Do you all know about The Gord?

(his page is a little messed up right now, scroll to the bottom for the main page or use the navigation categories on the left).

I spend a week reading it all, then don't visit the site for months until I forget enough of the stories, then spend another week reading it all, etc. I've been reading his site for years

The Gord is the patron deity of CS.com!

[Velfarre2001]

This is like walking into a church on Sunday and asking if the people there know about God. Literally.

[Animae]

well I seem to have found something new to do.

More of a 'check it out' thread, but a good one to remind everyone of from time to time.

The written legends about the Gord were what led me to find this site. After reading those stories, I googled for more "retail stories." This site was one of the hits.

[Cat]

Same here......Gord Rules!

Wherein Irv tells you if he knows Gord

Yes, I am familiar with the Gord. I have that site bookmarked.

[Pairou]

I do now.

Ooh shiny...

[Plaidman]

Heh. I just assumed everyone knew of Gord. I've forgotten how many new people show up.


Plaidman also feels some old members are gone. But can't recall whom at the top of my head.

My wild "What if you hit the Lotto" dream is to open up a game store/arcade and run it under the Gord template. Complete with the following warning on the front door:

WARNING!
The employees running this
store are human beings
and will be treated as such.
Employees have been
encouraged to treat you
the same way you are
treating them. Consider
this fact if you should find
yourself on your tuckas in
the petunias after being
thrown out for behavior.

O MY GORD!

heh... i love the ones where the customers owe him money in late fees and tell him they're not going to pay and that "you'll have to sue me!"

mostly because ... that's what he'll do.

"You'll have to sue me if you ever want your money."

Ok. Normally I wait a year before filing any sort of legal action on unpaid debts, but if you want I can file that on Monday. In hindsight, that was a pretty stupid threat as now you've got everything happening faster. But then, you're you. Have a nice day.

Two days later I get a cheque for the money owed. Spiffy.

I was a fan of Gord before I even knew about this site. His stories always warm my heart knowing some moron is going to get PWNED in the end.

[lordlundar]

The Gord actually did visit some time ago.

I think we scared him off with our worship though...

[Racket_Man]

Love the Gord

Fear the Gord

Heed the Gord's wisdom

Obey the Gord

Grod is God

I do not think he has updated his web site in YEARS. and from the looks of it he has not updated his Asian blog for at least 3 or 4 years
