u were always flirting with me

Indeed, but it was a forbidden love, and the torment of it all made me stop posting. I'm not that upset you picked the scab off the wound, but putting it in your mouth and calling it "skin jerky" was maybe a little much.

You are missed on here.

Thanks, dukke! I still check a few forums a few times a week. Work, life, work, ad infinitum. Hope you're well, old friend.

Loved the Trough.

Thanks. I really appreciate that.

I loved it too, and then killed it. Out of love or something.

Not really...I keep the ol' server lights blinking: The Trough

He was a firefly in our sewer.
"Longtime" is fair. Everything else is relative. Especially relatives.
Equal: Ed Orgeron cast in multiple AFLAC commercials, with the storyline of him inserting the duck into the goat to make a goatducken, and cooking the writhing squealing mess entirely from the heat that radiated off his oiled skin and steely gaze.

Says the legend that inspired the Freek hisself.
Whoa, whoa, whoa...that's crazy talk.

I don't think Freek and I even belong in the same thread or on the same planet.

The Orgeron Recursion was my one foray into that then-mysterious medium of GIFs, and the highlight (other than his nipple wormholes) was the description of him as a "hypnotic oiled devil" - I'd say that was downright prescient.
Thanks, BillBobfan (and everyone else). It really was a blip of a thing and I'm humbled and appreciative that anyone even remembers it.

Wonder why he stopped


Short answer: life
Long answer: Between designing and coding the site, coming up with every concept, doing all the writing and graphics, and integrating that consistently into Troughness - week after week - became a lot. Some life happened, and then it wented away.

Never say never. Thanks again for the kind words.

KadronBOOOOONE as a comic book sound effect ftw.
I'll admit I'm pretty proud of that one. When I did it in that comic book font and saw how absurd and absurdly perfectly Trough it was, I LOL'ed.

1. How productive will you be?

On a scale of 1-10, I will be i (obviously), but double. Hell, square it.

2. How many times will you refresh TD?

I've taped a marble to F5. I like to think the clacking sound my hard drive is making is like the Tiger Band drumline warming up.

3. Placing curbside orders for game day eats (for those not going)?

Toasted boudin skin crumbles, cornstarch, and water to make what maw-maw called Delcambre Gum.

I'm ready, but unprepared.

Could be a triple entendre if it's done right.

Your summary is accurate. We probably know each other. Of all things I didn't think I'd know about it would be FETI and FETA, but I do.

And Chief Wallis is a good man. It was a difficult situation and he helped greatly in the transition.
TigerDroppings' longevity and more importantly its cultural impact are the result of an exceptionally rare combination of vision for what a sports board should be: irreverent but relevant, wild but not loose, clever but not contrived, and built to support the single GIF response and the thoughtful missive, and everything in between. It's been an honor to be a blip on the timescale, and have worked on everything from banner ads still in circulation and logos to nonsense like the Trough. Thanks, Chicken and krewe.

Eagle alum right here. Largely echo all sentiments.
Nearly a decade of Chicago winters made me welcome (well, not quite...but accept) Louisiana summers.

Beyond stinging wind and misery, there's something about the lushness here I didn't appreciate it until everything was cold and gray.

I would also welcome the opportunity to serve as an unbiased but critical source of product development, offering important insight and testing the boundaries of reasonable user experience.

For example, I do not (yet) see Boudin or Cracklin CANs. You're welcome, GOAT.
I encourage you to start a Coach Chris Chuck Norris website.
