Post by: MIB on September 13, 2007, 04:08:07 PM

I thought up mine way back in 1998 when Men In Black Came out and I used MIB ever since.

The guy at the liquor store nicknamed me it. He also calls me booze-bag and jokingly refers to thunderbird as "wino fuel."  >:(

Funny I've always wanted to harpoon them...

I decided on this name after I heard Weird Al Yankovic's parody of "Gangsta's Paradise."

Behold, a murd0c in it's natural habitat. This is EXTREMELY rare, folks, most people decapitated before they even get within 10 yards of the murd0c.HE is without a doubt one of natures MOST hostile creatures. I feel sorry for the poor newb he seems to be munching on now. Murd0c unlike most animals shares leadership with a older, weaker, animal, the RBCP. Apparently it has never occured to the murd0c to simply off him. Join us next time as we stalk the reclusive Reverend Greed, on MUTUAL OF PLA.

"Space Bison" is the default browser ID returned by users of The Proxomitron, an on-the-fly header text-search-and-replace utility. The browser stops banner ads, kills JavaScript, hides identity, blocks referrer ads, and much more. The real browser behind Proxomitron can be anything, and the user can change "Space Bison" to anything they want. It's at http://proxomitron.cjb.net/

You have to learn murd0c's looks Trev. That's not the "I'm gonna sock you in the nose look." That's the "I'm going to swallow your soul and eat your still beating heart" look.

It's amazing how drastically the popular age range for actors has changed. Up until the 80s, you had to be at least 30 - 40 to be an actor; now they are casting as young as possible. Full House even cast babies!

If I had to guess, i-baLL was probably talking about something fairly insane and conspiratorial, or just something he was waaaaay into, so he started talking at russian light speed.  murd0c, for his part, probably (a) didn't understand wtf i-baLL was going off about or (b) was on any combination of legal and/or illegal narcotics or (the most likely option) both.

I still say murd0c will swallow your soul and eat your heart right in front of you while it still beats. The drugs are probably the only thing restraining him. I say, lucky for i-ball that murd0c was high. Or it would be his ghost that isn't posting and not his living body.

I still post on here. Usually under fake and assumed names not wanted in Colorado for the rape and murder of a pine tree. Hey, what can I say? I thought it was legal for Christmas.

Mine came from an abbreviation of my first "solo" project, Matt is a Goat SeX (I'm still not sure about where that came from, though). I needed something clean to put on the CD covers to sell them at school. It's similar enough to my name that I can use it everywhere and have people refer to me in a way that I can recognize (Matt, MattGSX...).

Soap was the first show I can remember to have a sassy black guy, an empowered gay man, strong women and crazy people being correct in their craziness. also it seemed vaguely anti-military and pro-puppets. All this and more on the next episode of benson.

I bought it from Danny Trejo. He came to my house with Roland Gift and Ted DiBiase. They were looking for an orange sweater. I told them that I only had one sweater, and that it was grey. I could be of no more assistance to them at that time.
