Re: Random Thoughts Thread
Looks like Photobucket is down...? My sexy old man isn't showing up and neither are other some other avatars.
I never heard that Racketboy story. Interesting.
EDIT: Whoa now my sexy old man is back... who knows what happened...

Re: Random Thoughts Thread
The friends must be from another country because I don't see "Reichert" being hard to pronounce. It's Rhy-curt, right?DinnerX wrote:racketboy wrote:I was just thinking.... there are a lot of people on here with interesting nicks on here and I'm sure many of them have a unique story behind them. So, I was hoping we could all share how we came up with our names.
I'll start....
Mine started my freshman year in college. My roommates (all four of us were freshman -- can you imagine), always had a hard time pronouncing my last name correctly. So instead of trying they just called me Racket (which sounds fairly close).
Whenever they introduced me to somebody, they intoduced me as Racket (my roommates were a little "different"). I always got funny looks from people when this happened. Sometimes I just said, "Hi, my name's is actually..." After 3 years (I stopped school after that) it kinda spread and stuck with me.
So anyway, I just took "racket" and threw a "boy" on the end of it and got "racketboy". Simple enough, huh?

My high school English teacher had the same last name... He was a dick though, and not a particularly good teacher.gtmtnbiker wrote:The friends must be from another country because I don't see "Reichert" being hard to pronounce. It's Rhy-curt, right?

Re: Random Thoughts Thread
When is Family Guy finally going to end? I can't believe people still watch it. Even if I liked that show, aren't seasons 4-current supposed to suck?
For that matter, I don't know why CSI, NCIS, and The Simpsons are still on either.

Because they don't suck as much as other American television shows.

For that matter, i find pretty much all the shows on Adult Swim retarded as shit, i like to think i have a absurd and sarcastic sense of humor, but those shows were meant for like pot heads or someone drunk off there ass.BoringSupreez wrote:When is Family Guy finally going to end?

Re: Random Thoughts Thread
As a "pot head" I find that offensive. I can't stand anything on Adult Swim, Family Guy, or anything Simpsons post-2005. Pot doesn't cause bad taste ya know.Hazerd wrote:For that matter, i find pretty much all the shows on Adult Swim retarded as shit, i like to think i have a absurd and sarcastic sense of humor, but those shows were meant for like pot heads or someone drunk off there ass.BoringSupreez wrote:When is Family Guy finally going to end?

Anyways, I have no clue why any of those shows are still alive. I guess enough people still watch them.

Actually, one of the guys with the best taste I know IRL is a pothead.RyaNtheSlayA wrote:As a "pot head" I find that offensive.

Yep. What I don't get is why people are still watching that junk. There's much better entertainment to be found on CN or The Hub.RyaNtheSlayA wrote:Anyways, I have no clue why any of those shows are still alive. I guess enough people still watch them.
Which is sad, because I can remember the first time I watched it I thought it was just about the best channel I had ever seen (I was a kid at the time, ironically). It's fallen so very far.Xeogred wrote:Yeah, Adult Swim is pure trash nowadays.

Which is why its time block is so late at night. They know their audience, I'll give them that.Hazerd wrote:For that matter, i find pretty much all the shows on Adult Swim retarded as shit, i like to think i have a absurd and sarcastic sense of humor, but those shows were meant for like pot heads or someone drunk off there ass.BoringSupreez wrote:When is Family Guy finally going to end?
