You Meet an Escapist IRL...

[Fappy]

I'd meet all of you and buy each of you guys a pint. Because I'm a charitable chap.

That's a lot of money, though.

You could just put it on someone's tab and leave the bar before anyone else does

 

[shrekfan246]

most of the people from R&P have probably never seen him before.

Probably because they wouldn't stand for the Nathan Fillion gifs!

Spoiler: My joking reaction to those silly R&P people:

I'd like to meet some of them, truth be told. They seem like intelligent people, so I'd really like to find out once and for all why they think it's a good idea to come to a website based mostly around the video game industry to talk singularly about religion and politics. There are a few who stray out into the News Room, Featured Content, or even Gaming Discussion every now and then, but by and large most of them stick with R&P all the time.

Hey fapster, or someone else, can you tell me what I'm known as here on the 'scapist

What you're known as?

like, daystar is known as the most popular, zero is known as the biggest dick imaginable and so on. I've got to be known by some people here!

'That guy who hates Daystar'?

Besides, I wouldn't say he's widely known as the most popular, most of the people from R&P have probably never seen him before.

You know when I get back from Spain going to challenge daystar to a competition of skill. Then we shall see who is the false hero, or who is the jealous hopeful!

I can't really talk, I mostly stick to Off-Topic. R&P used to be part of Off-Topic so I suppose a lot of them started here and drifted into R&P. There're people who post almost exclusively in Forum Games or User Groups. I think after a while users will drift into the section they enjoy the most and stick to it.

Oh yeah, I'm mostly in Off-Topic, Gaming, a User Group, with occasional excursions to Forum Games, but I just don't understand the enjoyment they can get out of the 'heated debates' they have in R&P.

[sub]But then, I don't think that internet forums should be "super srs bsns" anyway, so.[/sub]

 

[BOOM headshot65]

Seekster and Farson135, hands down. Its no coincidence they both come from Texas and that is my 2nd favorite state. (maybe it is coincidence. Whatever.)

What kind of competition? Is betting allowed?

Some people just really enjoy a good long debate/fight online and in real life. I've never really stuck through an entire R&P thread but I imagine they're less inclined to descend into "fuck you and everything you love" insults than similar discussions in Off-Topic.

A gaming tournament, three games, one picked by me, one picked by him and one picks by you lot. No betting of anything but limbs.

 

[game-lover]

I dunno.

It'd be anyone that's probably made me laugh.

Daystar, Hazy... Brovengers... the rest of those guys who were their enemies or competition.

[sub][sub]Also ReadyAmyFire because she's kinda hot[/sub][/sub]

Now this is my kinda thread right here, more posts like this please.

I think @Matthew94 is coming to my university next year, so could be a chance I'll bump into him at some stage.

Oh god! She heard what I said! Must run and hide. *Runs and hides*

I wouldn't [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/528.354162-A-personal-plea-from-a-Chrstian-gamer#14063691] be [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/528.383105-Israel-Is-a-Sham] so [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/528.383482-Lying-and-Idiocy-in-R-P#15172887] sure [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/528.383107-Escapists-are-stereotypical-liberals?page=1] about [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/528.383000-Feminists-please-learn-what-sexism-is-and-how-it-applies] that [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/528.382559-Obama-If-Youve-got-a-business-you-didnt-build-that?page=1].

Okay, maybe those aren't directly applicable to exactly what you said (i.e., those are topics that typically probably wouldn't be discussed in Off-Topic and most of the posts are more eloquent than "fuck you and everything you love"), but I still think it's a fairly apt showing.

Most of those are fairly recent R&P threads, too; apart from the first one (which was linked in a different, more recent thread) all of those were on the first two pages.

Whoa, that's completely off-topic now. Sorry, Fappy. I'd like to reiterate my interest in meeting some of those people from R&P just so I can figure out how they get so much enjoyment out of debating over the internet.

Can I be the super OP one that gets conveniently displaced during big fights so I don't end it in one punch?

I would say yes, but that little stunt in the OP has cost you that privilege.

You can be Hawkeye.

Nobody likes Hawkeye.

I like Hawkeye!

Man, I want to meet all the Brovengers. We would have the most absurd party in the history of parties, and after that I have no idea what we would do. As long as I got to keep all my organs, clothes, and clean criminal record, I am up for whatever shenanigans we can conceive of.

Don't worry Carb. I was going to harvest Hazy's kidneys, not yours.

I'm good at removing kidneys! Need help?

Yeah sure! Meet me out back, I'll need help carrying the packs of ice to the bathtub!

Sure thing!
We're going to need a lot of sterilization to keep the kidney from getting contaminated, do you have a source for that? I might be able to order some stuff from Sigma-Aldritch.

Can't we just pour vodka or some shit on it? I take it this ain't your first rodeo?

I have removed several kidneys, but none this size. It should be similar enough to a squirrel, right?

Oh yeah sure that sounds like a good idea I... wait what?

Don't worry! We'll only take one, I'm really good at dissection, I'll probably be just as good at vivisection!

I won't be able to get normal anesthetic though, how do you feel about chloroform? We'll buy you ice cream afterwards, so it's not all bad!

Nothing will go wrong! Unless he spontaneously combusts, or the scalpel slips.

What sort of person do you think I am?! You better throw some Tequila in with that chloroform or no deal!

You can have all the tequila and ice cream you want! It's an organ harvesting party! We'll put a party hat on you so you can partake in the festivities even while unconscious!

Can I get a party horn? I want a party horn... my laboured, gasping breaths will set it off

 

[ToastiestZombie]

I have no idea what is going on right now... and I love I! Also, any early suggestions on games I could battle with daystar in? I am doing this, the site needs some healthy competition!

Don't forget that we need inappropriately happy music for this! Can't have a party without that!
