    why did everyone have cappys picture up that one fateful weekend?

    I can't even answer this, all I know is I started getting messages outside of MFP asking if I had died and people were commemorating me.

    If you die, I'm slathering myself in crunchy peanut butter and posting a new PB selfie daily in your honor.

    There are lots of people who have been here for years. Are you newish? Been wondering about an inside joke that everyone else seems to get? Trying to piece through name changes? Wondering anything at all? Ask here. You can ask in general or tag someone.

    RULES:
    1. You cannot ask about the circumstances surrounding a ban.

    2. OGs- this thread is for noobs. No devolving into inside jokes!

    Well, I'm part "newish" on my mother's side... some great recipes but so much guilt.

    Is there a cross-reference / index for the ever changing / evolving usernames that you OGs use?

    If there is, I would like to know too

    @DeadliftsAndSprinkles and I started that off I think. I messaged everyone I had as friends on ig and mfp that this was the plan. Most people declined to participate. I messaged people that I was not yet friends with on mfp to do it but unfortunately the message glitch had started happening and I didn’t realize my messages weren’t being received. For that reason I felt it flopped, because it was meant to be a prank on Cap, not an exclusive joke for just a few members.

    No, no - it was good! I don't remember what thread it was but it looked like @Caporegiem had gone crazy because there were about 15 posts in a row with the same photo, so it was like he was having a whole conversation with himself on here :D

    You did it again 😂😂

    Oh, you kinda have dibs on whoever you want 😏 I think pairings suggests a mutualness that doesn’t really happen much

    @Avocado_AS5 likes creamy PB and I like crunchy, we decided it was great because we'd never steal each other's PB. I haven't had the heart to tell her I converted to creamy PB a year or so ago after they quit carrying the crunchy kind I liked at the grocery.

    whats the original kevin story. I assume it hasnt always been Karen?

    If I recall correctly some guy started a thread without realizing he was starting a thread (still can't figure out how people do this) called "Where is Kevin?" so of course we all started posting pics of Kevin Bacon and things like that. Then there was another thread where a guy who had a username that included Kevin posted something and it was just ironic timing. Of course both guys eventually disappeared. So Kevin will randomly be mentioned just to bring back those fond memories.
    I have never actually been Kevin.
    Also..... this was much funnier when it actually happened. It is a lame story now

    So how did Karen happen? And buttsville Nd? And the stripper job?

    You’d convert to skim milk over the good stuff just to save 2 cents a half gallon though

    It does, but only for 3 months at a time. Max.

    I don’t know anyone who can make it that long
