I have poked around in some other website/message boards and I have to say this one is my fave and pretty much my home now while Im at work. The level of dick heads seem to be way low and well maybe cause the dicks here are just way more mature than other dicks on other boards. This is my thank you to the shizz and all the shizzies that have made me feel welcome!

Oh yeah….. eat my ass!


Why is this your place to be??

Your Welcome.


Now get off the internet and get some work done you lazy bastards.

This board is cool because it's a lot of people I know IRL.

And the others are just people I want to meet IRL.

And don't listen to that admin guy, Mikey. He's a cock.

for me the message board came second. I already knew most of the "original shizz" people in person, before the message board was created, and the message board was just a convenient place to go to see what was up with them, stuff going on, etc. there are now people I knew on the board first and then met in person, but the main reason i joined this board was to keep in touch with people I already knew. i think one of the reason there is a low dickery level here is because many of the people are friends/acquaintances/frenemies/whatever in real life. when you have to see and interact with someone in person you are less likely to treat them like dogcrap on the web. if this was a "web only" relationship for most people, i bet you would see more jackassery.

we've had some 1st rate jackasses on the board at various times over the last several years... things are a little smaller and more personal these days, which doesn't leave much room for poor behavior.

Hmm well basically I was at the Brickhouse & Donald introduces me to Aaron and says "we're working on this website for local music" or something. I looked it up & started posting ~~ fun to commiserate with locals who share similar attitudes. Plus I live for Jhealy's and Degreas posts.

New word of the day: Jackassery.

I was hanging with Degrae IRL the other night and he called me an idiot savant. And meant it. I didn't really care for that so he kept trying to justify it and ultimately took the idiot part back. True story. We also played that bloodhound gang mammal song about 50 times. I like cheese.

It is difficult for me to believe, but I've been visiting this message board daily for more than 5 years now. I actually found out about it because a guy I hung out with in high school who didn't drive kept trying to convince me to take him to see these bands "The Minibosses" and "I Hate You When You're Pregnant." After humoring him and discovering how awesome it was, I started posting on the board.

Then I started going to more Shizz events, met a bunch of Shizzies in real life, started letting out-of-state bossies stay at my house, etc. And the rest is history.

I think a read about this site in the New times years ago, but have been an infrequent guest for most of the time. This site seems more orginized and motivated compared to other like avenues.

I like the shizz because it's all computerized.

For whatever reason, I've never really bothered with message boards/forums before. What keeps me coming back here is the undeniable chemistry (just try and deny it - you can't!).

I can count the number of people I've met in real life from here on one hand, but they're batting 1.000 (or however "a thousand" should look - fuck baseball) as far as being cool as all get out, interesting, fun and awesome people. I'll take those numbers all day.

Plus it's a good resource to learn about cool shit going down (bands, movies, activities, etc.).

Plus it kills time at work when it's slow.


So yeah, congrats to you all for being awesome!

also who else is cool enough to have a NINJA Emoticon?!?!?!?
