Evening, Chatterbox nostalgia: I stumbled upon the 'box looking for a Skyrim review. At the time I was too focused on trying to build a career to post. Last year I realised that was futile and got involved. The best* 'box chat was TimTheMonkey (I think) and dating advice. *worst timthemonkey was entertaining enough, but none more so when his other half (sadly now separated) herselfthemonkey started posting too. There are events on chatterbox that I can barely believe happened. The whole timthemonkey/herselfthemonkey/nuding up but no sex/sleeping with the slutty sister epic, and also danbot (I think) realising he was GWX’s dole officer live on the box. Also StainlessStyle being at an unconnected social event at the same venue as an awards meat-up, and CunningStunt having a girlfriend. Surely these things are so unlikely as to be effectively impossible? The nearest i got got to this sort of infamy was claiming that Mel Gibson was rubbish in Die Hard - I was thinking of Lethal Weapon - and got about 100abusive replies ... deserved of course. I also got into a bicker with Seren that seemed to cause a lot of amusement. |

Oh man, I remember this now! I had forgotten about Simian, but now that you posted the whole exchange I clearly remember the DJ-ing and the lazyboy. Yes, the lazyboy stands out. I didn’t realise you’d been around for that long, tenthenemy. I’m appearances on the box have always been irregular depending upon what time-zone I’m in, so I might just have missed you. Or did you use another ID? |

Wait, a blogger realised they were another's dole officer? Astonishing. Realising that you are chatting shit to someone who might already know you in real life is a chilling thought.

That happened again when two bloggers realised they worked for in the same area...for the same company...in the same building...in the same office...and one was the others boss! An awkward moment. |

Fucking hell. The matrix. I presume they both deleted their accounts, quit their jobs and moved to different towns asap. |

Not just any bloggers dole officer, but GWX, the half-human/half-Nintendo hybrid freak. GWX was the man who made early chatterbox worth reading, he made a barrage of barely readable posts and was constantly arguing with the rest of the box. Take a look at his work: profile.theguardian.com/user/id/2409629?page=1. I would say mid period is best - at that point he had lost any interest in making any sort of sense. |

Man, that is some seriously next level chat. Chat squared. Even just his posts on the last box are magnificent. I'm going to spend tomorrow studying his ouevre. We stand on the shoulders of giants. |

Destry seems to remember these things better than me. Tim turning up and explaining his unique situation was memorable. I hadn’t realised that you could hear people’s jaws dropping over the internet. |

Oh for fuck's sake. Can't you sentimental cunts just go back to discussing children's cartoons again? I mean, that's deeply annoying, but not quite as nauseous.

And I'm not being funny. I mean no disrespect, but you're a cunt. You're a cunt now, and you've always been a cunt. And the only thing that's going to change is that you're going to be an even bigger cunt. Maybe have some more cunt kids. |
