TAN: Calling all the ol' ones

Okay, okay, next week in the UK is the last episode of Friends and I've been thinking about all you guys. I must be getting a lil sentimental in my old age (23, nearly 24!) but I just wanted to know how many of the old veterans are left on here. Those I've seen by a quick scan of the group include Paul H, the legend that is Tennant and Cookie Dude anybody else still her lurking? Claire (who must be happy if what I've heard about the finale are true)? Larissa? Don? Tina? Denise? . . .gonna be in serious grief for not mentioning anybody. Sandra? . . .okay those who I forgot, kill me now. Are the A.T.F awards still going?

It'd be nice if we all could recount some memories of the group, I'll start. This group was one of the first things I did online when I got the internet in around 1996/97 time. . . .I was sooo young back then. I can remember the train wreck of the first awards (and the twenty people who voted for the), the long threads Lee and Don used to have, the whole incident with Claire and Kenneth, my ego fuelled moments of stupidity and great regret, MNL (I just read that thread from last year where someone thought he didn't exist!) & the sock, Larissa and Arizona (greatest worse first date of all time!).

To those of you lot who are still here thank you for the memories. *bows* I wish your memories of me could have been more pleasant.

heh, you remember me? I'm afraid I'm not exactly sure who you are. You changed screen names didn't you? Although hang on a moment, I very vaguely recall someone being named "Coca-Cola something" around here ;)

She's not been seen around here since early S9 :(

We gave that up since there were only like 5 people on this newsgroup at the time

cookie dude!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lol, I'm glad I'm not that infamous.

The writers finally messed Ross up too much? I kinda thought she'd be here till the end. :(

How many are they now? Ladies and Gentlemen we proudly present the 2004 alt.tv.friends awards, start sending your nominations in now for Funiest Poster, Off-topic poster and Best ATF Poster! . . . . wasn't there more categories?

Lol, like that.

Jonathan Always CocaCola

I remember the 'wild' names, and the tons of amusing OT posts from Ouroboros.

Funnily enough, you *do* sound a lot older in this thread. :P

Lol, thanks! :)

The daft thing is that when I was a newbie, people thought I was you...

Alas, no.

In that case, you heard wrong. See my review "Friends S10-18 - egg timer", which will be republished (and revised) on Friday, without spoiler space.

Alas no, I wanted someone else to win for a change.

At least you had a chance to spar with Lee and Don, I'm so envious.

Kenneth?

I know - it was so heart-warming the way that several oldbies (including Larissa) emerged from lurkerdom to back me up; thanks again to you guys.

Best thread ever!

Better than sitting on your butt, though. :)

Don't worry about it Jonathan - at least you're the only fan who ever got his nickname onto the Maganadoodle board. ;)

Tennant

Lol, well I guess . . .just wondering if that's a complement.

Big up da Tennant massive!

Err yeah I'm sorry about that, power tends to corrupt. I think it was the acorn link more than anything (my RiscPc is still running up in my room). I wonder how many people tried to work out an anagram of your name.

I thought they were gone I just kinda expected you to go round them up for some final hurrah. :)

Hmmm will finally see The Last One this friday (stupid channel 4 wanting to but Big Brother on its coat tails to try and get it ratings this year, I was quite happy watching it on thursday night).

Lot of alases in this post.

Spar? I merely got a chance bask in their awe.

He Who Will Not Be Mentioned

I just couldn't get the way he was going on about how Michael Curtis could have just turned up to meet somebody he didn't know was coming if he wasn't MNL. I did come close to meeting him. I found it kinda interesting that everybody seemed reluctant to mention my name. I'm sorry I missed it.

Nah it's just a sock.

It was educational, taught me loads of things about life and love. It also taught me not to go Arizona lol.

Haven't you seen Larissa's photos, besides it's all bittersweet and I'm much better without the ego. ;)

In the house?

I'm typing this on one right now.

Eek!

Sozza.

E4 did show 1018 on Thursday, then?

And also aliases and lasses but no lassoes.

Claire once said that Lee & would have fought.

Eep.

Funnily enough, the person concerned has just turned up in my 1018 review thread, first time he has shown his face around here since.

IIRC, he doesn't believe that you exist either. :)

:)

LOL

Yes I have, but you did it on the show.

As are we all.

Tennant

In my day this group only existed on parchments carried by pigeons, times
were much harder back then. In fact I remember when we . . . . . . . .

Lol, *has an image of Tennant being down with homies* I think the correct way to prounce that my good chap would be, "In da house."

Oooo, so are you still running Risc Os 3.7 or have you upgraded to 4, I hear there's even a 5 with the new machines. I'm quite amused by the XDA they make me use for work (which is crap as a phone) runs on the Strong ARM processor too.

A T N E T N N hmmm, too many n's and not enough vowels.

Night is still young, saddle up and ride cowboy!

What did I hear wrong?

Nope, stupid Big Bother, however they did show the finale straight after Ch 4 on Friday night. That coupled with E4 + 1 meant I had three showings of the finale handly avoiding having to watch Big Brother, phew. I'm gonna miss Friends. :( The chick and the duck died!?!?

Lol, Alias - at least the bow-chic-a-wow-wow spy series is back next season, meep-see-tv.

Hmm, if you're referring to you then possibly, but fighting without ill intent.

Just saw that, hmm maybe he's MNL

I don't, I'm just a figment of all your imaginations from smoking and taking too much of the wacky stuff. I didn't see the bit about him nothinking I existed, why did he think that?

The end.

According to her dad, they're running out of water anyway.

I did? You think I would have remembered that, was she a looker or maybe just a hooker?

Ego-a-go-go
