-foot flushers -uncorraled shopping carts -crazy girl who wanted to marry her cousin -hair flips There was a Golden Age of hair flips. We used to rate them on a scale of 'who were you, again?' to 'shock and awe'. After Nurse Kitty, every single one paled in comparison. oooh, I don't remember Nurse Kitty. it must have been a doozy. I only remember the recent Merlot one.

The nurse kitty hair flip was epic.
How about the pea who faked her suicide then came back to,the board and basically mended fences?
Or the pea who got arrested in some kind of drug bust?
Or the pea who scammed a bunch of people? This was at the very beginning of 2 peas.
Or the pea who was looking for a date for her son (or was it a daughter) for the prom?
Or the pea who hated policemen and talked about how all of them were corrupt? She completely flipped out.
Now, my question. Did the term "Thrusday" come from the torn bear debacle? Or was that a blog thing?

Foolana created the alternate smack blog and all of her accounts were deleted. Well there you go. Mystery ended. Kind of remember the name, but not anything else. I am still waiting for the owner of that damn chair to come back and update me. So sad they gave it back to MIL. I wanted them to keep the chair, too!

I came to the peas late (in the last 18 months before they closed). The weirdest thread I remember was the anti-circumcision thread. I think a pea said her husband had some issue with being circumcised as a baby (like PTSD) or something along those lines. That thread went for ages.

OG Original Gangster… or old school as the much older crowd calls it.

She also was the one who supposedly found a fully stocked Crop in Style tote at a construction site or something. She was certifiable.

I always seemed to miss the good hair flips and it always bummed me out. #thestruggleisreal I think my favourite, other than the Nurse Kitty 'knitting hags' flip, was the lady who signed up for the sole purpose of telling us how crappy we were, and then hair flipped in the very same post. She was technically a 'who are you again?' but kind of epic at the same time.

I can't remember who it was but they went to the GYN for a routine checkup and discovered her cervix was missing. Haiku ensued. I think that was Lexica? That was the Funniest thread ever!

I also remember an epic thread about using the handicap stall if you aren't handicapped.

French teenager was Fleur I believe. (name just a coincidence lol) HOFgate was EPIC. Bernadette DID claim over and over and over again that *SHE* set her camera on a tree branch and then a rock to get the timed shots from the raft with her remote. The pea detectives raked her over the coals for such crap. One Anastasia Beaverhausen was relentless. She asked her if the rafts stopped and she got out and positioned it just so at each turn. She had Bernadette running in circles. It was delicious. Bernadette *INISISTED* that she was the sole photographer, until someone contacted the rafting company and saw the photo she had with the credit to the rafting company's photographer on it and a time stamp! It was mayhem after that. She finally caved and told the truth. The guy, was Mitchell something. He was a young teen/early 20's male scrapper. Rare in those days. He entered with a photo of himself on horseback and the photo was taken from behind. That one also got everyone riled up. Kristina Contes debacle was more to the fact that she called all scrappers "Susie Scrappers" Meaning they weren't up to HER standard of a 'life artiste' or whatever she called herself. She then blasted a bunch of people for questioning her "fame" and her crediting someone else in her HOF win" It was then revealed that she was pre-chosen to win and that the contest had been rigged for years. It was a mess and Ms. Contes (who was very rude and obnoxious IMO) came on again and blasted everyone for being envious of her fabulous lifestyle. Come on people, she owned a restaurant you know!!! My favourite all time thread was when the site first opened and the really long time peas who had formed a night group got banned for ONE day for fooling around and posting porn or some such stuff. Chick pea was part of the group and she was hilarious. I loved reading her stuff. Sam was another who had the one day ban too. It was epic.

There are a few other dramas that come to mind -- "So there" when Stacy Julian accidentally clicked 'reply all' in an email and showed her ass. Also, someone hacking into the Garden Girls forum and copying/pasting naughty tidbits that were being thrown around about other members.

Thank you, imsirius It would have bugged me. Edit: I thought of another one: In the dying days of the old board, didn't they hire a new marketing guy who invited the scrapping Peas to send him pieces of "art" to decorate his office? Some sort of a competition with a small prize? I remember the thread got quite sharp with Peas asking if they were to put $$$ of Prima flowers on them in order to get $ back. The suggestions of artwork to send him got pretty graphic- the Hof was mentioned, I think . Did anybody actually send something in?

The porn was an accident. They linked pictures, and the websites they linked from had it set so if you linked them they reset to porn. It wasn't on purpose. :-)

LOL...I was smack in the midst of the craze of being published then and tried out for HOF a few times (before HOFGate). I remember it well because I was so disappointed to find out the contest was fixed from the get go. Also that thread, if memory serves me right, was almost 50 pages long before it was pulled. The late night thread sticks out in my mind because I had watched those night gals for years (never posted just lurked) and had so much fun with their antics. Another just stuck in my mind all these years thing.

Another just stuck in my mind all these years thing. I tried a couple times for HOF knowing full well (or assuming) that the contest was rigged. It had to be rigged. There was no way that the winners were so consistent with who was popular at the time and who was getting published. To be honest, I thought that even the whole getting published thing was rigged, by the magazines and the product manufacturers. It was so rare that someone just randomly got published for their work without an obvious pull to the hot product at that moment. I found the whole thing really distasteful and I was kind of glad when the industry imploded because it proved how fake the industry was getting.
