I was AWOL from neogaf for a few months around this time, so I missed this gem of a thread. I'm at the first page, but hooooly shit. Someone please tell me this guy was only 12? Scratch that. That's being unfair to 12 year olds. This guy is a massive douchebag turd that probably thought his shit smelled like roses.

But I'm going to read all the pages. Can't wait till the backfire goes full effect. Stet saw it coming in the first few posts lol.

that one thread with the guy who was unemployed for many years walking out of a 70k job interview because the person that was going to interview him was late or something and it ended with him saying something about men drinking breast milk making men feminists or something equally insane.

I am bookmarking this thread for untold future hours of cringey goodness.

While I'm here...I seem to remember reading a thread while I was still lurking in which a guy took huge amounts of offense at a waitress sitting down at his table to take his order. The word "servant" was thrown around a lot. Am I hallucinating that thread, or was it here?

I don't know if it was a "backfire" but some guy was trying to get laid or something and ended up posting an actual picture from the aftermath of his interaction(whatever it was exactly idk) and he got banned I'm assuming.

Was it the girlfriend says "Thank you" after sex and it bothered the OP thread, where the OP posted audio? Girlfriend Says "Thank You"

Edit: Amazing summary: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=145927486&postcount=1065

Also my vote is, So my girlfriend cheated on me with a what? Need advice. OP thinks a ghost went down on his girl.

The rewritten bible guy's thread. No words...

All I have to say is that he inspired me to go back to writing my fantasy Dracula story. I guess that's that.

This isn't EXACTLY a thread backfire-but close. The OP posts that his dog basically killed a neighbor's cat. He takes the cat to he vet, refuses to pay the bill and leaves. Then he asks if he should tell anyone in the neighborhood.

Jesus. He even admits at points it's not the first time his dog has done that, he has a small child and his wife is afraid of the dog.

I hope to God that's a troll thread.

Gaming side, but

"Nintendo is removing games from my Wii U and 3DS."

Turned out OP had multiple family profiles on his account (probably in addition to using more than one account too because I'm sure there was a limit on how many people you could add as family per account) used Club Nintendo as a shipping service for the physical rewards in addition to giving away digital codes.


I think he ended up breaking these terms in the TOS, IIRC:

register more than once as a Club Nintendo member;
register the same Nintendo product more than once, unless expressly permitted by us;
make use of Coins in any way other than for your own or members of your Family Account's personal use -- in particular, you may not sell, buy or auction Coins or transfer Coins to another account;

Jesus christ, the OP of that thread.

Rest said:
So it wasn't an "it's your birthday, we'll treat you to strippers" kind of thing, it was just "we want strippers, and your birthday is the perfect excuse?" So then, any implied benefit to you would be a façade, and they're using you to facilitate their own recreation.

If I may ask, why would you go along with this? Would it cause problems at work if you balked?

I refuse to believe this was typed by anything other than an alien or a robot.
