Honestly, I come here because I've been here for so goddamn long. I'm not even sure if anyone knows me, but I come back every day simply because I've been doing that for years. I wouldn't join AT now if I was just introduced to it.

I recognize that name.

Well everyone knows Triumph the Insult Comic Dog!

People on ATOT are like drunks- some are friendly drunks and some are angry drunks, but most of us wouldn't act that way sober

It's funny that you compare ATOT to drunks. (you do make good sense though. Being anonimous does free you to say things you would normally hold back) I bet that a large amount of people here are drunk. I've done a decent amount of drunk posting. I'm sure it's pretty common that after getting home from a night of drinking, people will come here to kill some time before sleeping or passing out.

whats great about the AT community (not just OT...but not including hot deals) is such a great family.
it's amazing how people can flame the sh1t out of someone and constantly troll someones threads...its like high school bullies

but then someone gets in trouble and the AT family comes to the rescue.

<inside joke>

I come here because the only way I can talk to HotChic on ATOT is by being a hardass on the outside and a softy on the inside.
