AnandTalk: The Gossip Gazette!

The sun is rising on a typical day in Offtopicana, a suburb of the busy metropolis AnandTown. Mayor Russ is chain-smoking (using real chains!) while preparing for his impeachment hearing, after having been accused of understanding Moonbeam.

Red Dawn is spending a leisurely hour at the spa, enjoying an esteem bath while having his fangs sharpened and his vitriol tank refilled, unaware that his arch-enemy Texmaster is plotting to destroy him by boring him to death.

In the afternoon, sexy shenanigans reach a crescendo (what is that 'fapping' sound???) as Perknose, happykitten, baffled2, hzl_eyed_grl, and the late Thunderbooty engage in a public flirting exhibition, only to be upstaged by the last-minute entry of Jerboy, whose arrival causes the audience to stampede for the exits, injuring many, including Jerboy himself. He will be OK as soon as his swollen ego goes down (unlikely.)

Gossip abounds regarding eakers' new baby. Rumors say that the child may have been fathered by everybody. However, the pink-haired, nekkid infant bears a distinct resemblance to Adul (who, in a startling revelation, may not be a woman after all.) There is shocking news that Paulson and Hubbs were switched at birth; the always diplomatic and wise Harvey suggests that the situation can be remedied by cutting them in half, then reassembling the pieces and changing their usernames to Haulson and Pubbs.

The AnandTech Moderators decide to crack down on posts that promote copyright violation, drug use, sexual themes, and personal attacks, and the subsequent drastic downsizing of the forums results in massive moderatorial layoffs. The one remaining Mod is required to be The Fun Mod, The Mean Mod, and The Watchful Mod all at once. The stress causes him to fall into modness, and the poor fellow is carted off to the modhouse, shrieking "Ban 'em into the Stone Age!"

The sun is setting now in Offtopicana, and the cool evening is punctuated by intermittent cries of "pics!" Occasionally you can hear a nonexistent Fusetalk Forum bug droning amid the steady buzz of nefs nattering about religion, LOTR, cars, politics, Bruce Lee vs Coke, and butter. As we settle in for the night, we hear the comforting sound of threads being locked, to keep the trolls out. All is well in AnandTown, where the deals are hot, the dudes are cool, and the women are above average (all eight of them.) Good night. Sleep tight. Don't let the Best Buy bite.

  • A tip of the Wombat Hat to the inimitable Russ, whose wonderful thread As The ATOT Turns got my creative juices flowing so copiously that I may need to buy some creative Depends.

Wombat, since you have some pull with Russ, do you think you could get him to explain what I mean................... to me?

Red fills his vitriol tank, with what, high testy gas? 😀

Tex plotting to destroy him by boring him to death. Ahhahaha.

So fun and so funny, thanks!

 
I may need to buy some creative Depends.

Hey WW, I may need some of those, too. This made me laugh so hard that I peed my pants! 😀

Keep em coming, OK? 🙂

Yet, the story does not end here, stranger. You have now heard about Offtopicana and its larger, wealthier neighbor AnandTown without undestanding what great evils must be overcome for this small community to prosper and grow.

There is no stability is a polis: dark forces conspire to overthrow and destroy the years of neffing contributing to its survival, and consequently to the survival of all mankind who depends on Offtopicana to shine. It thus begins.

On not quite a cold day but certainly a day bereft of sun, gopunk, linuxboy and hammer09, walking amicably and discussing the pending crucifiction of the religious martyr Elledan, decide to succede from Offtopicana and overthrow the just and wise boss AnandLalShimpi in order to form the Commonwealth of Anandtechia. Promising beer, games, and imported women, they quickly gain a sizable following among the fap-tastic n00bs.

Russ has been impeached and the ensuing vying for power by baffled2 and her archnemesis Ameesh provides the Troika perfect anarchical ground for a revolution. With cries of socialist communism, the newly established Party silences opposition with floods of drugs, prostitution and videogames. Jerboy has been given a special place, after the application of an icepack to his ego, and anyoone who opposes the Party is subject to his whining. Day and night, deep from the dungeons, cries of "I...have...zits..." are heard, bringing terror to children and adults alike.

Having been understood, Moonbeam realizes his lifelong calling of running a modhouse. He bedazzles previous owners with 'shrooms and assumes control. Alas, the mod cannot come to health since understanding Moonbeam happens as rarely as mermaid are found in the Sea of Anand. With no enforcements, or government, our Troika builds up armies of horny youth, ready to die for causes of liberty, justice, happiness, and obedience to the Party. In a Blonde Moment, baffled2 misses the power change while Ameesh is busy defending Microsoft against the Linux special interest groups.

A grave day indeed in the history of Offtopicanians.

The nights no longer are filled with comforting sounds of threads locked, of chatter about religion or politics. Instead, having been appointed chief Relationship Expert, HotChic deals out consistently conservative advice to problems as diverse as "Should I ask her out" to "My gf/bf doesn't understand me".

Having foreseen this development and perhaps with an advance message of forthcoming events, Zenmervolt rides out into the sunset in his reconditioned '58 chevy to live with his sweetheart where meandring plains roll into lonely trees.

Not all is well in the Party, however. linuxboy demands absolute obedience and forms a brief dallience with gopunk. Together, they slay hammer09 while keeping the unaware public entertrained with all Skoorb, all the time. Naturally, they distrust each other, both being of similar ilk and so the games begin. Immediately, [/b]linuxboy[/b], amasses the best brains, including a long forgotten scientist, TotalReflectedPower and his new mistress, Isla and begins construction of a Secret Weapon to once and for all assume control of Anandtechia and lay siege to the city of AnandTown. All is quiet during the day as a thick fog rolls gently and surrounds the freshly constructed Party headquarters in Zabiatso neighborhood.

But I'm getting ahead of myself. Let us not forget the elderly soldiers, Athanasius, JohnnyReb, theBestMax, Ornery, RossMan, ex-mayor Russ (who has assumed the name "Rexbo"), and RedDawn (whose esteem having been warmed, now admires his newly sharpened fangs in a mirror). Quickly, linuxboy sets to ally himself with the new faction by engaging Athanasius and JohnnyReb in argument about the nature of God's manifestation during pre-neolithic protohumans, by giving Russ a tax-deductible donation of hardware and cookies, by approving RossMan's credit cards and by giving RedDawn free reign over the roads in his new Harley AND a new mirror so he can see admire himself some more. Except gopunk has also been busy.

He digs into linuxboy's past to discover that they are long-lost twins, having been separated at birth by an untimely earthquake. Eakers, having been appointed cabinet head, advises to be nice to everyone and try to have a reconciliation (she also imports Nutella and abolishes studying). As linuxboy sits and laughs from his surveilance room, he realizes he should write a long-winded and obfustated post to the people explaining the current developments to paint himself in the best picture. With the people supporting him, and with 0sully and gopunk fighting for eakers in an unsuspected twist, there is nothing that can stop him.

Just in time, the Super Weapon is completed and Isla joins Optimus and Elita1 to move to Honduras and start an orphanage.

As all good tyrants, linuxboy seems to the populace to be benevolent and righteous. His words say nothing and his fellow obscurantists-at-arms, Moonbeam, skylark, and EngineNr9 lament at their lack of foresight in misjudging the situation. However, they care too much about the modhouse to do anything. The DenMother, WombatWoman is nowhere to be found.

linuxboy becomes mad with success. Wild orgies, massive pr0n downloads for the troops, and videogames give a huge sense of invulnerability. With no one to oppose him, he laughs at victory as he lays seige to AnandTown. Strutting to meet with Anand and his High Command, he demans unconditional surrended due to declining ad revenue, heavy traffic in Offtopicania and general busyness with Anand's new venture: college. The Boss refuses and takes countermeasures.

In the cold winter that followed, linuxboy's invulnerability and strength as a leader wanes as his ill-prepared troops long to be in the comfort of their chairs to nef once more. Lovers are remembered and parents cherished. Many a n00b grow up during those rough times and find God, guided by the hip-hop rhythms of Paulson and the constant advocation of Christianity by the Pastors Riprorin and PastorDon.

A choice is made that cold December by a madman to use the Super Weapon. It was a solitary decisions, driven by hatred and an inability to deal with pain. Driven by solitude and insubordination, linuxboy makes an ultimatum to Anand to surrender or die. The loud cry of "WE WILL NEVER YIELD TO TYRANNY. LONG LIVE ANANDTOWN" rattles the bones of many soldiers. Morale is low and a retreat proves necessary.

What linuxboy didn't count on was the return and might of WombatWoman


I'll let somebody else finish the story. 🙂. There are so many places you can take it now. Have fun !

Cheers ! 🙂
