I think it's funny when we'll be out or something and someone will mention something that we were talking about on here and no one will ever say "The Wolf Web" out loud.

They'd just mouth the words or something. It's like being back in elementary school and being afraid to say the word sex so you would just spell it out S-E-X!

"a bunch of us were having a discussion about something on tww once night at Biofreak70's house....

there were probably 8-10 of us (TKE you know) at the table that were on tww and one random person....

so we were sort of talking in code and if tww had to be mentioned I just called it "the nerd web" or "that thing we don't mention"....

poopface comes in and says "oh God...I can't believe you people are talking about that here"...

I said "oh shut up...it's not like everybody in the room isn't on it...well except her" and i pointed at random person....

then she said "you're talking about the wolf web aren't you?"

i said, "yeah....we're all on there...how do you know about it?"

she started laughing and said "i've got you all beat.....i'm a MODERATOR ""



lol!!

umm, my brother is on here, but he doesn't post much, sometimes he'll just get online and lurk the tdub for a while.

other than that, I don't think anyone I know IRL knows I'm on tdub.

I don't really talk to anyone from tww, so that solves the whole issue.

oh lord

talking about goings on of TWW is a downhill fight - unless they're internetized, and understand lolcats, stupid flash videos, rickrolled, etc

I wonder if an epic chalking of campus would do anything for the site.

if it comes up in conversation i say its a student run nc state messaging board


it was kinda awkward when i was looking at tdub and my professor came in and goes 'the wolf web...what is that?' and i had to explain it. i said that it helps with keeping in touch with the raleigh scene and to talk about sports

A good chalking and freedom tunnel painting would bring in some new meat...

The question is whether they'd get scared off. Now that EUPHALO is dead, it might actually keep some

"Especially outside of NC. Always a tricky one, especially when those people you don't really know in real life IM you and act like your friend but aren't really.

Conversation as follows
him "Who you talking to? (on AIM)"

me: "....a friend"

him: "I gathered that but who?"

me: "uh her name's....(starts to say tdub screen name) err...stephanie!"

him: "You don't know her name?"

Me:


especially.

Hey!

That was me!
