You Know You've Spent Too Much Time On the Escapist When...

[soren7550]

Spoiler: When you go and meet fellow Escapists.

From left to right: [user]soren7550[/user] and [user]miracleofsound[/user]

Not pictured: Mr. Boyfriend, aka [user]Souplex[/user] who won't let me post a picture of me with him, nor take a picture with him. Jerkface.

Did he sing to you?

Which one? Mr. Dunne or Mr. Boyfriend?
(kidding, kidding)

Mr. Dunne didn't (we talked about nerdy crap and the city), but Mr. Boyfriend has (he just tried to serenade me with 'Shooter Guy'. Didn't work since he can't sing. XP).

My girlfriend is under the impression that, because I was in chorus in high school, I can sing. This is not the case and I have been too much of a pussy to serenade her yet, lol.

Lol. If what I can remember of school choruses is true here, you may be better off keeping your mouth shut.

I forgot, Mr. Dunne did give me a CD. So does that count?

Yeah, I'd say that counts

Uh-oh. His girlfriend may get mad then. And she got me a drink. I've betrayed her trust! DX

Wait, she was there when he gave it to me, and she didn't seem to mind.

Then again, them Irish are a crafty devious lot...

When you're with your friends and you can't stop telling people how hilarious this guy called Daystar Clarion is.

Spoiler: Oh really?

I am quite hilarious aren't I?

And modest.

Modest too.

I know I've been on too long when I look at you and think of the warriors of the sun.

[putowtin]

when instead of getting ready to go out for my mates birthday (that I'm already running late for) I'm reading a thread about spending too much time on the escapist!

 

[MysticToast]

... I start to recognize most of the posters in this thread.

Lol, yeah that's a clear give away right there. Know how you feel man.

I remember the day I found out Vault101 was a chick >.>

Weirdly enough so do I. it was an actual moment for me going 'huh, that guy with the Fallout and thing I don't recognise avatar is actually female.'

And since then the urge to post inappropriately grows stronger...

but god....your right...yours is huge all of a sudden

Oh hai Vault 101!

.

Casual Shinji... well I remember what his avatar looks like actually and remember seeing him around... XD

But hear yourself responding as both Jack and Calumon? Well I know who they are... XD

As for Vault101, if I see someone around even a bit I tend to check their profiles so that one happened rather quickly. More dependent on how quick you are to check profiles.

But you know... while I haven't seen Furburt, Demented Teddy, or MaxtheReaper, I have heard them mentioned at least... Which I think is a bit of an indicator for how much I'm around -__-

Oh man. Furburt was the Daystar of his day (mostly 2009/early 2010) People worshiped him pretty much, and once he entered a thread you just knew that everyone was going to start cowtowing to him. Demented Teddy was an admitted Fascist and, if memory serves, admitted paedophile who often made threads about how both were misunderstood (and people think the forums are bad now...)

Max was...

A vile asshole frankly. The other two I liked, was friends with, and kind of ignored Teddy's more extreme views, but Max the Reaper was just an unrepentant dickhead. I was genuinely glad the day I saw him get banned.

 

[Imthatguy]

When I see anything pointless and stupid I think 'Damn you Daystar'.

 

[Zombie_Fish]

I'm beginning to see why you retired.

Yeah, I was going to be starting University in a few months and I wanted to spend less time on the site during my studies. That and they were appointing new mods anyway so I figured it was best to do it then.

Long story short, being a mod is a lot of work.

uhhh...hai!

I don't know who Casual Shinji is ...ah well other than being a person who posts in forums

I can recognize most posters almost anywhere. I'm not sure whether that's good or bad, though.

 

[BehattedWanderer]

Seeing British food and awaiting a wonderfully informative thesis on it written by Daystar, followed immediately thereafter by everyone crowding into the thread so fast that it derails in seven different directions. That, or using the BB code where it can't be used, and attempting to blame Kross. "What do you mean typing i and /i in brackets doesn't write it in italics! That's how this works! Is Kross trolling us again?!"

 

[Waaghpowa]

Don't enlarge his ego! THIS THREAD CAN'T HANDLE IT!

I must escape!

When Jack starts commenting on your threads.

 

[gideonkain]

When your... browsing The Escapist and you absent mindedly click a bookmark and it's the Escapist.

Happens to me all the time ^^

 

[Scarim Coral]

....your last dream was just you posting a comment in the forum.

No really that was my dream last night!!! I was posting my comment about Moviebob watching this asain film I've watched but it was called "Spirit" instead of the original title "Shoalin" (2011).

 

[Chromatic Aberration]

When you read a thread and think "Ahh well we had that discussion already" only realize that this was, in fact, two years ago. Also knowing pretty much every famous and infamous poster ever around going from Valksy, Demented Teddy, over Jack & Calumon down to the likes of spaceman12 and xpowderx....

Ahhh sweet nostalgia...
