So in the late 90's I used to read this little rogue comic about videogames called Penny Arcade. I loved the comics, the posts, the Bench, the phorum, the fans. But eventually I got too busy with life and lost touch. Both with the comic and videogames.

The other day, for some reason, an old comic punchline came to mind. And I thought of Penny Arcade again, decided to check what they were up to... and wow, they're a company now? They're on 2010's Time 100 list?? I see something about a series, more games and the con is still going strong? That's amazing.
(By the way, Ms. Penny Arcade is no longer among us. Well, on the internet, at least.)

I see here that Tycho and Gabe no longer read the forums (ah...), but I would like to say, well done sirs. Well done.
Over, out and about.

    I've been here since 2006 and I never post. Most of my posting was actually done in the Pokemon thread for trades and battles, something I only played for a few months.

    I don't even know why I don't post, I just keep reading and never get to the posting. Doesn't help that my average session on here is maybe five to ten minutes.

    Old fogeys vs. Lurkers thread gooooo!

    When did the forums change over from grey and blue? I started lurking back when that happened, but then decided I had better things to do with my life and stopped lurking. And now here I am again.

    Which I guess means my time is worthless now. Yay!

    I remember a friend got me reading the comic, and then I noticed the forum, and read a few posts, and was all, "this could be fun and interesting. I'll make an acc-...what's this? I should lurk first? Hmm, okay..."

    Three months later I made an account. Pretty sure my first post was at least two months after that, and my first thread was several more months down the line.

    I really did not want to be that guy, is what I'm saying.

    One time I made a drunken thread here about the french horn, king of horns. It went pretty well, considering.

    So how'd you customize your dildo?

    You put your schlong into a tube filled with a silicone/putty substance. You leave it in there for a little bit then the magic happens and you have your very own dildo modeled after yours truly.

    I went with the natural skin tone.

    But it also glows in the dark.
