Can any amount of pixels fix this?

There are not enough pixels in teh world

Thursday, July 31, 2008 by ZubaZ | Discussion: Community

I'm not sure how things work in other online communities but I think Wincustomize is special.  Well . . I know it's special . . but it's MORE special in this one case.

One of our members, the one and only (thank goodness)  RomanDA, has the misfortune to have to travel more than he'd like in meat-space.  But to my fortune, he was within driving distance of my home and we were able to have dinner and coffee (along with my wife to chaparone).

Surprising as it may be, RomanDA was a pleasant dinner companion.  He beat no one up, chewed with his mouth closed, and did not insult or embarrass my wife.

We spent the evening talking partly about this and that but the majority of the time was spent making fun of Island Dog (whom RomanDA had visited in Florida before).  We spoke at length about the history and future of DX and how skinning has changed over the years.

All in all, I think we had a great time.  If you are ever traveling to Houston, let me know via PM or email.  We can make fun of RomanDA.  Also . .  it's a bit dated but take a look at http://www.frappr.com/wincustomize/map. Add yourself if you have not already there.  If you are traveling where there is another one of "us", take the opportunity to meet up.  At the least it may prove to your significant other that yes, there are real people on the other side of the monitor.

I'd like to take the opportunity to thank RomanDA for making the drive out to the burbs and back.  I had a great time buddy!

And now . . to the point of the title of this post:

Zubaz and RomanDA

Really nice! Others should get together and find ways to be as such. Oh and some great pictures too! Great to see things like this happening.

Nice pics, but can you explain why you are either buttoning or unbuttoning your shirt Zubaz?   

RomanDA gives they impression that he could very easily beat a computer into submission.

I once heard that online relationships are to real life relationships as masturbation is to real sex.

So Zu? Is it true?

He could be showing off his Stardock nipple ring.
Or... he could be Superman,disguised as a mild mannered moderator

NT: not surprisingly, David and I were the same in person as in the forums and IRC.  I think we were (are) funny, helpful, sarcastic, and friends.

The wife forbade that.  We are negotiating the tattoo now.

the bad part is.. i never even saw him doing that with his shirt.. scared the crap out of me when i saw that photo.

BFF, LOL, I enjoyed it as well, it was very fun to not have to see all your speeeling errors when we were talking. Its VERY obvious that you and your wife have a great relationship, it was so fun to have someone else to pick on you with. LOL

I wanted to tell Justin that Zu's daughter is even prettier in person, how she is related to Zu i have no idea.

I have had the pleasure of meeting 2 of my IRC/WC Friends in the "real world" and both have been just as great to hang out with as they are on IRC. Now, what city is Bebi in again??? LOL (just kidding).

I do travel a lot, some times more than i want to. Its always a pleasant surprise to find out that someone here lives just up the road from where i am staying.

So next time Zu, keep the shirt on, the "ring" wasn't that impressive.. LOL

I live abt 30 min from Bebi, but as of yet have not been able to meet up with her. For some odd reason she refuses my phone calls and pic's and wont gime her adress. ( the pics were Tasteful i swear, ok well most of them were.    must be the fear of some chubby, 3 toothed red neck showing up at her door that spooks her.   

J/K Lovs ya Babe

But seriously weve talked about it a few times but my work restraints have been less that desirable. I missed the chance to meet DC and Bebi, due to the same issues. Hopefully one day we can get together an shoot the breeze.

Yeah sucks you were up north when he was here, that would have been fun. Could have met up for some pizza at the Galleria or something.
