The Coalies Are Back In Town

Friday night they'll be dressed to kill
Down at Coaltide Bar'n'Grill
The receipts will flow and wank will spill
And if the coalies wanna fight, you better let 'em
That jukebox in the corner blastin' out my favorite song
The nights are getting longer, it won't be long
Won't be long 'til Yuletide comes
Now that the coalies are here again

Like several others, I found coal first. I think because someone complained about it in chat? Or the official com? Back in the first year, when people were "think of the children!"-ing over coal.

I've visited FFA occasionally during the year when Coal isn't around, but I find that it moves so quickly that everyone's moved on to the next post 2 seconds into a conversaion, or before answering a question.

Same, and I vaguely remember seeing it mentioned on the lj comm, going to check it out and immediately being all I HAVE FOUND MY PEOPLE.

Although what I think a lot of people have forgotten is that there were actually two competing yuletide anon comms to begin with. One was _coal, and the other was like.... yt_anon maybe? But _coal won, obviously.

Yeah, like it had the opposite effect they wanted. They were like, 'look at those horrible people' and I was like, 'oh, that's where I want to be. Those are my trash people.'

I do vaguely recall that second comm!

Saaaame. I was so happy to find a place to bitch about all the passive-aggression. I've lurked _coal ever since, even though I haven't actually done Yuletide in 7 years.
