"This made me think of you peeps"
Posted by mrc on 02-10-15 at 06:24 PM
Even if websites don’t disappear, they evolve. (Usually—to my great delight, Homestarrunner.com has been preserved in amber since 2000.) As a young Francophile, in early high school I frequented the chat room on a website called Polyglot, where people from different countries helped each other learn languages. It has since been rebranded “Polyglot Club” and my old account is irretrievable.That might be for the best—whatever I would find would be embarrassing at best, horrifying at worst. This was the rationale behind deleting my old Xangas. That, and not wanting anyone I know to ever see what I thought was cool to post on the Internet when I was 14.

Yeah. Couldn't remember anything about the email I used when I signed up so since everyone called me that anyway, I figured I would just go with Tkit.Hi!

I ran into the same problem hence agman2! Are you here for awhile or just passing through?

I've been here all along just decided to finally re-register.

Glad to see you back.I always thought Thunderkitty was a pretty imaginative name. But so is Tkit.
Just think, you're young again. We will have to teach you to use the litter box again, but that's alright. We can do that.

There is a hair salon in my neighborhood called Esti's. Can't help but get a giggle out of the idea of Estee styling hair.Oddly, I come across lots of things in my life that will remind me of the people and threads from around here even so many years later.

Take a picture of that shop's namesake and post it.You'll have to ditch your cell and creadit cards, stay out of RTVW, and find a bunker in Outer Mongolia to lie low in for a while.
But it'll be worth it, and you can proudly boast on your tombstone that you took a picture of Estee. And we can add to our growing list of Famous Last Words.

LAST EDITED ON 02-25-15 AT 06:24 PM (EST)That's fer sure! I don't feel safe walking the conferences any more. It's dark and scary and I keep hearing noises. One of which sounds like this: "heh heh heh"
