I was smoking a bowl earlier and had some nice thoughts about this site (more specifically, the forums).
All the people that used to gather here have pretty much moved on. You got the last of the last holdouts like Tadao, Zelda, Aaaaarg, and that guy who only posts in the Television and Film thread. But for the most part, anybody who was once here has ended their association with the site. Who the fuck knows what they're up to now? Having fucking babies and shit, probably. Most of the users here were good guys and I wish them all the best. For example, I hope Willie is losing his weight and I hope that Guitar Woman has long ago OD'd on heroin.
The very people that founded this website? Where are they now? Rog is doing computer shit, I know that much. But what about Protoclown? Max Burbank? They're probably doing fine, but the important thing is that they've all grown past this. They've moved on.
It's crazy how long I-Mockery has been around, and it's crazy to compare the total post numbers over the years. I wonder if any of the past forum members even remember coming here anymore.
If all that sounded gay as fuck, I'm sorry. I can't be a fag in real life so I have to do it through my writing.

earlier this month i met somebody who has been an internet acquaintance since 2000. our association is old enough to have a license and a job, and is far older than any of my ~irl~ friendships (those that i haven't actively damaged or passively neglected to death at least).
I still see gw post here once in awhile. I still have Seththomas's address somewhere. I always wanted to send him a nice pipe and tobacco as an apology for years ago. He may not even remember this place.
So we went to dinner at this classy Italian ristorante and this girl came. It was her first time going out after having her baby so she wasn't used to alcohol.
She went on this five minute drunken rant about how teenagers have it so easy with websites because they just click and drag pictures where they want them to be. They didn't have to figure out html coding for pages if you wanted bouncing stars next to words or even have text that is the color red.
At the end of the rant she raised her wine glass in the air like she was going to empty a clip and yelled at the top of her lungs:
