This was something I was thinking about when talking to Denny recently
in one of our threads about banana pancakes, suzuki's and vietnamese gangstas.
I thought it deserved it's own thread. At some point, we'll talk more about
pancakes, but for now, WHO ARE YOU AND WHY ARE YOU HERE?

Set it off.

I live in sunny SoCal (no surprise), and yes, I know NQ and the deadly Elektra, who is currently being rebuit to be faster, stronger, and expotentally more sinister than ever before.

I like the Lakers, but more the Showtime Lakers than the newest incarnation. I still think they have what it takes to make the playoffs, even despite this latest losing streak.

I did not go to USC, but I've been a fan of their football program for a long time, and had to suffer through Ted Tollner and Paul Hackett before Pete Carroll brought the glory back. He's brought fun and respect back to this program (the Todd MORONovich, roboQB from Hell, days are long gone). Practices are open, even a week before the Rose Bowl, to friends and family. After all, the players are still kids! We all keep forgetting that the Vince Youngs and Reggie Bushes and Matt Leinarts of collegiate football are "students", not pros, most not yet legal to drink (in CA, at least.. I dunno about Texas).

I used to be a huge hockey fan, until I could no longer pronounce 3/4 of the names of the players in the league.

I've always been a big Packer fan, only due to the fact that I own most books written about Vince Lombardi. The man coached 9 years in GB, and won five championships. Greatest Lombardi line, ever: "Dancing is a contact sport. Football is a hitting sport!" If you'd desperately like to succeed in life, all you need to do is study Vince Lombardi and the U.S. Army's Nine Principles of Military Warfare (not for war, of course, but to be utilized practically in business).

Of course, I'm a cartoonist, so the application of material like the above "principles" and The Art of War is limited. But for pure evil like Taymelo, it could be deadly.

I own a motorcycle, but no tatoos. I don't even wear a leather jacket.

I think PETA can blow me sideways! Models with the IQ of their "optimum weight divided by seven" as spokespeople is just flat out one of the dumbest things I've ever seen.

I like The Crystal Method and most music from the Madchester movement (Stone Roses, Charlatans, etc.).

That is all for now, careful that I do not reveal too much information to the mad scientist that is Taymelo and his evil minions, better known as paralegals.

My birth name Is David

However most people know me as Pooky the Gangsta, or so I'm called on the street.

I am an 18 year old dominatrix who is fascinated by rubik's cubes and animal genetalia.

What brought me here? Well, I don't know really...

I'm here because MOLA told me to sign up. He told me the Albanian mafia was going to come after me if I didnt.


No, seriously, i'm here because every other pistons message board isnt good enough.

Bullshit.

Jump in and post something or we'll ban your ass.

We like you. We really like you.

Women want you and men want to be you... and Giffman wants be you and do you all at the same time.

I'm a 34 year old attorney who absolutely hates his job to the point where I hate going to sleep at night, because it means I'm one step closer to waking up and going to work.

I'm currently looking for something better. Unfortunately for you guys, when it comes along, I won't have time to post here nearly as often.

But as of right now, enjoy the ride fellas. You get all of this Taymelo for the same low, low price, and we throw in a free jade pendent if you order now!

Tired of doing legal examinations for 30 year old Serbian immigrants? :D

I've always thought of becoming an Attorney, but every Lawyer I've ever known hates it. Pretty discouraging.

I come here as a wild card.

Living in the shithole of Keizer, Oregon, watching the Blazers suck is just too painful. When I watched a fateful exodus go on, I decided to lurk around and watch the results with the help of kdawg. The board appears to be an overnight success. I decided to adapt to local custom, make myself a laughingstock, and earn respect in uncanny ways. (PS, Denny, I still haven't seen that $50. It was TWELVE FUCKING HOURS, for Christ's sake.) THen, as time went on, I developed closer relations to those I know on here. I now talk to all three George brothers (since Steven revealed the last name, I assume it's now acceptable) and occasionally MOLA when I feel like getting bitchslapped/asking advice/scoring pot/advanced philosophical diatribe. I take jabs and Denny and TK, but it's all a big love fest.

Did I leave anything out? If so, ask it here.

Oh, and maybe we should have an official backstory thread so that posters completely understand where inside jokes come from. We are family. You're all my crazy drunk fucking uncles. Elektra is the hot cousin you know you're not supposed to touch. The kid is the prototypical little bro.

I live in the small city of Ottawa, Ohio, which is approximately 2.5 hours south of Detroit. Why I'm here? The most fun message board on the net, period.

I'm here because I am just too damn awesome to be tied down to any one place. I bring knowledge and disperse it only as I see fit.

For every kernel I release, I hold 99 more to myself.

I'm a silky-shirted legend.

I'm so happy I went through and read this thread, just for this.

You have gained 25 cool points for quoting that song.

BTW, your total for cool points is currently 72. Keep track.

Who am I?

My birth name is Archie and I'm a 20 year old bum. It took me five years to graduate(04) high school and I haven't done shit since. I have no car, no job, no girlfriend, but plenty of freedom! I'm just like every other bum out there. I do have my goals and dreams, but something bad always goes down that prevents me from acheiving them. I wanted to be a football player(I'm 6'6, 300) buuuuuuuut I have a bad heart and weak ankles. Now I want to be a sports analyst and journalist so I've been looking for schools to suit my needs. I may be starting WCCC this Tuesday but that's a stretch.

Love the Lions. Love the Pistons. Love the Tigers. Love Michigan. Tolerate the Red Wings. I stay true to the home teams. I'm not too sure what kind of fan I am. I'm not a homer, but I'm very unbiased. I always called myself an anti-homer homer, if that makes sense. :lol:

Why am I here?

Simple. Because this place is the shit. I post at a few other forums(some sports, some not) and this one is my favorite. It has a nice sports bar envoirment around here and I LOVE the people on this board, even the queers.
