Title: Good Idea!
Post by: {AP} on November 15, 2008, 11:45:29 pm
Quote from: Good Idea!: Man Submits Drawing Of Spider Instead Of Payment For Overdue Account
David Thorne didn't have the $233.95 to pay an overdue account. So what did he do? What any other budding young genius would do, he submitted a picture of a spider he drew instead. Unfortunately, Jane Gilles, who is clearly a mega-bitch to the nth degree, wouldn't accept it. So what happened next? Hit the jump to find out. But I'll give you a hint: time travel! And also, David's account not getting paid.

You really want to read the rest, so hit it.

I'm still confused  ???  All the e-mails are in chronological order, and none of them mention anything that isn't stated in a future email.

Is that a clue or did you purposely spell 'here' wrong?

Any hints on what's 'flying over my head' as compensation for the extreme difficulties and confusions of your previous attempt at belittling my reasoning capabilities and outlining my lack of intelligence? :'(

Thanks... ;D

[edit]I've stared at this thing for a loooong time now.  It can't be ruined for me.  I'm slow when it comes to this stuff. ???
The only thing that I think could possibly be it is that he got an extra week to make a payment?

Nah, this was when we used Zetaboards for a while. I think there was a mod to have them on SMF but I never found it

Don't know if this counts as a necropost, but I still don't get it (apparently, I'm pretty slow :() Anyone want to bother to explain? There are spoilers now :)

Wow I think that's the first randomness topic ever posted on the new board (except the default SMF install welcome topic). Not sure anymore, though :P

Wow, I posted the first Randomness topic ever? Awesome~

What I get from the joke still is just how hilarious it is that someone tried to submit a crappy drawing as payment, had the banker email the picture back, told her that she must have emailed the wrong picture back, resubmitted a 'corrected' drawing in hopes of it being worth the amount he owed, and still got it back in the end. The whole situation is just hilarious to me.

The time travel reference was nothing but an automated response that he set up. (When you know you won't be able to respond to emails [like while on vacation], some systems let you set up an email that will automatically be sent to anyone who emails you.) No real time travel occurred and there's nothing special about the date of the last post.

What did he mean by that, though? ???

And by the way, found the guy's website (a bit NSFW): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oHg5SJYRHA0 (http://www.27bslash6.com/overdue.html)

EDIT: No, it's not a rickroll. I just used it for the text. Trust me ;D

I was linked to that one with 30+ million views so many times that when I see the beginning of the video ID, now I recognize the URL :P
