what did i miss
 

?

Lotta whathaveyous.

That I'm struggling to come up with anything tells you all you need to know

so..... what do you wanna talk about?

sunshine, birds, jet airplanes, and cranky old men.

sunshine- it's been fucking hot as fuck here lately. the sunshine is beautiful after summer haze but bring on monsoon.

birds- i've always wanted a falcon

jet airplanes- not down for planes. try not to think of them. i have a flight friday morning followed by a nightmare bus trip saturday. guah.

cranky old men- there's this old dude from egypt who used to stay at my job. he's a pro golfer living here and for some reason started to be my friend and would come by to chat and drink coffee. just super weird. i dont even know about this guy. then he started asking me for weed. one night he showed up at my job at like midnight saying he missed his bus and can he hang with me until 5am. then he told me about how he wants to turn me into a pro golfer and how i need to start as his caddy and blah blah.

he doesn't sound cranky to me.

i haven't been around for a while :cool:

sleeper quit netphoria

mirrar lied and the economy died

Netphoria is a corpse and we are the post-mortem shit trickling out of the slackened asshole

Monte, just a whole lot of Monte.

you missed christmas dinner and me.

lets reheat it in the microwave.

divebomb

cranky old men - i went to the dollar store after work yesterday (about 8:30pm) and some dude stops me and goes... "hey, let me ask you something... are you jewish" and i say "yeah" and he goes "really? you look jewish. i grew up in [wherever it was] and it's 99% jewish. i had a jewish girlfriend! if you dont mind me asking, how old are you"

me: "28"

him: "really?!? i'm 63!"

me: [puzzled stare]

him: "you look just like this jewish girl i dated! i love jews! it's so funny i found a jew"

me: [suppressing urge to say this community is like 25% jewish] "ok, have a good night"

him: "good luck with your job! maybe you'll be the manager some day!"

That ain't crank.

is this a religion thread yet

Nimrod is pretty liberal these days.

Where do you live?

When I fly with my friend who fears flying I whisper ominous things in his ear: "did you hear that noise?? uh oh" -- and that I see a gremlin on the wing. After a while of parodying his phobia he sort of stops fearing flying.

Do you work at a bar? My bartender friends have a million stories like that. There's always the regulars who get really attached and whose behaviour escalates in creepiness -- until they pinch someones ass and are banned from the bar for life.

Yo!

What's up??

Really? Elaborate please

Is it just that the right has radicalized so much in recent years that he seems more to the left, like some sort of weird parallax error? Sort of like how Bill O'Reilly somehow seems utterly sensible and moderate all of a sudden.

you might be surprised by my views now

How bad has it gotten?

Just in, like, number of posts per day, what percentage have things declined from a few years ago?
The board does seem like that proverbial pale shadow.

How do message boards die? What is that process?

how many regular boarders do you guys think we have these days? like 20?

he was joking about nimrod but this is how i feel about jczeroman lately

well if you're that curious you can hang around and watch it happen

haven't we all found boards that have like one topic that someone posted in two weeks ago and the rest of the posts are like completely dead for months even years

Is he a born again liberal now? Seems like he runs from one identity to another

haha

Do you guys discuss the demise of this place often?
I guess it's a bad sign when the main topic of conversation on a board is the imminent death of the board

no, but he's waaay out there
