Progressive Boink

[Nick]

That Jon has the chance to beat Curt Schilling at something geekier than Fantasy Baseball.

I think it's a pretty big deal.

[Alicia]

I just read the "About".



How fun! I'm so jealous of Jon right now.

[knightni]

Heh.

My pal the Cheat is playing the Pale Hose!

[Matt W]

Also, Doug Glanville! He came from the same town as me, Teaneck, NJ. Not surprised to see him and Schilling in this, since they're allegedly huge Everquest geeks together.

At about 41 1/2 minutes of this week's "this week in tech" (aka "twit") progressive boink gets mentioned...uh, kinda. They were searching for the renamed "oink" site, called "boink". They were reading the first few search results from a google search for "boink" I guess.

"Progressive Boink, uh, Sesame Street memories" says tech journalism luminary John C. Dvorak.

So that's all they say about it. I don't know if it counts. But it was weird hearing it right in the middle of a tech podcast.

[Nick]

Stickin' that on the ol' resume.

That is awesome. They are both so adorable.

Your Regina Spektor bit was my favorite part of your "Top 100 Women" section, and you've elaborated on it to perfection. I would imagine this falls within my top five all-time "Dugouts" if this can be categorized as so.

bois!

how do you even get to BE in something like this. jealous x 4500, and i dont even know how to play strat-o-matic

[Alicia]

P.S. He's in company with Sean Foreman. Sean Foreman doesn't know but I am in love with him.

How fun! I'm so jealous of Jon right now.

Quoted for emphasis!

(still jealous)

[Jon]

I lost the season opener, 3-2. Then again, I lost against the guy who created Strat-O-Matic Baseball Online, so I'm not too down on myself.

[Jon]

I posted my first circa-1986 Dugout today. It was a blast to write, so I plan to post more when I'm able.

[TheEvilGingivitis]

Has anoyne mentioned that you are mentioned a whole bunch of times on this page of the Homestar wiki.
Somebody add the Strong Sad comparison from the Rob Liefeld article..

[emily]

That is so random.

[Spoodles]

well hell, how come nobody is talking about the ivoice sound of the city chatroom "dugouts?" they are surely a wonderful and glorious thing.
