a story i always tell people who i make play munchkin
david, zonky, neville and i were playing
and zonky starts bartering with neville
he says, "i see you're a wizard. i have this awesome wizard hat right here. it's like +5. i'll trade it to you for this, this and this." (pointing to some of neville's awesome equipment)
neville thinks about it, and they (if i remember correctly) went back and forth for quite a bit
then neville is like "sure, let's do that."
so they trade off, neville has this great wizard hat, zonky has a crapload from neville.
zonky's like, "nice doing business with you." then slaps down a "change class" card so that neville can no longer use the card.
a masterful move if i'd ever seen one.
hey you told me that story that one time when we were playing that one card game
i think it was old maid
maybe it was bridge?
MUNCHKIN! and yes, i tell everyone. it's an awesome story. we had a good night that night.
I only got the chance to hang out with Tonkman a couple of times, but, like everyone else is saying, he was fantastic.
Any man who would make out with Backwards Name just because a roomful of people tell him to (we weren't even paying him anything) is a good guy in my book.
i will also forever remember carving the penis-candle for neville with zonk at arse's house
he was just so completely impressed with the idea
he shaved that thing down
and he was so goddamn excited about the outcome of it
i remember when we were carefully putting hot wax over it to smooth it out
and he accidentally got some on me
and instead of going "are you okay?"
he just looks at me
and goes
"did you like that? do you want me to do it again?"
Way back when I said I wanted to bungy jump zonk said he would do it so one night I got a really loud and incomprehensible phonecall from an unknown long distance number, and it was him saying that he was going to jump with me. mully called shortly after clarifying what I had just heard.

I remember this one story he told us. Tonkman wasn't bashful about anything, especially sex.
And he was talking about how this girl had him handcuffed to the bed on a breezy summer night.
They were trying out some of that KY warming lube.
I guess they were out of condoms or something, so the girl left to go to the store and decided to leave him locked/tied up while she was gone. As he put it, she was gone a REALLY long time.
And he said the lube started getting tingly... and the window to the room was open and blowing through...
When she returned he was a mess and said something to the effect of "Sorry, Nature took care of me."
Thanks to everyone posting stories. I only knew him from here and XBLive and all, but he always seemed like a great guy. So it's good to hear stories about how awesome he was in actual life and all.

In may, just after I started posting here and everyone was ragging on me particularly hard for something stupid I said, he sent me a PM I've since deleted, but it said something to the effect of "You've got potential, and I like you just fine"
That was probably the reason I still have the balls to post here

i loved how blunt he was
he was so blunt with me
if i said something and he disagreed
he'd tell me why, he'd tell me right away, and then he'd always fall up with "i don't care how much we disagree you will always be my buddy"
then he'd slap me on the back and i'd nearly throw up
oh christ and his recent sex advice to me
JESUS
THANKS A LOT ZONKY NOW I'M NEVER GOING TO BE ABLE TO BE INTIMATE AGAIN WITHOUT THINKING ABOUT THAT
he's totally laughing at me right now i know he is

it wasn't really until the party at arsenic's a few months ago that I really even paid any attention to Joe
but pretty much from the moment I walked in the door and met him, I knew this cat was something different
goddamn charisma like what
seriously, without even trying, the guy was the life of the party
he's an amazing guy, one of the most genuinely funny dudes I've met in ages, and I'm going to miss his presence deeply

Or at DramaPAX when we were all at Captain Cthulhu's. Zonky was sleeping there since his bus was going to leave godawful early. Somehow we convinced him to kiss Backwards Name.
That's the only time I've seen Tonkman ever look confused/scared. But when it came to the actual kiss, of course he hammed it up and made it look like an epic kiss from a movie.

the last thing i got from him was a facebook message
after i was debating whether or not to go to his party yesterday
and his facebook said it was his birthday today
so on his wall i was like, "it's your BIRTHDAY? I HAVE to come then!"
he sent me this:
it's not. My birthday is in november, i just felt like getting some funny wall posts.
hahaha yeah when he connected on Skype I was all "happy birthday!"
and he was all "no no no it's not actually my birthday"
"oh so you just wanted some attention on Facebook, huh"
I remember this one story he told us. Tonkman wasn't bashful about anything, especially sex.
And he was talking about how this girl had him handcuffed to the bed on a breezy summer night.

tl;dr he got a blowjob from Nature.
would it be bad form to repost this for awesome? because I think this is awesome.

okay man
yeah it'll be good to have people emailing me tomorrow at work
almost everyone is on vacation
and i'm going to be doing nothing but sitting there with thoughts of zonky
Dammit, this is horrible. The only thing I really did with him was play CoD4, but even there he was awesome. I really wish that I had the chance to meet him, but just going from his posts here he was a stand-up guy.
when zonk and i tried out this tiny, tiny, like 400 sq ft at most cafe a while ago
he was raging with the sex advice
he was being normal voiced
just talking like it was the news
which was like, whatever - right
the cafe was filled with older folks, who would look over every so often while he was regaling me with a tale of how he'd inserted a vibrating egg in a girl and went out for dinner with her
but it was when i was shaking my head at his advice to me
that he suddenly ups his voice
and just basically yells,
"JUST RIDE HIM. JUST DO IT. DON'T GIVE HIM A CHOICE, JUST GOD DAMN DO IT. RIDE HIM HARD."

Zonk and I would spend time together now and then when we were in Vancouver. Around Rhia and I he wouldn't so much tell a lot of stories, but he had a lot of perspective on seemingly everything and was capable of really making anyone he hung around seem worth his time, like he was really happy to be around you.
Same night as that "goatse" pic he and I posed for together was taken, the three of us walked over the Granville bridge. He was afraid of looking over the side, if I remember right.
And the night that he and campion and bomb went bungie jumping, I was there too, and he took us to this restaurant in town that he'd been to before and talked up the food and how amazing it was. We sat outside on this really terrible porch, half of us baking in the sun. The owner was serving that night and we were having a hard time believing that the food would be worth it, but in an odd twist, his memory was actually accurate this time and the food was wonderful, as was the company.
