Libcom Buddies

Submitted by Noah Fence on June 9, 2016

Throwaway thread but I'm genuinely interested.

Ok then, has anyone become friends IRL with another Libcommer that you first connected with on the forums? I recently spent the day in London with one such person and I'm in daily contact by text, phone or Skype with another. In fact, though we haven't met yet I would say that my partner aside, she is the best friend I've ever had. She's coming from Canada to visit me from Canada next month. I've met a few others too which was all good. As an old codger it's a surprising way to make real friends but I can't argue with my experience.
So how about you guys?

Cocked that up a bit. Waiting for admin to approve changes but you get my drift, right?

I've had people I know be surprised when they realize who I am on libcom.

I was a bit stranded once in a foreign country due to having missed a boat and messed up all my plans, and I contacted a libcom poster in that city and he put me up for the night on his sofa.

Really? Nobody seems the least beat surprised when they find out that I'm David Icke.

On the other hand, I have a lot of friends on libcom who are definitely not my comrades ;-)
