Yes, I'm back. I've been gone for awhile because of computer troubles. However on the plus side I finally figured out what was wrong. The CPU fan wasn't spinning. Well I'm glad to be back and hope somebody here remembers me.
Who are you?
Seriously though, I'm a relatively new guy here, so it's nice to meet you!
If I claim to not remember you, would you believe me?
Yes. Yes I would. Why, do you not remember me? I may go commit suicide because of that.
Jerk.
Once upon a time in 2003, when I worked in an office the size of a large broom cupboard, I heard a sound like workmen drilling the road. Because we were on the 4th floor, it would have to be fairly nearby so I went to the window and looked down to see if I could spot them.
I couldn't see anything, so I went back to my desk. A few minutes later the network went down hard. The sound I'd heard was the last gasp of the main server's power supply fan.
We stripped the thing down, I cleaned the fan out and even re-lubricated it but the CPU was sufficiently toasted that we couldn't even boot the Advanced Server 2000 CD without it bluescreening.
Now I always check the fans out of sheer paranoia.
No belief required. It can be verified.

I propose dissection! For science!
Are you jerking my chain, Jubblies?

Does this mean that we can't dissect Mowser?
Mebe. I might like it though.
As long as it's only chains getting jerked, I think we're all fine with it. I mean, jerking nose hairs would just be cruel.
I'd think that Jerking chicken would be good too. Them Jamaicans really know how to prepare a meal.
I'm so glad I'm memorable.
What memory? Is it for sale? can I have some?
Fiddy bucks.
i recognise you, but was under the impression you had a different name
... like what? Pacman? ;-]

What is this Pacman you refer to, Boxy? Is he some kind of old Golden Age superhero? (joke)
Nah. He's the one who spawned all the clubbers.
You know, the ones who run around in darkened rooms popping pills and listening to loud music...

Oh god, you're right! I'll never be able to look at Pacman the same way ever again! So what is it when the ghosts change color? And maybe now we know why he spent a few games dressed as the Missis... he was hiding from some dealers he owed money too!
Did the two of us just destroy cherished childhood memories that some of the forum goers have of one of the best arcade games to exist?
packman- he will eat your SOULS!

Ah, right, I'd forgotten that one. Why can't they update more often? (Aside from an issue of quality versus quantity)
Don't forget this one. (http://www.vgcats.com/comics/?strip_id=114) (Also a bit nsfw.. that is the title of it afterall)

Seriously, glad to see somebody recognizes me.

I did recognise you, as a poster from way back. I thought I was pretty obvious about that...
Well.... yeah.... awkward huh?
I remember your avatar, it is my visual memory I tell you!
or pie, pie is always good.
I remember you way back, Was you the kid that came to my house most the time?
Uh.... maybe?
Update: I just realized that I wasn't around for my birthday. T.T That makes me so sad. Especiallye I was in Vegas, although it's not true that there's nothing to do there but gamble. I'm 16 and I found myself plenty entertained without having to gamble. I was there for a whole week and I ran out of things to do before I had to leave.
