Too damned many people to list, I've made a shit ton of friends here and have a number of real life homies here as well (DevilonEnzyte, diabolik!, spungo, Rocornium, natenola, and I'm missing somebody) . I'm down with the guys I'm usually agreeing with or the cats that always write stuff that makes me laugh or think (Sleazy- I'm convinced that we're twins, Gipper- fucking cool as hell in real life, Vegan- definitely a homie, Art Newt- best risers in the business, Doc Newt- we disagree on nearly everything but I think we have a mutual respect even if we ever talk shit to each other, Tony, Brooklyn, Bipsmound, & MS- every post is guaranteed gold, SHEFFLEDGE FOREVER, COTG- contrarian extraordinaire, Ah Lee- wins at life, Pine- is winning at skateboarding, Mike Fork- chill as fuck in person like he is here and a pleasure to skate with and puke in front of, Cliff- sick skater and solid dude (thank you for past advice), ISUCK- I was one of the first to attack him but he wound up being a good guy, props for coming to NOLA, I could list forever, faster! for supporting his locals, sweets, matze, vicky, Yo Mr. Harp, Gest, Guile, Randozzi, Mark... all basically come across as cool people, I'm especially stoked on Slap staff being involved in the forums, perfection trips me out, Nancy- really smart and insightful, I miss Sebastian Toombs, crest makes me think in the poli/econ debates, and fuck it I can't write any more. If you're reading this you're probably on my list. I know a lot of you better than I know some of the people I work with.
Last thing: hearing Gip being blamed for overt Americanism/nationalism does. not. compute. Just go into his past posts... he's got a much broader world view than that. I thought that was self-evident? w00t
