ObiJo August 30, 2001 11:57 PM	What'd you do crab-man? I've only been here a couple of days and Deisel is driving me crazy, so what'd you do to get in his league? Molest a goat or something? Or maybe abduct a princess. These kinds of things always involve princesses.

No princesses were involved. He abducted a goat.

Actually, he originally came on like a hemorrhoid on fire. (See WHATS IT TAKE TO GET TO #1 thread.) After a couple of weeks of derision by the regulars, he calmed down quite a bit. Now, I think he's downright adorable.

Actually, you would also be well advised to look through just about any thread involving ol' crabs back when he first came here.

He's cool nowdays, and I actually like him... but he'll probably never live down his newbie era if I have anything to say about it.

If your initial postings had been of this calibre, no one would have disliked you at all. "If Woody had gone straight to the police, none of this would have ever happened."

Jesus Christ. All those caps made me cack. But, hell, even if you were A LITTLE LOUD back then, someone with the email mc_cracker_ntf@hotmail.com had to have potential.

That thread reminded me of a baseball forum I go on where an older guy types only in caps as well. Someone mentioned to him once that he was shouting, in case he didn't know, to which he replied he had lost vision in one eye and the other was going, so caps made the text easier to read. Which made sense in retrospect because all of his posts were off topic and nearly uniformly about butterball turkeys.

Having now read the "#1" thread, I have to wonder if deisel is simply crabby reverting to his "old" self.

That thread frankly surprised me, because (being relatively new to the site myself) I've only seen the "witty" crabby. His early presence was ... Well, let's just say I'd have hated him too.

Strangely, I saw some startling parallels between Early Crabby and Deisel:

Caps Users of the world unite.
Toilet lickers of the world unite.

Eerie.

Is anyone else reminded of "Flowers for Algernon"?

Crabby may find himself devoted to a whole paragraph in the next FAQ update. You have to wonder if his plan wasn't to gain his fame by acting stupid for a few weeks.

When crabby first showed up, people thought he was ObiJo. Then I think there was some conspiracy theory about him being Dr. Light and possibly Gabe as well. Now he's Deisel. Apparently we're reluctant to believe that he might just be himself.

Yes... the next FAQ update. At the rate Brad and I are going, the next FAQ update may come before the first version of the FAQ gets posted. Which is just as well, because it's silly how outdated the document has become after the recent changes.

PROGRIS RIPORT -- JUNE 26, 2001
I HAV STARTID POSTING COMICS ON THE MESSIGE BORDS. I ASKED PEEPUL IF THEY LICKED MY COMICS BUT ALL THEY DID WUZ MAKE FUN OF ME AND LAFF AT ME. I WANT TO BE FRENDS WITH THEM BUT THEY ONLY LAFF AT ME. MY NAME IS CRABBY JOHNSON AND I AM 12 YEARS OLD AND 2 WEEKS AGO WUZ MY BIRTHDAY.

Progress Report -- July 23, 2001
The operashun didn't hurt. Dr. Boorite says that they did something to a peice of my brain and now I'm smart like the purpil donkey. He showed me how to spell PROGRESS and REPORT and showed me how to turn the CAPS LOCK KEY off so I wasn't shouting any more. ( Dr. Boorite showed me - not the purpil donkey.) Now I can make comics and not shout as much and maybe the people on the message boards will like me now. I'm going to go and make some comics now. Maybe I will make a comic about the purpil donkey since he is my friend and Dr. Boorite says that I can come and and visit him any time I want.

Progress Report - 19 August, 2001
The majority of the people on this message board are complete and utter imbeciles. Most of them wouldn't know humor if it bit them in the ass. When will they realize that sophomoric jokes about sodomy and excessive profanity aren't the cornerstones of comedy? If the awful humor weren't bad enough, a few of them seem to spend their entire, pathetic lives here. This Gabe Billings fellow, for one, needs to crawl out of the hole he's living in and see the sun more than once a month.

But they won't be laughing long. Since last week I've been teaching myself programming and networking. I've nearly completed a vicious little virus that should, with some luck, completely wipe out stripcreator once and for all. All it needs is some finishing touches and it will be ready for insertion. It's cleverly disguised as an image which I'll send to that rube Brad under the guise of new artwork. Even better is the fact that I'll hack into the mail server of DexX's ISP, so it'll look like it came from him.

Ah, sweet revenge! Sleep well, nitwits. Your sojourn here nears its end!

Drexle August 31, 2001 8:23 PM	Jeez, what are you doing DragonXero? Trying to read all the backlog of posts before you wade into the ranks of the regulars again? Or did you just decide to play peek-a-boo with us and run off?
