I've had the flu - maybe twice in my life. Colds of course too, but nothing crazy.
That nonsense on the 'Net? -No.

I used a flatbed scanner and photoshop elements back in the late 90's to make some of the first magazine vs clip graphics. I still see it randomly show up all over the place. Ive seen it in gun forums, lots of gaming forums, car forums, and many blogs.

Bad quality since i am just linking it to someone that shrunk it.

A post I made about a 1911 from Iwo Jima was a little popular.

About 4 months after posting the pics and the story, my friend shows me a chain email he received from a friend, and it was the story I posted. Thought it was pretty cool.

ETA, have seen my avatar used multiple times at various places on the net.

Internet famous because the dealership wrecked my ride. There was a pretty good thread here about it too.

A lot of naysayers here too, but I won.

On the interweb?

I've said and posted some profound shit in the past on social media. I've since nuked all accounts, we are a FB free home now since May.

Any of you guys secret internet stars? Ever seen any of your original thoughts posted elsewhere? Been quoted elsewhere?

Yes. So much so it was covered this election, has had videos about the topic removed from social media on all platforms, and possibly led to people getting arrested.

LOL no.

The "Chestnut Mare" is my 1969 Mustang which tried to car-b-que itself a few years back, thank you ethanol and old rubber gas lines. Everything in front of the firewall had to be replaced.

Yeah...I took this picture outside of Chesapeake, VA. It's difficult to tell, but the license plate says "GODANUS".

I'm sure they meant to say "God and us", but were limited to seven letters.

It went sort of viral many years ago.

Here's the actual license plate (this is not my picture). I took the above picture.

My sig line has been quoted here and there.

Otherwise, there is a video of our (now deceased) dog digging a hole in the yard while barking and crying that my girlfriend's brother took that had ~100,000 views on youtube before he took it down.

Thats all I got. I have no youtube and never post videos (or much of anything for that matter) on facebook.

One day I made a thread titled "Are these the salad days of magazine prices?" and it took off from there. I always feel a little pride when I see somebody say it.
