Forum Overview :: We Love Katamari

This is about a poster on Portal of Evil proper that went by the name of SlackjawedJB. Many years ago he had an epic sadsplosion in one of the forums. I guess he also posted on SA and other forums, because in November '08 there was an even more epic update about his life on smyd.info, which I guess is the new SASS.

Here is the start of his meltdown thread on POE. DO NOT skip to the very bottom until you have a thorough understanding of our hero. Seriously, don't. You will hate yourself for it. You can skip a chunk of the first half of the thread since it's just a bunch of bitchy infighting about the old POE-Con. It might be funny in its own way, but has nothing to do with the story.

Here is where things start getting great.

If you're pressed for time and don't feel like wading through the entire thread, then there was a greatest hits compilation conveniently posted to give you special insight into our hero. Unfortunately the broken image links used to be pictures of him, but you can probably visualize a rough approximation from descriptions in other posts. But however you read the thread, don't skip this post.

By this point you can scroll to the bottom and read the post by The Townleybomb from 1/25/09 linking to the glorious conclusion on smyd. I'm being intentionally vague because I want to give away as little as possible. It really is more magical that way.
