There was a goon a while back that had found out he only had a short time to live, and wanted advice on what to do before he died.

I thought I had the thread bookmarked, but I don't. Any news on how it turned out or if he is still around ?

The guy with the squirrel avatar (YOU HAVE WON THE BATTLE BUT THE WAR RAGES ON or something), who posted the thread about his bird feeder squirrel problem... did he ever post a thread with pictures from his back yard? It looks like the shire with wild animals strolling around and is huge, many people wished in the thread that he would do so.

There were a couple threads over the last few years where the idea was "write horrible lyrics to a song and I will sing them." The OP was actually a very talented musician and made some hilariously good/bad renditions of songs that goons would write. My favorite one, and the one I'm looking for, had the lyrics "bewitched like changing Darrens/I shoot endangered herons from the sky/a boulder running errands/comes rolling by and crushes you and I" I just remember cracking up at how horrendous those lyrics were but I can no longer find the MP3. Anyone have it?

A couple of years ago a goon posted some really nice pencil sketches of nightmare creatures which were invading his beach house at night. They were like foot long black chitinous centipedes, but with more legs coming out of their face.

I can report that they live on tropical reefs and eat algae, not people.

Requesting a link to the thread by a goon who got a letter from his college dorm roommate-to-be that made the kid sound like a 14 year old girl. Favorite movies and TV shows and music were ENTIRELY like disney pop garbage. The guy was allegedly 18 and going off to college but his letter was all about how much he loved Hannah Montana and the Suite Life of Zack and Cody and Lizzie Maguire and poo poo.

I forgot about the thread and never got to see if the kid actually showed up at school or not and if he was actually as hilariously silly/retarded as the letter made him seem. I sort of suspected it was a joke and would love to find out.

I have a vague memory of a hilarious thread from around 3-4 years ago. It started with the OP having a bunch of coupons, or chump change, or something along those lines, and they were asking for suggestions on what to do with it. Someone replied with, "You know what's really fun? You can ... all at once" (or something resembling that); and this reply was a double-post. The thread quickly turned into people asking, "does anyone know what's really fun?" in many different ways.

I've probably butchered the OP and double-post quote, but I remember the quick turn from answering the OP to mocking the double-post was pure gold.

This is going years back, but there was a photoshop thread where you had to photoshop this fat guy who was diving into a pool into other photo's. It became hilarious very quickly, with fat men being dropped from bombers, and even one using a photo of the vietnam war memorial which nearly killed me with laughter.

It was brilliant and I would very much like to read through it again. It would be many years old, though, and I have archives available, I just don't know what to search for :(
That was from before I joined, which would put it around summer of 2001. It looks like the archives only go back to 2002, so I think you're out of luck. I could make a zip out of the Flying Fat Guy pictures I have if you're interested.
