Hi orvetti,
I first got interested in YT last spring. More for the phenomenon than the actual content. I'm really into new media, art forms, new ways to connect people... I find it really intriguing and amazing how the whole internet community is building up and recreating constantly. Anyway, digging into YT, I couldn't miss LG15. It became big really rapidly. From the beginning I thought it was staged and I would admire the talent of the people behind that. I still don't know exactly how they knew they would make it. When you watch the first videos, they are quite simple, v-blog and nothing more but there is definitely something catching...and I don't really know what. But anyway, to make a long story short, before I knew it I was hooked and ended up on this board.

I got here by making a wrong left a few miles back and have been lost since...
I've posted my story before, but I had heard of LG15 in passing, just before the big news broke. Wasn't really interested, then I heard it might be this type of game called an ARG. I was mildly interested, but promptly forgot about it. Then the big news broke, and because I wasn't hugely interested (still hadn't watched a video), I thought "Big deal." Then, I was in a used bookstore browsing the computer section, and ran across a book on ARGs and bought it. I think Cassie planted it there. The next day, the first CiW hit, and I was hooked.

Random party thread Archive (Part 1)
Since we typically turn the reasonably focused threads in this board off into random chatter, I thought we should have one thread where we can all just post back and forth and leave the other threads a little more based on what they're supposed to include.
So let's start here. Hi everyone!

OK, i have made a grand total of one post on this forum in my life, so i almost definately don't qualify for this thread. but seeing as i love religion so deeply, i thought i'd fukc with the system a little .
Anyway, my parents are not really religious, but in the country town i grew up they had this awsome sunday school, it was christian but i don't know the denomination, and they always had cordial and pink icing biscuts after. also you won prizes if you knew stuff. anyway that made me fiercly religious and i could quote huge segments of bible by around the age of ten (hey, i like prizes). then i got changed into an anglican school were they made religion boring and expected you to believe it. due to a slight *cough* authority problem, i became fiercly un-religious.
Sixish years later i got kicked out of that school and changed to a little local fransican school. the fransiscans are really nice people and they actually act out their beliefs, which removed a bit of my disillusionment with mainstream religion. i love how they find beauty in nature and simplicity, and by the time i finished school i was vaguely agnostic.
Then i went to uni and studied genetics, and now i am an athiest. i would love to be religious, but i just don't have the personal capacity to believe. i think religion is simultaniously the most beautiful and ugliest human creation ever. i really like the baha'i faith, and if i suddenly develop the capacity for religion, that'd be the one for me.
heh ok that was fun.
also probably the words which come out of my mouth most often are... religion, romance and rum are the three biggest killers of all time. fo' shizzle.
love eliza

To provide Broken Kid with material for his latest book, a challenging new interpretation of David Bohm's legacy and its relevance to Internet-based problem solving. BK's magnum opus is tentatively entitled Random Party Threads and the Implicate Order: Hidden Variables and Ontological Holism in the Lonelygirl15 Community. It's a nonfictional exploration of ideas he introduced in his bestselling (in Japan) novel, Duct Tape Bondage Turtle Hologram.wintermute wrote:Now why would we wanna do a thing like that?

Actually, I was working on a screenplay for the well-known children's book Everybody Poops. But gosh, you make me look smrt! I like how you fit in the turtle reference!Sheikh Gomelez wrote:To provide Broken Kid with material for his latest book, a challenging new interpretation of David Bohm's legacy and its relevance to Internet-based problem solving.
