Getting older on the messageboard

[Lo_Lyfe]

Do you think your posts have changed a lot? Do you have more to say, or less? Would you be embarrassed by some of the old stuff you posted? Does age mellow you out online? Is there such a thing as too many questions?

I have mellowed. I'm not as fun as I used to be.

[Lo_Lyfe]

No, never.
Yeah, those photos were your 'Do the Bartman', and I'm hoping that after you expose us to your 'Deep Trouble', you realise it can be a slippery slope.

[roosta]

im like an old wine.

i smell like piss.

[Lo_Lyfe]

im like an old wine.

i smell like piss.
And fuck the carpet up.

[backwoods]

huh, what.
nah, I'm the same.
lol

[QueenAdrock]

I know when I first got here, I was one of those douchebags who put Beastie Boy lyrics in my signature and then decided to give credit to whoever sang it.

Like
________________________________________________
"Be true to yourself and you will never fall!"
-Mike D
________________________________________________

Yeah, like people on the board don't know Mike D sang that. Come on. We're the official message board dedicated to the band, chances are, if they're on the board, the quote is neither inspiring nor original, and there's no need to give "due credit" to whoever sang it because it makes you look douchey.

Yep, that was me. I'm embarrassed by that, but I did outgrow it.

[QueenAdrock]

On a side note, you know what else sucks? I hate when people say "Homer Simpson" instead of just Homer. Our society knows two famous Homers: an ancient one who wrote books, and one that is a cartoon character from our current pop culture. So I hate it when someone says something to me like "This reminds me of that one time Homer Simpson decided to buy a plow!" You can just say Homer. Chances are, if someone doesn't know who you're talking about, they're an idiot.

[Bob]

i'm far cooler now

oh, unless you count posting on a message board for about 7 years and having over 10,000 posts (counting ones from old versions of the board) as being uncool

in that case i've become exponentially less cool

[Dorothy Wood]

I used to write really long replies to everything. also, I posted a lot in BG and fought with people about whether or not they were "real" fans. :o


so yeah, I haven't changed.

[kleptomaniac]

i used to type 'cause as "cuz" and was as "wuz" oh how it makes me cringe :(

[Freebasser]

I'm less about the fish-gutting.

[Caribou]

I've probably posted far too many things that are way too personal and that noone even remotely cares about, but this place was/is an outlet.
I'm a teensy weensy bit more careful now though, because there's a bunch of people that know I post here.

[beastieangel01]

I'm embarrassed of every post I've made every single day of my life.

interesting i just edited my sig 2 nights ago & that was my sig:mad::o
but you are right the reason i deleted my mike d quote was cuz i thought it was really corny to have it as my signature, but the pac quote is stayin.


.....i've noticed that i'm starting to get more hesitant about what i post in beastie general....if you look at my first posts on here they're all fangirl post...i use to post religously in the naked mike d thread..thank god that thread got deleted it was some fun times but i think i was going insane in that thread:o

[kleptomaniac]

haha we'll be bringing that thread back up for the rest of our lives :D

[DipDipDive]

Does age mellow you out online?

Yes, but only online. Not in real life.

[Freebasser]

haha we'll be bringing that thread back up for the rest of our lives :D


Just thinking about it made me bring something back up :/

[Dorothy Wood]

Yes, but only online. Not in real life.

yeah, no kidding, I'm still raging against the machine.

[DipDipDive]

yeah, no kidding, I'm still raging against the machine.

Me too, whereas online, it's like smooth sailing in margaritaville 24/7.

[Dorothy Wood]

online's all cat's in the cradle and paul simon albums from the 90's. maybe some bobby mcferrin.

[jackrock]

I always feel embarrassed when old threads that I've posted in are bumped.

On another note...Everybody, if you can, do the Bartman, Shake your body turn it out, do the Bartman!

[adam_f]

Looking back, I was more of a douchebag than I am now...that being said, my vagina is a lot cleaner now, which I find odd.

[SugarInTheRaw]

Wow. Should I not let people know I started posting here?

[Caribou]

You can tell anyone you like, but then don't post really personal shit on here that these people don't know about and could use against you.

[roosta]

the term "douchebag" is ridiculous.

you people need to stop using it.

[na§tee]

i was always awesome.

i used to type "yr" instead of "your", though. that's it kids. same stylee. i'm REAL LIKE J-LO.

i dunno. i guess after 9 years or whatever, of course i have changed, i just don't know if that has manifested itself in any of my internetty habits.

Fucking racist.

[Drederick Tatum]

you know who else is racist? nastee, she's racist as.

[jabumbo]

i never really had anything to interesting to say then, and i don't now


so i guess nothing really has changed accept my love for jarred mushrooms

[Big Gus]

My typings always been all over the place. I was here ages ago in 2003. There's still some sort of internet relics here from it but I got "lost" in some kind of board situation and never came back for 3 years.

[ericlee]

I think I'm the same as I ever was. I'm not here with intentions of "stroke me" or anything.

I'm here to try to make ya'll laugh. Also to relieve steam and I notice that the majority of you are here for the same thing.

I've grown quite accustomed to alot of you and would really wouldn't mind hanging out with you if I can ever find the time.

Needless to say, my posts had stayed the same. Some stupid and some rule.

[Lo_Lyfe]

Yeah, eric. Your posts have always been good to read.

Also, it would be assumed that the question about aging online doesn't refer to how you age in real life, and that is why the distinction was made. That's for the smart-mouthed ladies up the back.

[HEIRESS]

I used to be much happier and had way way way more energy

[ericlee]

Well thank god for that cause irl, I've been fat to skinny to buff to skinny to chubbs while I've been on this board and yet my posts still carry the trademark Hetfield "grrrrahhh" after you read them. :cool:

C'mon now, I know you read them like that grrrrrrah.

[Schmeltz]

I like to think that my posts have scarcely varied in their pretentious, sanctimonious, know-it-all tone throughout my tenure on this message board.

[TurdBerglar]

im no where near as energetic as i use to be

[a.k.a me]

I used to include a lot of smilies in my posts back in the day (1999-2000)

[Lyman Zerga]

i was an over emotional, naive shitbag now my feelings are so owned by depressions that im almost too cool/dead

[ET]

Word. 12 smilies at least. A smilie is worth a thousand words. And 12 smilies are worth 678,943,512 words.

Also, word on the energy and happy thing.

[Lyman Zerga]

my timing still sucks

[ET]

Mine too. At least we're consistent!

[Gareth]

I used to be much happier and had way way way more energy

yeh same except my shits were always comprehensible
hmm basically i care less these days
aka me...old

[Pres Zount]

you know who else is racist? nastee, she's racist as.
She hasn't changed.

I can't tell if I have changed or not, and I certainly don't think anyone remembers me enough to notice for me.

[na§tee]

you know who else is racist? nastee, she's racist as.
b..b...black people don't get cancer! :mad:

[Pres Zount]

What about Kylie Minogue?


Bye underage girlie! :(

[Lex Diamonds]

Do you think your posts have changed a lot? Do you have more to say, or less? Would you be embarrassed by some of the old stuff you posted? Does age mellow you out online? Is there such a thing as too many questions?

I have mellowed. I'm not as fun as I used to be.
I'd say yes to all of the above.

[DandyFop]

I was just looking at old threads I'd made a year or so ago and I was like "wow....drunk thread...sex thread....drunk and sex thread....drunk thread" and I remember that time period going out and drinking every weekend to the point of excess because I couldn't deal with myself sober apparently. Not to say I don't drink still but that pattern has definetly taken a dive. I'm thankful for that personally and publicly so I don't continue to make quite such an ass of myself. But don't expect me to never have a drunk thread again...c'mon now.

I don't really remember what I was like when I first started posting - one thing I do miss though is that I had a lot of closeish friendships that have waned over the years. But ahh that's how a thug life is.

[camo]

my threads gradually got less and less beastie boys associated as time went on.

true for me too, but i still post BG just not as much

[camo]

true for me too, but i still post BG just not as much

yeah I still post there too. It's only been in the last six months that I've posted in this section. Kinda wish I hadn't started now :D

aaaaahahhaha! :cool: no no. i meant, uh.. i dunno what i meant. i guess i was struggling to think of some internetty habits to talk about. i have become a lot more mature on here. i do take things a lot more seriously, but i always have. it was strange coming back after a sort of long hiatus where i could take it or leave it and having lots of people who had sort of become part of the, er, bricks and mortar here and me not knowing who they were. but learning about new people was fun!

i would like to share a pint or two and a scotch egg with quite a lot of you, and for that i am grateful. all i really hope for of this place is that some of you wouldn't mind doing the same with me should the chance arise.

dorks.

[Lex Diamonds]

I'd definitely get drunk and share my meaty eggs with you. :)(y)

[Helvete]

I don't know, you tell me how I have changed. But I've been here 4 years now, so it's quite a while. Well, I don't come here as much, that's one thing.

[na§tee]

I'd definitely get drunk and share my meaty eggs with you. :)(y)
for years i've been waiting for you to say those very words, padster. years!

[Lyman Zerga]

you became a man! a man machine!

[Laver1969]

So I hate it when someone says something to me like "This reminds me of that one time Homer Simpson decided to buy a plow!" You can just say Homer. Chances are, if someone doesn't know who you're talking about, they're an idiot.

So exactly who is Homer Simpson? Is this OJ's brother-in-law?

[Pres Zount]

I would prefer people to say Homer Simpson, otherwise it is ruining Homer the poet for us ancient history buffs :<

[SugarInTheRaw]

i'm REAL LIKE J-LO.


I like. There's always room for J-Lo.

[SugarInTheRaw]

you became a man! a man machine!

Don't forget me!

[Lex Diamonds]

for years i've been waiting for you to say those very words, padster. years!
I've just been patiently waiting for an opportunity. It's not easy to get that sentence into a conversation, I can tell you!

[abcdefz]

I was kinda thinking the same thing.

[Lex Diamonds]

Whatever, Odysseus. Save it for the Trojans.

[skra75]

I'm embarrassed of every post I've made every single day of my life.

lol x 40 :o

(lb)
:(

[Lyman Zerga]

Don't forget me!


well youre pretty manly for a noob twat

[a.k.a me]

Word. 12 smilies at least. A smilie is worth a thousand words. And 12 smilies are worth 678,943,512 words.



Damn!

That's too much, even for a 10 year old.

[miss soul fire]

a.k.a me is that you?:eek:

[a.k.a me]

a.k.a me is that you?:eek:


Yeah it's me.

[SugarInTheRaw]

well youre pretty manly for a noob twat

That's cool. Thank you, Lyman Zerga.

[ToucanSpam]

Well, this is a good thread.


I think that when I came here I was 19 or so, and I was definately immature like most guys that age. After three years and some new life experiences I think I'm probably much more mature. Sometimes a glimmer of the old me comes up but I feel more reserved about things now. I've made mistakes here and there but I definately don't think about this board any time other than when I'm online on the board.

It's a good place to come read some interesting conversations every once in a while. I usually don't post a lot anymore because I just prefer to read and listen insted of compose new threads and try to be interesting or appealing.

I will tell you later

[TAL]

I'm just the same as in 1999.

Yes, I'm still 26.

[ET]

Damn!

That's too much, even for a 10 year old.


I act like a 5 year old so it balances out. (n) :eek: (y) :confused: (lb)

[zorra_chiflada]

i suppose i'm slightly more laid back, and less of a militant bitch. and less inclined to pick fights for no reason. and less likely to get offended.

[Justin]

I can now stay erected for a longer period of time.


Thats about it.
