You became a Redditor a day before Condé Nast Publications acquired Reddit. You've been here longer than the owners of the site. /applauds

Shit I should've waited too

HOLY FUCK.


HaxorusOG

You win my respect. Edit: Had to make it clear I was saying you won my respect. ;)

CAN I PLAY?

Got you beat. ;) I'm sure someone will be along anytime now to tell me the same.


CaptainObvious

Get off my lawn!

Beat me to it by about 3 weeks! Well met, O wise one.

NineteenthJester

How is it that you've been here nearly 6 years and have so little karma?


RsonW

I dunno, it was just after my third Reddit birthday that I made my first comment.


frickindeal

I might as well join the crowd.


BuckFutt993

So you were just a lurker for five years?


-JuJu-

Nice try, jbigboote's alt account.


morpheousmarty

You have r/gonewild. Everyone is a winner.

wow that's crazy. it's my bday too.


the_cake_day_kid

[Happy cake day!](http://domesticred.files.wordpress.com/2011/01/redditcakeinspiration1.jpg) I guess you can have a cake too.


sqeakysquark

Well, whadayaknow...


familyturtle

Jesus, has it really been that long? Talking about how Conde Nast's ownership would affect the site used to be a massively hot topic. (I started lurking fairly soon after the acquisition)


jbigboote

[and technically Condé Nast no longer owns reddit, the parent company does.](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reddit)


shrmn

WTF was I doing in September that I did not notice that happen? EDIT: BFD anyway. What difference does it make whether a company is owned by its owner or its owner's owner?


Patrick_M_Bateman

Only a day? I was here long before that. How long ago did reddit add comment karma? (Or was that after the creation of subreddits?)


JerkyChew

Where do you see the join date? I can't find his or mine. (yes, this is all I have)


HaxorusOG

Well....**I** don't know where the join date is, but I do know today is his Reddit Birthday... So that would make his join date October 30th.


queezle

Those cracks in your face, do they hurt?


jbigboote

and probably nobody will get the reference, because, you know...


Liar_tuck

Logans run. "The naming of cats is a difficult matter, it's not just one of your holiday games. You may think at first I'm mad as a hatter, when I tell you that each cat's got three different names."


Azurphax

Thank you for doing this in 9 minutes of the OP


[deleted]

Hi Gabe! Can you give me a free copy of portal 2?


Azurphax

I don't even have portal 2!


[deleted]

But you're GABE!


a_drive

That's actually a quote from Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats by T.S. Elliot, the book the musical Cats was based on. The movie quotes the book.


Liar_tuck

Paraphrased by creepy old cat gun on logans run.


a_drive

Yup, I love that movie. I wasn't correcting you, just giving a little more information. The more you know.


Liar_tuck

Anyone who did not know that, cannot properly appreciate the movie.


billthecat0105

God that movie is long as fuck.


scrambles57

I wish it was longer. I fell in love with Jenny Agutter.

Headpuncher

Well, i'm still seeding (currently at a ratio of 48) so if you want to start again from the beginning...


verstohlen

God her nose is so f'ing cute.


[deleted]

While I admit, it feels like it the first time. I'm pretty sure it's 2 hours or under.


raptorraptor

Only 2 hours? Gladiator is 2 hours 50 minutes!


AnnoDominiI

King Kong man, King Kong


billthecat0105

Okay, so I just checked and it is indeed only 2 hours. I'm kind of amazed. It felt like at least 3 hours when I watched it. albeit, it was like 9 years ago and I was muuuuuch younger.

JimmyHavok

Projection. Your customer had cats who didn't listen to him because....


LetsGetRamblin

On a recent drive across the country, I had a little time to kill in a hotel in Ft. Worth, Texas. So naturally, I watched Logan's Run on my laptop. At the end I noticed scenes were filmed IN Ft. Worth, at the "water garden"! And this is the point where I'd say I then visited the place, but I was too lazy to head back out into traffic. But I found a video of the place, it's still there: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vqFctCc9aYI


producer35

Renew. Renew. I prefer to remember [Jessica 6](http://imgur.com/hT3WO) and her costume. It makes me feel younger.


fafol

mmmm, Jenny Agutter. I had (still have) such a crush on her


Headpuncher

She has a nice website where you can find details of how to get your grubby hands on a signed pic. Naturally, I'm not going to provide a URL.


producer35

No question. I empathize. I was always amazed and thankful for the ice cave scene and whatever plot point contributed to the gratuitous disrobing.


[deleted]

I can't get over that you have been on Reddit for 5-years, and joined with the name, "Jbigboote". I cannot wrap my head around why you would do that when the possibilities were endless. Why?!


jbigboote

redman66

I'm proud that I immediately recognized the reference. What an awesome movie.


[deleted]

It's pronounced "big booTAY"!


Patrick_M_Bateman

Best of the Johns, really.


jbigboote

smallberries was real good too.


CaptainObvious

The possibilities were not endless, now get off my lawn!


Confuseled

It was a brilliant reference.


lizzyshoe

I don't. Explain?


jbigboote

Liar_tuck nailed it.


[deleted]

Logan's run, as people have already commented. In the words of Stephen Fry, "Well, you must have some points for that!"


thedbp

hey, nice day, to have your cake day!


the_cake_day_kid

After long deliberation I decided there was absolutely no cake theme that would be relevant to you so enjoy your goddamn regular cake, you bastard. [Happy cake day!](http://images.free-extras.com/pics/s/slice_of_chocolate_cake-1341.jpg)


s-mores

Tell us a story, old timer.


jbigboote

in my day, reposts were frowned upon.


[deleted]

Reddit needs more Logan's Run references.

[deleted]

I watched it last night. :-)


[deleted]

You've been here 5 years and honestly thought nobody would get this?


jbigboote

I can honestly say I don't recall any other Logan's Run references in my time here.


[deleted]

If Family Guy makes references to it, it's a pretty safe bet it's not that obscure.


jbigboote

family guy makes a hundred references an episode. I'm sure many of them are missed by young folks.


[deleted]

Oh I see. Being on reddit for 5 years isn't the same as being old. I've been here for 3 and I'm only 19.


jbigboote

I should perhaps clarify, in addition to reddit making me feel old, I actually am pretty old (compared to the average redditor).


[deleted]

Ah I see. That's probably even more true lately. Recently there's been a large influx of a much younger userbase than before. I'm a sophomore in college, I still have some friends in high school, and recently I found out that this site has become popular there. Even with freshmen and sophomores. I'm interested in how you found this site. The fact you're older than most redditors and the fact you've been here for 5 years makes me think you started back when a large portion of this site was orientated towards programmers, and that you're a programmer yourself. However looking though your post history makes you look like a Nokia shill. Or someone who just really, really likes every detail of a forgotten mobile company.


jbigboote

yeah, I have no connection to Nokia, other than being a customer (an N8 is my main cell phone), and a longtime fan of the Symbian OS. I still prefer it to iOS or (almost all implementations of) Android, as I don't have to root/jailbreak my handset to use it how I want. Now that they are a Windows shop, I don't know what I'll do for my next handset. but I digress... As for how I found this site, I don't recall. I know I used Digg before reddit, and at some point I started up with reddit, and it eventually supplanted Digg. I'm not a programmer, not by trade, though it's not completely foreign to my job either. I work in IT, that much is true.


[deleted]

Haha yeah, it's very rare to find someone on this site that's been here for 5 or 6 years without an IT background. Mad props for being a Nokia fan. They make good stuff, and I've had a few of their phones before. [I had one of these](http://i.imgur.com/8QhIH.jpg) for like 3 years in a row.

Motherfucking Logan's Run! One of my most favorite movies since I was young. Love it.


waffleninja

wcalvert

My 5-year is on Monday and I still don't know if I should post anything. Oh well! Happy cake day!


jbigboote

do it. I made a comment this morning and saw the cake, and knew I had to post something.


wcalvert

What brought you to Reddit 5 years ago? I don't even remember at this point.


CaptainObvious

I found reddit after reading a Paul Graham article explaining Y-Combinator.


wcalvert

Nice! Also, my cake day kicked in. AAAAWWW YEAHHH


CaptainObvious

Get off my lawn! Lousy kids...


the_cake_day_kid

[Happy cake day!](http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lrj1q0bSQr1qbbpaoo1_400.jpg) This cake holds absolutely relevance but I just think it's super.

You should try 5 years on 4chan then going on this very subreddit. You'll feel like [this](http://courtneykupsch.files.wordpress.com/2011/02/82.jpg).


BloodRedSumo

/b/ may be a shithole but everytime a laugh you lose thread comes up, one of the images hits the frontpage a few hours later.


jbigboote

exactly, reddit filters most of the good stuff for me. I'm sure I miss some gems, but I can live with the trade-off.

Do each of your cats have a name that you call them, a secret name they use when conversing with other cats and a special fancy name?

tell us wise man, how many reposts have you seen? What scared you the most?

gigantepicante

I do envy your 5-year old account, but this was a pretty unimaginative post for such a seasoned redditor.


jbigboote

meh, I don't post much, at least not anything that has any chance of being popular. I'm mostly a comment-in-obscure-subreddits guy.


gigantepicante

I can dig it.
