I'm drunk right now!

This was the first forum I ever posted on. Holds a very special place in my internetty heart. Great personalities. Like Bob, the hilariously funny forever virgin. Although I'm assuming he's had sex by now. Nastee, the good looking Scottish bird. Dandyfop, the super cute chick who's now a bloody good stand up comic. That guy who I forget the name of, who flooded this place with posts for about a year including a pic of himself naked except a tie that covered his dicknballs.

Ahhhh memories

[Randetica]

You can't go wrong when you have a guy rapping in response to himself over 200 times.

What's up kids!

Mookie is 13 and a high school freshman and my youngest is 10. Talk about feeling old!

Speaking of, 50 is rapidly approaching.

[P of R]

I thin kabout this place from time to time and get all nostalgic. It makes me kinda sad sometimes. I kinda miss it.

And you can't help but wonder if everything is good with all the old guys and gals.

Anyway a big hug to all the oldies.

Unreal. You were 21 like a year ago.

I've been coming here since...ekhhhh... the late 90's? I've had a bunch of different user names, and I never really contributed that much. But I'd pop in every now and again, and I still read it quite a bit.

It's weird for me because - and don't take this the wrong way - but the Bboys are and have always been my favorite group of any genre, and I still listen to their records almost every day. So to me they're just as active as ever....... but then I remember that they're not (at least not in the way I remember them), and that MCA is dead, and that this place barely gets a dozen people to reply to anything.

It all just petered out so quietly. No big group break-up, no shutting down of the website when the band retired, so scandal that ended the whole Beastie train.

I just wasn't looking and it all stopped. I never met them and they never even knew I existed, but I felt like I saw the Boys every day for decades. Now... I dunno. Maybe I'll be getting a sandwich sometime and bump into Adrock. What would I say? "When's the new album coming out?" "How's Biz Markie?"

[Adam]

Coming here since 90s too. Was a teenager. Now I'm closer to 40 than 30.

I still think about the boys. Still listen to the albums. This place and the band shaped my life more than what seems reasonable. But wouldn't change it. Thanks BBS, thanks BBoys

[Bitchamachacha]

Shiiiit, y'all even sound old! "Back in my day , I had to wait on AOL dial up to load before I could log in. And there was no facebook, or Instagram, and the BBMB was different colors and had more threads and blahh..blah..blah....."

Just kidding. Love you guys.

->->-> Will be 41 in one week, joined at age 26.

I just got a chance to read this, and damn. It made my heart hurt. So, so very true. I always assumed they'd always be here, and this board and all of you awesome people would always be here. It's like having family, and you get comfortable and think home will be here forever, because it always was.

last time I logged in was 1-1-2009

since then I got my grail, Beastie Boys 12" action figures, now I can move on..............

Also now I get help cleaning and organizing at home (3 hours a week! ) and free dental care (as I've been scared of dentists) for four years to begin with. I don't know if it covers free teeth (I have two missing), but there could be a chance.

It started of as a bit of a joke; her noticing my obsessive collecting, forgetting dates, getting super annoyed at tiny little problems with our new house (cracks in skirting boards, scuffs on walls etc), hating being touched and preferring my own space and company.

How has it changed your life now that you've been diagnosed?

Sorry to not respond to you guys. Interesting, the similarities in behavior. I got a new job that is a lot easier for me emotionally, because I am around other quiet people, some who may be on the spectrum as well...though I don't want diagnose...and I've not been diagnosed. But it's kinda funny, I'm like "why is that person so cold to me? What did I do?" And then I realize it's how people see me sometimes, and maybe it's awesome that they don't want to small talk, ha. Definitely feeling better and less anxious and depressed than when I had to work with the public...I was very sensitive to sounds and people's voices, to the point that I would physically shake. I didn't realize how bad it was until I was away from it.
Anyway, hope you guys are doing well!

Wow, I remembered my password. I never really made any friends on this, but I sure wasted a bunch of hours between '04-'09 attempting to do so.
