Jabe Ruth

 

yep, one of these! : )
i actually introduced myself as it in my intro post (now edited out) so it's no secret.
back then i didn't really see how the place is, and i didn't imagine people calling me "beachbum" so i used my name as a like, you can call me this thing. NOW i obviously know that not everyone reads the intros and most new people don't stick around, so no-one would really remember.
i like being called drift and rue though too.
but yeah, i'm Jessica.

 

Rue comes from Ruth anyway.

 

Ruth isn't the curious part anyway, Babe

 

yeah, i realised after i said it.

 

babe is a nickname. his real name was george. which yes, is still relatively normal.

 

Do you want to say who?

 

Exactly, Babe was at the height of his career, in the middle of the biggest city in the world where he was right at home and had more fans than flies on shit, but did not hesitate to leave it behind, because he knew where he was going.

It's bad enough when you know people on the forums have died, I imagine it's significantly worse if you knew them irl

 

Wait a minute... you have? That's a little crazy to think about. I'm pretty sure that says something about the nature of the internet, but I'm not any good at interpreting these things. Congratulations PR!

 

When was this website even founded?

 

Bonzai? Seriously? That shit is terrible.

 

Babe looks more like a Fats to me.

 

DaFuc are you even talking about?

 

Yah, he died in a work accident.

Really tragic considering that I don't know if you talked to him much but he dealt with this rare condition where he had to go to dialysis on a weekly basis and apparently there was a treatment in the works for the following year.
