I'm assuming it's just a pie made with squash filling. Kinda making me queasy just thinking about it.

(He gets excited over squash pie, for god's sake!) Then I remember that he spent like a year living in what I assume is one of the poorest areas of Nicaragua as a missionary when he was barely legal, and I'm like, "Okay, somehow, someway, he's probably one of the least boring people I've come into contact with." Not entirely sure how that works.

I only pretend to be boring so that the normals don't catch on to me. :)

Thanks for the kind words, Batty! Being called "the least uninteresting person you've ever met" is pretty much the best compliment I could receive!

EDIT: The pie was BUTTERNUT SQUASH and it was ****ing delicious and don't you forget it.

I'd have stabbed myself in the scrotum with a fork just so that I was forced to go the hospital rather than consume such a vile concoction.

When the vegetables rise up to conquer the land the mammals took from them, your disrespect will not be forgotten.

People rave about pumpkin pie, but it isn't the taste of the pumpkin, cause it's like virtually tasteless it's the spices.http://emoticoner.com/files/emoticon...ng1-smiley.gif

Meh, they don't look so tough to me! I reckon we could take them...

Also, Blarro, you are one of the coolest people on Earth for doing what you did. It's good to have you back here, you were missed, though I'm sure the kids miss you more over there. Bring back any good coffee? ;)

Man, I remember your little cute bunny-type avatar, the first time I met you. Whatever happened to that?

Wow TH, thanks! I'm sure the kids miss me, and I miss them, but I'm working full time as a teacher's assistant now with preschoolers so that dulls the pain a bit. :)

As for coffee, no I didn't. But I did drink it while I was there!

And that avatar... not sure what ever happened to it. Maybe I should bring it back? Hmm.

mordwyr: Love that he's sort off gone out of the "last album you downloaded" thread and joined the conversation in other threads. Seems like a nice dude.

YorkeDaddy 11-25-2014 07:53 AM

For every thoroughly insufferable member here there's a genuinely nice, funny person to find. I don't really interact with individuals much anymore, I just kind of float around half-lurking nowadays, but I've noticed several relatively new members that are really cool and interesting, so keep doing what you guys are doing. It's balancing out all the utterly unpleasant people.

A prime example being mordwyr. Really cool guy

Pet_Sounds 11-25-2014 03:40 PM

In honour of my 800th post, I'm going to do a massive spill.

RoxyRollah and Briks were the first people to accept me as part of the crowd back in February/March, and they're two big reasons why I returned. Both are great people who I'd be happy to meet in real life.

I always enjoy discussing and debating music with Frownland. He makes me reexamine my perception of music. Plus, I know that he's not going to throw a hissy fit, and he concedes a point when it's made.

Ki and ladyislingering: both awesome, laid back folks with great senses of humour. They're usually online in the evenings at the same time as me, and I love going back and forth with either of them in the Lounge or the Shoutbox. If I plugged with LiL, I'm sure I'd like every song she played.

Psy-Fi, DriveYourCarDownToTheSea, and Lisnaholic have all helped me greatly in my exploration of folk and psych. If I see one of them is the last poster in a thread, it always gets a click.

I get the impression that behind the diabetic toes and dick jokes, The Batlord is actually a damned good guy with quite a bit of depth. Dude knows his stuff.

DwnWthVwls and WhateverDude are two cool fellows who I always enjoy talking to in The Lounge, especially now that WD has cut down on his drinking. Not sure what they're into musically, but I'm confident that will come.

Words do not exist to describe Neapolitan. The guy is amazing. Hilarious, friendly, stays out of forum politics, and has bitchin' taste to boot.

Mondo Bungle has given me a ton of great psych recommendations, and plugging with him is always a unique experience.

misspoptart, Blarobbarg, Ninetales, Justthefacts, Wpnfire, and bob. are great people who I'm excited to interact with more in the future.

On the rare occasion that my paths cross with Mojo and wolverinewolfweiselpigeon, I'm always struck by their eloquence and down-to-earthness.

I've always looked up to James, since he joined the forum as a teenager. I enjoy everything he posts, and I've noticed similarities in our writing style. Very cool guy.

Trollheart has been a huge help to me since I signed up. I read all his journals. His over-the-top dad humour is self-mockingly hilarious. Awesome guy and the heart of MB.

My most embarrassing moment on MB came when I thought Engine was a train nerd and messaged him a technical question. I still blush when I think about it. Thankfully, he's cool enough to forget about it.

Chula Vista, grindy, JustinJJustin, and Machine are more recent additions to the community who have gained my respect.

I often wonder if Josef K is really fourteen.

My tastes don't overlap much with Carpe Mortem, but I think she's a great gal. Wish she posted more.

There was a time after the Grammar Nazi incident when mutual dislike existed between TheBig3 and myself. I have no idea what he thinks of me now, but I'm of the opinion that he's got great taste, and I enjoy his humour and rants.

Goofle is a wealth of music knowledge. I could ask him for a recommendation, and he could name ten bands that fit the bill. Respect.

I honestly have no idea what music Vanilla likes, but she's a great mod and very likable. More respect.

Janszoon is just an awesome guy who I know I can go to if I have a question or concern. Like Goofle, he's got incredibly diverse taste. One of Music Banter's writers as well.

At first, I disliked Urban Hat€Monger ?. I labelled him as condescending and overly critical. Now I've come to realize that he's a great mod and actually a pretty cool guy.

I can honestly say that I don't dislike anybody currently. The last 800 posts have been fun.

RoxyRollah 11-25-2014 03:43 PM

thank you sweetie!

Thanks, Pet_Sounds! You're a pretty cool dude, and a great addition to the community. I've really enjoyed interacting with you since I've been back!

ladyislingering 11-25-2014 05:36 PM

Aww, PS.

I'll dip into plug tonight sometime. :)

DwnWthVwls 11-25-2014 05:46 PM

4 of us in here now.. Get in here lady!

ladyislingering 11-25-2014 05:51 PM

I'm passing time on public transit. On my way home. :)

I would think public transit would be like a mini hell for you.

It's pretty awful. I miss driving. Crappy car isn't worth fixing.

Music and deliberate avoidance of conversation usually helps.

Zhanteimi 11-25-2014 06:04 PM

Driving is a rage trigger for me, so I'm much happier riding my bike to work every day, at my own pace, not getting stuck in traffic.

And LiL, I'd plug, but it's too late here right now -- I'm three hours ahead of you.

bummer, dude. I'm on my way in just now.

James 11-25-2014 07:10 PM

Thanks for the kind words Pet Sounds! I see a lot of myself in you, and that's one of the reasons I'm always enjoying your posts and rooting for you! This site can be tough for a bright eyes young idealist, I know it was for me at times, but it really is great as an intensive course in finding your taste.

Trollheart 11-25-2014 07:13 PM

Thanks Pet_Sounds (have to be careful or that could sound gay!) :laughing: already one of my newer friends here and one of the reasons I came back to this place. Well, there were many, but I missed people and you were certainly near the top of the list.

God, that Engine line! Absolutely bloody hilarious! Just in case anyone wonders, I do NOT have an interest in bridges... :shycouch:
That's Buzz Killington, I believe.

I get so pissed off and upset when I drive but it saves me so much time.

Zhanteimi 11-25-2014 08:22 PM

I guess for me it's more about mental health, stress levels, etc than saving time. Of course, here distances are much shorter.

John Wilkes Booth 11-25-2014 08:27 PM

it's weird for me cause i don't get stressed when i'm driving at all. unless someone is being a serious dick i really don't care. even if i get stuck behind someone slow. i just zone out and listen to music and smoke or something along those lines.

but walking in stores, then i get agitated with people. cause they really waddle around like they don't know their fat ass is in the way.

Zhanteimi 11-25-2014 09:23 PM

You have fat people there??

John Wilkes Booth 11-25-2014 09:26 PM

i live in the south...

Carpe Mortem 11-25-2014 09:31 PM

I always try to keep in mind that drivers may have ****ty brakes or tiny little engines, so being slow is forgivable. Cutting me off, however.. Dick move.

Also thanks for the mention P.S., you seem like a downright likable chap. The kind of pleasant dude I feel accurate in calling 'chap'.

Same here. I'm not much of a "getting there" kind of guy. I actually like the journey when I'm driving, so a delay is kind of nice. Sitting at a light is just a short, chill moment. Sitting in gridlock is a longer chill moment.

DwnWthVwls 11-26-2014 12:42 AM

The Batlord 11-26-2014 06:09 AM

There's such a thing as too high a price. And any girl who'd actually sleep with a guy like that would probably make the skin peel off my dick.

Zhanteimi 11-26-2014 06:24 AM

Them girls got chlamydia, yo.
