Was supposed to go to a goon meet here in Arizona but I was too drunk to go. If you know about the goon meets they used to have way back then it sounds impossible but there ya go. :shrug:

Dude, ix-nay on the oice-vay.
I've gone to some goon meets (like, 5 groups) and everyone was awesome.

Alas, I was too late getting to the firing range and shoot micromancer's guns. I had even picked up some sweet ammo for everyone since I don't own a gun. I asked someone else when the group that was there when he got there left, and he said about 15 minutes before. Then he said,"Yeah. One of 'em was wearing a kilt..." I was like,"Yep, sounds like the goon group to me."

I didn't have anyone's phone number so tried pm'ing the people at the meet to find out where to go next, but because they are normal people and not shut-ins like myself, they didnt check their pm's for for several hours, so I was already back home. They were super nice and apologetic, and it was completely my fault, so the apologies were completely unnecessary. They had an awesome time.

Basically, from the impression I've gotten from the goons I've met in person, I'd have to say that goons is good people. I'm not including our pedophiles, rapists, stalkers, or murderers in that assumption though. But i have not met one of those (that I know of).

You should have showed the picture of Micromancer lounging with his guns while wearing his banana hammock to the range employee and been like, HAVE YOU SEEN THIS MAN?

It's funny, when there are hurricanes rolling through all the Florida goons come out of the woodwork. There are a bunch of us. After the hurricane passes we all go silent again.

The Florida thread moves slowly but surely. Most people are central or North except for me, Skoll who upsets everyone, and the dude who was trying his hand at being a puppet master and it all went a bit weird. It's a pretty chill thread though.

A history teacher in high school (Maryland) was a goon. He asked if I had stairs in my house and I didn't get it at the time.

One time a guy we invited to our DoD clan 18 years ago told us he was moving to Pennsylvania. Turns out he was in my class. I was a stereotypical white goon and he was a hardass Latino dude. It was funny, we nodded to each other and that was it.

Talked and played plenty online, but never ever in real life. Sorta like how Facebook is nowadays. I'm sure I've meet goons in passing, but my outward appearance doesn't out me as anything but a lazy white guy. So, they don't clock me.

Posted a blurb in SH/SC or YOSPOS sometime in the early/mid 2000's about my company needing a couple people for generic computer janitor work, and we ended hiring two completely normal guys who were going to college nearby. UTD Richardson.

Awesome funny guys, many laughs had, they graduated and moved on to good jobs. Haven't talked to them in 10 or so years.

Only "goons" I've met in person.

My life is a string of goon meets, holy poo poo. I've met all types in all places over many years. My social circle exploded when I made a nuisance of myself with Eve goons a few years ago. I've made some good friends who are decidedly not psychopaths or grognards because of that.

These days, though, most of the folks I've become close with are thanks to the Discord server I spun up two years ago looking for chill goons to play Overwatch with. I see a bunch of them in person fairly regularly and plan on meeting as many as possible as money and time allows. Knowing that group has really enriched my life and I'm lucky to be a part of that community.

I've only had two bad experiences and they're both pretty tame. I think it was gooncon in Chicago in like, 2005 (maybe), where I made an rear end of myself at the prize drawing/kick-off panel and then was so mortified I didn't mingle for long and went home.

Another involved a similar story to the OP, meeting a goon for weed. She sent me some pictures of herself which I thought was kinda strange since I was just looking for a buddy to smoke with and gave me her address. I was lonely and sober enough to roll through and go hang out. She greets me at the door with a big hug and invites me inside, proceeding to introduce me to her husband. She didn't say poo poo about being married and he did NOT look happy. After sitting down and being turned down for a hand shake he asks "so are you a fuckin' goon or what? You come here to smoke our weed?" Uhhhhh... What followed was kind of a blur because the second the wife left the room the husband said some really lovely things about her so I skeedaddled ASAP.


Honestly, folks, go make goon friends. You'll make friends through them and thanks to a common bond you'll click quickly. Hell I know of at least one married couple that met because of the forums. At the bare minimum you'll have done something outside your comfort zone and come away with a story to tell.

drat you met her too?


Also I just remembered I got spotted as a goon during a loving job interview. It was the last of FOUR loving INTERVIEWS and they were taking me out to lunch. I hate that poo poo. They asked me what my hobbies were and I told them I was playing too much eve online and one of them straight up asked "are you a goon?" I stammered a bit and said yes and he said he was too and said goons were the "assholes of the internet". I got the job. Then I lost it. Good times.

met eve goons, met gun goons, met lit goons. They were all pretty chill.

Pretty sure I met a SJW GBS goon, this was back during touchy feely gbs, and she was ranting publicly about how SA was a better forum than everywhere, was kind of a massive landwhale, and was at an anime con.
