As one ages out of 8th grade, a new one takes over.
Exactly. And the actress knows Colin.
Anyway, I do agree that there are more unlikely real people here, and that other people have actually met all of them.
Where's the praising and extolling of my virtues? Where's the love?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
The thing about Gus was, yeah, his backstory was kind of incredible. But then, so is ita's (Jamaican daughter of a research scientist, can kill you with her pinky, old friend of CFerg?). Or Jilli's (would *you* believe in her if you hadn't seen her?). Or Jon B.'s (silver. pleather. thereminist. actuary. in a White Castle commercial).
Yeah, but I've met ita, Jilli and Jon B. (And Colin, for that matter, who quite cheerfully vouched for ita's existance and overall awesomeness.)

ION, I still didn't really feel like eating it, but I make a damn fine meat sauce.

I've met Jon B., but not Jessica. (Blue-haired BBC documentarian?) Yeah, the elusiveness was an issue, but I believe in Rick V., even if he's a rare poster and I don't think anyone's met him.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Well, everyone tells me I'm a cartoon character.
Hee. Wallybee says the same thing about me. (More precisely, that living with me is like living with an overgrown cartoon character. And her nickname for me is 'Pangzi', which is Chinese for 'Fatty McFatfat Fatterson, King Fatty of Fattown.' She tells me it's a term of endearment.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Well, there's no proving anything now. But I can say I believe everyone here is who they say they are, and that they're within inches of any stated height. Gus is the only poster I've ever doubted, and that was before he died. Or whatever.
And Fast Eddie really doesn't help. It avalanches.

Our wings are not tired.
That Gus thing is weirdcakes.
Why does Annalee's name sound so familiar, DavidS and P-C? Is it the KFOG host?
ETA: Nebbermind, I know of her through Writers with Drinks.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
But I can say I believe everyone here is who they say they are, and that they're within inches of any stated height.
I'm actually 4' 11".
Um, on my knees. Or something.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
I'm actually 4' 11".
Too many of us have met you to believe that one, boyo.
Um, on my knees. Or something.
I still think you may be taller on your knees.
