its really amazing how the actions of goons and mods are so freaking far beyond the pale that its actually impossible for a bystander to believe.

proposal: i am going to make an environmentally sustainable yoga retreat in hawaii

reality: a y2k survivalist paid goons a "food stipend" to help me clearcut a rainforest, dig a road by hand, torture and mutilate animals to death on camera, and bathe in/drink from an improperly filtered kiddy pool that wild hogs poo poo and pissed in

proposal: i am going to make a fun zipline for kids at camp

reality: a goon spent tens of thousands of dollars constructing a machine that kills children, entirely by accident

proposal: a fad diet thread in the exercise forum

reality: a mentally ill man resembling a melted candle, the pied piper of ham joints, told people that eating nothing but eggs and bacon and lard in paint buckets (they were literally buying and eating buckets full of lard in the name of good health) would not only make them lose weight, but was so healthy it would cure heart disease and cancer. an enormous fat powerlifter who cant run for 20 seconds probated and banned anyone who challenged this wisdom until it lead to a man barely in his 20s being prescribed statins.

proposal: a thread about animal husbandry in the pet forum

reality: a moderator unrepentantly killed animals with ac/dc hadoukens and probated people who asked questions

proposal: a forum for "responsible drug users" and "harm reduction"

reality: a man falls through the earth and into parisian catacombs. taking a torch from the wall he spies row upon row of skeletons. grasping the nearest by the shoulders, he shakes it madly, yelling "my nigga have u tried lsd"

The "best" thing about reading old TCC threads is seeing all the permabanned posters and realizing that they are banned for dying from OD'ng, not from shitposting. I think there was literally a poster (posters?) who began with "i'm just gonna start doing some recreational heroin like all the cool peeps around here are doing no worries i know what i'm doing" and their account gets banned after a year or so, having run their entire life off a cliff. I was in my early twenties and still interested in trying out all kinds of poo poo, but reading TCC scared me straight from ever getting involved with serious drugs. (H)arm reduction at work :smith:

Perhaps the worst examples were the posters that went "Hey I'm gonna try [drug]" -> "Yo this owns!" -> "Absolutely ruined my life with this, never ever again" -> some months pass -> "So how about [drug], thinking about getting some more of that..."

and also one very tilted ex-mod who got mad they faced actual consequences for suggesting someone take LSD instead of going to rehab when they said they wanted to stop doing drugs.

i know i've said this before somewhere but this is probably one of the funniest of the sad things i've ever seen on this site. there is legit research into using extremely small doses of LSD to combat addiction, and the mod basically decided that meant taking a massive dose would let a person speedrun rehab like it was TCCGDQ

A lot of the more iconic TCC stuff came from the benzo's thread circa late 00s and early 10s. The terming "eyeballing' become a inside joke as people were literally guessing how much to take of a drug with a dose threshold in the milligrams. The long and short of it was that other then the heroin thread the joose thread was the number 1 spot for people to go "hey, tried this once, was great" followed shortly after with "so, I pretty much ruined my life"

holy poo poo where to begin. I tried just a little and it was great. Slept most of the day. Few weeks later monday, i try a little more. I wake up tuesday night with a broken arm from crashing my motorcycle in a parking lot,, walk 30 miles the wrong direction home, in the middle of the night, Cop pulls me aside and wis wondering where I’m going (home No ID No money, no cellphone, but keys thankfully), I fail a sobriety test as it as 30 or so out raining and I was cold shivering so i think i got some leniancy. Thankfully he gave me a lift. Wakup wednesday to an email that said if I wasn’t in the hospital i was fired, and my fiances father called and said if I called her again he’d get a restraining order.

The joose stories with the ambulance drivers, which I think were actually from Ukraine?, or one of the former Eastern Europe Soviet satellites, were some of the best things ever posted. I don't even know if they were real or another 50-foot-ant style writer but I don't care because they were extremely entertaining.

edit: ahaha I just went searching for them and apparently I posted about this two years ago and had found the link then, which is very handy, thanks me! (link is to first story, the other stories are a few pages later)

No, those things are fungible. Like the $32 in your account doesn't refer to 32 specific bills kept in a file, any dollar you have in a bank is replaceable by any other dollar. Comparatively a ticket to wrestlemania is a unique thing for a specific seat, so that is not fungible.
