Justin, as much as I'd love to explain what it means, in the broader sense, for you to enjoy wearing sweatpants formerly belonging to your wife (whose legal status is somewhat dubious, given your Team FUN! contract), I'm afraid the image has traumatized me to the point of incoherence.

No, not incoherence, the other thing. Vomiting.


with love from Judah - Drinking to forget

 
Sunday, November 18, 2001                    
What does it mean if I suddenly enjoy wearing womens' sort-of-tight-yet-loose sweatpants? More importantly, what does it mean if I fit comfortably into a pair of womens' sort-of-tight-yet-loose sweatpants?

with love from Justin - The Mrs. let me wear 'em, my legs were cold.

Nick, do you think that is bad? My roommate plays the same six shitty songs in a row day in and day out. Most are more or less by Nelly. He even listens to them while watching television. Two media at once! Can anyone beat that?

with love from Jeff - Martin Lawrence makes me want to forfeit religion

Just read that name below this line, right down there. It says it all.

with love from Nick - My roommate still doesn't know who John Digweed is

I think it was something about broccoli. I didn't quite catch it either.

with love from Todd - ...yeah, broccoli, that's it

You heard the man.

with love from Floyd - Don't make him repeat himself.

 
Tuesday, November 13, 2001                    
Say again?

with love from Peter - I'm sorry?

CARROTS!!!

with love from Nick - You heard me

 
Monday, November 12, 2001                    
Though I think it would be funny to declare this National Team FUN! Posting week or whatever and then not post, I shall pay my dues anyway. You know since there is this giant scare about flying and the like after the recent events? Wouldn't you think that I could get a decent price on a plane ticket to go out to Portland? I would have thought so, but I am coming up empty. So, I shall delegate my powers to others. The person coming up with the cheapest rate from Grand Rapids, MI to Portland, OR and e-mails it to me at jeff@forcegravity.com shall receive a hand chosen prize! I promise, a prize! Perhaps even a grab bag of prizes. I have a pink slap bracelet and unlimitted amounts of money!

with love from Jeff - Now everyone has a job!

 
Monday, November 12, 2001                    
Todd, I am officially hiring you as my personal assistant. However, you have violated the dress code and I am writing you up.

Also, I think it is really nice that the University of Central Florida is celebrating the beginning of International Team FUN! Start Posting Regularly Again Week by giving it's students a day off. Kudos UCF, kudos.


with love from Justin - Or is today Veterans Day or something?

 
Sunday, November 11, 2001                    
Well, all I know is I've now been 25 for approximately 19 months. Feels weird.

How about Team FUN! Members Find Cool Jobs For Other Team FUN! Members Week first? Then we can talk about the other thing.


with love from Todd - muffin man

 
Sunday, November 11, 2001                    
I think the ages on the "Meet Team FUN!" page need to be updated. Isn't Stuart, like, 30 now? And hasn't Jeff joined AARP? And aren't I approximately 19.8 years old, and in fact not exactly 19? This all saddens me. In light of the egregious mis-management of this web site, I have lost the will to live.

You'd figure that I'd learn the next day to come in to work at the proper time by accidentally coming in an hour early the day before, but no. I arrived an hour late, because my mind was so irrevocably miswired that I abandoned the ability to consider my work schedule with any kind of proper organization. I have since been written up.

In conjunction with Team FUN! Members Begin Posting Again Week, I would like to propose Team FUN! Members Get Written Up At Their Jobs Week. Who's with me!?


with love from Nick - This is to stave boredom

Simon is dead. Long live Simon.

Look! Cookies!

Tuesday, November 6, 2001                    
Officially, no. Your post is "writer", and so you don't have the authority to create theme weeks.

However, on your personal authority as a Southern Belle... well, things get hazy. I suggest to other Team FUN! members that they just toe the line. Things could get ugly if you cross Miss Scarlet there.


with love from Judah - Looking for a loophole now

 
Tuesday, November 6, 2001                    
As a Southern Belle, I do declare next week, the week of November 11-18, "International Team FUN! Start Posting Regularly Again Week." So don't ask questions and hop on the bandwagon, it is time for some mass genocide!...damn, I meant posting! POSTING!

with love from Jeff - Do I have the authority to do this?

 
Friday, November 2, 2001                    
On location at Stu's dorm room, I am using my one time travel usage to post a HAPPY 18th BIRTHDAY STU!!!!!! message. Hey Stu, have fun buying porn and cigarettes!

with love from Jeff - I didn't forget!

WELL WHICH IS IT, JUDAH? YOU MUSCLE-BOUND FOOL! 15 OR 16??? YOU HAVE ME CONFUS-ED!

with love from Adam - never double posts

Well, it took me nine months, but I finally collected all 16 Team FUN! trading cards.

Saiban Daisukai: get me on Team Fun
justinblaix: i can't, they aren't accepting new members
Saiban Daisukai: son of a bitch
Saiban Daisukai: but Nickd's zit gets on eh?
Saiban Daisukai: Discrimination


with love from Justin - My zits never get to post.

 
Wednesday, October 24, 2001                    
I'd like to introduce another member to Team FUN!'s illustrious staff.

Introducing: nickd's new zit, Simon! Simon, wave hi to everyone!
(huge zit on nickd's nose, herafter named Simon, waves hi to everyone)
Now do a dance, Simon!
(Simon gets up and does a jig)

Simon will be here to post with everyone over the course of the next three days while he wreaks bloody murder all over nickd's face. Isn't it great how nickd's grievous misfortune is always at your gain?


with love from Nick - Taken as the constant and normal

 
Saturday, October 20, 2001                    
I cannot believe I was the only sick SOB to think about doing this:



with love from Todd - too soon?

 
Monday, October 15, 2001                    
Well, I did die, or so I assume because seeing Travis perform in the Michigan Theatre was just heaven! Follow that up with the U of M homecoming game vs. Purdue in the Big House, and my weekend was perfect.

with love from Jeff - Get it?!? Heaven?!?

 
Sunday, October 14, 2001                    
I would like to rise from beyond the grave - again - to inform the clientele of this web site of the following important fact:

FRIEND BEAR IS BACK UP, AND BOY DOES HE HAVE MAD ATTITUDE.

Who is Mary Jones?


with love from Nick - RUDY DISCO MELTDOWN

 
Friday, October 12, 2001                    
Actually, I didn't die. I must have survived this catasrop..................

with love from Adam - ... moments before he died too.

 
Wednesday, October 10, 2001                    
And then, one cool october day, everyone on team fun died.

with love from floyd - moments before he died

 
Friday, October 5, 2001                    
Althought Adam is not so fond of showing his genitals, I found someone today - quite by accident, I assure you - who, sadly, was. There was another poster sale going on in the "yard" behind Johnstone, and I had a few minutes so I was flipping through them. Betwixt Bruce Lee and The Godfather, there was this black and white poster of Keanu Reeves on the beach. Toweling off.

But, you see, the towel was in the wrong place, and by gods there was no fabric to be seen 'tween the camera and that horrible, horrible place.

Let us never speak of this again.


with love from Peter - Just... ugh

 
Thursday, October 4, 2001                    
What of my genitalia?? You must have Judah's genitalia, Jeff. I still have mine right here.. I took a picture to prove it!

with love from Adam - Giving you what you all want need.

 
Thursday, October 4, 2001                    
Boy, one mention of Adam's genitalia and the whole site comes to a halt.

with love from Jeff - Sorry guys

 
Monday, October 1, 2001                    
Also, Adam, I have your reproductive organs. I checked around, and it seems you don't need them back, so I also took three packages of Ramen Noodles, which I will return at the price of three million lire.

with love from Jeff - Full of malice and hate....and puppies

 
Friday, September 28, 2001                    
Work began with classes last Monday. I work in a computer lab. I get paid to fix paper jams and do homework. So far, there have been no paper jams.

I'm at work right now, but the door is locked, and I can't open it, so I'm typing this in another adjacent computer lab. I doubt they really care, since it's approaching closing time anyway. The door is locked, and it's not like anyone is going to come in and steal a bunch of P3-600 machines.

Have you ever noticed how people will be kept in the dark on an obnoxiously important issue because nobody else wants to claim responsibility for having divulged any information related to it? Yeah, I hate that.

Adam: I have your cat. If you want it back, leave a million dollars under the big suspended net in the park.


with love from Nick - Typed this post eighteen times in his head

 
Tuesday, September 25, 2001                    
I will marry Judah when the A's win the World Series. Incidentally, we can hold our reception in a frozen hell.

with love from Jeff - Puff daddy is such an inadequate rapper

 
Monday, September 24, 2001                    
I can't marry Judah...I'm married to the sea, remember?

with love from Alex - we were registered at Target too.

 
Saturday, September 22, 2001                    
Which reminds me -- which one of yous missed tha ceremony? You needs to get hitched to da judah befo it's 2 late!

with love from Adam Nielsen - Where the hell were you?

 
Saturday, September 22, 2001                    
You guys obviously haven't seen the updated contract. To be a member of Team FUN!, it is actually a requirement to be married to Judah Nielsen. Don't worry, though, Adam took care of the whole thing with a mass ceremony late last month.

with love from Todd - We were registered at Target

 
Friday, September 21, 2001                    
No, I'm sorry Jeff. I edited double checked the contract and it clearly states that it is a violation to "be married to Judah Nielsen." Something about conflicts of interest.

with love from Justin - I guess Adam has to go.

 
Thursday, September 20, 2001                    
You know, nowhere in the Team FUN! contract does it say that members aren't allowed to post...

That was a hint. You know who you are.

This morning, I dropped a pencil on the floor of the Science Wing in my high school. I reached down and picked it up, but then I reailzed my hand was covered in HUMAN HAIR! HAIR OF ALL COLORS AND TEXTURES AND LENGTHS. Oh, the horror.

On the bright side, I can probably clone everyone in my school now using the DNA from their own hair. I'll raise all the clones to worship me, then slowly being replacing the "normal" students with the clones.

I'm not sure what that will accomplish, but it should kill some time.

with love from Alex - oh no, the top of my head is covered in human hair!

 
Wednesday, September 19, 2001                    
Doesn't being married breach Article VIII, Section XXI of the Team FUN! contract?

with love from Jeff - Goin' to the chapel.......

 
Sunday, September 16, 2001                    
Thanks, Adam! Sorry I had to tell you all that cockamamie story about my cable modem, but I felt it was best in light of the real circumstances surrounding my disappearance.

Anyway, Anne and I are doing great, and we'd like to thank everyone for all of the wonderful wedding gifts they sent. Anne does wish Ellen had attended the service, or at least RSVP'ed, just for closure's sake. But married life has done wonders for me... and for her as well, no matter what you may have seen on TV. And everyone's invited over next weekend for a housewarming barbecue! Please bring your own Ecstacy and paper plates.


with love from Todd - Oh, the little woman says hi!

 
Sunday, September 16, 2001                    
I have a box of chocolates, and I'm eating them. Someone stop me!

I'd like to be the first to formally welcome Todd back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That is all.

with love from Adam - CHOCOLATE!!!!

 
Wednesday, September 12, 2001                    
I used to think headphones were like my own little fortress of solitude, until one day, when I was wearing them, a foreign woman with a guitar tapped me on the shoulder. She wanted to play a tune and see if I 'recognized it'.

Now I know the ticket is flagrant leprosy.


with love from Judah - It was "Camptown Races"

 
Wednesday, September 12, 2001                    
So I learned something FUN! today dealing with headphones. I apparently think nobody can see me when I wear them. Today I just started dandcing to the Black Crowes in the middle of campus not realizing anybody would notice. I got some pretty odd looks, but I was having fun. That must be how Adam always feels.

with love from Jeff - Get ur freak on

 
Monday, September 10, 2001                    

Happy Biz-irthday, Jeff!!

That said, I hope Jeff enjoys his birthday in typical Dutch style - plenty of bad beer and cheap women. Here's to you, Jeff.


with love from Stuart - Enjoying hazelnut coffee in the honor

 
Monday, September 10, 2001                    
I wish I could change the font to make a giant Happy Birthday greeting to myself like Adam. Therefore, I delegate my powers to anyone else.

with love from Jeff - Can't somebody else do it?

 
Saturday, September 8, 2001                    
Yes, I was dead, but I was brought back to life through events too outrageous to tell on this site, so we will forego them at the moment. We'll just leave it that it involved a lot of bondage gear.

...Perhaps that was saying way too much. ONWARD!

I go back to Northwestern tomorrow, and this is the very last post I make on any web site of any kind before I leave for Evanston. This should make you all feel special, but it probably doesn't. This is because I am in fact an incredibly boring and uninteresting person who constantly deludes himself into the incredibly unfounded belief that he is indeed "special" in the non-short-bus way.

...Like my former roommate! I wonder if I'll ever see him again. I should start a pool on my site as to when he'll drop out of my third-tier university.

Anyway, I have to go now. My home planet needs me.


with love from Nick - I swear I'll find something good to put here someday

 
Saturday, September 8, 2001                    

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ADAM!!!!


with love from Not Adam - Not seeking attention!!!

 
Thursday, September 6, 2001                    
Yeah, damn right I'm offended. Why aren't more of you sloppily Photoshopping pictures of my face into other, unrelated pictures again? Nick already did one for you!

Oh, wait...never mind.


with love from Swifty - Zombies ate my neighbors

 
Wednesday, September 5, 2001                    
Why is it that after Nickd dies, we all start posting, but Swifty dies, and nobody dares? I think one of you should be taking offense.

with love from Jeff - Instigator

with love from Nick - He has joined me in my armies of the undead!

 
Friday, August 31, 2001                    
Well, in case any of you are thinking about it, forget it. I didn't shoot Nick.

Sure, I'll admit to drinking a few that night. I'd been left by my best girl mere hours earlier for another man - a weightlifter from Toledo - so I was downing shots of whiskey sour like Axis planes back in the war. And so what if I was packing heat? It's a mean city, and I don't stick to the reputable parts of it.

What I'm trying to say is that I may have shot the sherriff, but I did not shoot our friend NickD.

(is bludgeoned to death)


with love from Swifty - This space intentionally left blank

 
Thursday, August 30, 2001                    
Well, we learn something every day. Today, for example, I learned that I cannot leave the internet for 36 hours and trust Adam to keep Team FUN! sane. Tomorrow, I suspect Peter will learn that when I asked him to be my second, I did not mean I wanted to fight a duel with him. Rather, I asked him to perform a ceremonial role which involves setting the location for the duel, assuring that I act honorably, and, finally, fighting in my place if I fail to show.

Live and learn.


with love from Judah - A Valuable Lesson

 
Thursday, August 30, 2001                    



with love from Adam - Well, he still has a mustache!

....... what the.......

with love from Adam - ......

 
Thursday, August 30, 2001                    
Peter is right(on all of those accounts), it seems Nickd's fake death was just a way to put in gratuitous links for Neil.

with love from Jeff - I'm on to you!

Answers to questions:

1. No, I will not meet this Josh character. The last time I went into an Abercrombie and Fitch store, the music seeped into my brain and I was comatose for a week thereafter. Plus all those places smell really bad. Oh, and there's the thing about it being pretentious overpriced rich-white-kid clothes, as well.

2. Yes, I will gladly be your next dueling partner, Judah, if I get to choose the weapons. My preference? I will be choosing from a large selection of automatic assault rifles, such as the AR-TAC Bullpup 5.56mm rifle, the Colt M4A1 Carbine, and the Steyr AUG. You may choose from a pile of breakfast cereals.

3. I'm pretty sure Nick's not dead. It's just like him to send body doubles into hails of gunfire to throw everyone for a loop.

My diagnosis: this patient is already dead. There is nothing more we can do for him. We should draw a humorous moustache on his face, it is what he would've wanted.

(opens huge pencil/pen case)

Nurse, give me the black sharpie, please. It's under the pokemon-print bic and the scalpel.

...whoa, scalpel? What's that doing there?

with love from Alex - does not really know what she's talking about, but has decided to talk anyway.

 
Wednesday, August 29, 2001                    
For the love of God, Alex, get the PENS.

No time to locate the correct tools! The man is dying!

Wait, did this "emercency surgery" involve forcefully reinserting yourself into someone's heart? Because frankly, I'd like to hear how it went...exactly what led to this malpractice hearing? Can I get a second opinion? I knew I should have gotten the better health plan.

with love from Floyd - never gets sick.

 
Wednesday, August 29, 2001                    
I'm Alex, back to forcefully reinsert myself into your hearts. So, please, push aside that pesky love for cute baby animals, your mother, and (perhaps most importantly) things that are not me. For I have returned, and you shall have no other lord. You hear me? NO OTHER LORD.

...so.

Interesting story, the other day I was performing emergency surgery with a selection of ballpoint pens when...oh, I'll save that story for next time. Or my malpractice hearing.

with love from Alex - but can you malpractice if you were never legally practicing in the first place?

 
Wednesday, August 29, 2001

Light Sabers?

with love from Adam - VVVVVWOOOOSSSHHHH!!!

 
Tuesday, August 28, 2001                    
Dearest Adam:

You have recently implied that I do not understand sports. I hereby challenge you to a duel, to the death. Ordinarily, I would let you select the weapon, however, as you are well known to be equally inept in all forms of armed combat, I have pulled "sabers" out of a hat. I stand at your convenience.

Judah Nielsen

P.S. Peter, would you like to be my second?


with love from Judah - he will not survive the opening action

 
Tuesday, August 28, 2001                    
Can I be the friendly neighbor boy without a family?

Oh, yes. Everyone knows that Adam here is Mr. Varsity Sports.

with love from Floyd - Black sheep of the family

You can call it "ovulating warmth" if you want, but I like to call it an insane inability to play or understand sports!

monday, august 27, 2001                    
ooh, kids.

lord knows the family dynamics have been shaken up a bit.. but really : floyd! do you not know your own parental units? do you not know the ovulating warmth that IS judah nielsen, do you not know the red meat grilling wrath the ENCOMPASSES adam zavala?

you must have been adopted.


with love from meg - the only child.

 
Monday, August 27, 2001                    
What I want to know is, who is the mommy and who is the daddy?

with love from Floyd - No more vector calc ever please.

 
Monday, August 27, 2001                    
Aww.... honey, Mommy and Daddy don't fight because they hate each other, they fight because they stopped loving you. Now go on up to your room and get naked for the webcam again.

with love from Judah - back from Vector Calc

 
Monday, August 27, 2001                    
Why do mommy Judah and daddy Adam fight so? It makes me cry, and then I run to my room and read my Capt. Amazing comics, while a single tear runs down my cheek...

p.s. - i'm home from San Francisco! I had fun! I'm not dead! Yeah!

with love from J.ames - and I shall call it FARK and it shall be called good.

 
Monday, August 27, 2001                    
It is almost 4 in the a.m. and people are still screaming and being towed and getting MIP's in the parking lot. Is there no end to this madness? Only if everyone had west coast friends that are 3 hours behind. Then, everyone would be on the computer instead of getting plastered.

P.S. Confidential to Peter: Look up a kid named Josh at your local Clemson Abercrombie and Fitch. I swear to you, he is a very nice guy.


with love from Jeff - Keeping the posting to a maximum

 
Sunday, August 26, 2001                    
I love that game, dammit! And you know what else I love? I love punching that god damn monkey!

with love from Adam - that didn't sound so good....

 
Sunday, August 26, 2001                    
I swear, if I didn't get on his case, he'd just sit around playing that pathetic Java strip poker game. It would be less pathetic if he could ever remember that you need two pairs to break even, but as it is, he never even gets to see underwear.

with love from Judah - honestly.

 
Sunday, August 26, 2001                    
Where have all the entries gone? (hint: rhymes with "shmarchive")

Hello, World! After constant nagging from my wife, Judah, I did a little bit of house cleaning around here.... RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FUCKING GAME!!!.

with love from Adam - Satan made me do it!!!
