This story of love and happiness begins one fine afternoon as your humble narrator happily chats away on his aol instant messenging machine. I leave my computer briefly to make a sandwich and when I return, I am greeted by strange message from someone named ragecorptk asking me "Are you the owner of fucksociety?", then proceeding to sign off before I could reply. Confused by such a random message, I saved this gentleman's name to my aol instant messenger buddy list in order to locate him to later clear up this confusion. About a week later, I discovered his name on my list and decided to investigate into his strange little inquiry. What follows is the sextacular epic of an adventure with my pal, Ragecorp. Neotanooki: HI friend! ragecorptk: who is this? Neotanooki: i dont know, you messagefd me a while ago so i was liek "who coiuld this individual be?" and added you
ragecorptk: Do you own a website?
ragecorptk: YEAH!!! Neotanooki: how may i help you, friend? ragecorptk: I wanted to do a link exchange
Anyhow, I informed him that I would "deploy a priority order to The Fuck Society's head web developer to add his banners" and that "It will take 5-7 business days". And sure enough, after 7 business days, I see him once again... ragecorptk: we need to talk Neotanooki: You're on! exellent. I need to talk to you ragecorptk: ok ragecorptk: I didn't see my banners ragecorptk: where are they ragecorptk: I am not mad I was informed that this little imp located the staff page on fs and began contacting everyone Neotanooki: My business partner informed me that you spoke with his girlfriend ragecorptk: yeah Neotanooki: Yes, friend. please bear with me ragecorptk: ok ragecorptk: what? ragecorptk: please just be truthful and tell me what is happening Neotanooki: during our meeting this morning, Tim.. this new guy.. sort of a patriarch, you know? anyhow, hes in marketing so he basically has the last say in anything we do.. HAHA "marketing" .. business-talk Neotanooki: ok ragecorptk: ok ragecorptk: let me guess ragecorptk: he said no Neotanooki: well, i personally find your site to be ideal, content filled, and suitably patriotic Neotanooki: No no no no, we;ll definetly add your banners ragecorptk: ok ragecorptk: but when lets just see how far i can go with this guy... Neotanooki: He just needs something else.. just one more thing to verify the site's patriotism, yknow? ragecorptk: dude ragecorptk: I have given you not one Neotanooki: His deal was, he would not only add banners, but give a DIRECT POPUP to your site ragecorptk: but TWO FRONT PAGE BANNERS Neotanooki: that means that you will share ALL HITS that The Fuck Society gets! Neotanooki: and all you have to do is embed a patriotic midi file to proudly usher in our newfound partnership I really thought at this point, he would catch on and this trolling would come to an end ragecorptk: ok ragecorptk: I will give you guys a banner ragecorptk: in our cranks section Neotanooki: if you wish to use it ragecorptk: a 468x60 banner ragecorptk: you put whatever you want on it ragecorptk: wait ragecorptk: I will use anything you send me ragecorptk: its just you keep on making me add MORE THINGS TO MY SITE ragecorptk: and I haven ragecorptk: gotten SHIT out of the deal yet Neotanooki: yes yes, friend. i sincerely apologize ragecorptk: what do I need to add Neotanooki: it's not me, i want us to link your site. it's just my team cannot agree on anything.. it's just chaos..

Neotanooki: No no, we here at The Fuck Society dont need anymore banners on your site, the two flags are most exellent ragecorptk: ok ragecorptk: what do you want me to add then? Neotanooki: http://www.jeannepasero.com/starsstripes.mid we have found this. a fine anthem that will usher in a new era in patriotic humor site partnerships! Neotanooki: will you answer the call to proudly embed it on your web site ? ragecorptk: yes ragecorptk: NO MORE ADDING THINGS TO MY SITE THOUGH ragecorptk: and I won't put it on my front page Neotanooki: this is the last thing, i promise ragecorptk: it will go in the literature section Neotanooki: it wont take up any space. just play Neotanooki: im not sure Tim would go for that, friend... . ragecorptk: look ragecorptk: here is the thing Neotanooki: yes? ragecorptk: I need to keep my site in good condition for the customers ragecorptk: and visitors ragecorptk: adding all of this crap to the front page ragecorptk: only makes the site longer to load ragecorptk: so I will put it in the CRANKS section (MOST HITS) ragecorptk: and that is all I can do for now. Neotanooki: I agree. though the market research team affiliates say that midi files are the number one way for sites to generate hits initially LOL Neotanooki: the song gets in their heads Neotanooki: and it reminds them of the site ragecorptk: IT WONT EVEN LET ME DOWNLOAD IT!!
