Hey guys

I haven't been here for a while. What's happening (if anything)? Me? I got married and purchased an apartment. The winters are still cold in Finland and I still like metal and progressive rock.

It's really me! I can tell you all about the rm2k3 manifesto, Rast, Foget Factory or wishmoo if you want. Or about that time when we were supposed to meet in London but you were too busy doing goth stuff so that we didn't.

I'm a part of the rat race now, working for an organization that develops Finland's business competence by training and consulting. Other than that I've recently picked up board games as a hobby, you can check out my account at BoardGameGeek (DeePee there too). Great stuff.

Drama teacher eh? Sounds like something you'd end up doing. And you're still doing CAPS for added EMPHASIS! I love it.

Here's how being married looks.

Hahaha it is you! Amazing man, I've been wondering WHAT HAPPEN for years!

You're a BUSINESSMAN now? Not a CRAZY METAL ROCKER circa 'GOD OF CHEESE'?!

Your wife looks a LOT HAPPIER in that photo than you, you look satisfied but like thoughtful! Amazing photo though, did you get married by Finland's famous SEA OF ICE or was it somewhere else? XD

Also yes, I didn't develop like any skills at all except for A) attention seeking, B) Lecturing people about stuff I find interesting, C) forcing young people to perform skits and plays for my own amusement, so DRAMA TEACHER works out well XD!!

PS: BOARD GAMES CARCASSONNE! I got that recently and my other half and I spent ages trying to work out how to play it. ROADS and shit. I lost pretty badly, but neither of us knew that until the close of the game XD!!!

It's great to hear from you! Also: We moved IRC server to irc.esper.net and apparently called SALTW room now!!

Hey hey hey

Hi DP.

Did you used to be a fat black metal goth? There's a classic GW picture of an older member who was and I'm sure their name was Dark something.

EDIT: Actually wait no that was Death Jester. He drew cartoon child porn also.

You liked prog metal, I do remember that.

Working on ATARIsick VII by now? I still have the original trilogy stashed away and I listen to it occasionally.

Also Afura yes that was Death Jester. I was never fat and although I did and still do listen to black metal I never looked the part.

oi terve taas. Lot of things are different now but i guess we're on a standstill until new Dada does a new frontpage (:^B "outsourcing") and member's aren't busy with their respective lives etc. What does your job entail actually? and boardgames rules, it's the best time to spend quality social time with close friends.

If you think you're fat, you probably are. Don't ask.

Oh man, another blast from the past.

It's kind of weird, but all these oldies popping in makes me acutely aware of just how little I actually know about the people I spent a fair chunk of my life with so long ago. Like, maybe it's just the fog of time clouding my memories, but honestly I hardly know anything about DP or Faust or Bart or anyone. It makes me question how close I actually was with my "e-buddies" back then, or whether it was all a facade of validation-seeking and a desire to fit in.
