AOL newbs actually exist. They are no longer a myth.

So as we were all casually chatting on #gamedev about fairly random things (like usual), when a certain "vipejc" logged onto the channel via the site's jIRC client claiming to have brilliant hockey game design ideas. Anyway, he was a complete idiot (and has actually signed up to the forums already), but what the funniest and perhaps scariest fact of all was - that he uses AOL. Yep, folks, he uses AOL. He was a complete idiot that uses AOL. All of the AOL stereotypes applied to him. Truly astounding. And without further adue, from beginning to very end; The Tragic Tale of an AOL Escapee. Enjoy!

I just realized how stupid most of the things I said where. Typing when your tired is hard.

It's ok. It was nigh 4am for all of us, plus vip's totally overshadowed you.

That browser is one I have not seen in a long time. Is it a good one and is it safe?

I just wasted the past 20 minutes of my life reading that IRC log.

That was good.

I am intrigued by the notion of "#gamedevwithaddedsex".

Wow, that's funny.

On another note, I just noticed that Drevay's name isn't Devray. That's how I've 'always' thought of it (since I returned to this site almost 2 years ago). Shows how observant I am. (Or maybe I have mild dyslexia?)

I've never met anyone that bad IRL or in chat; the old help wanted forums are the worst I've seen.
