Well, this is my first contribution: Parenthesis vs. brackets! The fight is on!

And let it be said that as long as we aren't too harsh towards each other, it's okay to poke a little fun at anyone's old posts or bad yet humorous moments. Have some good laughs, but don't be horribly mean.

EDIT: I think this is sticky worthy. If the thread doesn't turn out as we hope, we can unsticky it sometime.

aaaaaaaahh good ol' times
*sits back and re-reads

dripik · #4 08-03-2006, 12:34 PM

BatteryClock beaten everything I saw on OWF before... The thread 'My idea...' wasn't exactly popular, was it?

I guess the first few versions of "What do you look like?" should go in here. One of the most active thread-series in Off-Topic and all...

used:) · #5 08-03-2006, 12:47 PM

Hmmmm, that fast food thread Alector made was pretty good, but it got deleted in the owf hacking.

Other than that, I guess a lot of Ambi's threads and the memory thread I created were good as well.

Abeguy · #6 08-03-2006, 04:50 PM

"my anus is bleeding"

good times.

AquaticAmbi · #7 08-03-2006, 08:34 PM

So here's all the WDYLL threads. There appears to be two first ones.

I remember enjoying the masturbation thread not long back.

Ambi: Post the link you lazys!
Jacking Off. (And other sexual adventures.)

***Nate*** · #9 08-05-2006, 06:12 AM

Oh yeah, that was a great one. Shame I was out of internet-contact for most of the time that one was happening.

*fights the urge to post my two cents*

EDIT: it's wierd to read old posts of mine now, in many of these threads. It feels like they've been written by someone else. Although, after the PA thing, maybe they were.

Zerox · #10 08-05-2006, 11:34 AM

The worst...?

ELEMENTOFLOVE. End story. No threads or anything left, though, to remember him by. Not that I exactly WANT to any time soon.

Kamille · #11 08-05-2006, 02:39 PM

wow I didn't know there was a thread for jacking off rad! but I like most of the threads

Adder · #12 08-06-2006, 01:45 AM

For anyone who doesn't know where "For the love of all things holy" came from...

Don Hertzfeld - Rejected

Takes a while to load up, but it's absolutly fabulous hand-drawn animation about some guy's failed adverts.

***Nate*** · #13 08-06-2006, 04:10 AM

Yep, you beat me to posting that one.

I have been known to spontaneously start reciting the "Ma spoon is too big" scene at the dinner table. Banana included.

He was a multi made by one of Dipstikk's friends.

Statikk HDM · #15 08-07-2006, 05:02 AM

Where are all the threads of evolution, homosexuality, and abortion, you know, the hand grenade topics? Those used to be all time. And I'm happy that Jacking Off was nominated. Thank you.

Being the masochist insomniac that I am, I just spent the last 40-odd minutes peering through Necrum and browsing through WDYLL V4. Ooh, Alcar in army uniform... I am 100% sure that MojoMan220 stopped posting pictures of himself due to my creepy adoration.

Simultaneously, I reminded myself how much I miss Claire-Bear and her Spam Thread, which should perhaps be popped out as a warning every time someone suggests we should have a subforum where anything goes. Fun reading though...

Fez · #18 08-18-2006, 02:36 AM

I can't edit the top post to add those threads for some reason. 'Bit annoyin' really....

Sassenach · #19 08-18-2006, 09:36 AM

Is this not a classic?!

***Wil*** · #20 08-18-2006, 12:30 PM

Esus, that is one classic of a classic.

I thought it got more of a response than that.

Fez, to find out why you can't edit your first post anymore, visit Forum Suggestions & Help and check out the topic called Um.. Edit Button?

Yeah, then storm the government! IT'S ALL ANOTHER FORM OF CONTROL!!!

OANST · #22 08-20-2006, 12:10 PM

Yeah..... the masturbation thread. Anyone else notice that I have a tendency to get into heated arguments that end up destroying long lived threads? But that one wasn't on my head. Was it, Facsimile?

Facsimile · #23 08-21-2006, 09:25 PM

Ah, good times. I didn't realise that was in that thread.

Statikk HDM · #24 08-24-2006, 08:21 AM

I feel the need to defend myself. When it was really slow I'd jack off at work. So sue me! It was my "smoke break", okay? Don't look at me like that!
What was that thread where people would ask Jacob questions and he'd answer? Stupid Answers for Stupid Questions? I bitched about it, but secretly I liked it.

Hobo · #25 08-24-2006, 09:26 AM

That is one highly intelligent member who created that thread. Where'd he go?

This is the most stupidest topic I have ever read!

Woah!

I was the one who couldn't stop creating stupid answers for stupid questions threads. It wasn't until I had about three shut down that I finally gave up on it. Discredit where discredit is due.

Maybe Jacob made one too. I dunno.

DarkHoodness · #28 09-02-2006, 03:45 AM

Wow, all those things I missed when I wasn't here - Kind of makes me wish I came back sooner, or stayed here when I decided to come back in 2004. :P

Anyway, I remember the good ol' days of 2001/02, and even though I didn't really contribute much to threads back then, I did watch and read them. Most people here these days wouldn't remember these threads, but I'ma gonna submit the following ancient classics. . . *goes back in time* OMG! Nostalgia!:

1. The Bonzia Kitten Topic - Maybe a reminder of how gullable, and how different as people we were back then, but then it turned into a debate about animal creulty, and about whether humans are animals. Let the fireworks fly. :P Fun to re-read (lol, I was stupid back then - Heck, I'm still stupid now, but jeeze. . .), I'd forgotten about what went on in this topic.

2. OWF Reaction to September 11th - "OMG, this might turn into a WAR!" Hehe, if only we knew back then what we do now. . . Damned Bush.

3. When Oddworld Forums upgraded to V-Bulletin - Meh, probably not important, but it's a landmark in OWF's history. Not sure why me and many others didn't take it well though.

4. Vegatarianisim Topic - More flaming.

But overall, a good debate.

5. And lastly, perphaps one of the saddest moments in OWF history, when the forum split in 2002, and the conclusion. Sorry if I pick any 4-year old scabs open with this, shit happens after all, and no-one's upset over this anymore. :P (rofl, someone lied blatantly:"- Dark Hood posted 'ere for the last time ever ~ 8/19/02 01.22am GMT")

Next time me and Alector are together, I plan to go back through the majority of old forum topics with her - Let's see what we dig up, hmm? :P There were plenty more classics if I remember correctly, we just need to find them again. :P

There is something so so wrong about that sentance.

Probably the word enjoying.

There's something so wrong with yours. It's the word 'sentance'.

Ha! Take that!

... But yeah, upon a re-read, it wasn't the best choice of words.
