In another timeline, cobl05 always listens to artists in the right order.
 
cobl05 thinks Hey Ya was alright, but prefers In Da Club as the best rap song of 2003.

It'll be ten years next year for me.

I'm in the same boat as you. Go, us! Or something.

This coming July does mark 10 years since I joined this site, though. Which makes me feel even older, for some reason.

I can just imagine what it would be like at my high school reunion:

Random classmate: So, what have you been doing, are you married?
Me: No.
RC: Have any kids?
Me: No.
RC: Well, what did you go to school for?
Me: I haven't been to college.
RC: Oh. Well, what are you doing with your life?
Me: Living it.

I joined 5.25 years ago (wait, really?) when I was talked into it by someone who quit the site and denies ever being a U2 fan.

I always just assumed it referred to the year in which CoBL was released. :lol:

This could be true, I really can't remember. You're probably right, but hey, can't let that get in the way of the friggin' cobbler myth can we :wink:

Coming up on 8 years for me in August. Crazy shit.

That number is pretty meaningless here in B&C though. New members generally don't contribute anything over here, so it's pretty much all Interf old-timers. This is where the old and jaded come to exchange war stories about Powerjuice and PLEBA fan fic porn of yesteryear.

You're right, it doesn't seem like many new people step in here. Which is kind of a shame.

I like the idea of war stories *Has image of everyone sitting around on porches in rocking chairs saying, "Back in 2003..."*

I can't remember how exactly I stumbled across this site. I was probably just searching around online to see if there was anywhere I could talk about how great U2 is 'cause I'd been getting into them more that year. I remember really liking the band smilies for some reason.

I try not to think back too often on my teenage ramblings online *Winces*.

*Nods* Pretty much, yeah.

I don't know if I'll go to my reunion. And if I do, obviously I'd go to the reunion of the school I graduated from-I have a couple friends from there I'd love to see again, and I definitely liked that school (where I spent 10th grade to 12th grade) better (the people were less obnoxious). But I'm kinda curious to see what became of everyone at the school that I left after 9th grade here in town, too.

Course, that's presuming anyone from the latter school even shows up, we had a lot of problem kids at that one.
 
March 2005 for me, if memory serves. I got a douchebag seat for a Squirtigo show and wanted to trade it for a GA. And here I am.
 
Let's make it more interesting and talk about how we came to be random circle-jerk regulars.

I think I pushed my way in back when the unpopular threads were popular.
 
I don't remember what was going on when I started posting all the time in here. I have a bad memory for that sort of thing. it wasn't very long ago, I know that.

Do you guys know how excited I get when Outkast gets brought up here, and not by me? :lol:

outkast was brought up earlier (in real life) when i was talking to someone. they couldn't remember andre 3000's name, or the song they were thinking of (hey ya) but we got there eventually. it made me think of you. :)

as for the forums, i signed up here in june 2001. what made me really start posting here regularly was when the chat started to die. and the only reason i started going in the interference chat in the first place was the chat i'd been going to for years before had fractured (can't remember why now as this would've been in 2000) and everyone i liked came here. i don't even know if any of the people i knew then still post here.
 
I don't remember anything specific, it was just "these people are funny. I'm gonna talk to them".
 
So i was watching an interview with Allison Williams on youtube and it occurred to me how hilarious the crude, profanity filled comments on the internet are. Then it reminded me of this old news report on 'internet' and how tragically wrong this clown had it. If he only knew what would become of his precious 'internet' (at 1:43)

"This overwhelming desire of people to be rooted ..." :lmao:

You, uh, could say that.
 
The guitar in Lotus Plaza's Out of Touch is like my favourite music thing I've heard in a long time.

That's a really retarded way to express what I'm trying to say, but yeah. I dig.

Edit, you can throw the guitar in White Galactic One in there too.
 
Really looking forward to both Liars and Japandroids coming out today. Picking up The Walkmen too, since I didn't have a chance last week.
 
I need some really angry "my best friend was a real douchebag to me today" music. Any suggestions?
