About Me

THE MESSAGE BOARD, bringing online chats to life! This project began June 12, 2007 when, after visiting a wedding message board, I was amazed by the many revealing, ridiculous, and rude conversations that were happening online. I'm not sure what shocked me more: the fact that some people find such false courage when posting anonymous message board comments OR the fact that some people use their real name when posting extremely personal message board comments!
Confused and amused, I decided to start bringing these wedding message boards (and occasionally other boards like parenting, pet owner, etc) and their many characters to life through my video series The Message Board. Everything you see on this site is inspired by REAL message posts, they may not be word-for-word (hence the word inspired), but lots of them are pretty darn close. What I do is I find great message board discussions, change the names (for privacy) and change/add some of the lines (for comedy) and then act out the conversations for you to enjoy!
Unfortunately I had to put the project on hold in May 2008 so that I could deal with some offline, real life issues. In January 2010 I returned and revived the series, (tossing in some special videos that go beyond just bridal banter. ) Now I'm creating a new Message Board videos as I find the crazy.
If you find message boards (not just wedding boards, any message boards!) that you'd like me to use in my next video please email me at themessageboardvideos@gmail.com
Also email me if you'd like to be alerted when a new video is posted to this site (or simply become a follower of this blog.)
