This thread is now about posting your favorite PYF forum sagas

Definitely the saga of the person who pretended to be a disabled woman in the Post Your Picture thread.

Hey look! A riddle thread!

Boy I sure hope no one mentions that stupid eye color... poo poo.

Every time there's a riddle/logic problem thread in GBS someone mentions that stupid brown eyes/blue eyes problem and we get pages of people posting about how they don't understand, people explaining, and then MORE people refusing to read the thread and asking the same drat questions over again.

Can't this thing be put up there with .9999=1 and planes on a treadmill?

The problem, for those of you fortunate enough not to know:

When did everyone turn on 50 Foot Ant?

I personally always hated his stupid STDH stories. What I don't know is why goons ever tolerated him in the first place, especially when people were already making fun of posters like Angry Bee Dance during 50FA's popular streak.

I remember the village revolution story from LF days. It was Fish Steer A Dhow (although he kept changing his name). He said he was born in Sudan but adopted as a child and raised by Americans, then returned home to meet his original family. Everyone believed it, including me at least for a while. There was a great line about how his sister wanted to bring her child to come live with him in the US, but he didn't think he could manage to have them, what with all his responsibilities as an SA mod.

I was under the impression that everyone understood that nothing fish steer a dhow said was ever true. I thought he was a 50 Foot Ant/Humpermonkey-type figure, but "entertaining" in an unfunny sort of way instead.

it was so nice when there were multiple male goons calling my parents' house and harassing them and me when I was 15 :keke:

I was a bad poster but I was also a teenage girl and I'm pretty sure I didn't do anything terrible enough to deserve that kind of poo poo

Thankfully I never had anything like that happen, but I was barraged with racial slurs AND accusations that I was only pretending to be black, which was bewildering.

Crumbunist was the one that was basically the internet detective big brother right? Always watching and he knew everything you'd ever done online?

Honestly, I read a loooooottttt of Helldump back in the day and I'm pretty sure Crumbunist just had really good Google/Tineye-fu, a fantastic forums memory, and a Helldump tab open at all times. He was fast and thorough, but I don't think I ever saw him post anything of truly inexplicable origin.

Helldump was good but it didn't have enough good content to sustain an entire subforum. I really miss the goons.txt .docx .odt .jpg .png threads for just collecting dumb poo poo goons said and did. I think nowadays if somebody says something dumb or lovely they're way more likely to just be called out in the same thread which results in a lot of choice goonsay being hard to find.

The SCOFF manifesto thread in PHIZ is basically just goons.txt for the modern age. It's wonderful.

My favorite callout thread was when someone from the diving sub forum got an insanely technical, detailed call out from another diver . It was something like " Goon Diver 666 only submerge dives with a psi 134 mask " with the other goon responding in kind with an equally technical comeback. It quickly devolved into just the two of them slap fighting over diving with all the HD superstars just looking on kind of baffled, trying to figure out who to call a human being.

That thread was called "Zocrowes is an egregious stroke", and I have no idea where it is, unfortunately. It was hilarious.

edit: never mind, here it is -- thank you to the person who PMed me the link :D

I really loving hate the term Retsupurae

I get that it's an intentional weebing of Let's Play but I still hate it

The second-most annoying part is that if you pronounce it how it's spelled, it sounds like "let's ply". Shouldn't it be spelled "retsupurei"?

I feel like the story of Eggplant Wizard keeps evolving. First it was werewolf porn, then it was werewolf rape porn, then it was werewolf incest rape porn -- I don't think there's any way to know what it actually was, at this point. :psyduck:

The same thing happened with Boniface and Tony Danza's Ho, where first it was a coffee cup, then it was a full coffee cup, then it was Boniface cheating on his wife or something.

What was the story with Icequeen?

Her era took place just as I was starting to seriously think about feminism, and I remember wondering if I disliked her because of internalized misogyny or because she actually sucked. I came to the conclusion that she actually just sucked, though it's been so long that who knows how I'd feel about her now.

Anyway, I went to her SAclopedia entry, which made a mention of Shark Week 2007, whose SAclopedia entry contains this link, which appears to be where most of the story about her is.

I don't remember Franco being horrible compared to all the other mods at the time but he was and continues to be extremely boring which is why it's weird so many people even bother responding to or remembering him. Really he was just a pretentious dude who was as bad of a mod as most of the others were then

Honestly the only mod I remember being bad was NotJust4Breakfast. I otherwise don't really remember mods at all.

This might be more for the "forgotten forum thing" thread but does anyone have links to, I'm having trouble describing it but it was like a gbs thread where people talked about how their parents were mean to them, and it spawned a FYAD thread with mocking stories about how their dad bought them a "worlds shittiest homo" mug for their birthday and so on

I don't remember this but I do remember a similar kind of thread, where people talked about poo poo their mom/dad did, but in context they were clearly talking about their pets (not an actual example, but it would be something like, "My dad threw up on the kitchen floor and then scratched me when I was cleaning it up").
