I mean besides regulars like Momus and John MGD. Like, I just read that thread where Fred Falke popped in, and I seem to remember one where the House Crew guy posted as well. And those were just the dance ones! I can't even imagine what's going on in threads I don't have the time for.

I'm sure someone's already made threads like this, so if so just point me to them.

Amy Linton from the Aislers Set (drunk, too!), one of the main Aluminum Group guys recently, PROBABLY NOT REALLY KARL BARTOS.

Alasdair from the Clientele.

― Schwingung (Damian), Sunday, 28 December 2003 10:09 (twenty-one years ago)

Aaron did you find her yet? I'm pretty sure it was just a Aislers Set C/D thread, should be easy, I swooned a bit too I guess but I hadn't posted yet so I ended up doing so hastily and looking like a fucking KISSASS, too bad.

I mentioned in the thread years later but still amused that this long running topic was started by a teenaged Will Sommer planning for college, years before he became a rather well known political journalist on the subject of Q in particular.
