***OFFICIAL*** HROT Refugee Processing & Introductions

[alaskanseminole]

Okay, I'll go first.

Originally from the Whorechant Locker Room and during the Great War became an Iowa Hawkeyes Off Topic refugee. Grew up in Central Florida, spent years bouncing around the world via the Air Force, and eventually landed in South Texas. I don't play for the blue team or the red team and prefer thinking for myself. I'm a Gen Xer, so don't come whining to me about your feelings. I enjoy long walks on the beach, dumping money under the hood of my Jeep and reminding my boomer family that Fox News is entertainment, not journalism.

And to my Iowa peeps:

 

[BroncHawk]

 

[GOHOX69]

I'm da brown guy.

 

[AFM22]

 

[Moral]

I'm moral. I'm known for my four upper abs and skateboarding abilities.

 

[hawkeyetraveler]

My name is Hawkeye traveler. I'm a Hawkeye and I like to travel.

My avatar is an official @Moral art piece. It is glorious and you should all be in awe.

Why are you carrying Kim Jong Un in your suitcase?

 

[Tenacious E_rivals41982]

My name starts with an e and i am tenacious. Although, not as tenacious as I once was. Like OP, Gen X and former USAF.

 

[hawkeyetraveler]

Why are you carrying Kim Jong Un in your suitcase?

The original prompt I gave moral was something like "Herky wearing a hawaiian shirt carrying a suitcase with I heart IC stickers in one hand and a bottle of swarm vodka in the other. The suitcase is filled with contraband one collects while traveling like cuban cigars, weed and kim jung un."

@alaskanseminole made me an AI one which is the backdrop if you pull up my profile page. I use the human created original because, as I said, it is glorious.

I’m:

T-errifying
R-apacious
A-ngelic
N-eurotic
N-oxious
Y-apper

Howdy.

 

[TennNole17*]

Similar pathology as OP, as far as how I ended up on this board

I have no remarkable skills or personality traits of note, so I’ll just blend in.

Politically I tend to irritate the fanatics when I wade into their threads/discussions because I think it’s all theatrical

[SeaPA]

When I'm not golfing, I like water sports...fishing, diving, water skiing. I pay for it by being an accountant. I love tequila, and don't discriminate between the top shelf stuff and the bottom shelf stuff, it all has its' place - in my belly.

[BelemNole]

So not as gay as the RNC?

No, but it's less of a secret and there's no shame crying.

 

[BroncHawk]

there's no shame crying.

[alaskanseminole]

And it's C.P.A. not Sea Pa as in...

 

[RockyMtNole]

My name is John Barron. I’m a svelte 6’3” and 215 pounds. Chicks dig me, because I rarely wear underwear and when I do it's usually something unusual.

I like raising pigs, going to raves and playing Minecraft. I’m usually chilling in jean shorts and flip flops. Shirt optional.

I’m self-employed and run a company called Prestige Worldwide. Management. Financial portfolios. Insurance. Computers. Black leather gloves. Research and development. Things like that.

Nice to be here!

 

[alaskanseminole]

Black leather gloves

 

[Torbee]

HI.

I am subcontracting this job out to ChatGPT, so some of this no doubt will be hallucinated:

I suppose introductions are in order since I’ve wandered over from the Iowa side of the internet after our beloved Hawkeye Report off-topic board (“HROT”) disappeared behind the paywall curtain.

I’m Torbee — part columnist, part professional smartass, part Midwestern anthropologist documenting the strange rituals of sports fans in their natural habitat. Over on Hawkeye Report, I’ve long occupied the niche of “the guy who writes too much for a message board but somehow gets away with it.” Equal parts Iowa sports, existential dread, gallows humor and unnecessary historical references.

In real life, I’m a professional writer/editor, which means I can toggle seamlessly between “serious magazine profile” and “arguing about punting strategy while comparing Kirk Ferentz to a Byzantine emperor.” It’s a gift. Or a disease.

My interests include:
— Iowa football emotional trauma
— baseball romanticism
— weird museums
— backyard bird politics
— vinyl records
— overly literary sports metaphors
— making cocktails with whatever is left in the fridge
— convincing myself each Cubs season is spiritually different from the last

Personality-wise, think: if your newspaper columnist uncle accidentally became Extremely Online but still insists on writing in complete sentences.

Anyway, happy to be here among the Tiger folk. I come in peace. Mostly.
