long story short, grover thought of himself as a lieutenant colonel (and called himself one) because his government contractor paygrade was on par with one

I remember there was some GBS 2.0 superstar who said they were a woman and posted pics, but then someone found out that the woman in the pictures was some lady you could commission to hold up any sign on tumblr or deviantart or something.

The ones that puzzle me most are the goons who stumble into a funny situation, say something dumb or whatever, then try to defend themselves against an entire thread of people hooting and hollering. Just stop posting! You can be objectively in the right, continuing to argue still won't accomplish anything because dunking on posters is a social activity. Yet there's an endless supply of people who've been here for years yet haven't figured that out.

i liked the streamer who spent years pretending he was wheelchair bound and accidentally blew it by literally just getting up and walking off onscreen, and instead of going 'i mean some wheelchair bound people can walk a little bit depending on how they're feeling' he just had his girlfriend react like shed just seen the resurrection of christ

I'll explain, but it's really stupid. Didn't intend to make up a character at first, just registered for LP's and stuff but my life is really boring and I liked reading E/N so I had an idea for a crazy e/n thread I planned on stretching out for a long time. I just googled for pictures to use (which is really inconsiderate in hind sight but I figured I was just making up a story and it was harmless as they were public) as I wanted to lay some groundwork so when my story started becoming unbelievable and people dug up posts it'd seem more believable. Anyhow I got carried away with posting and shouldn't have used someone else's pictures. It was all a dumb idea anyways and I regret it. Everyone return to normal and I'll do better things with my time and just feel really embarrassed about this whole thing from and never post again.
