Ok, so who is she, really? I think there should be a lot of clues lying around this board to figure it out. I'm staying out of this from here on out, being that I actually know kuru in real life.

So have at it!

as long as it is just the guys in the white coats and not the guys in the black camo.

Is this kuru?


Posted by nautilus on Oct. 03 2000,18:47
Umm not quite. I know both Observer and Kuru in real life, so I won't say too much either. I will say though that a lot of people seem to have some opinions of who she is and isn't that are way off base.
Posted by pengu1nn on Oct. 03 2000,19:03

Hey Observer,

Are you one of her friends with benefits? Hahaha... Ok, maybe that's only funny to me.

And now I'm sure to get reamed by the easily excited one....

i think it's only fair that i leave this thread alone. i'm obviously far too biased to post.

but jim, just for the record, Observer's mentioned a few times that he has a girlfriend.

why does anyone really care?

Whats the point?


Posted by darksol on Oct. 03 2000,19:47
not that im trying to put down kuru, its just that why find out who she is and what shes like if the chances of you meeting her are amazingly slim.

I'm not from TN, but I had a 3 hour layover in Memphis once. It was the worst 3 hours of my life.

im from VA, and everyone thinks im a hick because of it. and im not suprised, considering movies like remember the titans. the movie starts off "In Virginia, football is more important than Christmas." WTF????? ive lived here all my life and have yet to attend a football game. and for the record, people in northern VA DO NOT HAVE SOUTHERN ACCENTS. everyone in that movie had one, and i have never met a person who grew up in alexandria who had one. sorry, while we were talkign about where we were from, i felt the need to vent...

on subject, i think kuru is just one of those AIs made by the government to distract the people at times of unrest, which is why she goes rants about things, it distracts us from the truth. that or she just likes to rant...

i learned about kuru in a class i took once in college where i had to study medical terms and diseases. the whole idea of cannibalism stuck in my mind, most specifically that there were some diseases that people could only get by eating the undercooked brains of other people.

yes, i know i am a sick and twisted bitch.... and i like it that way

well I'd think that this post from the 'nicks' thread would give some help to who she is once depending on how you interpret it, or at least how she perceives herself

I'd venture a way out guess that she probably has 1, _maybe_ 2 Frank Zappa records as well! heh heh

im def down with finding out some more about kuru. i dont want to sound like an asshole here, but i feel somewhat responsible for sparking some of this interest in her. not all, but some. maybe im wrong. anyways, like ive said in many posts before, i want to see some pics of kuru real soon. and i wouldnt mind being one of her friends with benefits if it turns out that she is hot, which is my theory.

That's funny as hell! I love the recursive masterbate call! Starts using up 100\% of CPU time, nothing really gets accomplished, and it ends when your stack overflows.

that reminded me of a joke i made once about a guy i knew named steve...we were learning do-while loops.

do{
kill(steve);
}while(steve != dead);

and i just kept saying "do kill steve while steve not dead." and everyone kept cracking up....now that i look back, it wasnt that funny though...

It's a western Pa thing, mostly around Pittsburgh, officially spelled 'yinz'.

i am not entirely sure who she is, but i am the person who stand outside her window at night while she changes. er..i mean..nevermindigottago...
Posted by Alarion on Oct. 06 2000,15:02
Hmm, I am from Virginia as well... no accents here. (Tidewater/Hampton Roads area).. now go up north a tiny bit up in Lancaster and they have some "country" accents...

I say "ya'll" all the time... but it's more like "Hey guys, where ya'll wanna go eat?"

Hehe

Speaking of accents...
I live in Tucson, AZ. Not one person here has an accent (except my coworker from Texas). Even black people don't have an inner city twang. It's creapy, actually, until you remember that everybody living here moved in from Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, etc...
