Okay, who has an idea for this shithole?

You don't have to be a dead celebrity to have a monologue, but it helps.

This base's current function is:

1) To allow people to write monologues, either as themselves or "gimmick" characters

2) To post in a secure, encrypted environ when they are inebriated or intoxicated.

Not enough of either has been going on lately. But actually, Pinback and gsdgsd may be coming out to Colorado at the same time next month, at which point the ENTIRE BBS ought to be one giant drunk holding tank. But, specifically, this base.

I'm trying to imagine these get togethers that y'all have. I'm imagining several people sitting around an appartment each at their own computer making posts on a web forum. Am I the only one here who posts LESS when I have more going on in the REAL WORLD?

Hey there, Snuff.

Well, there wasn't any hot computer action going on when five of us got together in Vegas. I think, even, that One of the Bruces had his laptop with him. Sure, we played a few arcade games at the Classic Gaming Expo, but that's what you're supposed to do. It was definitely very social.

What's it going to be like in November, should ICJ, Vitriola, gsdgsd and Benjamin "Pinback" Parrish all hit the town at the same time? Some pool will be played, some beers consumed, some stories told, but mostly it'll be all about book, movie, cat, insulin, movie.

I really wish we had a based that only dealt with threaded comments, like we had on PWC2 BBS.

Did I mention that the bunch of us posting over there was one of the greatest runs anyone ever had on the Internet, Gerrit? Did I mention that? I should mention that more often.

Ah, those were the days. We packed and brought the funny every day like it was a brown bag lunch.
