The Watercooler : Founding Members Check In Here…

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…

Tell him I said hi! And he could at least make a halfhearted effort at a new, similar name. Like, Recycled Blart.

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…

Recycled Blart is a fantastic username and you should now make that your Twitter handle, new Twitter buddy.



You are all part of a predictive simulation.

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…

I am so bad at Twitter. But OK, I agree, it is a good one and I am going for it.

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…

I remember this place even if it doesn't remember me. This is like my 3rd or 4th name here. I'll miss the boards when they go. These are strange days.

It wasn't that I didn't like the rain... I just never saw the rainbows.

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…

I think a lot of people had to make new names to say goodbye.

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…

Hey, girl. It's kind of nice seeing all these old names again. How are things?

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…

Great. Really different. What about you?

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…

I don't want to get too sentimental over a message board, and I haven't even used these in years, but the news struck me hard and I'll miss the memories I had.

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…

I am going to PM you. Don't disappear!

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…

OK

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…

No.

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…

Someone should just make a Facebook group or something.

Then I can show you all how my meme game is strong.

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…

I'm here!

Sayonara. Not to be confused with cyanide, which is, of course, goodbye in any language.

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…

Hey! You might not remember me but I never thought I'd talk to you again, so I must say hello.

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…

Sure I remember you! In fact, when I saw your username, I was going to say Hi, but then I thought you might not remember me...

So Hi!

How have you been?

Sayonara. Not to be confused with cyanide, which is, of course, goodbye in any language.

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…

Well that would've made my day! Gosh, of course I remember you.

I've been good. Life consists of work and TV. How about you?

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…

I've been pretty good, too. I'm working as a freelance writer, which is not nearly as cool or glamorous as it sounds, and doing a lot of theater. And watching more TV than I probably have time for.

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…

Glad you came back for the finale.

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…

Yay! A Watercooler reunion would not be complete without MMB.

Your port in my heavy storms harbors the blackest thoughts...

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…

Frankly, I'm surprised anybody even remembers me...

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…

You're kidding, right? That signature was Internet-famous for a while. I remember when you lost your spaces.

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…

He's so humble.

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…

Haha! Wow, I remember that too. I temporarily changed my username to White_Bearded_Gnu, and couldn't get my spaces back once it was done. Eventually, I grew to like my dashes, though...

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…

Some of us managed to keep our spaces... just sayin'.


People say that life is the thing; but I prefer reading.

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…

I'm extremely jealous of older users' spaces. FÅ«ck dashes and hyphens

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…



I was worried you wouldn't show up! we had so many good times here chatting.

I had forgotten your tagline, made me LOL you should get it on a t-shirt.

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…

It's the end of the world. I wouldn't miss that for anything.

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…

I totally forgot I'd given you that! Nice! And now I want to make some myself...

7? Wow...

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…

Ever since they realised that you were GI...'Geographically Impossible'...they decided they may as well reproduce and each of three daughters has two kids and the 7this a step-grandaughter form the Polish side.

You're here…

I'm sorry I haven't been here to give you a proper welcome.

How are you? It's so good to see you.

A number of times I tried to change it, and nobody would let me...

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…

Hey! I guess I don't really count as a "founding" member of the Sandbox but I did start posting full time in 2005 as Shadowcraft(I don't remember where I got that from but I'm still embarrassed about it and a lot of other things as well) and soon afterwards as "ElviraMadigan" after KillBill and SearchandDestroy both started ganging up on me in one thread. I know I became friends with Se7enMonkeys and Sabu and a whole bunch of other people soon afterwards and got into trouble far too often. Seeing all these names brings back so many memories.

Deolicious had a forum at one point that Sandbox regulars would sometimes go to, right? Is it still around? That would've been the ideal place to go if people here still wanted to post and stay in touch.

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…


and soon afterwards as "ElviraMadigan" after KillBill and SearchandDestroy both started ganging up on me in one thread.

That's so funny, I now remember this.

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…

And not long after that Chromium_5 made a thread about how annoying it was when people said "literally" all the time when they didn't mean it literally? I added something about people saying "I could care less" when it didn't make sense and then you started responding to my posts with "I literally could care less."

So rude.

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…

I literally could care less about that story.

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…

Is there a fight happening? Make it something to remember. I'll just be over here.

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…

I've pulled up my lawn chair put my feet up and
am ready to watch an old fashioned donnybrook.

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…

Well at least I don't read Dan Brown novels.

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…

Not fair, I was like 16 years old at the time.

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…

That was one of my most successful threads. I'm literally floored you remember it.

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…

I'm glad you got off the ground okay. I literally died laughing remembering that thread but luckily someone nearby could resuscitate me. Although my favorite was your "Shadowcraft's post history looks like a crazy person" back when I changed the subject title in every post I made so the post history in my profile looked like a bizarre string of disconnected statements and exclamations. Not your most popular thread, but as it was my first call-out as a Sandboxer, I'm obligated to remember it.

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…

Still playing the piano?

Re: Founding Members Check In Here…

HEY!!!

No, well, not as much these days. I had to stop for a few years after I went away to school. I've still been listening to music like crazy though and managed to branch out to other composers I couldn't have imagined myself listening to 10 years ago.

What have you been up to? You guys need to find a new place for us to hang out. I missed you guys! People are all advertising their own new replacement forums but I'd only sign up for one if I knew you guys were going to be there.
