Title: Hunting down the missing
Post by: Goose on May 11, 2011, 08:46:09 AM
Ok, so I figure we need a thread to hunt down the missing people.  Who all still doesn't know about this place?  I haven't seen rynne since the shutdown.

If we could convince pig to give us a wave, that'd also be awesome.

I also discovered we now have a "glow" button.  Neat.

I might be wrong but I thought I had an email from Rynne at some point. Have tried searching for terms like "Manorexia", "Steroid Maximus" and "Thirlwell" but found nothing. His first name brings up too many search results.

Maybe Pig could send out a mass email. I know that when he shut it down for about a month D talked to Pig and he sent an email through from D.

Wasn't doomsayer the one that went total stalker-asshole after him and what's-her-name-who-also-was-on-PI broke up?  I know her name's Rachel on FriendFace...

Wait, you mean we had real internal drama?  Christ, I didn't think that'd happened in...  well, close to 10 years.  I remember a recently-graduated-noob v. reg clash when I was but a wee noobling, but after that, the only public breakup between regs that I remember was amicable.  :o

no, dude, you're thinking pancake or something. he had a bunch of aliases. i don't think anyone else joined in on said drama. i don't even think rachel's current bf posts on the board.

nah, doomsayer was way younger and way cooler. he had nothing to do with any of that drama.
he's a comicbook nerd and videogame geek and pretty cool. i vouch for him... if we could find him.
Title: Re: Hunting down the missing

Oh right, that was evil_pancake I was thinking of.  Nevermind, I got shit straight in my head now.  Doomsayer's good people.
Title: Re: Hunting down the missing
Post by: Naylzie on May 12, 2011, 12:12:53 PM
Ohhh.  That's why evil_pancake disappeared?  Suddenly it all makes sense.  That all must have gone down on one of my random disappearances, and when I came back, I just figured he'd moved on, as some of the almost-regs always do.

I dunno, we had some pretty stupid trolls that couldn't get the picture that they weren't welcome...  Fruitcoffee and forever_troubled are the ones that come easily to mind, but I'm sure there were others.  And was it fruitcoffee or someone else that faked their death on 9/11?  It's been bothering me since the whole bin Laden take down thing.

Title: Re: Hunting down the missing
Post by: TPD on May 13, 2011, 12:25:56 PM
yes.

and the next step is sending me panty-pics.

or actual panties.

preferably used.

it's for my new ghosts record.

and you all loved that.

so don't cockblock that record from being made.

pre-edit:
i think we have a responsibility to spam-post because no one else is going to do it.

k, back to the original post.

deadpool.
remember him?

if i can get deadpool, doomsayer, and individualzero for christmas i'd be a happy dork.

i know they were frequent gamers.
anyone play online with them?
anyone got their deets?

Oh goodness yes...Matt even took the board offline once due to some drama, but that was before your time, I think.  After certain people flounced off and stopped using PI for their MPD fuckwittery and so forth, sanity returned.  Speaking of fuckwittery, no one is ever allowed to find Colette or I will kill you dead.

That.  That right there is about the only major drama I can ever recall having around here, though I don't regret witnessing it because her departure was a part of what really told me that I was a welcome and wanted part of this community and not just one of those twits that doesn't know when they're not wanted.

Also, after Chim kills you for contacting her, I will disinter your body and draw and quarter you in some very busy local area.

Title: Re: Hunting down the missing
Post by: Naylzie on May 14, 2011, 03:53:28 PM
Hell, why not?  The worst thing that can really happen is that someone doesn't feel like coming back  :'(  I've sadly expended my resources, though there are a few names that I have hesitated to bring up on account of the fact that they've been gone a while and I'm not sure what the circumstances surrounding their departure were:
Zephirusx (that might be his aim not his board handle...  twistfinger's brother)
Switchnola
SoulLess (same caveat for him as for Zephirusx)

There was someone else I'd noted missing from the lists so far, too, but now I can't think of who it was.  We're also missing a Marc.  I remember there were two because the first time the one who's here already was referred to as Marc I got epically confused.  Unfortunately, I can't remember the other one's username for the life of me.  I just know he isn't here yet.

Pin and Pinion are two different people.

Pin makes good music.

Pinion makes good fodder (and was Colette's "slave").

That's where I'm at.  It's silly, but seeing all the NEW flags on things just makes me really happy.  I missed the *community* a lot more than I realized.  I've got a bunch, not all, but quite a few, regs friended on fb, but it's not the same as all of us congregating in one place.

Are you talking about Demonica or whatever the hell her name was?  I can't remember if she used PI as a livejournal but she was annoying as hell and kind of didn't seem to care if she was being flamed or even what the thread was about, just posted blindly.

I remembered I had Evie and Marjolein's email addresses from way back (no idea if they're still current, but they didn't bounce back) and emailed them both with a link to this place. Tried Cat, too, but hers did bounce back. Chim, maybe you have a recent email address for her?

Presumably someone has messaged Austin and Bob about this place as they're both on twitter?
And has anyone been through the memberslist on the bunker and emailed anyone with an email address who wasn't nuts? (Or not nuts in a bad way, anyway?)

Want to add: I feel like we all lived together in a house that burned down or blew up or something. And it's great how everyone is making sure that everyone who lived in the house before can find our new place of residence, even the ones who moved out a while ago or had been away on a trip.

Yeah, just because someone has been gone for awhile doesn't mean they're gone forever; there was a period when I took about a year off from PI and if it had died during that period, I probably would have been lost.  Gotta make sure everyone gets the message!

Naylzie, what server are you on? Once I get a reliable internet I'm going to try my hand at dk tanking or I may swap my priest to a different server. Assuming all my time isn't taken up healing on my dr00d anyways lol

Hard question to answer directly  :huh:  I'm spending most of my time in-game lately hanging out with the super-gay Taint guild collaborative on Proudmoore Horde, but all of my 85s (except 1) are on Stormrage Ally.  I guess I'm plotting my next move on Stormrage.  It's a good server overall if you play Alliance (and yeah, friends may not let friends play Ally, but mine were the ones that CONVINCED me to :P)  I'll probably be more active there once I summon a spine to leave my dead-end guild to actually DO stuff.  Or convince them to merge into a bigger guild so I'm not playing alone all the time  :'(

  Once I get a reliable internet I'm going to try my hand at dk tanking

When the queue lines were long, I took time off from my lock to try tanking on my DK.  It is not overly difficult and you will love it. (not to mention the insta-queuing and goodie bags)  ;-)

Here are a couple of links to 5-man boss cheat sheets.  I would have one of these up on the other monitor when I first started tanking so I didn't noob it up too much on the bosses.  8-p

Tanking cheat sheet (http://swordboard.wordpress.com/2010/12/03/cataclysm-tanking-cheat-sheet/)

overall boss cheat sheet (http://www.mmowned.com/forums/world-of-warcraft/guides/313891-cataclysm-heroics-short-guides.html)
Title: Re: Hunting down the missing
Post by: Naylzie on May 18, 2011, 08:39:09 AM
Ehhhhh, I think the goodie bags are a bit overrated.  I haven't gotten anything that impressive from mine, nor do I know anyone who has.  I don't tank pugs anymore.  I tried it for a bit, but got sick of the idiots in queue.

Rob Boss Mods (http://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/info19146-RobBossMods.html) is also a nice little addon for making sure your group knows the fights.  Some of the newer boss fights (specifically the ZA/ZG reboots) are a little verbose, but most of them are fairly concise and having it saves a lot of time on typing out explanations.

Post by: r00 on May 18, 2011, 09:37:41 AM
I hear ya about the pug tanking.  Once I maxed out my tank set as much I could for 5-mans and rep, I chilled on it because the benefits no longer outweighed the personalities (and godawful dps) of some of those random people.  8-p
Title: Re: Hunting down the missing
Post by: Aaron on May 18, 2011, 12:38:42 PM
DK tanking =easy as shit and fun cuz the skills/spells look cool. Fuck Pug runs of ZA/ZG. 2 hours in there. Some was on me not knowing what to do, however, being a couple hundred dps above the tank for DPS isn't that amazing either...
Title: Re: Hunting down the missing
Post by: dee on May 18, 2011, 12:49:58 PM
Alliance? Omg... sorry love, but that's one switch I won't be making. Guess I'll stick to Nordrassil for the time being. Ty for the link tho. :)

Thanks for the cheats r00. I used to pally tank all the time but once we moved over here, I had to give it up. Same with heals. Latency is normally 1200 but since the last patch we're talking upwards of 2k. *sigh* Heck, I can't even dps anymore with my latency. So I quest and craft. A lot.  :lol:

lol Aaron. Yeah, the spell effect are cool, I must admit. And I love the sexy, bald orc look so that's another reason to run my dk  :))

Post by: Naylzie on May 18, 2011, 02:27:17 PM
@Freak - Other classes have fun spells!  Mine are gold and sparkly!  Not gonna lie; I never got the hang of DK tanking again after 4.0.  I had been tanking an alt ICC for my guild at the time, but when 4.0 came out, half of us didn't know how to play the alts we took to the alt run anymore and it slowly crumbled in favor of prepping for Cata.

@Dee - Totally understand :(  By the time faction swaps became available though, it was too late for me.  I had too many 80s and too many friends keeping me Alliance for it to be practical.  I'm considering taking my second (first?  abandoned?) 85 moonkin (maybe my 82 priest) and making her (them?) horde though, if anyone is on a good server I could take her (them?) to.
Title: Re: Hunting down the missing
Post by: dee on May 19, 2011, 09:55:56 AM
Doing anything after 4.0/Cata was a pain in the ass. The constant nerfs, the bloody talent resets...if a dev had been within throttling distance I'd have cheerfully choked the shit out of them. Thank goodness for Elitist Jerks or I'd never have been able to keep up with the changes. :)

Ash, I dunno where a decent server is, truth to tell. Especially since my old lady ass doesn't do pvp and I refuse to be on a pvp server! Nord is bad and getting worse. I have a guild to join once I'm stateside so it won't be AS bad, but still... I suppose I shouldn't complain too much. With 2 exceptions I'm pretty much stuck there. (Too expensive to transfer 7 85's lol)

Did that happen when me, TPD and a couple others goofed off with the Tool lyrics?  I remember we all got temp bans for that and started a silly 'nevar forget' thing over it.  That was too long ago to remember.....

I think it was the levi drama-nonsense that chim was referring to; the first incarnation of "The Bunker."  Am I right here?  That is, by my recollection, the biggest piece of drama PI has ever had.

i dunno if it was levi-inspired. he's actually been good the past few years. i was actually thinking of having goose contact him and make a mention on the hotline about the new board situation in an effort to get the remaining missing...

now concerning, the drama, my memory's foggy too, all i remember was it involved something a lot of us saw as a bullshit new rule, maybe involving accounts or something, or a double standard, i dunno all i know is we had fun with it.

i think the logic was, well, if we all admit to being the same person the rule doesn't apply. or it does apply and it was some big grand statement. either way a bunch of us exchanged the same log in details and we pulled a grand old sentient skynet dealymo (pi-net!)
i dunno how strongly i felt about the issue. i did it for the lolz.

i felt bad when people threatened to quit over my and others' suspensions and that caused some even more drama, and then the board went offline. a great old internet timeout.

maybe bob or boofu or static remembers the exact details behind it?

There was a whole big thing with Levi and meathead but that's not what I'm referring to.  This was when a certain crazy bitch was threatening to go to the police claiming they'd been "harassed" by members of PI.

My memory is just as shadey as yours.  In fact, you informed me of more than I remembered already.

The cause can't have been too important to me either, all I ever remember was us laughing over goofing around and then getting suspended during one session of Tool lyrics.  I think the suspension meant more to me than any cause or reason we had for doing what we did (see how vague I'm being, I really don't remember the 'cause' at all....) and yeah, it went a little too far when people were threatening to quit over suspensions, but more so, I just recall being quite stunned over how much it was never a big deal - in my eyes anyway - and yet suddenly turned into a huge drama sandwich.

I remember the Meathead/Levi thing.

Heh, the second part you're going to have to narrow down; who didn't we harass?  Newbie wise I mean anyway.  Who was that girl who kept posting pages upon pages of whiney emo diary crap?  That wasn't the same one who made the police complaints was it?

But again, I missed a lot of it so who knows.

-Speaking of people I used to talk to off-board (and ppl who are nuts) I wonder what ever happened to the fellow obsessed tori fan who ended up going off the deep end? I think some of you will know who I'm talking about.

- I miss cat a lot too. She was very cool, but really buried in a lot of stuff. I hope she made it over the hump.

I'm pretty sure I remember this, too. Then again, it could also be referring to two different people, neither of which surprises me that they would go to the police claiming to be harassed.

I definitely remember the drama and exactly who it was. Cz. And I also remember the white car incident. And everything else in between.

As far as the Tori fan goes, she actually moved out here and lived a few blocks down from me. Pretty sure she still lives in this town. I haven't crossed paths with her for a few years now though. Don't think I ever shared that part on PI (that we've met in person) , because I actually did empathize with her depressions and didn't want to defend why I would take that opportunity to even want to hang out with her before. But I do understand where anger towards her comes from, but I never thought it was funny (then or even now) that you guys can poke fun of cries for attention. Obviously, there's something wrong with her and a cry is a cry.

I never even contacted her much off the board before, but as it goes, found out through the grapevine that she moved to L.A., so went on the whim and invited her to hang out. I don't claim to be her friend or that I actually like her and I do find her offsettling, but I won't poke fun of her depression or defend her more than that.
Title: Re: Hunting down the missing
Post by: r00 on June 03, 2011, 07:22:23 AM
I don't think anyone was poking fun at depression but more at the way she chose to express it at that moment in time...  kind of a genotype/phenotype thing.  If she has posted a picture of her wrist cut open or bleeding, I don't think anyone would have been joking.  But to post a picture of your wrist that looks like you just barely scratched it with a plastic fork or ran it across the carpet and tell a bunch of people online that this is what they made her do to herself; that is internet comedy because it isn't serious.

I am glad to hear she moved to L.A. and is hopefully doing well.

Cat was wicked awesome!  I, too, hope she's made it through everything okay; I remember how stressed out she was when she disappeared.

It's interesting to me to see how some of these things were legend by the time I arrived.  Cz, as a person/poster doesn't really sound familiar, but the NAME looks vaguely familiar to me.  I also wonder, to some degree, why we are so concerned about leaving out internet handles.  Not that it really matters all that much, being that these are primarily people who we would rather not see return, but as it stands, we are relatively a private community at the moment, rather than the more public and open-to-scrutiny place we were in during that time.  The risk of any naming/shaming going on is fairly slim, and that's about the only reason I can easily conjure for being cagey.  It's just kind of confusing to talk about, is all.

I vaguely remember the MPD nonsense, and, if I'm thinking of the right incident, I think I may know why nobody really remembers what it was about.  I don't think that the cause was a cause, so much as an opportunity for mischief.  As I recall, we had multiple trolls that turned out to be the same person or something, and then we had a rash of regs creating secondary accounts and/or account sharing, or maybe it was a couple of regs that nobody knew was the same person?  Something.  It's fuzzy, and the more I try to remember the more confused it gets.

I think the meathead/levi thing comes down to "which time?" :P
Title: Re: Hunting down the missing
Post by: threatsicle on June 03, 2011, 05:31:27 PM
Cz wasn't their handle. Only abbreviated. Don't think we're omitting names out of fear like saying VOLDEMORT. Googlebots just picks up on a lot of interesting things. :)


Oh yea. Also had a random bar bump-in/encounter with Meathead due to my strange friendship with Buddyhead, but pretty sure I shared that on board already.

Basically told him that naut told me to slap him. He told me not to physically do it though, which was a disappointment (to me). He also expressed mild curiousity about the fact that the nin.com thread was still kickin' when I mentioned it. And that was pretty much the extent of our brief convo.

Title: Re: Hunting down the missing
Post by: Naylzie on June 03, 2011, 06:27:46 PM
No, no, I remember Cz, and what it's short for.  She flamed out around my arrival.  I don't remember most of the bigger issues you guys have mentioned.  Just sort of the end.  Good point on the googlebots though, that's entirely fair and I (obviously) had not considered it.  Friggin spiders. 

Cube and BA were cool, too.  Not sure I knew that being assimilated in China was a probability, I suspect I may have missed that in one of my absences...  or maybe it's just been that long since he's been around.

It amazes me how well some of the rest of you have retained names.  I'm REALLY bad with names.  I need faces to remember them.  If you started tossing old avatars at me (provided they weren't the generic PI defaults) I could probably start spitting out names.  Even when we had camwhore threads, a part of how I started remembering people was pairing avatars with signatures more than actual usernames.  I dunno.  I'm probably fucking weird for that.  Sometimes when someone would chance their avatar back then, I'd completely lose the thread of the conversation because I would suddenly have trouble identifying the speaker, like a book with a lengthy dialogue with odd paragraphing and poor use of quotation marks.

ETA: The other thing that threw me was when name changes became available, I was on a mini-hiatus, I forget why.  Hell, at the time, I might have been grounded or something equally stupid.  We had dialup in the house back then (omg) so it was much harder for me to sneak online without my parents knowing since the cord had to go across the friggin kitchen and it took out the house phone as long as it was connected  ::)  How I do not miss those days.  (And, for that matter, how I do not understand why we didn't just get a second line for the internet.  It wouldn't have broken the bank, by any stretch).  I remember Obfu was one of the ones who changed her name (can even see her original avatar in my head, by which I mean the first one *I* saw) but she changed her avvie with it and it took me FOREVER to figure out she was herself after the fact.   :(

I remember Vivian and how often her posts were just :) or some other face. And I'm pretty sure Zombie Jesus was a MPD. I have no clue why, but his name has always stuck with me. And the tread calling him out on his MPDing seamed almost like a joke.

Still am, actually.  I've always been Nayl_Girl here, except for the one time I got locked out of the account and couldn't get my password sent to myself because the email it was attached to was dead, but twilight_garden_faery was my yahoo handle (favourite Cure song + faery), which was condensed to twilytgardnfaery for AIM and consequently everything else.  My account on the original PI has been around much longer than I've had that yahoo account though, and I created that specifically for a shoutcast (I think) sponsored chat with Robert Smith being hosted in a yahoo chat.

Oper was cool too, sad to hear she'd had a falling out with someone... is that why she left, or just a coincidence?

I hope she has sorted her shit out and is doing well.

Both Stu and Emma are registered users on this board.
They've stopped posting/lurking the same reason why most people do -- sometimes, you just move on.

& K: I'm not saying this to be mean, but the fact is that she moved out here chasing the same foolish dream everyone who comes out here chases. And pretty sure she faced the shattering reality that most of them also face. I'm not sure if that says anything about her well-being though or if it made her "stronger", but it is what it is. And as I've said, I've not spoken to or seen her in years, so I wouldn't know how she's doing now or want to upkeep and find out.

Find it, find it, find it!

I feel worried about my memory, I have vague recollections about most of the drama mentioned in this thread, but I can't remember any of it that clearly, the one's that most stick out in my mind was all the MPD shit from the other NIN forum when they decided to come over and act like it was infant school on our boards (which I believe was also what the Zombie Jesus shit was about too). 

I remember us all going to the Bunker a long time back because the board was down, but I'm not sure if that was due to PIG having personal matters or if it was down to the harassment nonsense.  Did the board ever shut down any other time than the harassment stuff?

Now that we have established that:

I have said before that RENfIELD was created as a troll account because I was bored and felt out of place as 4wounds2salvation. Someone called my bluff early on, and I dropped the being non-sensical and annoying thing for a clean slate (the trolling lasted maybe two days). I forgot the password to my account and created adsf as a place holder until someone could reset my password (I think this was during Pig's first major disappearance), but I decided to stay with it. This may account for one of your memories as me having an MPD, along with TPD's goatse.cx, and someone else's who I cannot recall.

If I remember correctly, The Bunker came about because the forums went down for (system migration/maintenance/updating). The second time the Bunker came into use was Exodus, when most of us decided to move there to wait out a MASSIVE n00b influx (harassment, or just plain avoidance...not sure on what the reason was). There were other instances of it's use, but I think those were the only two times when most of the regs moved over temporarily. I could have those two instances backwards.

I BELIEVE the PInet idea came about when someone was being a douche-canoe and created another account to either sympathize with the first account or buddy up to it (i.e. Weird Science for the lonely / abrasive). There was an outcry about this, but nothing was done to the offender on the grounds that he wasn't using his MPD for any ill purpose or something. There was harassment by the regs, and a warning from a mod or possibly Pig himself. Those who shall not be named (Boofu, TPD, Static, myself...hope I'm not missing someone) devised a plan to fuck with said party pooper, and the idea was to log in and post from different locations around the globe (of course on different IP addy's, which only the mod/admin would be able to see). The goal was basically to incite whoever was stopping us from having fun. It worked. We got suspended, and then I think some people got upset. I remember TPD and I talking through someone (r00?) who acted as a sort of Public Relations rep for the Prisoners in Exile, who posted quotes from us. I THOUGHT that the person who suspended us didn't want to do so, but as they expressed, it was their job as a mod/admin and we did receive apologies beforehand. For the record, PInet took a lot of coordination and orchestration with the logging in and logging out and properly timed posts, post order, and targets. None of us were serious about it, and it was done in good humor which didn't fall as funny to everyone at the time (probably because of tightening tensions, the "no flame" law in effect, and probably other issues I dont remember).

I think the other Kiwi was Species09780 or something like that. I remember the Aliens avatar. Or I could be wrong.

Wasn't meathead levi? Levi may have popped up around the time, meathead and I had a dickwaving contest that really bummed out most of the board. I could swear someone told me they were the same or something to that effect because I was surprised about it.

Anyway, I'm super happy to see most of my favorite people here. I can't promise to be faithful to this forum. Being the Aquarian that I am, I'm sure I'll be distracted eventually. For those that care, you can add me on facebook: facelessw4rri0r@gmail.com or under Jim Robbs, though I've already collected most of you :p

I think the other Kiwi was Species09780 or something like that. I remember the Aliens avatar. Or I could be wrong.

All that name conjures up for me is a middle-aged male that liked posting shirtless pics of himself and talking about swinging parties or something. 

Can someone verify this is correct and that I am not recalling a nightmare filled with body hair and the odor of Old Spice?

meathead and levi were different people, but were usually of the same mind, so it's an understandable mistake.

Species8472, which is a Star Trek: Voyager reference.  He had said species as an avatar.

He posted for awhile before... you know.  I remember I actually got along with him for a few months before... you know.

Considering that the board existed on the internet and all, I'm actually kind of shocked that his was the only incident of that nature.

i had been ignoring my email for sometime. I was going through that stuff after Luna said she emailed what she thought was me, and yes, it was. It was just hidden in the 100s of emails of spam. Having 2 jobs and going to school (about to graduate now, by the way. my last semester) tends to make sifting through emails at home a chore, especially when you hardly use the damn thing.

Luna tried, I failed.  :-X

Dude, i totally charffed at THAT show... I thought you knew. I got to the venue sick on RedBull & Vodka (as luna said) and rushed the washroom and was splooorging my guts out... i stumble out of the men's room looking disoriented and confused (because I was) and then I hear and eventually see Luna say, " Are you Theo/TPD?"

Epic. Meetup.

After that I was rocking out in the front-row like a madman.

Good times.

I don't care if I'm too old to party, I'm having a quarter-life-crisis.

yeah, i hadn't drunken much in awhile at that point, and was still getting used to the "sudden" weight loss, so, needless to say, i was quite pukey. even remember running out of a car and puking in front of a cop car.

yes. i'm airing my trashy ways out in the open. i have no shame. :)

puking in front of a cop car.

THAT, that right there, is THE WORST.  I got sick, like, food poisoning or something-- absolutely NOT booze related-- after a poetry slam one night, and was trying to get back to my friend's car when I was hit with such a strong surge of nausea that I had to stop and puke in a snowbank.  Mind, at the time, I was probably rather obviously underage.  I was around 17, and generally looked older, but when I'm sick I lose any of the carriage and presentation that contribute to my looking my age (since even now that's not enough to get served without an ID most of the time).  My friend was very clearly NOT even the least bit intoxicated, but still, the officer's first question to him was not, "Is she okay?" it was, "Has she been drinking?"  Ugh.  As if people absolutely NEVER fall ill in public, away from home, and need to reach a car in a state of illness that ISN'T alcohol induced in order to get home and recover.  It's not even like we'd come out of a bar; we were leaving a freaking poetry slam at an art gallery, ffs.   :hmm:  And people wonder why, although I've never run particularly afoul of the law (one speeding ticket, but no other infractions of any kind), I so strongly dislike the police as a general rule.

On the other hand, puking in front of a fire station: totally the best.  My wife's cousin did that once.  Had too much to drink, my wife was driving him home, and half-way he screams "PULLOVA IM GERNA SPUW".  So she does, and it happens to be right in front of a fire station, he flings the door open and proceeds to blow chunks all over their driveway.  A couple firemen come out to see what's going on.  While her cousin is still doubled over out the car door, my wife waves to them and says "Hi, I'm so sorry!!"  Their response:

"It's ok.  I'm pretty sure we have a hose."

Ha!

Well, to be perfectly honest, 99.9% of public illness that a police officer sees in his duties is going to be alcohol related.  In that situation, I wouldn't take their questions personally.

I think it's just one of those things that's stamped in my brain with my emotional response at the time, which, being as sick as I was and also rather young (I can finally admit that I was often a righteously indignant teen with little-to-nothing to be indignant about...  you, among others, probably remember :unsure:).  It was just exceptionally unpleasant and when I think about the incident, I remember how unfair the comment had seemed at the time.

So true.
If you were headed to a car maybe he was trying to prevent a DUI, or maybe he was confused as to how you came out of the slam so sick.*

It is not uncommon for people to be drunk at non-drinking establishments, ESPECIALLY under age. I used to get hammered and go places all the time when I was in high school, and see it more and more these days (read: I think I'm getting old).

I was 25 when I had my first severe allergic reaction. Called 911 and the cops showed up. They pestered me and my sis for a good 15 minutes about "what drugs is she on". Finally pissed the paramedics off and they angrily stated I was in anaphylactic shock and to kindly shut up and leave me alone.

Personally I think some of the cops just like being assholes...
