I joined following my brother introducing the site to me under the moniker Pistolbitch
but got bored telling men I was also a man and not interested in their greasy advances, so I changed to the less succinct but totally sexier name I have now, I went to the 1st anniversary bash, had lots of fun posting gifs and pictures on what was the friendliest place on the web; that changed as the site got inevitably more popular and I slowly migrated via 4rthur to talk which is one of the least friendly places on the internet.

I think a special memory was when /board (the only one at the time) invaded some guy's personal website (in which he reviewed a washing machine and spoke fondly of his new female lodger) his name was Andrew Washington I think, he even gave an interview.
