I wonder what happened to mr IRC friends… At this point I can’t even remember their usernames.

Chetzemoka, in Feeling old yet?

ICQ > IRC

Yes, I’m that exact age.

I had an icq too. I have a fun anecdote about it : I lived in small village in the countryside in France and someone from Mexico contacted me, because one of their cousin lived in my village. They gave me their email and I brought it to my friend.

Chetzemoka,

Man, the early Internet was so cool

It was a big village back then. People wished you welcome when you visited their page, with their collection of kitch gifs.

Now it’s just a giant shopping center…

Does Discord have trivia bots? That’s my main IRC memory.

Maybe it isn’t as fun in an age of Wikipedia and highly effective search engines.

Kidplayer_666,

With the amount of ads, effective search engines will soon be a thing of the past!

brb,

It does. There’s also card collecting games and other stuff like that

I put a bunch of effort once actually getting my eggdrop bot (with trivia) on discord. It worked fairly well but all the questions were made in the 90s so it wasn’t as fun for the larger age range in our server lol.

IRC is still around. I have mIRC on my desktop.

dejected_warp_core, in Feeling old yet?

Please enlighten me internet boomers.

Basically this (Discord), but faster, with more text and no images. And without the looming threat of eventual enshitification.

It’d be a 30-minute episode at this point.

What what, who who, dare dare, called OUR FAIR LADY A HO, HO?!

Book 1: The Wrath of Bombadil

It’s twenty pages long of pure natural fury, roots choking goblins and orcs and storms of lightning exploding Sauron’s towers.

There are no further volumes.

GaMEChld, in Not a bad idea

I think this video explored Tom v Sauron, and if not this video, the other Tom Bombadil video by same channel.

This got me confused

Why didn’t just Tom wear the Ring as he makes passionate love with his wife, so he can force Sauron to watch.

Sauron, who is a virgin, who never had a gf and was dismembered and reduced to a giant eye by a fucking human would realize he is nothing compared to Tom, whose girth is beyond even Eru Ilúvatar’s comprehension.

Wishing to die but unable to kill himself as he doesn’t even have a fucking hand to pull the trigger, he would order his orc armies to piss on him, so that the flames of his eye can be extinguished and his mind can be set free of Tom’s all encompassing girth. His spirit would be released to the boundless void that ripples and contorts with Tom’s mighty thrusts and he would find no solace.

When Tom thrusts his final thrust and shoots a billion Bombadillos deep into Goldberry’s loins, the impact would shatter Sauron’s soul into a billion Saurodillos and he would be free. When this happens, not even the wisest can tell.

this is probably one of the strangest LOTR fics I’ve seen

Pringles,

Where is it stated he was a virgin? He used to be able to change his appearance at will. Pretty sure he got laid with every sentient species in Middle earth and probably some non-sentient as well.

DragonTypeWyvern,

He did get left on read by Galadriel, so it’s certainly possible if he tried at all, but there’s also nothing to say he did other than that.

But he is a demon-analogue so anything goes. Asexual being? Sure. Hypersexual being? Also sure.

OpenPassageways, in Not a bad idea

Excluding Tom Bombadil from the movies was a really good adaptation decision. His existence waters down the power of the one ring.
