The Man So Nice They Named Him Twice Posts: 209 Joined: 4 Jan 2008 | When I was 14, I used to mountain bike around this lake near my house with a bunch of friends. We'd go at least 2-3 times a week during the summer. On one of these trips we came into a clearing and almost ran over TWO WOMEN, almost totally naked, TOTALLY going at it. They saw us and freaked, we ran, and we've been talking about it ever since..... "Hey, remember when we were biking around Folsom and we..." |
Paperboy Posts: 41 Joined: 27 Feb 2008 | Haha... That sounds awesome. I'll pay that, that is a pretty sweet moment. Eating a $50 steak that weighted over a Kilo under 20 mins, And then the chef telling me because of what I did, I got it free, my name on the wall and a free T-shirt. Pretty sweet for a guy that weighs only 65k |

That doesn't happen often enough. |
Copy Clerk Posts: 99 Joined: 2 Apr 2008 | I was on my way home from a party when from NOWHERE a guy punches me in the face. I turn around and the assailant looks SCARED SHITLESS and throws money at me 'cause he thought I was someone else. The next day I bought Bioshock. Certainly not the best moment but a good one nonetheless. |

Gone Gonzo Posts: 1861 Joined: 13 Dec 2007 | I've had so many awesome moments, but I guess I've got to pick one that's less personal. I was volunteering for a municipal politician, making phone calls. And I talked this curmudgeonly old guy from not wanting to vote because he'd lost faith in politics to voting for my guy just because of my passion for it. That was awesome. |
Beat Writer Posts: 173 Joined: 23 Apr 2008 | I've had my share of awesome and awful times, like most. Of the great times, there's one that will probably stick with me to the grave: Seeing my favorite band (that was disbanded when I started listening to them) perform a completely rockin' set and then losing my virginity in the same night to a great girl. Kinda ups the ante on best moments. Gets me all nostalgic. As far as random bonus moments, once a stanger deposited $650 into my bank account by accident. Let the bank know and let it sit for a few months, but nobody claimed it, so... Cool! |

You ever read "Great Expectations"? That was YOU! Did you become a respected gentleman? :-) |
Paperboy Posts: 30 Joined: 17 Aug 2008 | If he'd really read Great Expectations, he would have known that Joe Gargery is the real gentleman... Back on topic, there's nothing more than getting the school's 'star batsman' out, before he protests (for no good reason, obviously) and then on the very next ball...he gets out the exact same way, caught and bowled. Priceless. |

Gone Gonzo Posts: 3061 Joined: 13 Aug 2008 | Ages ago when I was in school some kid at the other side of the room passed me down one of those childish pictures that have the words "You big poo poo head" written on them. While he was laughing I scrunched up the peice of paper and threw it at him, and it landed in his mouth (he almost choked on it) |

Gone Gonzo Posts: 1847 Joined: 13 Feb 2008 | Some unbelievably obnoxious idiot at my school kept taking my book and running away guffawing with it. Now I am a relatively peaceful person, but this was really starting to annoy me. The third time he did this (in one day), this awesome (albeit very stressed looking) guy sitting next to me got up and completely floored the guy. Just smashed him. I picked up my book and the guy went back to studying. I think it was annoying the other guy more than it was annoying me. It was finals week for the first semester and we were both trying to study. I had only ever said two or three words to this guy. |

I didnt look at the scored board one during the match and just assumed I didnt win. At the end of the last round we both bowed and athe ref raised my hand! Geez it felt good! First comp - gold medal =D |

Infamous Scribbler Posts: 578 Joined: 13 Dec 2007 | I planned to join my school's Ultimate Frisbee team. However, there was one major obstacle interfering with that plan. The school and my house are about 18 kilometres apart and 1) I don't have a car to drive home in after practice Eventually, I made one of the decisions that would, to this day, define who I am. I was going to join the team, and screw motorized transportation, I'll walk home. About an hour and a half after I started walking home, a car pulled over next to me, and the driver was a guy from one of my classes who happened to be driving home from Rugby practice. He gave me a ride home, telling me how much of a hardass I was along the way. I spent the rest of the day having a huge ego trip. |

Copy Clerk Posts: 110 Joined: 19 May 2008 | I was little when they first opened Hurricane Harbor at Six Flags. My first time in the wave pool, I fell off my raft in the deep part towards the front. I couldn't breathe, and I kept getting hit in the head and shoved back underwater by rafts. Then a lady reached down and pulled me out. The best part is that I didn't drown. |

If he really read Great Expectations, he'd know that Ms. Havisham shoulda throw'd dat cake out. Also that bitch got lit on fire, and it was the best part of the book. Back on topic, as for me... Earning my black belt in Tae Kwon Do after four years of hard study. In a few months, I'll probably be adding "passing basic training" to this list. |
The Man So Nice They Named Him Twice Posts: 209 Joined: 4 Jan 2008 | These are great to read. There's another one I'll share- I had to go to summer school when I was in high school because I was sick for three months when I was a Junior. It was a miserable experience being with the collection of fuckwits that made up summer school classes. There was a chick in one class that was an AWFUL c--t to me (because of a very long story involving the t-shirt I wore the first day). Anyway, about two weeks after summer school ended I was driving past her at an intersection RIGHT after she had apparently had a car wreck. She was standing on the road next to her car, and it looked like she been rear-ended by another lady. I slowed down enough that she saw who I was and I yelled out the window, "NICE DRIVING! LOOKS LIKE YOU STILL ENJOY GETTING BUMPED IN THE ASS!!!" The look on her face is etched in my memory. |
