FlyWF,
What about do you refrigerate coke thread?

[/ QUOTE ]

Are you talking about the upside down can thread or another one(who doesn't refrigerate beverages? Oh, man, just the possibility of that thread existing is tilting me.)?

[/ QUOTE ]


I first thought of the upside down can thread, then I thought Pudge actually meant:

assuming you know enough about me to answer this,

-what's something relevant about me you think people don't know, and something people perceive about me that isn't actually true?
-what would happen if Anacardo and I met in real life?

[FlyWf]

Upside down can thread is stupider, warm coke is weirder. Personal tastes vary, but putting cans upside down in your fridge for cleanliness purposes is just dumb.

Yea, upside down is dumb, but at least Iggy knew it wasn't normal. How racer had never before been exposed to the idea of cold soda boggles the mind.

I mean, I know a couple things about you that most people probably don't unless they have a good remembery, but nothing really relevant. I mean, I guess if people don't know about your accident and resulting effects that's a pretty big deal, but I would basically lump those people into a category of "Not knowing anything about nath" so I'm not sure it really counts.

Something people perceive about you that really isn't true? Hmm, that's a tough one and I probably don't know enough about you IRL to answer it well enough. If I had to guess though, I would say that people put a much stronger emphasis on dependency and pathetic-ness (fake words what what) on your pjn-esque drug usage than would actually be true.

[/ QUOTE ]

It would most likely be a ground breaking social experiment, with a small but not impossible chance of full scale war. Basically, from what I can gather (and feel free to correct me if I'm wrong) you two both masterfully play the anti-hero. Two old fashioned guys down on their luck in any number of ways who happen to soothe themselves with very different remedies. However, it's not the different remedies that cause the friction, I believe, so much as the attempt at the same spotlight.

If we were to get you guys in a room I think it would start with both of you talking about how bad this and that is and forcing one's hardship on the other. However, it would most likely end in drunken hugs and commiseration over similar feelings and happenings through both of your young lives. I mean, yeah I think the two sets of stories would differ vastly in their actual content, but the feelings evoked from both would be strikingly similar.

Of course, both of you bringing a posse to the same party would probably end much worse. Think, Beat It knife fight.

TMS,

When I think of TSC, it's not the 10kth post (however, that was epic seeing someone actually reach that milestone. fwiw, my 10kth is me telling FFK to f off). No, my memory of TSC is his yankees rant:

I love searching for TSC posts around October of 2004 and using +TONY +CLARK to find it.

t0ne,

Speaking of TSC, why was there a backlash against him? Before my time, I think. I always enjoy reading his posts, he knows his stuff in Sports (although he likes soccer though, LOL), and seems like an all-around good cat. Overexposure backlash from back when he posted more?

Also, was there ever a super sekrit forum on this site that posters here used to visit? Not the mod forum, I mean an invitation only type thing.

I think it does mostly just deal with overexposure. I believe it was nolanfan who asked in the first thread "If TSC started posting today would he make it to 10k posts?" I answered no then, and still believe that to be true given the climate of OOT at the time. Nowadays? Maybe he would make it to 10k, I mean, look at some of the other superposters floating around.

He's very opinionated, and I think that does rub some people the wrong way. He had some pretty awesome rap argument threads back then, and almost made some peoples heads explode when he said that Doggystyle might be the best overall rap album.

Yes, there was. I just tried to go back to it though, and the site no longer exists. Sad, really. It was a pretty awesome collection of people from both poker and OT forums, but never really caught traction. It took off for a little bit, but then everybody came back. I remember people planning an amazing fake NETeller freezing on multiple people's accounts back when the thought of that was all silly fantasy, but nothing ever became of it.

Other highlights were wacki's great scientific articles and Zeno's beautiful China pictures.

Ok, I seem to be hitting my stride with writing now, so instead of wasting it on you guys I'm going to go write some more grad school essays right now and answer any other questions late tonight or tomorrow. To keep you entertained, I will say that my first question involves me choosing to invite Chad Kroeger, Kevin Reynolds, Billy Beane and Steve Jobs to a dinner party.

This is so amazing, I feel like I got an early Christmas gift.

[NT!]

it wouldn't be anything like that, what would happen is nath would get high and play donkaments and chat on AIM while ross talked about how hot my lady friend is for an hour.
