A while ago someone posted this long run-on sentence about something or other (I think it was just an E/N post about stuff that had been happening in their life) and another poster commented that it sounded like a verse of "Blinded by the Light" which it absolutely did. Does anyone have that quote?

The only two things I remember is that it was Fool of Sound that posted the second bit and that it was in a previous quotes thread.

I think someone asked for it earlier in this thread too, or maybe the Quote/Coat/Goats thread. Aren't archives still down though?

edit: PopeCrunch posted the original sentence in some LP thread.

Because juice is literally magic. Apparently. I don't know, I know people who religiously juice all sorts of stuff because reasons and nutrients. A lot of it goes back to wellness centers and stuff like "this particular blend of juices will cure X ailment and rebalance Y thing." It comes down to marketing; juice companies managed to convince people that juice is magic so a lot of people have glommed onto it.

You know how there's this conspiracy theory that the United States, Saudi Arabia and Russia are all agreeing on not actually doing anything serious on Iraq and Syria because the civil wars are dragging an incredible amount of Jihadists into that area to be properly spied on via satelite and die like dogs by the thousands, meaning less Taliban in Afghanistan, less fundamentalists competing with Arabia's nutcase of a Sheikdom and less Chechens willing to blow themselves up in Moscow (preferring Allepo's Mediterranean weather)?

its really amazing how the actions of goons and mods are so freaking far beyond the pale that its actually impossible for a bystander to believe.

proposal: i am going to make an environmentally sustainable yoga retreat in hawaii

reality: a y2k survivalist paid goons a "food stipend" to help me clearcut a rainforest, dig a road by hand, torture and mutilate animals to death on camera, and bathe in/drink from an improperly filtered kiddy pool that wild hogs poo poo and pissed in

proposal: i am going to make a fun zipline for kids at camp

reality: a goon spent tens of thousands of dollars constructing a machine that kills children, entirely by accident

proposal: a fad diet thread in the exercise forum

reality: a mentally ill man resembling a melted candle, the pied piper of ham joints, told people that eating nothing but eggs and bacon and lard in paint buckets (they were literally buying and eating buckets full of lard in the name of good health) would not only make them lose weight, but was so healthy it would cure heart disease and cancer. an enormous fat powerlifter who cant run for 20 seconds probated and banned anyone who challenged this wisdom until it lead to a man barely in his 20s being prescribed statins.

proposal: a thread about animal husbandry in the pet forum

reality: a moderator unrepentantly killed animals with ac/dc hadoukens and probated people who asked questions

proposal: a forum for "responsible drug users" and "harm reduction"

reality: a man falls through the earth and into parisian catacombs. taking a torch from the wall he spies row upon row of skeletons. grasping the nearest by the shoulders, he shakes it madly, yelling "my nigga have u tried lsd"

Snoop Dog had been shooting up so much that when they recorded his new album he had to be propped up on one of those Hannibal Lecter things. When they held up the microphone to his face for him, Snoop dog instinctively started singing "smoke weed everyday" in a low monotone voice. After about 20 minutes, snoop dog nodded off into a junk induced coma. The recording studio autotuned it anyway, note for tortured note.

It was a zipline that fired children directly at giant wooden posts that he wanted to wrap in mattresses to cushion their impact.

If you search for the thread URL, you can still view Google's cached versions of old threads. It's not perfect since you can only see a few pages, but it's something.

If it's the poster I think you're talking about, she's probably an actual skeleton by now since it was pretty obvious her addiction was going to kill her and last I heard she hasn't posted in very long time.

Yes, her. A former mod told her to try LSD to get off her addiction, and that rehab was bad.

Father jailed for beating 3 kids after they wouldn't say who farted in his car

Honestly surprised the goon who convinced other goons that rubbing cum on your face acts as a pheromone to attract women isnt on there. Other goons willingly lathered their faces up with spunk and tried to chat up women. however i've never actually seen the thread this happened in does anyone have a link to it, at this point i think its probably a joke right?

Something that definitely happened was, proposal: a mod challenge to poo poo on a dreamcast

Reality: goons don't believe the op, they think he just poured beans on a dream cast so scores of goons set about showing him how its really done and begin submitting nintendos and ps2s full of poo poo to the thread, goons even begin cumming on remote controls, another begins blowing them up.
