The only real "fever dream" that I had was just a dream of me in my room.  My room was absolutely normal, at least in terms of looks.  But I couldn't stop staring at the red standby light on my stereo, because it was actually a dinosaur that was trying to kill me.  Like, it didn't look like a dinosaur or make noises or even move.  I was just filled with the knowledge that despite it looking in very way like a normal light, it was actually a dinosaur that was plotting to kill me.  And then I actually did wake up, and my room was exactly the same, except now I knew the light wasn't actually a dinosaur.
 
Only time in my life that I actually wondered if I had gone insane.

Got an epic length one.
 
For one reason or another, the government decided to make high schools teaching life skills mandatory, and thus is providing additional education even for those who already completed college/higher education, so I was back in my heavily renovated high school with my old classmates, The school itself had a darker paint theme, and the layout was more of a labyrinth then a school, and had living quarters for some reasons (much like a dorm).
 
For the first night back, people just kinda caught up with each other, talking about what they did over the years, don't remember what but most people took office jobs so their lives were relatively boring,  I did met up with my old HS crush (who was also single), confessed my love for her, and spent the night with her. Cut to the first day of class, cooking,  they were teaching basic skills on how to make food for oneself, with things like roast chicken, pizza, etc.  I guess there was a magic refrigerator, because I somehow got the ingredients for sushi and made a spectacular platter that wowed everyone. Cut to lunch, with it somehow being the platter enough for more than 700 people.
 
The afternoon class was automotive repair, with a project of a demolition derby at the end of class, with the instructor giving out the bare minimum of information, so most people did not build/fix enough for the upcoming contest, since I work in the business, I proceed to utterly destroy everyone in fixing, and then the demolition derby afterwards. People got mad at me for some reason, and had a long chase through the school, with even more weird/non-euclidean geometry, then slowly, I got the "running very slowly in a dream" thing going on, and woke up.

Last I read of it, it was made by a secondary team, 2K Australia, which is why literally everyone has an Australian accent and pretty much every character is a bland one-note sociopath.

This is the first boss theme for Exceed 3 Jade Penetrate Black Package (can you tell that's a title from a Japanese company?):
 
 
The boss fight is choreographed so that the final attack comes at 1:30, and from that point on there's maybe 20 seconds left in the boss fight.  So the cool new movement that starts at 2:00 will only be heard in game if you really delay on the results screen.

I grew up in a desert and I still know how to swim!
 
Though I haven't swam in years because I don't want chlorine to mess up my hair

You know what would be really poggers, fam? If you yeeted yourself off a fucking cliff.

Touche

Wasn't sure to put this in random or music but it's more music than random so w/e

I've since found that the name is more common than I previously thought, so I can list it without doxing anyone.
 
It was "Mai Wang."

The ross's game dungeon "one track wonder" for this game wasn't kidding, I can't believe I never went and listened to it until now

lmao why are you guys digging up old polish meme songs

That's my brother's classic "joking around with friends" line that he's used since high school, but now the thing is that a significant number of his friends have both a wife and kids so now it's wrapped around from being an ironic statement to actually just being something someone his age would say

One of my fondest TF2 memories tbh, it was so cash efficient and you could run the rocket jumper to get anywhere fast. The only thing it wasn't that good against was the tank, but a quick swap could take care of it ezpz

On a related note, searching for keyboard related tech forums is pretty fun.
 
Lots of posts like: "plllleassss hlhpp keybbrrd doesnnnnn ttttpppe rtighhhttt" and I can't tell which are jokes.

Chatrooms are great with a small group. I know a group that probably only survived because of a chatroom keeping a continuous stream of jokes/memes/random stuff in a more freeform format that couldn't really happen on a forum. But once the group gets too large you get the "discord room collectors" who may as well not be there unless you @ them, and the chat moves far too fast for you to really get much of a discussion, OR everything gets divided into subchats and everyone ends up just checking the one they care about and essentially removing themselves from the rest of the community anyway.
 
FSPF had a decent spread of people that wasn't too insular (an issue subSPUF had once SPUF died, oops) but groups of people still knew each other. When I first started browsing I saw all the stuff you guys did and was fascinated with the culture that had built up. Like Raison said, it was a great "medium" sized community. I can get a decent feel for what a "large" community is with how the Apex subreddit is and it really is shouting into the void. Things move so fast that only the mega upboat ideas circulate (also doesn't help that it's reddit but still). It may have also been some kind of latent high school desire to be a "cool kid" in a group who gets recognized that motivated me to get "in" with the SPUF crowd. But either way it was fun, I enjoyed my time back then and I still like y'all now.
 
I don't really know where I was going with all this, I just wanted to talk about it I guess. I think chats are really best for an insular group so you can share your sick injokes amongst each other, but forums let you get a much more coherent conversation going that can actually last for more than an hour or so before everyone goes back to looking at anime tiddies and stops checking the chat.
