Good old Ghent and his "well the foo fighters are about as active".....LOL But then my redemption of course came in early 2015. What a moment to be a member of this board was. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am know I am gloating, but after years and years of just getting bashed that was some amazing vindication. You also said repeatedly for years that blink was dead and would never release another piece of music etc. etc. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually think I am the very first person on here to suggest that they fire Tom and replace him, and if I remember correctly, it was you who said that it was an insane idea. I wish I could find it. It is somewhere here in the archives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Kyle_ Posted December 9, 2016 Report Share Posted December 9, 2016 @Solace says Matt Skiba back in 2011. Anybody got an earlier suggestion? Also @Dylan, @CuteBilly182 and @ungroovy name Skiba. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was the one getting flamed over it. I've never considered it something to brag about. But if you're going to make up shit that isn't true, then I guess I will have to.

Sorry Ghent, I don't consider hypotheticals the same as a serious discussion that he should be replaced, and maybe I am wrong that you were the one who laughed at me over the "fire Tom" suggestion but it was one of the long time members. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Kyle_ Posted December 9, 2016 Report Share Posted December 9, 2016 I've been looking for a photo of blink and Matt Skiba hanging out from wayyyyy back when (it appears to only exist in my memory) and found this. He's wearing the same beanie as Tom was in 2002. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You cling to some odd ball memories, you have to admit. A few weeks ago you claimed that I was "obsessed" with Tom wearing lazer goggles or something. Found the thread from years ago and I made one sarcastic comment about them. But I understand how memories blur together and certain things stand out. I still remember random members from like 2004 that weren't even that "important." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

High Value Man Posted December 9, 2016 Report Share Posted December 9, 2016 There is something about Matt that I find creepy, not so much his appearance, but when he talks, I can't quite put my finger on what it is, but there is something odd. Not sure if anyone else thinks that too. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
