Wasn't there someone on ILM who was half deaf with tinnitus? (runs away)

― StanM (StanM), Tuesday, 31 January 2006 19:03 (eighteen years ago) link

jaymc, I had multiple textbooks for most of my upper level classes. :D :D

Anyway, what is the black box between the grey thing (TV) and the stack of books?

― A BOLD QUAHOG (ex machina), Tuesday, 31 January 2006 19:05 (eighteen years ago) link

I think there's two mini-speakers there.

Sounds good, Ally.

On another note, a friend of mine just bought a house and the downstairs bathroom was PLASTERED - floor to ceiling, all four walls - with pictures the former owner's son stole from the Fotomat where he used to work. Creepy creepy.

Roxy, was this linked from a page on GIS?

Weed is, without a doubt, the only thing i can think of that would have made this situation possible.

― deej.. (deej..), Tuesday, 31 January 2006 19:07 (eighteen years ago) link

it's got to be either a shared apartment or a dorm - at my school some of the upperclasmen dorms looked just like this: crappy furniture, shitty brown insitutional rug...

and his room is completely packed with shit - so it's some sort of shared living situation.

i bet he's a mechanical or electrical engineering student.

Looks like two tiny speakers. Dude's probably got a subwoofer somewhere too.

I think Roxy is holding out on us...

what is GIS?

you don't need coats everywhere in the US, even during winter.

― Miss Misery xox (MissMiseryTX), Tuesday, 31 January 2006 19:07 (eighteen years ago) link

some of the books have protective covers made of brown paper bags on them.

also, just because they're not fat doesnt mean they arent tough, obv.

It might be suite living... at RIT they have these sort of off campus university condo type places that 4 people live in.....

Guy taking the picture = friend of widelegs from hometown, invites her and her roomate over for some beers, oh, this is my roomate Wayne.

― Dave will do (dave225.3), Tuesday, 31 January 2006 19:09 (eighteen years ago) link

On second thought, Wayne looks like this might not be his crib. Something about him tells me HE's here for the party, too. Occupant took picture.

― Big Loud Mountain Ape (Big Loud Mountain Ape), Tuesday, 31 January 2006 19:09 (eighteen years ago) link

those all look like first year tech textbooks. they're all underage, but he has a beer connection, and the girls have gone there to pregame.

― AaronK (AaronK), Tuesday, 31 January 2006 19:10 (eighteen years ago) link

come on, there's not way that shit isnt his.

PP3, it is nighttime? Maybe early fall?

I'll go with that. Indian Summer, even.

― Pleasant Plains /// (Pleasant Plains ///), Tuesday, 31 January 2006 19:11 (eighteen years ago) link

Dave, I think you're summation is the right one. Wayne has NO clue how to act, and plops down on the bed, trapping the chix in the corner, but not saying a word - his Hooters shirt says all it needs to.

― Big Loud Mountain Ape (Big Loud Mountain Ape), Tuesday, 31 January 2006 19:11 (eighteen years ago) link

Yeah, hmmm: if it was Wayne's bed, would he be sitting where he's sitting? Wouldn't he sit more toward the head of the bed and let the guests sit toward the foot? I don't know why I think this, except there's sort of a protective instinct that would dictate that positioning.

― jaymc (jaymc), Tuesday, 31 January 2006 19:12 (eighteen years ago) link

air conditioner + curtains = probably not dorm? i only know one guy who has curtains in his dorm room, and his room is impeccably neat and has opera & museum posters on the walls...i don't think that the nintendo/family guy type room is going to have curtains.

― Maria (Maria), Tuesday, 31 January 2006 19:13 (eighteen years ago) link

If it wasn't his place, he wouldn't be sitting on the bed with the girls like that.... that position is reserved for the lord of the castle and there's no way he would usurp that from his bro for a single picture.

― Pashmina (Pashmina), Tuesday, 31 January 2006 19:13 (eighteen years ago) link

Yeah, it looks like, the way things are set up, the chix arrived first and were moved over when Wayne showed.

They clearly have met either Wayne or the picture-taker, or both, before. They do not appear ill-at-ease, although Orange Girl looks like she might have to pee.

― Big Loud Mountain Ape (Big Loud Mountain Ape), Tuesday, 31 January 2006 19:14 (eighteen years ago) link

it doesnt matter anyway, even if it's NOT wayne's room, he spends tons of time in it smokin and playing GTA.

― AaronK (AaronK), Tuesday, 31 January 2006 19:14 (eighteen years ago) link

The Hooters in King of Prussia, PA. Anyone near there want to go ask if they recognize Wayne?

― StanM (StanM), Tuesday, 31 January 2006 19:14 (eighteen years ago) link

the blinds could have already been there - many people leave them when they move.

They were going to smoke!!!! YES!!!

the girl on the left is Kelly. The one on the right looks more like a Krissy.

― AaronK (AaronK), Tuesday, 31 January 2006 19:16 (eighteen years ago) link

I am missing why this new string of pictures got intro'd. Can someone bring me up to speed?

― Big Loud Mountain Ape (Big Loud Mountain Ape), Tuesday, 31 January 2006 19:17 (eighteen years ago) link

Kacey or Jenni, I think

― jocelyn (Jocelyn), Tuesday, 31 January 2006 19:17 (eighteen years ago) link

i wonder if they have already smoked?

Are you sure it was found just through a GIS, Roxy?

― Pleasant Plains /// (Pleasant Plains ///), Tuesday, 31 January 2006 19:18 (eighteen years ago) link

So essentially this entire thread summarizes a teen movie circa 1998. Were Smashmouth on the soundtrack?

Ha ha ha Ned.

yes, if it was his place why would he have the whole twenty pack so close at hand. wouldn't it be in a fridge?

I think this whole photo was staged in order to generate massive messageboard discussion.

not necessarily. plenty of guys like this just leave it out wherever they're drinking. it's fucking miller lite...

dude definitely rocks the sublime.

I found Halfdeaf's photo archive too. He looks kinda like the kid in the pic, maybe it's his son?

IRC was created by Jarkko Oikarinen (nickname "WiZ") in late August 1988 to replace a program called MUT (MultiUser talk) on a BBS called OuluBox in Finland. Oikarinen found inspiration in Bitnet Relay Chat which operated on the Bitnet network.
