Eric Conveys an Emotion

April 18, 2003 6:37 PM

Eric Conveys an Emotion. Not just the easy ones like fear, annoyance, and did I leave the oven on?, but also the universal states of the human condition: realizing Dan Quayle is your father, the blue screen of death, caught downloading naughty pictures, erectile dysfunction. Requests cheerfully accepted.

Well, after 24,000+ more posts, I think that it cycles back from "double post" to "Hey, neat, I haven't seen that in forever!" Also, fans of emotioneric.com should also check out Robot Frank.

It's classics week on Mefi! I love the classics. It's important to expose the youngsters to the canon.

And of course, it is similar to the ever amazing and beautiful, ExplodingDog.com., the birthplace of many a desktop wallpaper.

IraqFilter! Oh, wait.

Actually, I agree with UKnowForKids...I missed it the first time around, and it's a pretty funny site, so I'm glad it got "recycled."

But damn...poor WetSpot...to be smacked down by Uncle Matt himself. But it was done gently, so all is well.

And I can't help but notice...this FPP has garnered more responses than the original...surely this is a good sign, yes?

I hadn't seen it before either. It made me smile. :)

In fairness to the original post, there were a whopping 274 metafiltarians at the time, so as a percentage of total members....

Cat-Scan.com is one of the strangest sites I've seen in some time. I have no idea how these people got their cats wedged into their scanners, or why.

I'm quite proud that Eric and I graduated from the same international college prep program. Perhaps I too will be famous for doing silly things on the internet. Hmm.

I wear the welts from the Matt with pride. Kind of like the celebrity of making Nixon's enemies list.
