Anyway if you look at all the other houses in that neighborhood, it's *definitely* something special alright.

Nuns with Guns posted:The flight sim thing was from someone who lives near Grover and knew about it for years, and like if I knew I lived near The Meme House I'd probably remember the general direction or road it's on or some landmark nearby that'd make it easy to locate in a flight sim that grabs location data from IRL satellite pictures. I don't know if the guy had the street address memorized or something, and if people are driving by it and snapping photos regularly to give updates on whether or not it's collapsed or broader information on Grover's family then that's way too far, but it's funny the house is immortalized in a video game. he didnt build the house on the swamp he built a giant extension to a preexisting tiny rear end house on a swamp

So what counts as hell dumping vs a saga? There's the cooking adventures of one goon that I sometimes remember and laugh about and goddamnit I want to show it to people, but they otherwise seem like a nice enough person who doesn't deserve to get mocked relentlessly.

It may have been from the goon facebook thing.

It may have been from the goon facebook thing. fishmech had hosted it for a minute a long time ago because they are a compulsive data archivist but when the screenshot surfaced it was one of those situations like "is anyone going to go to bat for this person? no?" and then the perma falls iirc fishmech was not hosting it at that time, but had instead hosted it in the past when there was such a thing as collections of goon homegroan going around. fishmech had worked though to earn a spectacular negative reputation. i don't remember if it was the ancient goon final fantasy 6 translation or what but there was some JRPG parody where the final boss was "Technically Correct Fishmech" pentyne posted:zeitgeist was finally perma'd not for anything specific but also something similar, he ran a FTP server or something and a lot of people claimed to have recognized a file name as some notorious CP. He had a real lovely reputation similar situation, some creepy doxxer from SASS claimed that a file which zeitgeist very likely downloaded from a long dead DPPH offshoot contained some pics of nude kids. part of some 'naturism' thing of nudists pics being a stealthy way of distributing CP. nobody was going to download a possible source of CP from some dead tracker to double check, and zeitgeist had a poo poo reputation anyway, so zeitgeist accepted the perma on the grounds that if you've pissed off enough weird stalkers for someone to PM your porn viewing history to the mods then it was time to go. this was when the offsite stalkers were still high on collecting aatrek's scalp and tbh nobody really liked zeitgeist regardless

Fishmech should have been banned for being fishmech long before whatever happened happened, but 'indescribably tedious poster' ain't exactly a saga. Or, at least, not one worth reading.

I never found her too bad,to be honest. I wouldn't want to sit next to her on a long bus ride, but there were (and still are) a lot more bad posters who were as tedious and with the bonus of also having terrible opinions. But i don't feel bad about her perma because she's almost certainly using an alt and still posting. After all, remember the time her account was restricted to posting in the gas chamber? That didn't stop her from posting.

I'm pretty sure people posted goonporn.rar (yes it was called that) freely in the mid-2000s but yeah maybe weird to keep it forever. And I think people kept posting pics of DocEvils wife from it. I'm glad the forum is kind of better now. Or maybe that's not what they were hosting. I don't know and don't wanna know.

I still wish I could get his justification for why he needs three flashlights, or a gun, or a tiny hidden knife while janitoring. Was the camera meant to be like a spec ops thing too, stealthily documenting shady poo poo going on at wherever he worked? Because I really doubt his job description involved photographing damage to the property over just reporting it.

Ugh from a  standpoint that little punch knife is by far the worst. Like yeah fine it's the US people carry guns, but the conceled knife has no purpose except to cause completely horrific injuries to someone who didn't even know you were armed.

What gets me about the "hideaway knife" is that custodial work is one of the occupations where it's most reasonable just to be carrying a utility knife or boxcutter around. You need to scrape poo poo up and break down boxes! But no, can't carry a knife that might be of some actual use for a practical task, it has to be the jank-rear end tiny "self-defense" thing.

To me the kicker will always be the spare magazine. He's already got a loaded gun, and wants to fill some empty belt space with more crap he might need someday, but instead of a zippo or grease pencil or zip ties he decides to prepare for nasa janitorial duties where he'll shoot at someone a dozen times then think "poo poo those 12 bullets weren't enough, good thing I brought more"
