SALUTE OUR HERO!!

SACREDSTURGEON'S EDIT: Closed upon the thread creator's request

EDIT: As humulos has left, the thread has served its purpose and is therefoe locked. Long live the humulation army!

Who is this hero? Why, of course, it’s me: your one and only Man of World!

No, actually this thread is dedicated to my very best ZU friend who shall be leaving us for two years in five days. You might have heard of him. He’s this dude from Florida, working to get money so that he can leave us. Huh, never knew ZU had a fee for leaving. Well, it’s an effective way to keep members, I suppose.

To be all serious, for just a brief moment (serious people are boring), the one I dedicated this thread to is humulos. No capital H, just plain humulos. I guess his name pretty much says everything about his persona: Easy to handle, impossible to fully understand.

humulos made his debut in the Theorizing section, pretty much. His extremely controversial humulation theory was met by much resistance, not least from my side. After just a few short month, humulos has become an active, friendly and pretty well-known member of ZU. He even made his own special friend list, the humulation army, including as many as thirty people! Aren’t they gonna be disappointed when their general leaves them? Well, let’s find out what they think of their commander.

Being a master of evil plans, I contacted every single person in his freakin army and asked them to mention stuff about humulos that they’ve appreciated. We’ve also provided a handful of quotes.

While doing this, I realised that humulos has come way further in the socialising sector than I, even though I’ve been here for quite a while. humulos has a talent for making friends, something which I admire. Not saying that I have a problem making friends, far from it. I’m just… overall lazy, which is why I’ve been here so long without making a lot of friends and put them on a freakin friend list.

humulos, on the other hand, is far from lazy, which is why he’s leaving us. His ambition still amazes me, as he’s perfectly willing to give up his current life for two years to go serve some place in Nevada. And to think Blizzaga is soon to follow. Silly mormons.

I shall now list a few (that’s the understatement of the day) people and their greatest humulastic moments, starting with myself. I still have countless of PM’s from humulos in my inbox, full of conversations about Double ALttP Theories, conversations about life and overall nonsense. Listing all the great moments I’ve had with this guy would make the thread risiculously long, so I’ll only present a few, and then I’ll let some other fellows. So let’s present:

THE MOST AWESOME HUMULASTIC MOMENTS!

From myself:

Hombre:
Good thing my first impression of you were false, namely (when reading your topic title): "Merged Timelines?! What an idiot!"

humulos:
I have to say, when you first starting posting in my thread, I had thought you an elitist pig, but then as we went through, I realized you were genuinely smart, and a great theorist and Zelda knower.

Hombre:
how would turtles benefit from such a thing? Explain yoursefl!

humulos:
Two words, Jet Packs.

Hombre:
Oh, and what's the deal with associating me with Red? I never had anything to do with red, did I? Not complaining, Red's an awesome color but I don't think I've been having any sigs or avatars involving red or anything. All I know is red is a color that is associated with win (psychologically proven), so I'm all happy ;-)

humulos:
I associate you with red because Swedish Fish are red :-P

Hombre:
I laughed hard at swedish fish. I actually have an unopened bag of those left form my US trip. We don't have them here in Sweden. Weird, huh?

humulos:
THERE ARE NO SWEDISH FISH IN SWEDEN!?!?! Well I have no reason to go there anymore do I, lol.

Oh, and Hamster Ganon says hi

Bitterlime

bitterlime:
Yeah, Impaz is not Impa. I think Nintendo added that Z to ouline that Impaz is somehow conected to Impa but also to show that they are not the same character.

humulos:
Well they are related though. The Z is just there to signify a sequel. Like Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z

The last one stuck to my head and I created this little scribble (in which Marins head is too big, and other stuff is wrong T_T) at the same day.





HelmarocKing

I just made it, it's the first completed thing I've made with GIMP! And humulos helped me learn how to make transparancy. So this is my present to him for helping me.


Nittles
Everyone is going to say this, but his fantastic, if contrevesial, timline theory. I'm just glad I joined early enough to meet him. We love you Humulos!

He's also helped people with animated sigs, like that girl Alisoun who had a clip of TP Link on Epona and it said "Link, he come to Town!"

Viewtiful Star (aka Miss Pirate)
Humulos was a kick-ass graphic artist. He made me a sig and an avatar when nobody else would. He was very nice, and helpful.


Sailboat
The best thing Humulous has ever done is create that "I'm a thwomp" thing. Here's to Humulous!
I'm a thwomp. I thwomp people.

I'm only helping you on a whim, considering I outrank both you and Humulous. It's important that my privates are happy.


Humulos has always been and will always be a kind and respectable guy. He's a funny and productive member and he will be missed over the two years that he's gone for. His great taste in games, cunning skill in the Clan Arena and great knowledge in the realm of Super Smash Brothers will not be forgotten, and neither will his unique Voldemort signature or the "I'm a Thwomp" meme. In fact, Humulos is so awesome, I'm actually writing something like this for him. I know I'm no good at it, and I rarely do this for anyone. I only do it for people who really, really deserve it.

Congratulations, Humulos. You have earned a poorly worded and uncreative sentimental note from Sailboat. I now promote you to a rank slightly lower than mine in your army.

Sincerely,

Saint Benvolio D.Sailboat.

PS: Yeah. My middle name is Danger.


Mr.Random

And of course don't forget to mention the fighting hes done on Xtreme Kombat

humulos, what can i say? You are one of the friendliest, intellient and funniest person i have ever had the pleasure of meeting. When i see one of your posts -no matter which forum it's in - i always open the thread to see it. You will be sorely missed. I admire the fact that you will leave for 2 years to do a completely selfless and amazing thing. I wish you good luck. I only wish i had joined ZU earlier so that i could have had the oppurtunity to get to know you better. I will be here when you come back, i promise you. I'm so happy that i managed to join your army, i wear your banner with pride. Good luck, Brent.


Alisoun:
When I think of something funny the first thing that pops into my head is the chocolate Master Sword I got for Valentine's day



Gustaf:
I remember my Induction into the Humulos Army: "Now that was rather cordial of you. Aye soldier, do rise, as you are in the presence of a just and equal court. Are are speedily welcomed, and do look forward to your service." as in all things, Humulos poured out his enthusiasm entirely. there will be many dull moments in his abscence, and we will all surely miss him greatly. I would like to wish him good luck on his mission. Eventhough he will be leaving soon he continues to give his full effort at ZU. I am in admiration of his devotion and am proud to be his Vassal. I will continue to serve the will of my lord even in his abscence. Farewell, O, Humulos.

Exarius:

Humulos, I never really got to know you. But the fact that you will be out there spreading gods word is amazing, That anyone can have that much Devotion to the lord.

Good Luck


Adventurer:

Humulos,

I think the first thing I remember about you was the time we were arguing in the Zelda boards about Master Quest and Ura Zelda but in the end it turned out we knew the same things. Now, we're friends and I'm now a part of the awesome Humulation army! I hope you have a great time on your Mission serving God. It'll be a life-changing experience for you. Peace out, my fellow Tales fan. Hopefully see you here in 2 years.

Adventurer


Vaati:

I first heard of your "army" from Sailboat in the Nayru Clan. I knew of your before, mostly your part in debating in the Serious Business thread. You seemed like a cool guy and I wanted to be in your rotating signature.

You're doing a great thing. I sure know I couldn't take two years away on a mission for any reason. I hope you have a great time and arrive home safely. I may or may not be here in two years to hail your return. But if I am, I'll be sure to pop in and see what's been going on.

Good luck, humulos. Enjoy your mission!


twilightMirror:
i haven't know him long but he's a good person and i wish him the best of luck *cheers smiley I couldn't include because of the image/smiley limit per post*

(note by Hombre: I always thought those were flowers...)

humulos, you were one of the main reasons I joined this forum. While lurking, I saw posts by Hylian Dan, Hombre de Mundo, and you and thought that this was the kind of forum I needed to join. It's been a great time and I'm glad I joined. I just want to say that you're an awesome guy and it's been great having someone like you around. You're always respectful, kind, and of course controversial in your own way
LONG LIVE THE HUMULATION ARMY.
I'll be praying for you while you're gone. I hope to debate alongside you again someday :]

efo:
he is really brave though and has a great ambition... such a great guy

And with that last quote from efo, I, the people who have contributed so much to this awesome thread and ZU itself want to wish you, Brent, an awesome time on your mission. And when you get back, we shall have made this a better place even so that in the time of your return, it shall look like the heaven you've served for two years

Cheesy ending FTW!



So on behalf of all of us:

Ciao!

humulos is going away? So, who's gonna take charge of his army untill he gets back?

Seriously humulos, you're one amazing dude :]
Thanks for the good times and the avy

The humulation army may be leaderless for a season or two, but we shall remain strong and PROTECT THE HOMELAND.

I love humulos and am sincerely hurt.

HAIL HUMULOS!! humulos you shall be remembered... for a while.

hmm...not sure what happened to my submition but I'll just say I hope you the very best humulos. I know you're doing the right thing and I should be joining the field in a few months so I won't be here when you get back, but you should prep the place for my return. During the time I am here and you are not I will do my best to defend the timeline merge. You rock. And if you're in provo before you go in, swing by and slap me a five.

^ Yeah, it's really stupid... at some point, part of the post which I had saved on my computer as a word document got erased... a few people were gone and with the sudden change of time limit, I had to do what I could... sorry about that, haldu2 and anyone else that has been erased without my knowledge. Well, it's a good thing that you're cleaning up after my mistakes

I'd like to share my warm and fuzzy for Humulos:

"humulos is awesomeness in a bottle! I first met him in General Gaming when he was obsessed with finding an original DS (the "DS Phats" ). After learning that there are still plenty of those in stock at my local Wa-mart, he went as far as to beg me to purchase one and send it to him through the mail. After that, we quickly became friends. I love his humor and light conversational skills. Internet and gaming isn't serious business with this guy! I can enjoy playful banter with him...even when the going gets tough. I am proud to call him my friend. Good luck on your mission, humulos! I shan't be far behind! ^_^

Oh, yeah. And: "I'm a Thwomp. I thwomp people." :XD

Is it even remotely possible to respond to something like this? I am completely awestruck right now, this is probably the most amazing thing I have ever seen. Pretty much, text cannot really express everything I want to say properly, so I am going to do respond in a more personal way tomorrow.

Some of you may be asking, "But humulos, if you weren't going to say everything now, why post at all?"

Well simply, I don't want this thread to just sit here without response from me, that would be rude to the wonderful people posting here!

For now though, thank you so much all of you! I never would have expected anything like this in my life

^ I told you to trust me on this one

Tomorrow sounds awesome, humulos! Then I can finally go to sleep.

...Well I can't think of anything to do... except... humulos The Metal is now officially with you. *Gives humulos Power of Metal*

Yeah, I'm a little Metal obsessed right now.

Dammit, I got home way too late to respond to this when it got up.

Anyways, victory to Humulos! When you get back, Xtreme Kombat will be a massive piece of internet awesomeness .

You rule! :XD

Drat! I was in school when the thread went up, so I had no chance to get something in there. Its hard to say goodbye to someone that you don't know very well, but I'll do my darndest.

humulos, you were the 4th person to welcome me to ZU. Thank you. Out of the five forums I've joined over the years, ZU is a place where I have met the most interesting people; and I am glad to say that you are among them. I still haven't managed to figure out how I was roped into joining your Army, but I'm not complaining one iota.

I have a good friend who is going to be departing on a similar mission to yourself in another few short years, so I can admire how dedicated you are to your cause. Though our beliefs may differ, I can still respect you for your commitment to yours. I wish you all the best.

I guess, this Irish blessing says all I wanted to say:
"May God grant you always... a sunbeam to warm you, a moonbeam to charm you, a sheltering Angel so nothing can harm you. Laughter to cheer you. Faithful friends near you. And whenever you pray, Heaven to hear you."

humulos; good luck and I wish you all the best.

Dang couldn't make the deadline for the surprise... thanks for telling me about the emergency at 2am by the way Hombre.

Any way it still doesn't stop me from saying a big farewell to you humulos..

Here are some posts from humulos......

Yes. Yes I am zeldagamer. Confusion is a surrealist's number 1 weapon. Mixing my ideals with fact is my primary method of implementing confusion.

was under the impression he was 8. Though I suppose you are right, but I never really saw Zelda as snobbish.

Perhaps someone from Labrynna?

Oh, and zeldagamer, I was responding to your post, number twenty-nine. Though if the statement itself confuses you, I will explain. Later. Got somewhere to be right now.

I never did find out by the way.

A food I suppose. I hope.

So it's agreed. Link is only the father if he is bleeding.

And zeldagamer, you're not really understanding the concept of surrealism are you? LoL.

*Very late reply*
Thats because you never explained to me.

Also, you are dead to me ZeldaGamer.

I know you tought i was offended by it but i got the joke.

I am sorry! I was definitely not serious! I would never say anything like that seriously. Don't be sad!

Oh, and definitely don't apologize to me, you have no reason to! If you did then everyone else on this thread besides Mr Random and maybe WW Spartan would have to apologize too.

I will make it up to you, anything you want, just name it, and I will photoshop it.

Oh, and I am not going to reply to any other posts right now, as it is monday night and for some reason those are the busiest around here, so I need to focus on work right now.

This was your reply after i said did you mean that.. he he i thought this was quite funny because i only did that to see how you would react.



Any way i just want to say i'll miss seeing you around the forums, you'll be gone for 2 years! thats pretty long...*sigh*
Oh well good bye a huge GOOD LUCK and GOD BLESS!!!!!!

Heres something i made for you on GIMP.




I'll miss you and your crazy merge theory...

Hiel Future!

I wish you very good luck on your mission, and I hope we can play brawl when you get back.

Hey guess what!...I kinda overslept this thread!

humulos, I just wanted to say that you are one of the nicest people around here and very very funny!!
I will miss you, but I'm allready looking forward to see you again in 2 years.
I whish you the very best and hope you wil return safely to the homeland!

I'm not good at these corny goodbye things so this will have to do it!:p

humulos! I'll miss you! WAAAAAAAAAH! (That was a little scary) But seriously. If you want, I'll take over defending your timeline! I'd do that! I'll miss you buddy!

I have not been here very long but humulos is a really nice guy... its sad that your leaving us so soon! best of luck to you.
*sheds tear*

I will forever think of humulos everytime I see Voldemort's face. :XD

In all seriousness, it's sad to see you go, though it is a very good and happy thing for you. And it's sad for me because I never got to know you while you were here, and now you're about to leave very soon. But I wish you safe travels and a happy, life enriching journey!
