It's not like I was a highly active member of the community, but it helped me become a much more vocal and better person; for that, thanks. It's surprising how much the anonymity of the internet can help.

And make me want to punch my former self from 10 years ago in the face.

-Gandhi Jagasia

Went to college.

Graduated college.

Couldn't find a job for a while.

Couldn't find a job in my field.

Found a new field.

Struggled for a couple years.

Found a pretty sweet gig.

Love the new job, and the new field.

Reflected back on it thinking, "I can appreciate all these things that made me who I am, those years of scraping by seem much more worth it."

Speak for yourself. I have never been anything but awesome.

Also, that last thing I said was a horrific lie.

Evercrest reunion party. Getting Snoota, Gains and the rest back onto the boards.

Snoota
Sean
Black
Vorbis
Steve
Gydyon

And probably some other people that I'm forgetting.

I still say the couple hours of fucking around in Desert Combat were some of the most fun I've had playing video games.

And I was all like 'Oh yeah?' and Karnaj was all like:
People I would like to catch up with:

Snoota
Sean
Black
Vorbis
Steve
Gydyon

And probably some other people that I'm forgetting.

I still chat with Leopold, though we're no longer going out.

Now I just want to get on IRC, make up some ridiculous drinking game and get crunk with all y'alls. Responsible adult! With a job! I promise!

I'd better get my chloroform and rag back out the cupboard.

That was a lot of fun. Cramming explosives under a Jeep and seeing how high we could blast ourselves.

Also, that was around ten years ago. God, I feel old.

What is this crap that Soldar is spewing?

There were also the hours spent bitching that engineers in RTCW were bullshit because of spawn mining and rifle grenades...

I think I almost caused Delphi to have an aneurysm.

U MAD?

Only class I was any good with. I LOVED being an engineer.

Him and Khyron used to have the biggest shitfits when someone trolled them in a game.

Random Insanity Generator spewed forth this undeniable truth:

I recall more bitching over rambo medics than anything else.

Actually, there was a lot of bitching over anything and everything really.

Gains always seemed like a alright dude, but I wouldn't want anything to do with him after the last couple of times he and Waisz decided to troll and fuck up the board.
