Remember when.....
posted Friday, June 08, 2007 - 09:51 AM (#38164)

For completely selfish reasons, here's my attempt at reviving this forum. I've been forced to actually work since there has been little activity around here.

Tell your favorite Goats related "remember when" story.

Remember when all that time-travel was making everything wonky? That time Jon travelled into the future to post a News Forum message on June 11th 2007 was just so wacky, and then when he went back into the past to kill his own grandfather and prevent the appearance of the message... well, that was just insane! Somebody might try to steal another Rory Award!

Also, when Jon and Phillip made a bunch of old Premium News posts from two years ago re-materialize on the front page of Goats.com i thought it was extremely mirthful. But then, of course, i'm easily amused any time Eddie's in the SpaceTime Continuum.

I wonder how Overcompensating.com managed to get sucked up into these whooshing whorls.

New FORUM GAME!

"I remember this one time at band camp..."

I'll start.

I remember this one time at band camp, when we all put on red vinyl jumpsuits and yellow swimcaps. We danced around and sang a song about Augustus Gloop, and did a wonderful dance number with some synchronized swimming in it, too!

Oh, and Snow Crash should be a movie, there are very mature 14yr olds out there, and be nice to the face of poop because they're people too.

I remember Sam, he was the village idiot
And though it seemed a pity, it was so
He used to burn down houses just to watch them glow
And nothing could be done because he was the mayor's son

I remember when Zamphir and Deerboy would get into these hilariously girly slap-fights in the forums, and Tel* would post 1000-word essays on life, the universe, and proper sex toy maintenance.

Remember when we used to be able to meta-moderate daily? Yesterday and today (June 14th and 15th) i have not been able to do so correctly. I selected the fair/unfair buttons, then clicked on the "moderate" button, but i was told Dumbrella Hosting has encountered an unexpected error [goats.com].

I don't think this is terribly serious. But if it were too persist for many days or weeks, i imagine it might begin to affect the karma system noticeably. Until then, i'm not worried at all because "We've been notified and will look into it."

Honestly, i'm rather surprised at how few errors i've encountered on this website over the years, given its level of complexity. I'm sure that i've visited sites which were waaayyy more buggy despite their considerably lower level of content, compared to the awesomeness which is Goats, its archives, its forums, its store, and other features. In an alternate dimension where i'd find myself in some kind of internet business, i'd definitely want to work with Dumbrella because they seem tremendously reliable compared to most of the dreck out there.

Actually, while the rates appear to be entirely reasonable, the customer response time leaves a lot to be desired.

a paragraph devoted to dildos
There was no evidence that such discourse had any value here. Wouldn't i be wasting people's time?
As i sat at the table quietly and heard their various trivial conversations, i wondered what they would think if they knew how i'd spent my morning. I wondered who among them would be repulsed, who would be indifferent, and who would be titillated? Any of these guys? It's not like i had any way to work my adventures into the idle chatter, so i didn't speak much. I enjoyed some casual discussions about nothing too important with Robert, Ken, and other gentlemen present, but didn't elaborate about anything very personal. I supposed it might be considered tactless to mention deeply sexual activities in public at a restaurant; but if any men were to express a personal interest in me elsewhere, i wouldn't mind opening up about the things i love. I've met a number of men during my lifetime who were fond of similar sexual pleasures, but this particular dinner table didn't seem quite like the sort of situation where any of that [mac.com] would be appropriate.

Just because I don't want to hear stories of my friends' (nocturnal) dreams doesn't mean I don't understand the value of those dreams to them.

Plus, if they amuse me and bother others . . .

I remember when Zamphir was some kind of weird frikken loop of color or something.

Oh, and remember all those times I sent a message as Lonely Goatherd because I was way to lazy to log in?

Well, guess what.

I remember when I used to post here on a regular basis. Asphaltbuffet would always claim that my posts were long and rambling. Some bullshit about my writing style being adlepated and incoherent.

Damn you Asphaltbuffet.

I also remember this one time when I accidentally (on purpose) drank too much goldschlager and discovered that when you puked it made everything pink. Hooray for vomiting!

You know I still love you Asphaltbuffet. But in a purely platonic and nonsexual way.

 BTW, you better send me a wicked present or at least a pretty card since you're not going to be at my wedding.
