For a couple of years there were accounts where all the comments they made had a theme, usually the username was related. That’s how ShittyWatercolor started; someone would describe something in a comment and that would make shitty watercolor artwork of it.

There were tons of them. I remember another that would replace words in the comment with a link to a Magic the Gathering card where the title of the card would fill in the rest of the sentence.

There was another that would

so your brain could read them even though nothing was spelled properly.

There were a few threads where they’d Assemble like the Avengers and it would be a bunch of folks all playing off one another. It was glorious, and then it all just kind of faded away…

New dystopian achievement unlocked:

Age verification for bird watching.

I know I wasn’t there that early, but I was around for rage comics, Spacedicks, and the rise & fall of the novelty accounts.

I remember reading about some crazy military guy that was like charging machine guns with a bayonet and winning, or something equally absurd. He was like the one Centurion that lived three ages later and is now like the best guy in the army.

Can’t think of his name & I need to go to bed since I’ve had like 3 hours of sleep in the last 48 hours so I can’t fall down the “crazy military story” rabbit hole right now. I’m sure someone smarter than me can link a Wikipedia page.

I would bet they have the “non existent” list & were trying to get her to confirm their hit list… Then they can say “These names were confirmed” even though those were the only ones they asked about.

I’ll be your polar opposite…

I’ll dig a little trap door spider cave, bury a tiny house, and go full yokai.

If you’re touched by the ouRKaoS, you get 100 years of bad luck for you and your heirs…

When guests over stay their welcome, I get a text message & start stalking MF’s.

There’ll be a couple of R’s on her list, but they’ll either be dead or no longer in power.

As a midwesterner w/ a bit of gun knowledge: I’d guess a Mossberg 500, or a Maverick 88.

Scarlet Maiden in another fun one; A rougelite Metroidvania - like a NSFW Dead Cells w/ lower difficulty.
