What was your first escapist post like?

[MercurySteam]

Oh boy this thread again? Oh well if you insist:

I wont lie
All my games except Fable and GTA SA are downloaded
Ya happy now?

That was before my 360 so don't bloody judge me.

It went kinda exactly like this from "Name your ship" (17th July, 2008):

The U.N.S.C. Shock n' Awe (Spacecraft Halo-style). Staffed by an all female crew between the ages of 16-32. Used to go to completely random solar systems and terraform Earth-like planets so they could be ours!!!! Oh, and fight/mate with suspiciously Human like sexy chick aliens...

 

[DuplicateValue]

Hmm, lemme check...

...

Ah, it was in a thread about "Your Favourite Transformer". I dunno why, I don't even like Transformers that much.

Definately that purple female transformer.
"Follow us to the pillar!" *BOOM*


Seriously though, that old dude they activated in the museum was awesome! ^^

Ugh, spelling mistake. Stupid past me.

I went back in time and saw me posting, THIS!

Spoiler: I was doing okay until I brought up my fashion sense.

But getting back to a point, the current curriculum (at least in America) is a focus on English and History. There is very little Math and Science required of current students. In fact I could have stopped taking Math courses my Junior year as I already had Algebra II, but I still took Pre-Calculus so I wouldn't be a poetic brick of a person. I retook IPC not because I failed it, but because I corrected the teacher most every day.

And for the final slap in the face they don't even take English or History seriously! English devolved from knowledge and communications skills to reading about struggling over adversity. They took out "The Adventures of Huckleberry Fin" which is a great novel for "Life of Pi" which is about a Hindu boy being stuck on a life raft with a sea sick Tiger for 8 weeks! That doesn't even work! It was an insipid story that supplanted a masterpiece for the sake of looking more PC. There wasn't even any critical thinking skill exercises. No poetry analysis, no grammer understanding, no detecting of undertones in stories. The biggest fuss in English was making sure you had the right colored pens. Yes in order to write a paper to their liking you had to do the rough draft, then go over it with a red pen, a green pen, a blue pen, a purple pen, a black pen, and a pencil. It was retarded and it did not benefit us in the real world in any way. I dare you to think of a writing job where that is useful!

They dumb down English, remove Science and Math, and History is how awesome America is and how we are superior.

And of course there are the inane rules about clothing and outer appearance. Some of it makes sense such as no gang affiliations on your body, but for every one of those logical rules there are three stupid rules like boys hair can't touch his back collar or go past his earlobe and no black pants. I can't make something that stupid up, there were no black pants allowed at my school. I am thankful for graduating to get away from that intelligence black hole.

Oh, and I apparently had a thing for using long/silly words. This place cured me of that.

'Twas a reply to a thread about what you'd want your new body to look like if your old one had been ruined in some accident. This was my reply:

Adamantium skeleton, claws, healing factor, cool hairstyle without any gel... Basically, Wolverine. (Which I came up with before reading the earlier post suggesting this.)

 

[teh_Canape]

mine was on a zombie thread with the twist that I was the zombie

and I posted a pic of the Zombie Helicopter from Ninja Blade (god I'm still disturbed by that game's intro, fucking mutant girl)

 

[sb666]

I can barely remember what I did yesterday, never mind posted a year ago.

 

[ShockValue]

My first post was about the awesomeness of skittles.

 

[Cazza]

An intro thread.

 

[Hookman]

I think it was something to do with horror films. I recall there was terrible grammar. I've gotten over saying 'lol' now.

 

[Harlemura]

Super Smash Bros. Brawl
Sonic & The Black Knight
Samba de Amigo
Wii Sports
Wii Play
Sam & Max
Big Brain Academy

Smash Bros. and Sonic are the only ones I really play anymore

On a thread about Wii games you own.
... What a crap first post.

Minus Samba de Amigo and Big Brain Academy, add some Trauma Centre and that's still my list.

 

[Enemy Of The State]

It was in a thread about stupid criminals, I think. Something to do with criminals being stupid.

 

[HK_01]

A comment on a UR episode. I had just understood that the stone face had sent them back in time.

 

[Z of the Na'vi]

300 had some good slo mo scenes

This was my response to a thread discussing what movie had the best slow-motion scenes. Dated way back in April of 2009.

I have no idea why I chose 300 over something clearly more deserving of the title, like The Matrix.

[sub]Oddly enough, my username wasn't even what it is now, "Z of the Na'vi." Back then, I was known as "Rocketpocket."[/sub]

 

[Lambi]

My first post was about the awesomeness of skittles.

They are indeed awesome.

OT: My first post was, not oddly enough if you know me, in a Forum Game.

Spoiler: Here it is. With my original username, too :3

1. (Finish him!)
I'm new to the whole forum-thing so please be nice
Also, I've read your Silent Hill True RPG and was scared shitless reading it, and this True RPG looks like its going to get good (not that it's bad, you know what I mean).
What I'm trying to say is keep up the good work, you are an awesome storyteller and I look forward to the rest of the story.

Mine was about how I had no idea what the search engine Bing was for, and that I had to Google it just to know what it was. This was back when Bing had annoying t.v. ads that didn't tell you anything about what it was too.

 

[TheRundownRabbit]

all I can remember is that after posting I thought "oh my god I cant believe i just said that"

 

[JourneyThroughHell]

A-ok.

It was in a thread about "the coolest videogame cutscene youve ever seen".

And it was the following.

Call Of Duty 4 Nuke and The Saints Row 2 Swordfighting Cutscene in Gat's house. Those were really jaw-dropping.

Not too shabby, but definitely nothing special.

Twas me saying that I hate Killzone 2 and using terrible grammar, even worse than now.
