Lounge Lizards Forum

Happy New Year peeps.

Take a moment to reflect on the notable threads, conversations, topics or debates here on InReview in 2006.

To everyone here thanks for all that you do. Here's to a kick ass 2007.

Beers for everyone!

-HECK!

Happy new year.

So, how old is Inreview this time around. It's 4 years old in January I think.

I have to admit the following thread kind of took me by surprise because I never anticipated such a debate.

Gay Penguins SHOCK the heartland

Classic.

-HECK!

Actually, look what I found in the Way Back Machine... InReview is actually hella older...

This is a screengrab from the first InReview circa 2000 or so.

-HECK!

Where in the world did you find that? That's the old Inreview Marc and Sean had, I'v heard of it before, never seen it.

That's trippy.

The Way Back Machine, man. You never been to archive.org? It's a trip. It has tens of billions of web pages stored for the past 10 years or so. You can look at old pages from whenver.

-HECK!

Hey, that's good to know, in case this joint ever goes belly up, our posts will live in infamy over there are archieve.org

I will have to check it out.

So what was your favorite thread of the year, hoss?

-HECK!

I had fun in the zombie thread Fuscia started. http://www.inreview.com/topic-37676.html

Happy New Year INR... we're gonna be four. No more diapers!


My favorite thread? It was probably the STHU thread in the Flamers Ward.

Happy New Year INR.

My favorite thread is Bogus Song Lyrics that ain't right. Oh how I love that one. It was so fun.

Okay, I'm with that thread too, Sherry. I love reading the lyrics that you and Whidden come up with. They crack me up.

HAP-PY NEWWW WYEEEEARS!!!!!

(everyone on Inreview just got one of those horn thingys blown in their ears and a nice beer-smelling slobbery kiss on the lips)

Whattup Cho, Merry Happy New Christmas Year.

-HECK!

back at yah bro

the site is lookin pretty spiffy today. happy birthday inr! <3

Doesn't it though?! The colors on INR just make the place rock!

It had 3 years this morning, but now it's fixed to 4 years.

We are 4!!!

It said 3 like an hour ago, Marc was on so he probably changed it.

-HECK!

DAMN. 4 years, that's like high school. We can all graduate now and go to college.

Crap, 4 years.

Two jobs, two apartments and 1 car ago. Snaps.

-HECK!

I was unemployed when I started here. Have had two different jobs since then.

I moved. Got a new dog and Inreview named him. Tell you the truth, I can't remember what life was like pre-Inreview. I don't think I even knew what a message board was.

I was on this other message board at the time. Made quite a name for myself. Then I came here looking for Matrix info and was stolen away. Sad.

Yeah, it's hard to remember not coming here. Man, has it been that long.

Considering that I mainly post here when I am at work, technically I've been paid a lot of money while here. Excellent.

-HECK!

Yeah.. we're 4. Growing up!

Let's see... in four years what's happened for me.

Lived in four different places.
Been in three relationships.
Had two surgeries.
Only one job.

Not too bad... 4, 3, 2, 1!

Man, I was in my early-20's. This sucks. I'm depressed now. You've taken my youth InReview! Damn you!

-HECK!

That's nothing. I lost my virginity to Inreview. Top that sucker.

Okay... explain that, Whidden!

I love Lily! She filled that hole in my heart. I'll never forget my Michu, he was my buddy, my best furball, my kittenfuss, and I swear that if I EVER get my book published there will be a dedication that reads "in loving memory of my own Stoffie, my kittenfuss Michu Dragonseed 1991-2006" Lily fills me with such joy. I needed a cat in my life, and she is just perfect. Oh and NO hairballs!

You know what... that makes me feel really good. I'm glad that I was able to do something so very important for you. That fills my heart.

Oh I forgot to tell you, when I was at your house, I had to park a block away, and in the window of this blue house was a FAT cat that looked like Lily!

REALLY?! OMG! Could that have been the mother of Lily? After all, someone put her in a box, and dumped her right by our door... in our patio area. So, all I can think is that someone who lived near us, dumped the Lily, because they either didn't want her, or she was just too much to handle. She is a handfull... and she will make your household (she already has) a much more lively one in 2007.

Kris is was scary how much she looked like Lily. She had the same dark stripe on her side, but she was a much older cat. I totally think that our Lily goat was too much to handle. She is sweet as hell, but she needs a ton of attention and she eats everything!

Man I have been here four years doesn't see like that long but you know what they about time flying when you have fun. Lets see in four years I have:

Been officially discharged (honorably) from the army
Got a new job that I love
Rented 2 flats
Bought a house
Started playing soccer again
Met this nice girl
Married that nice girl
Bought a dog ( well we get him on Moday )


Also Fuscia Mr F is not a defector what kind of man would he be if he did not answer his call of duty?

Oh, and I learned what a "kittenfuss" was.

-HECK!

My life seems so monotonous that the last four years just seem to run together. I can't tell where one year ends and the next one begins But, in the last year:

~ I started working.

~ My brother's wife became "infected" and nine months later gave unnatural birth to a larva.

~ My oldest brother and his wife got a divorce. He now has a very nice girlfriend with three kids of her own, all significantly older than my brothers six year old.

~ I moved into a new house.

~ I was finally allowed to have a checkbook The first year of my life that I haven't been completly broke.

~ I got fired from my job.

~ And I met a nice, fluffy soul who actually seems to like putting up with me (or so I'm told). Next Saturday will be a year and they actually haven't gotten on my nerves yet. And that's a miracle all by itself

~ Oh yeah, I got to hug Voltaire at Dragon*CON this last year too
