This was not the improvement I was asking for!
Was hoping someone would jump in to fill-in-the-blank with one of the strange stories of her (not real) demise. It’s only funny to me because, for all the hoopla around the wine bottle photo, nobody who comes up with the deadly tales seems (at least that I can recall) sadistic or anything about them.

She is, by all (except the aforementioned) accounts alive and well.

Personally, I was hoping to (re)hear the one about the stalker and the scissors.

I think she stopped posting when people got creepy about her and kept posting unflattering photos of her constantly.

Didn't Colorfinger do the music for the FYADFYADLOL videos? Also, where did they go? They were made private on YouTube, and the Edgecrusher/Sugarpussy drama one was the some of the funniest poo poo to come from this site.

Semantically, "you" is both singular and plural, though syntactically it is always plural. It always takes a verb form that originally marked the word as plural.

Also, there is no plural when the context is an argument with an individual rather than a group. Somfin shouldn't put words in my mouth.
Man guys, I’m having so much fun playing Halo and I can’t wait for the new Matrix movie. I think I’m going to go to GBS and read Colorfinger’s latest thread!

I caught up with David Thorpe at a wedding a few years ago and he's still active on some social media, he's out there doing his thing so put him in the Still Very Much Alive camp since a large part of this thread seems to be about the crush of mortality

I like your dog.

Also, Colorfinger, I can remember your request streams from back in the day. I've never been a prolific poster, and completely forgot about these forums until I read a post on Ars Technica where someone's down-voted post mentioned Lowtax's demise. What a great era the early 2000's were for internet "culture" and comedy.

Agreed, the live shows were so much fun. Two great songs I remember... "Ibiza Rigby" (pretty sure I have an mp3 of one version somewhere) and a legit good cover of About Schroeder (deep cut!). Good times. Glad you're alive goon pal

e: oh and Autotuned Mr Blue Sky. I'm laughing just remembering it, this was before autotune was played out (or maybe it was played out but we didn't care)

Whoah factor mystic! Great to see you're still alive too! The craigslist uh, escort ads sung to a tune were one of my favorites, CF is just a hilarious person. We actually got to hang out irl some time after the shows, stopped by their house on a road trip and met daper too.

I'm also glad Jeffery saved the forms. I've met so many interesting goons and had lots of adventures because of that. I rarely leave my bookmarks and AI now but I'm glad I saw this thread to see who's still around.

E: oh yea sorry about bugging you all the times the request/played thing didn't work! Tbf it was a cool thing that worked great most of the time

Hey yall Im about to spend some serious free time listening to slightly under 7 gigs of colorfinger because Im actually insane. If you think of anything you might want to hear again post it and Ill see if I have it. So far theres About Schroeder, Autotuned Mr Blue Sky, and Im definitely getting the best version of 10 Foot Cock, Monkey Island, Pokemon Theme, Bento Box if its in there, Song of Meat, Its Salad (2.0), all the David Bowie and Michael Jackson covers, Hopefully deep voice Moon River there is plus any other funny or cool poo poo that makes me laugh or think colorfinger is even more rad than I already do now.

Wish me luck
