The first time I came here, I think it was about 2006, and there was this hilarious topic where a goon had a giant wasps nest on his swing set and lit a huge fire under it to destroy it. Does anyone else remember that?

I was instantly addicted to this websight and have never looked back.

Around 2000 a teacher caught me watching a JeffK animation, right at the point where he installs Linux and his penis begins to grow to ludicrous proportions.

edit: that's not a thread. I can't remember an exact thread, but there was a trend of posting "just got a digital camera tell me what to take pictures of" threads when point and shoot digital cameras became affordable.

your edit made me remember bigpeelers descent from popular mspainting fake adventure threads to creepily sneaking pictures of some lady in her house that he was working on or something

The one I remember reading most clearly, and the one that got me to register because I was laughing so hard I couldn't breathe, was where a teacher found a seventh grader's "erotic novel" and proceeded to post it.

"chh she sucked her teeth" has always stood out in my brain as a never forgotten line of whatever the hell the whole thing was

i dont remember the literal first thread i ever clicked on, but one that stands out from back then was the thread for Awful Fantasy 3

I was lurking for years before I actually registered. By 2008 I was completely taken with GWS.

The thread that got me to shell out :10bux: was a writing contest for A Commonplace Book of the Weird. Proud to say I took second place, even if my story was way too long to make it into the book itself.

It was some baseball thread in SAS that was debating the merits of Justin Morneau's 2006 AL MVP. I tried defending him winning it and everyone assumed I was trolling because I wasn't a disciple of sabermetrics.

A thread in GBS about skinwalkers sometime in the mid 2000's. It was fascinating stuff. Unfortunately these days if you post anything about the paranormal you are instantly ridiculed.

ZerglingMinor's thread about the incensed customer calling while he was working front desk at the hotel was one of the best things I had read in a long time. RIP ZM

I have really vague memories of the introduction of the goon dating threads in e/n and someone getting a Chumbawamba tattoo. AxeManiac maybe?

First learned of the forums from Photoshop Friday posts on the front page that a friend showed me Freshman year in high school. As far as the first thread I remember reading, it was The Atari Killer.

and
Review of the game Thundra.

Although Space Robots came after Hello, Welcome to ICQ I don't remember if I read it before or after. I think I binged through them later than that.

Was this the mayor wilkins one where he tried to give a pep talk to the collective masses of gbs that was at that time in the "I'm going to be a virgin forever" phase of life? Where he was like "I'm a fat disgusting slob, and if I can get a woman then so can you"

Because if so that's the one I remember
