Our long lost friend Jamesman

[GADZOOKS]

Jamesman use to be one of the more popular posters here. He is remembered for his forlorn loveline threads and strong opinions on videogames. Sometime in 2007 he had a manic attack and change almost all his previous posts into gibberish, destroying history, and breaking hearts.

For all we knew Jamesman died at sea that faithful night. But, he has reappeared on the internet. In video form.

Here are the videos, for those who don't read the chat thread. Scrounged up by our very own moderator Esuohlim. You'll learn about sweet potatoes, kissing, and may hear a YODA impression or two.

Hey who wants to hear Jamesman talk about a video game while he plays it? :rolleyes:

JamesmanX: Um, OK then
JamesmanX: Thanks for sharing?

GOOD TO HEAR FROM YOU TOO, BUDDY.

okay...so...uhhhhh we are playing Super Mario 3

http://www.avatarsplus.com/d/4184-3/Super+Mario.gif

it was uh one of the premier games for the Nintendo um Entertainment System in the early uh 90's

http://www.avatarsplus.com/d/4184-3/Super+Mario.gif

OK, you see there are a few options, 1 Player and 2 Player. And while this isn't a co-op game you can play with a friend. But you take turns which was a regular thing back in um those days

http://www.avatarsplus.com/d/4184-3/Super+Mario.gif

now you can see this game is 2D, which means our pal mario can only go left and right. He also has no real weapons except for powerups but he cant jump really high and you use.....that jump to defeat enemies

http://www.avatarsplus.com/d/4184-3/Super+Mario.gif
Oh yeah and this game was made into a movie called the Wizard...starring I think the guy from uhhh...boy meets world

http://www.avatarsplus.com/d/4184-3/Super+Mario.gif
Okay, that's level 1, I got a MUSHROOM. in my next video I will let the fans decided where we will go next, but uh we can only go to level 2 so I guess we'll uhh...

[Sam]

Weren't there pictures of him with some girl in a room and it looked like a girl's room and then it was found out that it was HIS ROOM?

[Chojin]

I used to be buddies with J-man, I have no idea what the fuck happened to him.

Chojin (AIM): http://i-mockery.com/forum/showthread.php?t=69699429
Chojin (AIM): apparnetly you are famous again!
JamesmanX: Um, OK then
JamesmanX: Thanks for sharing?

Chojin (AIM): no need to be a prick about it :<
JamesmanX: I honestly couldn't give a shit what goes on there
Chojin (AIM): why do you seem so upset
JamesmanX: I'm not
Chojin (AIM): well ok, talk to you again in another few years ;< jerk ;<
JamesmanX: It's a thread about a thread. And some pictures of me. So... OK then.
Chojin (AIM): emily is confirming you being a jerk
Chojin (AIM): 'there is no reason to say that unless he hates you'
JamesmanX: I'm sorry you think that
Chojin (AIM): i am sorry that my brain is so damaged that I would somehow construe 'thanks for sharing' to be anything but joyful comraderie

JamesmanX: It's a thread about something I'm up to and some pictures of what I look like. And apparently how much I suck. At the very least, I am aware of what I'm up to and what I look like, and at least some degree of how much I suck. I just don't see the reason to bring the thread to my attention
JamesmanX: I really don't know what to say about it
JamesmanX: "Yep, that sure is a thread about a thread, and some pictures."
Chojin (AIM): well for one thing I didn't know for sure it was you
Chojin (AIM): for another thing you've dropped off the face of the planet for the last 3 years
Chojin (AIM): so i thought i would use the thread as a reason to im you and say hello
Chojin (AIM): and you would go all 'haha BUSTED am i rite' and then we'd talk about old times and how you almost got to meet raiden
Chojin (AIM): but noooo you get all defensive and uppity
Chojin (AIM): PSSH NICE THREAD. ON THE INTERNET. I AM ABOVE SUCH THINGS.

[Chojin]

[Sam]

WHAT A DICK

[liquidstatik]

that was sad ;<

[Esuohlim]

"Cat's in the Cradle" should be played while reading that chatlog

[GADZOOKS]

I regret making this thread :(

IF I COULD TURN BACK TIME

IF I COULD FIND A WAY.....

[DuFresne]

Before I found this thread I was wondering why everyone had gotten a Stephen King avatar :lol

[Pandajuice]

What a bizarre thread.

Interweb psuedo-fame gone bad or something?

[Pub Lover]

FRIENDS MISSING OLD FRIENDS, YOU PERSON THAT NOT MY FRIEND! >:

vets 4 lyfe

[Pentegarn]

He comes off as an elitist jerk to me. Too bad, Chojin really seemed to want see how he was doing and he got all "Whatever, man" on him :(

[Terra]

That's just a "James" thing, though.

James was always that way.

It made James, "James."

[Pentegarn]

Maybe so. I can't dispute it as I don't know him.

That said, there is a time and place for that sort of act, and that time and place is not after hearing from someone you haven't spoken to in 3 years.

[Terra]

You don't know him at all?

Then stay the f*ck out of this thread, you newbie f*cktard d*pshit. Your opinions of *present* alumni are valid enough. But you can kiss your sorry d*ckless balls goodbye as to the forum history here.

If you're a gal: sorry!!!



PlZ deflate your C**ze and get thee on a thread of your peers. >(

Dear Powers,

I hope I was okay here. I was being kind and Proactive ( excepte for the crap)

[liquidstatik]

thanks for keeping the bad words out of here :x

[Terra]

Oh shut up, asshole! :)

[liquidstatik]

:x

[Terra]

:moon

[liquidstatik]

I DON'T GET OFF TO MOMS OSORRY

[Terra]

Who would give a sh*t?

You Arkansas trailor trash?

[liquidstatik]

i didn't mean to start a fight :(

[liquidstatik]

OH WAIT I CAN IGNORE :O

[liquidstatik]

:rolleyes

[Terra]

Good for you, big boy. I'm glad you have that feature. :)

[McClain]

Jamesman was too much of a dork to be an elitist jerk. That and Shipwreck was SOOOO much cooler. He should have spent his time trolling this forum under that guise.
Yeaaarrrg!

<3 JMAN YOU FGT

[executioneer]

mcclain are you secretly captain robot :(

[GADZOOKS]

You see this 10 dollars

This 10 dollars represents that I CARE about the quality of my message board

and that I DO NOT settle for less

[Pentegarn]

You don't know him at all?

Dear Powers,

Cute. Yes, clearly, because of an arbitrary date next to my avatar, my opinion based off what I saw in this thread has no validity. One day, maybe when some silly amount of time passes, you will judge me based off my words and thoughts rather than a silly join date, that day is not this one though it seems.

Plus I'm not going to be a meenie anymore.


Well, I see how good your word is.

[Chojin]

shut up

[Pentegarn]

Clever.

[GADZOOKS]

This thread has ran it's course.

[Nick]

Sh*t

[Fathom Zero]

I never had a problem with any person, and you'd know if I did. I'm an easy going guy as far as people go.

By the way McClain, your messages appear to be edited in the past before you even post them.

[Pub Lover]

ALL YOU KIDS GET OFF MY DAMN LAWN!

[mew barios]

this reminds me of the time when i beat jamesman at wc3 and he called me a cheater and i thought he was kidding but he wasn't.

[Mockery]

To this day, he still wakes up in the middle of the night screaming with a cold sweat... and it's all because of that game of wc3, Mew.

[executioneer]

By the way McClain, your messages appear to be edited in the past before you even post them.

that's because it's his signature :x

[Pub Lover]

Oh wow, a joke? Really? Thanks for telling everyone, Willie! :D

[executioneer]

I'M THE JOKE RUINER GUY

[GADZOOKS]

I don't trust The Trespasser to be making a joke.

[Pub Lover]

It was McClain's joke.

Jake wouldn't know funny if it bit his cock off & preserved it in randomness.

[Tadao]

Fuck Jamesman

[Fat_Hippo]

I'M THE JOKE RUINER GUY

GET OFFA MY TURF BITCH!

[McClain]

Damnit. Now I need a new signature!

[Misdemonar]

GET OFFA MY TURF BITCH!

I'm gunna uppercut you in the cunt

[Sacks]

CERTAINLY NOTHING THAT CRAZY WILL BE HAPPENING IN THE REALITY OF THIS MESSAGE BOARD.

[Fat_Hippo]

I hope not. I don't think my cunt can take that kind of punishment.

[Dr. Boogie]

I just assumed that James became so overbearing that his head imploded, and from the looks of Chojin's chat log, it doesn't look like I was that far off.

[Chojin]

Yeah, really, I was nothing but nice to that guy. He's a huge mortal kombat buff and when my company was in preliminary talks with Midway about licensing for a game in the MK series I even turned to him for some advice on keeping things canon.

WELL I GUESS HE HAS SOMETHINGAWFUL NOW HE HAS BIGGER THINGS TO WORRY ABOUT AMIRITE

[Dr. Boogie]

He's probably pissed that they put a moratorium on e/n threads.

This picture is 6 years old now. You can tell because I put the date in the pic.

Godspeed.
