Armchair Commando ?

#1

Post by TheRaven »

Does anyone recall the name of the Internet ranger with his famous mall ninja posts??

I wanted to search the net for his old stuff (for a good laugh) but can't recall the guy's name?

Thanks

I'm sure there are others, but Gecko45 is the first that comes to mind. :D

Totally not related, but way back in the AOL days of the internet a guy going by Bloodninja used to troll the cyber sex folks, and much hilarity ensued.

This dip always makes me laugh every time I watch it. I just watched it again I have tears . Who ever did the editing hats off to you sir. And this dip has tones of videos he takes himself very serious . So he really means what he is saying.

That's George Mathias, aka Mercop. It's a joke vid...did you not get that? Apparently he's dead panning a little too well for some folks.

FWIW, I don't think anyone ever figured out whether Gecko45 was for real, or just someone with a beautifully warped sense of humor.

"For real" for a given value of 'real' ;)

It was either the most finely honed piece of trolling ever or the most bone-headed piece of knuckle-dragging.....We'll never know for sure.

Though anyone suggesting that taking multiple .338 magnum rounds in the back is likely in your average mall and your go to gameplan?...That's some kind of inverted genius right there.

Might be worth seeing if Gecko45 has a writing credit on that appalling Paul Blart movie. :rolleyes:
Warhammer 40000 is- basically- Lord Of The Rings on a cocktail of every drug known to man and genuine lunar dust, stuck in a blender with Alien, Mechwarrior, Dune, Starship Troopers, Fahrenheit 451 and Star Wars, bathed in blood, turned up to eleventy billion, set on fire, and catapulted off into space screaming "WAAAGH!" and waving a chainsaw sword- without the happy ending.

Even I took Gecko45 for a laugh, never took him seriously.
Gave me some good laughs, admittedly.

Cheers,

Guys, I'm referring to the video that Mic1 posted, that's a relatively well known instructor making a joke video.

Gecko45 was a troll, please continue to laugh at him, serious or no!
