A bunch of 35-45 year old males who are bored with life. These nerds call each other names on a message board all night until they have to go to bed at 10pm, wake up at 7am, and go to their pithy 9-5 job where their boss rides them all day. They then come home to an aging wife who's putting on 5lbs a week and an 11 year old boy who can't stop pissing his bed and shitting himself on the school bus.
You see Kevin over there? He posts on Rube Chat as "Night Train." His life is pathetic but boy does he love acting tough on the internet.
the eternal home of chuck norris in WoW,as well as a hangout spot for twelve year olds. many times, after getting a character out of the barrens, they create a new one, just to go back there.
