Did I ever. Remember it as if it were yesterday. Soon as I woke, I went to empty my bowels - my favorite part of the day. Defecatin' to the sunrise - downright glorious.
I've been perusing and lurking the last few days and lol at the old heads being weirdos about not being assholes

i left and stopped even lurking after the 16 election because i figured the toxx purge would make an already gross but navigable environment a complete pit. Really happy to see the shift here, it's an amazing difference while still being loving hilarious

anyway

was just thinking about this after all the talk about really expensive internet food orders:

when 'gotta pay to register' started, $10 was a lot more in value and also harder to spend online than it is today, but it also wasn't TOO much or an insurmountable feat. now it's like the easiest thing ever and less than the cost of lunch in most places.

i don't know where i was going with that, i'm kind of high.

returning to lurking and checking back for screamy updates

I was watching simpsons at 0.75 without knowing until a scene where homer and bart were getting back massages at a hotel and the noises they were making were super drawn out like a youtube poop
i said something wrong in class and a furry corrected me and it was embarrassing.

Holy Moly! DARKSEID IS!

Posting for posterity I suppose, but my terrible secret is for all these years I’ve had a Lowtax-given name from a random name change thread (I mostly posted in BSS at the time) and a Schmorky-commissioned av from long before I knew about the issues with either person.

I was here as early as ‘04, probably by way of Portal of Evil. I’m not proud of who and what I laughed at way back when. But despite all the cruel, misguided elements of this site this is also where I found resources as a deeply closeted queer person (yes I’m gay lol) and to this day am aquatinted with folks around the globe because of it.

I like to think someday someone will be combing through this thread specifically in researching how the first century of the Internet impacted history and I can’t stress enough that while it made us stupid, it made a lot of us better people. I found Heifer International and Friends of Matènwa through it - remember years ago when we all sent bees around the world? And when those cute kids held up “THANK YOU GOONS” signs? Those kids in Haiti are graduated by now, or just about, and that school won a huge grant that’s going to take the program even further.

No matter how bad it gets, don’t ever give up on yourself. Even if you’ve done some awful poo poo you can always choose to atone and make your present and future better. I’m angry at what Kyanka chose, and sad he couldn’t see beyond that. 13Pandora13 you’re wonderful, and LA and CYB much love to you and the kids and all of yours.

So in this thread so far we have:

- a mentally ill fan who posted cumshots and thinks Rich was the best person ever
- a Two Worlds update (holy poo poo he turned out fine??)
- something about a dead fish in a freezer?
- a whole lot of olds coming back, including Frags
- multiple drama bombs
- Mangosteen returns!
- reminiscing of old times

poo poo this thread is like a day and a half old but I know I'm missing 95% of things that happened because this thread just does not stop

What else happened? Whatever it is this is the perfect encapsulation of SA and a great :gamefreak: to Rich

wait, what happened to Two Worlds?

It’d be pretty rad if he was doing ok

He showed up here sometime last year trying to get people to join his discord. A few did out of morbid curiosity and unfortunately, he’s exactly the same. Then he got banned again.

Something Awful is a drat entertaining place and, were it not to exist, I'd probably read more books. So add that to the list of indictments.

I'm honestly in awe that Lowtax made hundreds of thousands of dollars selling the site and yet just a year later he's talking about fleeing the country partly because of owing the government money. Like, how badly did he gently caress up his taxes and how was $400k not enough money to pay it off?

Shaq did it in a day.

SA was a lot of fun back in the early 2ks. I announced the birth of my first son here and didn't get poo poo on.

Shaq has to have special expensive shoes made for his giant freakish clown feet so it makes sense but its harder to feel sympathy for someone that probably spent their money on pictures of regular sized feet.
