I Would Just Like To Rounce…

[Future Producer of Series IX – aaaaany day now]

.. a pack of cards in a printing press with a handle, while making stupid noises with my mouth. Furthermore, I’d then like to start three separate threads on the same topic, warn about spoilers in the title, and call someone a cucking funt, or something like that.

The point I was trying to make in a roundabout way is that I’ve been going through the archives and there’s a decent number of running gags that haven’t been used in a while that we’re probably far enough away from now to be able to revisit with a more lenient view than when they were fresh and annoying, maybe even a fair degree of nostalgia. And there’s certainly some older threads that would’ve benefitted no end from the Smega-Drive had that been a thing back then.

But what does make me a bit sad is the number of dead links – pages on other sites that go nowhere, pictures hosted on other sites that have long since purged them from the databases, YouTube videos lost to history, or more likely one of YouTube’s many cullings.

… sorry, didn’t mean to kill the mood.

And now here’s some 2000s memes, because I just realised how little I actually took on board when browsing the forums on lunch breaks because I was bored.

I nominate this thread for…

Nah. Nvm.

[Flap Jack]

So many historical references to posts or users being nominated for the so-called “hall of fame status”. It’s only natural to wonder “Where is this mythical Ganymede & Titan Hall of Fame? I’ve never seen it!”.

Well I have the answer – it’s the example text in the search bar. It’s an extremely exclusive club.

I was feeling very childish that day

Fuck off is that 5 years old.

Ahahaha, oh man, I’d seen the Hall of Fame exclusively referenced by people taking the piss, so I didn’t even consider that it might be real.

The delicious irony on top that I claimed the search bar was the true Hall of Fame, when I could have discovered the truth by using that very feature.

Anyway, I’m now very much looking forward to the Hall of Fame Part 2 in 2027. If civilisation hasn’t collapsed by then.

Here, what’s going on with this one?

A stray apostrophe in Ben’s href tag. Fixed it, but it was quite pretty before.

Not a case of content drift (except for the broken image), but I do find it funny – and laudable – that of the 2 external sites linked to in comment usernames on this post, Noise To Signal is the one that’s still up.

Not sure who this “Cappsy” guy is though, as that’s clearly a different name than the author of the post. Perhaps it was Jonathan’s cousin, Marvin Capps, who was eventually blocked from using the site so that Cappsy could claim his nickname.

It really was, but you could only read a fraction of the first post and none of the others lol

He’s no Maurice “Cappsy” Capps.

[Jonathan Capps]

Fuck Maurice.
