StrangersInTheNight posted:Huh. I had only heard about that gooncamp trip, never read the thread...I gotta say, learning it was visible because goons were peeking into the tent vent (and not just because the tent was somehow see-through) makes it a bit different. Well that explains my question, which was "how did they know it was but sex and not just regular sex?" But I guess if people were actually peeking through vent holes and sit, and not just seeing silhouettes, then that explains it! Of course, it's also possible they went around telling people it was anal...either after or during... "Yo goons, havin' some sweet-rear end rear end-sex with my girlfriend in this here tent! Come on over for a show!"

I'm understanding more of these now than I did before, but the meaning of  still eludes me. Is it basically used for when someone is being insufferably nerdy? Or am I missing the meaning entirely?

alone was the original. I don't know if there's a story behind it beyond "it's a cartoon of a sexy girl winking at you". The hair and eye color makes it look like Kim Possible. Maybe another BYOB thing? is of course Alfred E. Neuman's gap-toothed grin, and the code references his catchphrase "What, me worry?"

SUPERMAN'S GAL PAL posted:Unfortunately I lack platinum but I remember the original thread for I remember that thread... there were some pretty good ones in there, though the final (and current) version is the best. I think :scax: is my favorite old emoticon (so old it's apparently gone), mostly since I watched that thread when it happened, and it convinced me to register my original account. It was spawned from Martin Random's terrible roommate thread.

in which the OP wanted to get it down to emoticon-size, but at the time it wasn't possible. This led to several edits, including Forkbanger and Evardread out-editing one another. What I want to know is who finally got the drat thing re-sized and purchased, because it didn't show up until a few years later and I rarely see it used!

It's really really obvious who it is because the link is really descriptive; : sharpton :. I was just wondering why someone put down money for a small picture of Al Sharpton. Since I've never seen it used I guessed it was a BYOB joke or something.

Toast Museum posted:Pretty sure someone earlier said it was another BYOB vanity smilie. Yes,  is former BYOB poster Atomic Monkey. I have no idea if he still uses that username. Yes, he bought his own vanity emoticon.Generally if a smiley has an unexplained origin, it almost certainly came from BYOB. That forum was a massive moneymaker for Lowtax simply on avatar changes alone, I'm surprised it was closed. I never read the thread this was bought in, but it's David Boon, an Australian cricketer who, according to folklore, once drunk 52 cans of beer on a flight to a match and then went out and played (well). I bought  back in the day, it's "good ol'" Jim Ross, professional wrestling commentator. The "bahgawd" name references his catchphrase. I didn't make the GIF, I simply promised to buy one if someone made one since people were posting JR pictures in the wrestling threads nonstop. was actually not the GIF I intended to purchase but accidentally bought the wrong one, I meant to buy this one with the slightly different mouth:  At the time the people in the thread (correctly) predicted that it would be more commonly used outside of the wrestling subforum as a generic redneck emoticon. cmndstab has a new favorite as of 16:12 on May 25, 2012 |

That forum was a massive moneymaker for Lowtax simply on avatar changes alone, I'm surprised it was closed. BYOB kind of turned into a circlejerk of spamming and bullshit with an "in" crowd that seemed to think it owned BYOB and could decide who could and could not post there. Kind of like FYAD. It turned into a thing that was radically different than what it was supposed to be. It was supposed to be a chill place where you could hang out and post stupid poo poo and not get judged for posting stupid poo poo. So instead people started spouting hellfire at those that posted the "wrong" chill, stupid things. At least, that's what I remember of it. It was sad, in any event.
