August 13, 2004. I enter a "teen chat" and pick one of the guys saying "IM ME IF YOU WANT TO TALK TO A 14/M PLZ" or whatever, and start a conversation.

garyzerosixthree: hi

garyzerosixthree: im using my bfs yahoo ^_^
parklane20002000: lol cool

This guy is so boring. I'm trying desperately to get him into a conversation.
I notice his little animated avatar, as seen here:


garyzerosixthree: heh that cartoon pic is kinda creepy
garyzerosixthree: it keeps raising its eyebrows at me
parklane20002000: lol

garyzerosixthree: dont remember. i was like 10
parklane20002000: lol cool
garyzerosixthree: my mom was trying to drive me to the place they filmed field of dreams. it was lame

Fun fact: My parents
did, in fact, take me to that place. But it was just a stopover on the way to a resort.
They didn't drive all the way to Iowa from Ontario to see cornfields.


parklane20002000: lol
garyzerosixthree: i remember we got pulled over, my mom flirted with the cop and we didn't get a ticket
garyzerosixthree: she told me never to do that
garyzerosixthree: my dad was really pissed when he found out lol

Oh, yeah. I'm supposed to be 14 . . .
Okay, let's try to go with it.

garyzerosixthree: i grew early. people make fun of me

garyzerosixthree: ack
garyzerosixthree: im getting the chair all wet, just a second
parklane20002000: k
parklane20002000: wouldnt ur bf be madd if ur talkin to me

Now that I've given just a hint that I seem to have a tinge of violent tendencies, I decide it's time to bring things up a notch.
At this point I leave for about five minutes or so.

I come back:

garyzerosixthree: oh no
garyzerosixthree: damnit how do i disconnect
garyzerosixthree: my bf slipped
garyzerosixthree: hes bleeding
garyzerosixthree: i need to call someone but im on dialup

garyzerosixthree: he like walked in and started yelling stuff and there was some water
garyzerosixthree: oh jeez
garyzerosixthree: hes starting to get up

parklane20002000: hey i got to go
garyzerosixthree: i think he broke his leg
garyzerosixthree: crap
garyzerosixthree: like i can see the bone sticking out
garyzerosixthree: i dont know how to disconnect this thing
garyzerosixthree: help me
parklane20002000: just turn off computer
garyzerosixthree: its not working
garyzerosixthree: hes yelling stuff im confused
garyzerosixthree: i think he's unconcious

At this point, he's already gone.
