I met a weirdo on the interweb
Now, I've met lots of nice people on the internet - but it's the weird ones that stick in your mind. Such as the guy who borrowed a film off me in Cambridge and turned out to be so smelly, so hairy, so nervous and, well, so downright needy that I've never bothered getting it back.
Tell us about the strange people you've met on the internet.

by proxy....
I seem to have done this whole thing in reverse... kind of.
I moved up to edinburgh a few years ago, and not knowing any-one in the area (for some reason) decided i'd just join a scottish gaming clan, and meet some locals that way (okay....). To my utter surprise i ended up meeting the nicest bunch of guys, who took me under my wing, went out drinking, went to various LANs... gosh, "what a utopian haven the internet truly is" i thought.
Following the usual bends in the road of life i ended up starting evening classes with one of these internet 'chums', and met (to my mind) the nicest girl on earth, downside is she was visiting the UK to improve her english for her career... she works for a major toyko newspaper. So our relationship is now entirely online, and it's making me twitch, and in a neat reversal i started chatting to a girl in real life, took the relationship to the next stage... the internet, and now it's making ME wierd :(
Still i get to visit tokyo every 2 months, and am moving to hawaii after my phd, god bless the only coutry who's 2 main languages are english/japanese. and praise the motherfucking lord for the internet! :D
