This is hilarious. God I miss how passive aggressive you could get with pictures with embedded links.

“Oh. Heyyyy level 4 out of 8 friend.”

What are we looking at here?

MySpace had a top 8 friends on everyone's page

And someone sets a copy of the list as an auto-signature? Or keep it in their clipboard??

[–] rookie 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

this is someone manually doing it themselves as a joke to simulate the leaderboard on your myspace page.

I know, there is no integration between the two platforms. But why set an autosignature or keep the list in clipboard? Both is terribly inconvenient for such a stupid gig.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Automatically would be a very sophisticated integration for 2007

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Which is why I presume it was done manually

It’s not even 8:30 AM and the internet has already made me feel old. Brb gotta go take my medication for my back pain and queue up some techno on WinAmp.

Look at this guy whipping the llama's ass first thing in the morning.

And I still never saw the way the orange slayed the rake!

Yeah yeah, call me when IRC and BBS.

I'm disappointed I missed out on that but I did telnet into a bunch of stuff back in the day. It just wasn't much of a thing anymore.

I did enjoy connecting directly with my buddy over a landline to play Command and Conquer though, that's pretty old school.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

Hell yeah lol, I was just kidding btw not actually trying to be rude!

[–] [email protected] 20 points 10 months ago

God, that seems so utterly fucked lmao holy shit

[–] Thteven 23 points 10 months ago

My top 8 was always shit like Grimlock, Optimus Prime, etc. specifically to avoid this sort of thing.

If it's not a race for a royal pussy and becoming a king somewhere they can fuck right off.

Come on, this 8-friend scheme is really like the fairy tales of princes coming to the king to ask his daughter's hand.
