Title: Merry Christmas and a message to our community...
Post by: The Fake Shemp on December 25, 2007, 04:13:34 AM
This has been an interesting year for our fledgling community, marked by growth in a lot of areas - not so much in pure traffic, but a more diverse, developed user base than what we started off as.  I'm happy to see the forum kind of take an identity of its own the longer its around; I think there were trying times when we (as in the collective community) wondered if this was a failed experiment.  I think we can all pretty much agree that is no longer the case.

Some of you aren't privy to personal information of users outside of aliases and screen names, but I'm also glad to say that we've got a core group of actual good people.  I've gotten to know some folks better over the past year, and I don't just like talking to them - I actually respect their opinions.

I personally have seen some real rough patches this year and right now I'm going through one of the most trying times in my young life, but several people have really been there for me.  Several people from this very community.  And that's the kind of community we have - we can be irreverent and asinine at times, but there's also a legitimate human side that's absent from similar places.  I'm proud to say I know some of you as just not aliases, but people.

Merry Christmas to all of you and I look forward to ringing in the New Year at the 'bore.

Do you really think I care about gaf still? I don't even read it anymore.

Since then, I have registered at Something Awful, and quite frankly, between SA and EB, I have no reason to go back to gaf, especially since EB has most of my favorite Gaf posters here anyways. Why mess with the bullshit?

lol

I'm pretty selective in what threads I post in. In fact, the only thread I've been posting in regularly at gaf is my FFVII thread. If I was all into gaf, I would be posting a lot more.

You should instead favor a community where you can call a poster a cigarillo as many times as you want without getting banned, and diss any sacred cow that you want to diss.

Thanks, bud. :D

After dropping off my grandparents on the way home from the family get-together, my mom saw this insane house filled with Christmas decorations. I turned around just for her, and there was a line of cars blocking traffic trying to turn onto the street. It was the most disgusting display of excess I have ever seen. Every blade of grass was covered with some sort of huge decoration. Santas, snowmen, reindeer, random fictional characters in Santa hats... Even the whole roof of the house was covered with electric snowflakes. There were hundreds of cars and people standing around looking at it.

That electric bill must be fucking ridiculous.
