Anyone ever spot a Boardsie randomly?

I'm 90% sure I've seen Karl Hungus in Fibbers a couple of times, unless it's one of his afformented doppelgangers.

I've never seen any boardsies randomly but then again I never spend too much time checking out KYN so for all I know I could be seeing them everyday!!

Haha.

Well, someone who really looks like him frequents Fibbers then.

chuci · 12-04-2008 11:42AM

feylya · 12-04-2008 11:50AM

after a boards beers, i was in town with a mate (who oddly, i met up with from another message board, and turned out the friends of his i met with were boardsies, god, this is a small country), but a boardsie recognised me, took a picture on his phone, and sent it to one of his boardsie mates, who then texted me to let me know what'd just happened....

that one was a lil weird.

Yep. And I still have that photo somewhere... I think he was just concerned that he didn't spot the monkey with you at the time.

Aye, the quite large chap? I thought he might've been him the first time I saw him. Me and another boardsie friend refer to him as "hungus", although I think we've spoken to him once.

On topic, I see Willburt in Fibbers occasionally, then a few weeks ago he spotted me outside Subway in the IFSC and we had a yap, that was odd.

And I once thought I saw Monkeyfudge outside clontarf Dart station, PM'd him about it but it wasn't him

Yeah. I seem to have a few doppelgängers running about out there.

AckwelFoley · 12-04-2008 02:12PM

No, i cant say ive ever seen a boardsie randomly.

Its unlikely ive ever been spotted.

I only come out at night.. and im wearing a balaclava and carrying a roll of duck tape and a stanley knife.

Adam · 12-04-2008 02:12PM

Incidentally, when will the next beers be??

12-04-2008 02:15PM

I was served by a girl in Claires Accessories whose tattoo I recognised from a thread in the Body Mods forum.

Also I was leaving this Chinese in Parnell Street a couple of weeks ago, and overheard the conversation of a couple there OBVIOUSLY talking about Boards.ie, discussing the Personal Issues forum among other things. He sounded a bit Northern/Donegal/Monaghan and she sounded American and was eating sweet and sour battered chicken and rice. Who are you?

:D

cormie · 12-04-2008 02:17PM

I drove by Conundrum and Mrs Doyle, I know where they live:pac: I saw Tar at a party but only realised it was him after!

connundrum · 12-04-2008 04:34PM

/puts for sale sign outside house.

Not again! Fcukin stealth mode fails :pac:

I haven't spotted anyone in ages, but I've a tendency to walk around with the eyes closed.

Lockstep · 12-04-2008 06:13PM

Met TristanC at a Dropkick Murphys gig.

We went to Burgerking afterwards too.

Ah the memories.

Ah very good, just built a website for the fella, that's an excuse to show up right?

cormie · 12-04-2008 06:37PM

I'm providing the transport for that night too (for the equipment that is) for free because it's a charity event too:pac: Whether I'll be at the actual event is another question, I have another job that night anyway!

Terry · 12-04-2008 06:48PM

I know a few people have spotted me about the place because they have posted about it here, but I can honestly say there are only one or two people I would recognise if I was to pass them on the street.

I never remember faces.

I never made a point of finding out what people here look like and even if I did I probably would not recognise you. In general a face is not enough for me to recognise somebody. I'd need to know what you sounded like too.

Mrs_Doyle · 12-04-2008 07:13PM

I've bumped into CSG a few times, and I saw xzanti on the bus once.

emeraldstar · 12-04-2008 07:20PM

See a couple round UCD from time to time. That's it.

humbert · 12-04-2008 07:23PM

Bumped into jessjess at a party, or someone purporting to be jessjess.

Collie D · 12-04-2008 07:25PM

Have seen one guy from Boards in my local Tesco. He just mentioned that he worked there once and I checked his pic on Know Your Nerds and spotted him a few days later. Can't remember his name though. Thought of saying to him more than once when he served me but didn't want people to know I was a nerd.

Know two others but they were friends beore I discovered Boards - actually the gf introduced me to it. The other, just came up in conversation one day but he's not a regular poster.

Live near Des F as well as he's mentioned the area and buses in his posts before. No idea what he looks like though so possibly stand beside him at the bus stop every morning.

Dudess · 12-04-2008 07:28PM

I could have spotted Pighead since I lived in Phibsborough, as did (does?) he. And Phibsborough's quite a small place.
