short a chaih" (camera then shows the kitchen chair straining to hold her weight). My dad and I used to laugh a bit about this video years back but I can't find it now. An SA thing from olden times. I asked PYF and they didn't seem to remember: A skinny, somewhat bemused guy in a military uniform on his wedding day with a rotund, not-all-that-pretty bride. There were photoshops where someone made a skinnier, slightly prettier version of the bride from the perspective of someone "with beer goggles" and then an unaltered picture of the bride "the day after". It was mean spirited but one of the earliest SA-related things I remember. Can't find any proof of it on the forums now.
