~*~ 33. Heroic Palmer ~*~

its sad how you dislike me when im one of the most likeable people on this board - Palmer on board politics.

Palmer was part of a new wave of users around the 2007 mark (dubbed the pop culture weirdo crew by me right now). These guys were mostly renowned for

- Not liking the contest despite posting on a contest message board.
- Posting mostly late at night.
- Not getting involved in drama, user contests, contest discussion or anything else that might be considered popular by the board.
- 90% of their post content discussing pop culture events, fast food and the quality of a girls ass.

If I were to describe the late night crew in an image, I think it'd be this one. external image

Palmer was seen as one of the more predominant people in this group because of his many endearing characteristics that made him popular amongst the rest of the community. He's generally very positive, usually humble and is the anti-serious hero just out for a good time.


Points of Impact

-> Credited with the creation of many strange fads and gimmicks. Between LARD, driving around in farms, notorious bad opinions, package discussion and fast food FAQs he's got quite a reputation in this area.
-> Winner of the 2010 character battle. Naturally something that should be a proud and joyous moment was turned into a whinefest by palmer.
-> Arguably the strongest user for creating small talking points, jokes or mini drama-sprees throughout the boards history. He never quite had any moments hit the highs of significance of others. But he certainly had the quantity and consistency of supply.


Notable Moment:

Palmer gained somewhat of a reputation for regular pity trips based on his constant put downs of himself. He was a guy who absolutely loved to wade in his own self pity and was quite often knee deep in it. No moreso than during his regular account closures and "leaving the board forever" moments. Were it not for MWIS, Palmer may very well win the prize for most whine capacity in board history.
