Woo! Drama!

In case you're unfamiliar with SomethingAwful, they take a selection of terrible forums every week, pick out posts and make an article around it, usually resulting in a forum invasion by the SomethingAwful patrons.

Oh Run.

I don't think it's been posted before, but the post in the SA forum is from 2005.

No, just that as mentioned earlier, the Something Awful post is rather out of date.

Mind you, things haven't really changed...

Invading the fanart forum would've been a bit weird, seeing as most of the really "bad" artists here are children. Hell, even Run mentioned it. Then again, they did feature a few forums really aimed at children before. You know, when they weren't featuring another horrible anime forum, completely ignoring the fact that SA itself is filled with J-List ads which are just as bad, and that Shmorky's a 'former' furry. But I'd rather not go into that.

SA's articles can range from completely pointless to really well-written and amusing. Lately I've been enjoying the forum-created content a lot more than the official rants, though.

I haven't bothered with the front page in years. If I go to SA, it's straight to the forums.

A lot of the front-page stuff is forum-created anyway, and stuff like Photoshop Friday is just the best photoshops from one particular thread. Even Weekend Web is done by the BYOB crowd, with the new guy just choosing what forums to focus on. But yeah, trawling Comedy Goldmine beats the frontpage articles any day.

Cell was a stupid gangsta moron who, amongst other things

1) Was a moron
2) Managed to get into M3ntal's AIM account (And messaged me, and it was stored in my chatlog and appeared when I later talked to M3ntal, so I knew it wasn't just a case of replacing an L with an i)
3) Was a moron
4) Threw an emo fit when he got banned from CL2K for the aforementioned account hijack
5) Was a moron
6) Had already been banned once
7) Was a moron

I get the vague feeling he was a moron.

No idea where I got that idea from. :p

Ah, sorry about that. Mr.McCluck seems to have beaten me though.
I'm pretty sure he was involved in DoSing a worms fan site a while ago as well, just thought seeing him was a nifty co-inkidink.
