Share your weirdest net story..come on, y'all know ya have ONE

Since we are children of the cyber age, i thought we should share our weirdest experience with the internet. It can be anything from the oddest email you got, the strangest website, the oddest forum thread a ever saw/started/particpated in, the strangest chat combo/IM convo ya ever had.

Ive had more thana few so I'll start cause this occured to me today on my way to work.

I used to be a gamer; yes cue the nerd music. Like Dungeons and Dragons type of thing. Anyway this was back in my first year of college that this happened. Some random guy IMs me and asked me to rp with him (rp=role play but in gaming world its like writing out scenes-nothing kinky.. or at least its not supposed to be .)

Sinec I belonged to diff forums at the time I didn't think anythign weird about it and said sure. Whats the scene. I'm expectiing elves, wizards, the usual Tolkien stuff since in my profile I was a kick *** elvish chickie with blue hair. (yes I know NERD lmao but it was still the 90's!)

So he then proceeds to tell em that his character is a horse. Yes, you are all gaping the same way I was, maybe even giving your head a little scratch like 'horse?' Ok...so yes I know, hindsight, ten years later at 27 years of age I start shaking my head right away like Oh HELL NO. But back then I was 17 and never been kissed.

Anyway I tried to be openminded (cause hey here I was at the top of my class, a kinda cute girl and I was running around online being an elf; no real room to cast stones right?) and asked him more about it. Turns out the characters name was 'Black Beauty' (I sh*t you not) and he was a black stallion (of course) with a white star marking on his forehead.

I'm now grinning at the screen like, you've got to eb kidding me. He wasn't. So stillt trying to be open, I say let's play. So we starta nd honest to goodness his char is a horse; one who neighs, whinnies and asks his mistress for sugar cubes by rubbing her with his nose. This lasted for maybe 15 minutes before my younger self said said OH HELL NO as Mr. Blackie tried to...well...ya get the hint...

Marie I KNOW YOU get the hint lmao...

So yea I put him on my block list then disgusted sign off. A few days later under a diff name, guess who IMs me. I block him again. Since 1998, I have blocked him 10 times-he never knew it was me. He just randomly IMs women. I found this out after complaining ina forum and opening the floodgates lmao of women who went through the same thing. The guy is infamous. And still a horse apparently.

So that's my story...


Anyone else?

Wow. I don't think I can top that but I have had some very strange internet experiences over the years...

The first one that springs to mind is one of the first times I used the internet for research. It was senior year of high school and they were just starting to try to get us to recognize that the web was a good research tool. We were doing something about Greek mythology in English and we were each supposed to use the internet to find out more about a particular character. It was more about bringing in the resources you found online than about doing something with them - more an exercise in showing you knew where to look. Anyway, I got assigned Adonis. Go home that night, pull up whatever g-hetto search engine we used back then (on the dial-up...lol), and type in Adonis. Every single result was gay porn. And the links were not as helpfully identifying as they are today so I had to click on a bunch of them to get the hint. So not only did I wind up looking at some really crazy sh!t, but I also had to explain to my class (and my teacher, who definitely seemed interested in getting those links!!!!) why I had no results.

I'm sure I can think of more

LMAO that si CLASSIC!! Something simialr happened to my mom a few years ago when she went back to school and was doing a research paper on God knows what. She was new to using the net like many in her generation but she was determiend to do it and didn't want any help.

So I am in my room and she is in the foyer where the comp is. All of a sudeen I hear moaning and screeching.

The moaning was coming from the screen where these two guys and one gymnast turned porn girl were going at it. The screeching was comingf rom my other who was trying to cover her eyes (I kid ya not lmao) and hitting every button with her other hand, lmao tyring to turn off the volume and the screen. Of course it froze right there lmao but the sound still worked.

To this day we tease her about her 'hot net surfing days.' LMAO

Niiiice. I used to work with a sweet man about our parents' age who had this laptop that our agency assigned him. Every year he'd bring it in for service because it had completely gotten corrupted. The techs would always find all this really nasty porn on it. He was the complete opposite of that type so we couldn't figure it out and he was always MORTIFIED. Turns out he had been accidentally clicking on almost every pop up ad that appeared on the screen. Finally I think they slowed the mouse speed down and that solved the problem. Poor guy. Of course he could have been a secret kinky freak and none of us would have known...
