Something Awful and Friends - The roller-coaster train-wreck embarrassing downfall of a Web 1.0 giant and its tick offspring like from Cloverfield

[pwnest injun]

The forums will die when Lowtax dies since his ex wife and current wife will fight over who gets the forums profits to supports their kid(s). It will probably be sold off as a one time lump sum but I have no idea who would want to by it at this point.

God, I fucking hope it's Notch.

Here is the fun part and why I've said this for years:

"Kevin Dawes was sold out by Eliot Higgins. "

Kevin Dawes aka Caro was in contact with Brown Moses aka Eliot Piggins when he was crossing into Syria. Piggins contacted the Syrians with the place Caro was crossing over and date and time and he was picked up, and treated as a CIA agent.

So yeah, guess who spent a couple years in Hotel Syria thanks to Eliot Piggins? I can't wait until someone extracts his pound of flesh for that one.

I have a soft spot for Caro. Nigga crazy, like legit needs treatment and meds crazy, and he probably did more harm than good going to Libya to be a sniper/medic, but goddamn if I don't have to give him props for putting his ass where his mouth was.

God, I fucking hope it's Notch.

Nah, he’s not dumb enough to waste money on that shit.
Besides, the dumb goons would never accept him as an owner.

Skullmund was painfully unfunny but I hoped it would outlast SA so everyone would have to migrate there and they would all get owned.

God, I fucking hope it's Notch.

Stop giving me impossible dreams. The meltdown would be glorious.

Preemptively dividing SA would be a fun side project. Just set up a fake woke forum that serves as an alternative to goon city. And watch lowtax’s income drop down to his testosterone level.

He's got enough money to afford a spite acquisition.

Notch would make SA great.

That would be like buying an oil tanker full of AIDS blood just out of pure spite.
Nobody does that.

Correction, nobody with a small mind does that.

You have to dream big, see the infinite possibilities.

Counter point:
If you were offered the opportunity to buy Something Awful for $500 and be able to unleash your will on the trannies and NEET commies, would you do it?
Because assuming Lowtax held out for $5 million, that's about what it would be for Notch.

No, because it would make lowtax happy. He needs to suffer for filling up an oil tanker with AIDS blood in the first place.

Counter point, do you know what happens to an addict when they stumble in a huge wind fall?

I think divide and conquer would be more fun. Just siphon off goons to fake forums with “woker” admins until there are no more 10 bucks cucks and Patreon paypigs and then shut down the fake forums once goon city is dead.

 

[Back me up!]

You guys are going off track here. In this scenario Lowtax has already kicked the bucket and it's his family looking for a pay day to be done with the forums.

My point still stands: it’s an oil tanker full of AIDS blood and the AIDS blood is mixed with salt so it can’t be used as fertilizer. Nobody wants to buy that.

That skullmund thread has them openly talking about kiwi farms the "doxing" Hey guys glad you read this thread come have fun.

 

[Dom Cruise]

Even at the best of times I always got this sanctimonious vibe from everything about Something Awful, this very arrogant attitude that I always found off putting.

Seems like every other website could deal in self deprecating humor, but not SA

 

[Bungus Scrungus]

SA makes me worry. What if the same could happen to this site, too?

I remember when I used to post there, some goon once unironically called the general environment and demeanor of SA the "Premier Posting Experience."

I still like to break that one out from time to time.
