Really, I think he looks like a Kevin.

Jaymc, I dare you to call Thomas Jr and ask if he or his son has a King of Prussia Hooters shirt.

If I had a private office, I would.

i'm still intrigued to hear the answer to my buildings question

― ken c (ken c), Wednesday, 1 February 2006 19:56 (eighteen years ago) link

i cant believe this is still escalating.

― RoxyMuzak© (roxymuzak), Wednesday, 1 February 2006 20:17 (eighteen years ago) link

Oh, it happily jumped the shark once the other pictures appeared. It just keeps getting renewed now because it's a huge moneymaker for the network.

"shadeball"?

Like, he's shady + (corn)(horn)(cheese)ball.

I thought shadeball was some kind of reference to the perineum.

those girls are there to smoke a bowl before going to a party or something. they're at that house because the guy taking the picture has pot, maybe even sells it, and he lives in a house where such things don't matter much. the girl on the left is an athlete, but was certainly more of one a few years back; now, since she spent so much time on sports, most of her old - now popular - friends have moved on and she's left to a racier crowd: a crowd that will drink and smoke in not-so-flashy places. 'hooters' is the younger brother of this guy with pot who was more than eager to come in the room because it's rare he can be around such people, but his hopes have sort of sizzled out at this point -- he's not feeling as suave.

sadly, for both the men, the girls will soon be gone with a shaky excuse.

I really don't think its tommy loftus or tommy anything, based on the fact that Ryan already said he didn't know who the two beer queer was. Also in every picture he appears in everybody else is looking at/acting towards him like it's the first time they've met him. Guessing one of Ryan's friends brought this guy along to the party.

Also, key to Wayne's body language in the first pic is actually clearly: "I want to fire up that SNES so bad but I can't cause it would be weird"
knee grip expresses desire for a controller, not sublimated lust.

― Dan I. (Dan I.), Wednesday, 1 February 2006 21:27 (eighteen years ago) link

oh, and the picture was taken because the older brother was feeling a bit insecure about his company and their impresions of him and needed to do something to look engaged and purposeful... i hate to think that he might also be inadvertently making a joke of his brother -- something he'll realize after the girls leave and regret.

pete stop writing fiction! This is a scientific investigation and a couple of your postulates have already been counterindicated by the evidence.

― Dan I. (Dan I.), Wednesday, 1 February 2006 21:30 (eighteen years ago) link

How literally are we taking this statement, though? Maybe it's like if you did something stupid and then I gestured with my thumb toward you and asked the rest of the room, "Who's this clown?"

Loftus is clearly a guy they know but isn't in their tight-knit group of friends.

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 1 February 2006 21:31 (eighteen years ago) link

i love the shot of him passed out on the floor.

― AaronK (AaronK), Wednesday, 1 February 2006 21:34 (eighteen years ago) link

hardly! bring me this evidence! i'm basing this on many years of high school living with people like these and many hours of analytical thought had in situations like these.

― Peter Densmore (pbnmyj), Wednesday, 1 February 2006 21:35 (eighteen years ago) link

Dude, read the thread.

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 1 February 2006 21:37 (eighteen years ago) link

yes, GOD, I wish had made this thread readers-only when I started it

― RoxyMuzak© (roxymuzak), Wednesday, 1 February 2006 21:41 (eighteen years ago) link

sorry, i got anxious near the beginning. oh stop. oh stop. i'm reading it now.

― Peter Densmore (pbnmyj), Wednesday, 1 February 2006 21:42 (eighteen years ago) link

okay check it out. The guy in the middle of this picture: http://diehliniraq.com/v-web/gallery/albums/Diehls-Party/whatsandythinking.sized.jpg
is andy loftus. The body language by Andy in this picture: http://diehliniraq.com/v-web/gallery/Diehls-Party/andy_loftus
is the only picture in the entire canon in which anybody's body language says anything positive or intimate about Wayne. Also, Andy's somewhat goonie-looking, like Wayne. I'm guessing Andy's a classic man of two worlds; the geeks and the nihilistic assholes (the latter probably via being on the track team with Ryan or something, doesn't matter). He knows Wayne from, like, his job at Burger King or something and he dragged him along to this party.

― Dan I. (Dan I.), Wednesday, 1 February 2006 21:46 (eighteen years ago) link

job at burger king?? duude harsh

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Wednesday, 1 February 2006 21:48 (eighteen years ago) link

Can anybody make out the tattoo on Andy's left forearm?

― kingfish kuribo's shoe (kingfish 2.0), Wednesday, 1 February 2006 21:50 (eighteen years ago) link

The guy in the middle of this picture ... is andy loftus.

No, he's just Andy. We don't know his last name. Loftus is "Wayne's" name.

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 1 February 2006 21:51 (eighteen years ago) link

god, these folks probably refer to Wayne as "Loftus," don't they?

"hey loftus, go get us some more beers"

― kingfish kuribo's shoe (kingfish 2.0), Wednesday, 1 February 2006 21:53 (eighteen years ago) link

They refer to him as Loftus in the filename of the picture, because they've got another Tom there as well.

― Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Wednesday, 1 February 2006 21:56 (eighteen years ago) link

"hey loftus, you can get us past this stage in mario, right? here, do it, willya?"

xpost could they not also refer to him as such at the party?

― kingfish has gene rayburn's mic (kingfish 2.0), Wednesday, 1 February 2006 21:57 (eighteen years ago) link

Can anybody make out the tattoo on Andy's left forearm?

I think it says TIGGLES in Olde English script. Andy's Myspace name is "A TIGGLES." His last name, perhaps? Or a nickname?

Another view, with his bros:

More trivia about Andy: HUGE metal fan, esp Pantera. Girlfriend's name is Ashlee.

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 1 February 2006 21:58 (eighteen years ago) link

I don't think that Andy's last name is Loftus, as the jpg name to this one suggests otherwise.

― Pleasant Plains /// (Pleasant Plains ///), Wednesday, 1 February 2006 21:59 (eighteen years ago) link

Hello, I've missed the whole of this thread. Please tell me what's happened.

― Vintage Latin (dog latin), Wednesday, 1 February 2006 21:59 (eighteen years ago) link

who knew wayne would be the keeper??

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Wednesday, 1 February 2006 21:59 (eighteen years ago) link

wow! hoagies AND steaks!

― kingfish has gene rayburn's mic (kingfish 2.0), Wednesday, 1 February 2006 22:00 (eighteen years ago) link

you guys are right; wayne is Loftus and Andy's not.

Still trying to figure out who the dude sitting next to Laurel on the bed is, but I don't think I can keep opening up flashing Day-Glo Myspace pages at work today...

(xpost) Practically:

Hey Ryan! It's me Mrs. T. I just wanted to wish you a Happy 20th Birthday!!! It's so hard to believe you are that old. It seems like just yesterday that you and Tommy were looking at Mr. T's Playboy magazines and setting fires.....I'm glad I didn't know all the stuff you guys got into, but you did get caught at a lot......Anyhow, hope all is well over there and you're able to celebrate a little. Stay safe and well.
Mrs. Turnbull

wow, this thread was made for jaymc.

uhh xpost

― mark p (Mark P), Wednesday, 1 February 2006 22:35 (eighteen years ago) link

I wish I got paid for this.

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 1 February 2006 22:36 (eighteen years ago) link

you are the dj martian for random people on the internet.

― mark p (Mark P), Wednesday, 1 February 2006 22:38 (eighteen years ago) link

I think Diehl is back from Iraq. At least his myspace page would suggest so.

"readers-only"?

― Miss Misery xox (MissMiseryTX), Wednesday, 1 February 2006 22:38 (eighteen years ago) link

I think you're right, Sam.

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 1 February 2006 22:39 (eighteen years ago) link

I wonder how he's faring?

― M. White (Miguelito), Wednesday, 1 February 2006 22:40 (eighteen years ago) link

jaymc, you know how they say one should love one's work? That when you find what you love to do, it becomes so much less of a "job"? Well, seriously, you should transition your skills into some kind of profitable career.
whoa, holy xpost!!
