What were so many ppl doing up at 6 am on the day after Xmas???

I've noticed this a few times at the bottom of the main page, and smiled to myself ever time...


Most users ever online was 43, 26.12.2005 at 06:28.

Now, what in the world were all these people doing online at 6 am on Boxing day???


Does that say something about festivals and family gatherings?

Now, don't lie...you had no choice but to stay online. Your ball hair was still between "g" "h" and "j"....and you had to wait until the next available work day to call a licksmith to help bust you out.



swimming in my puddle of pee,

Carrie

The answer is google. No, not my usual answer "go look it up on google, dumbass", but rather that it was probably the case that a whole group of search engine spiders arrived at the same time.

Carrie - can we have a bit less pubic hair, urination etc? I think we should still be able to come up with some funny jokes above the belt every now and then??
