Title: Just wondering...What the stars all about...
Post by Dream of Goo on Apr 19th, 2005, 4:24pm
Hi,

i only joined this msg board last weekend and i love it here talkin to true goo fans....
I was wondering though, on each members section there r stars... some members have five others less... i have one star with 'naked' written under it and others have goo god with Five stars.
So i made this observation and wnated to know what it meant.
Thanks.  :)

It's dependent on how many posts you have.  As you post more, you'll see your stars increase.   And if you talk on here TOOO much (like a lot of us do), you'll eventually get to Goo God status, which is equivalent to completely obsessed, I think.   :D

LOL!  See?  THAT's how you become a Goo God, by hijacking threads like simple questions.    ;D  (and obviously, I'm in the completely obsessed category as well. Goo RULES!)

:hahaha:  baby Goo God!  You could be on the cover of ABNG!        Seriously, mine wouldn't be so high if it wasn't for the OT boards. I'm always posting on the "What are you listening to now?" kind of threads.

LOL, it took me many years to actually get this many posts, but I'm never above making pointless posts from time to time!! It's easier than you think to post lots, honestly!!  ;D

Post by Skkyer on Apr 22nd, 2005, 8:43am
I don't feel bad only having one star, but being called "Naked" ?  At my age, I really don't care for "Naked" couldn't that be changed to "Welcome" or "Goo Fan" ???  Who wants to think of a middle age grandmother of being naked on the internet?  :-[

Title: Re: Just wondering...What the stars all about...
Post by BeaTheGooFan on Apr 24th, 2005, 3:16pm
LOL No worries, us "Naked" folks need to ban together!  :D But hey, we come into the world naked....so I guess we start on the board as such.....hehe!  :)

Don't worry ladies your "Naked" status doesn't last too long. :)

Wow, lots of goo gods here.  What is it, 500 posts for a goo god? How many to be un-naked?

Title: Re: Just wondering...What the stars all about...
Post by goober_1013 on Apr 24th, 2005, 10:25pm
it took me forever to make Goo God, i'd just post here and there and then you really start getting into and BAM! Goo God. . .i can't wait 'til i have as many posts as partygoober, she's got like 4000+. . .and when i do, i'm gonna have a par-tay. . .  :party:

Title: Re: Just wondering...What the stars all about...
Post by Skkyer on Apr 26th, 2005, 12:17pm
Does anyone know what the next step is after naked, or do you just jump from naked to Goo God?  ( I can't wait to tell my 30 something daughter I'm considered "naked" on the internet.  She'll just roll her eyes and change the subject.  My husband will laugh. )

Title: Re: Just wondering...What the stars all about...
Post by Iris74 on Apr 26th, 2005, 6:25pm
50 posts moves you  "Up, Up, Up" and to 2 stars   can't remember what 3 stars is but I'm sure it's a Goo song title, 4 stars is "I'm Addicted"

Yep, the video was filmed in Vegas, although most of it was filmed inside a taxi, so you just see strange people getting in and out of it.  The kind of thing  you'd ONLY see in Vegas.

I've been to Vegas, think I went inside Ceasars, but you'd never catch me dead at the Celine Dion show.  She was OK until she sang on a soundtrack about a sinking ship (LOVE the movie, hate the song).

Title: Re: Just wondering...What the stars all about...
Post by MethodInMadness on Apr 28th, 2005, 5:34pm
I went to Vegas when I was really little. I don't remember much.

I used to love Celine Dion. I had a whole bunch of her CDs. Then her songs became kinda redundant. Always "I love you, I need you"

That's ok. I missed yours at first too.  :)      You can remember when you started here?  Feels like FOREVER to me...I know it couldn't have been, since I didn't know Goo 'til they opened for Jovi, and that wasn't that long ago...but it feels like I've loved them forever.

And I'm sure Robby would make you a sandwich NO prob!   ;)

When it came out it was on their site and you could download it.  I have it but it is almost 35MB so I don't know how I could send it to you.   :-/  And on the site it looks like you can get it but the link doesn't seem to work.  

I hope you can find it someplace......because it IS awesome!!   ;D

Yeah, it's a great one.  One of my favorite Goo vids (I think I still like Broadway more.  It's just SOO perfect, especially for the time period it was made.  Trying to make them all image, and here comes the old/fat Goos.  ;D )

Hey Iris, I sure hope I get a chance at that sandwich with Robby someday.  That would be awesome!   :woohoo:

So yeah....the Sympathy video.  the day it came out (online at the Goo site) my friend told me about it while I was still at work....all work STOPPED!  I spent the rest of the afternoon watching it and showing it to anyone who came by my desk.   :drama:

Then we literally spent the next several days going "LOOK at 1:13" (or some other moment where someone looked HOT and/or something cute, funny or a sexy move happened).  *blush* Man, I will NEVER forget that day!!  :cool:

I  :love: the Sympathy video.  Now and forever!   ;D

For anyone here, I'm sure!   ;D

I've managed to keep the Goo thing under wraps at work.  I get hassled enough about other obsessions over the years, and Goo's a private thing with me.  Their music hits closer to home than other bands, and I don't want to have to defend myself over it.  So you's guys and my family (since they need to get me SOMETHING at Xmas ha ha!)  are the only ones that know.

I know what you mean about defending yourself over it. I am glad we are here for you.  Everyone at work knows I ador the Goo Goo Dolls.  I'm laid back, and very nice at work, but after telling one of the executives to "Shut up and sit down, Goo is playing!" it so shocked everyone to see that side of me, they tease me about the Goo Goo Dolls.  At least they tease in a nice way.  I've worked at some places where coworkers were down right mean to each other so I don't blame you for keeping your love of Goo under wraps.

I understand where u guys are coming from, none of my mates r into them, i try to get them into them and they like the mellodies but thats as far,  but they are more into USHER  and artists of that nature. Nothing wrong with them but not my cup of tea. So i am sooooooooo happy to find other goo fans here that relate to me too.

Post by MethodInMadness on May 4th, 2005, 3:55pm
The thread that never dies!
None of my friends are really into Goo either, expecially not the guys who label that as "pop rock" or even "sissy stuff" as soon as the hear the name. Some of them even refuse to listen to them! Everyone else just thinks they're ok. Basically anyone that knows me at all knows I like the Goos. I have no problem with everyone knowing.
