What kind of fucknugget goes about impersonating quonsar?
posted by Kwantsar at 8:00 AM on July 17, 2005

And paying $5 to do so.

Two words: LAME.

Too much fucking intrigue and personality conflict lately. Let's get back to yelling at eachother about politics and music. I don't come here for a soap opera.

Truly, the mind reels.

Before anyone else jumps on the happy sock bandwagon, I'd like to propose an alternative.

This sock is obviously going to be history as soon as mathowie notices this thread. That's a waste of five bucks. For anyone else considering the same, I'd like to suggest that you just send me five dollars. I will place that five dollars in the "get Al wrecked" fund and when I can buy an adequate amount of dope and liquor I will send all contributors a picture of my naked self in a pool of vomit.

This photo, while not the greatest of keepsakes, will still provide you with more value than creating soon-to-be-deleted MeFi accounts to make some obscure and strange point.

How did you find this quonsar? Did he have the balls to email you or are you just everywhere?

quonsar posted "thank you."

It's not every day peacay you see a post linking to its own thread. On the other hand, it's not every day you see two quonsars.

one might note the important point blargh is making with this little demo. (number one, that is...) clever AND profound. my hat is off to blargh.

I fixed this security hole, and blocked the account at around 5am today. You can no longer register a name with entities in it.
