Yeah, so I haven't been here for a while, and I guess everyone jumped ship, but damn this new place looks nice. Anyways, I was in NY on Monday, and I went to one of those crazy fashion parties, so here you go, enjoy as I rubbed elbows with the rich, famous, and assholes.

It should be the one that says MJ '06 show.
-
Heh, that's pretty funny. I like your drunk pictures.
And yes, this is our official home now. Scott and Antares have been working on the boards here for a while (with a little help from cools here and there, I think), and so here we are after many months of waiting. It is better.
-
Well if it isn't Mr. Fancy Pants.
-
Fuck yeah Idol. Remember, I'm kind of a big deal.
-
You got a lock of Lean Rymes' hair for me, right?
-
DUDE YOU HUNG WITH GHOSTFACE KILLAH!
YOU SUCK!
-
HOLY SHIT. POSH SPICE! DID YOU RAPE HER?
-
Liv Tyler is fat.
-
I remember your crazy celeb pictures from before as well. What the heck do you do? How do you get invited? Do you want to steal stuff for me to sell on ebay?
Wait.. that last question was supposed to be a PM.
-
who's hxceddie?
-
who's hxceddie?
I can't remember if he had the same exact name on AOG but he was the guy with the Punisher avatar I believe if that rings any bells.
-
he had a different name!!
didn't liv tyler have a baby recently?
-
yeah, I used to be easyed69 back in the glory days....but I never really posted that much to begin with, so it's not hard to see that I'm overlooked.
I don't really do anything crazy for work. I'm a doorman at a fashion store. I say hi to people and make sure they don't steal stuff. It's cool because they fly us out to fashion week and stuff, which is a huge perk of the job.
-
Cool! What fashion store?
-
Thats cool. There were some pretty big-name celebrities there. The only celebrity that I have ever met is Stewart Scott from ESPN's Sportscenter. I felt like I was on the show when he talked.
-
Only celebrities I've ever met aren't really celebrities. I met Chuck Billy from Testament once, and that's about as close as it gets. I hate famous people, generally speaking. Most of my heroes aren't too well known.
-
I saw the entire band "Sixpence None the Richer" petting rabbits in the rabbit barn at my county fair once. Thats about as close to a famous person Ive been.
-
I used to see them all the time before anybody had even heard of them. Used to do all kinds of Christian shows around here and Socal back in the day. Then they got some song that everybody loved, and it was off to stardom.
-
Didn't they do that song "Kiss me" ?
-
Yeah. And the cover of "There She Goes" or whatever it's called.
-
Nice to see you and awesome pictures
I have a couple pictures of me chilling with Chuck Norris when I was like 11. Aparently he was filming a movie here and met my dad and a friend of his in some bar. He invited them to come onto the set (fine, the movie was 'Hitman') and hang out for a bit and my dad brought me. Chuck Norris is cool, but his brother (I think) the stuntman with the broken nose was way cooler. Little did I know that he'd one day be popular on the internet.
as a funny side note, almost the exact same thing happend with my dad and the same friend meeting Emilio Estevez and Richard Dreyfus at a bar while they were here filming Another Stakeout. Aparently they all got sitfaced and my dad and his buddy got a ride home in thier limo...they then went out drinking a few more times while they were here. Too bad I was away for the summer or else I could have met Emilio and set him on a better career path.
-
For some reason I always confuse Emilio with Judd Nelson.
-
This thread reminds me that I should scan those photos sometime I have from different sci fi conventions where I met some of the Star Wars actors.
-
I met Corey Feldman from the Goonies. He was an okay guy.
-
Well, I can trump you all.
I met PyroMenace! (http://www.overwritten.net/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=19)

I've never actually met a celebrity, unless you count George Foster who was an old Cincinnati Reds great. I didn't even know who he was until afterwards.
I was also in very close proximity to Al Snow twice. He was/is a professional wrestler. The first time, an ex-girlfriend an I were checking into Red Roof Inn outside Chicago. These two dudes behind us went up to the guy in front of us and were talking to him. After he checked in, the guys were like, "Holy shit! Do you know who that was? That was Al Snow! That wrestler guy with the mannequin head!" I was like, "Oh really? I didn't know. I don't watch wrestling, but I've heard my brother mention the mannequin head before."
The second time I was near him was when there was some reality show where this bunch of guys were trying to become pro wrestlers. I think it was on MTV. Apparently the show was filmed in Cincinnati because there is some wrestling school here. Whatever. Well, a different ex girlfriend and I were at Dave & Busters. People kept coming up to the booth next to us and talking to some guy, and I overheard one of them say, "You're Al Snow, right?"
I thought that was wierd I was in such close proximity to the same celebrity twice, especially in two different cities.
-
haha you nearly met Al Snow?
After he checked in, the guys were like, "Holy shit! Do you know who that was? That was Al Snow! That wrestler guy with the mannequin head!" I was like, "Oh really? I didn't know. I don't watch wrestling, but I've heard my brother mention the mannequin head before."
By mannequin head, he doesn't mean Al Snow's head looks like a mannequins'. He actually carried a mannequin head around as a gimmick.

That is very odd. Next time it happens, go up to him and say,"Look dude. I don't even watch wrestling. Why are you stalking me?"
Also tell him his finisher sucks. They love hearing that.
-
Celebs? Hmm . . . not much to speak of. Raul Julia (may he RIP) was my mother's cousin. I met him backstage at the Teatro Tapia in San Juan, PR before he was a celeb. I almost ran into Al Sharpton once, literally, on the sidewalk by Fountain Square in Cincinnati. He was headed off a limo to the square, and I was walking by. Near-collision. :)
-
Well, Raul Julia trumps all that trash in those parties by a mile, so you've faired better.
I only have one blind person story. My dad and I were waiting in an airport terminal for my brother to come back from Japan. This was way back before 9/11 and you could actually wait in the terminal. It was fairly late, so it wasn't too busy either. After a few minutes we noticed that Ray Charlies was just sitting there a couple benches over reading something in braillel.I wandered around a little and managed to see the cover when he turned the page. It was Playboy... for the blind. Freaking awesome.
-
Raul Julia was your mum's cousin? Wow.

haha that is a good story. But how does that work aside from the articles?
-
Brings new meaning to the term bump-mapping.

I realize that. I guess I worded it wrong in my post. :P
-
I've really got nothing...
I've met the bass player for Zebrahead on a couple occasions when they were playing shows in town. Royce Gracie at a Jiu-Jitsu seminar, I actually train at the same gym as one of the guys from season 3 of Next Ultimate Fighter, and that about covers it.
-
I realize that. I guess I worded it wrong in my post. :P
haha no by he I didn't mean your bro. I meant you... I was explaining to the other posters. :P
-
Sorry, I haven't been around in a while. I saw earlier someone asked where I work, and just to let you know I work at Marc Jacobs. I don't really care for the clothes, but apparently I tell girls I work there and they flip their shit.
And goddamn, GPW, I would give anything to meet Chuck Norris.....you lucky bastard.
-
you would? hmm.. my dad and uncle are friends with him.. they shared martial arts.
-
AHHHHHH!!!!! WHAT THE HELL!!!!! I need to meet Chuck Norris immediatley!!!!!
