Lurkers
Or more specifically, me.
I have been a member for 2 years, 7 months and 3 days, yet until yesterday have posted precisely fuck all. I had already been lurking for several years before I boldly decided to sign up and join these people whose exploits I had been reading about. I even had a story to post in whatever that week's topic was, but decided on rereading that it was surely destined for the fail archive (coward? or should more people look over their shoulder like this?)

I have watched the rise and fall of several qotw heroes and villains over the years: Legless going from popular funny poster to most unpopular with the haters; Pooflake's brief domination of the best of page with his clearly made up, but occasionally amusing euphemism-filled posts and then his disappearance; CHCB's hatred of boring parents then subsequent motherhood; Spanky's adolescent wank fantasies eventually getting him chased away; Bert shifting from being one of the gang to unpopular, incestuous weirdo; all those others who posted stories for a while then left "because it's not as good as it used to be".

I've laughed with you, laughed at you. I've viewed some of your profiles. I've followed you on off-topic, been amused and entertained by various conversations and arguments. I've even nearly joined you a couple of times...

Don't you think this all sounds a bit creepy?
The longer it goes on, the stranger it seems to join in.
Is there a section in the archive for creepy stalkers? Save a place for me.

I have been lurking since I was 14. I am now 20. I know what you mean.

Me too
I've been signed up on here for just over three years now, but I rarely summon up the courage to say anything. It seems hard to break such a lengthy silence. Meep.

Alright RaymondluxuryBongogriddlepanyacht
Try not to go mental yet again this time, it's the internet and harmless fun.

It was creepy
until you posted this. Now you're just a bit nerdy. Not unusual around here.

You would say that
because you've just jumped in at the deep end

Was it Spanky's wank fantasies?
Or was it his unbearable similies that were painful like a drunken harriden accidentally biting the end off your penis that was as erect as big ben on viagra with her teeth as yellow as a chinaman with jaundice dressed as a daffodil eating a bannana?

'Brief Domination'?...'Clearly made up'?...'Occasionally amusing'?...

I'll have you know I have NEVER been amusing.


but thank you for remembering me :)
