Introduction and Early Years (2003-2004)

Natasha Richardson (common abbrv: That Chick From The Parent Trap) is a straight, married 41-year-old male living in the northern suburbs of Chicago, Illinois. He first came to Hollywood in October, 2003 during the Survivor: Pearl Islands season. Initially strictly a lurker, he began posting in Survivor related forums in December of 2003 shortly before the Oscars. He remained strictly a Survivor related poster during the ASS season, gravitating mostly to the Speculation forum while playing in Hollywood.

During the summer of 2004, between All-Stars and Vanuatu, That Chick From The Parent Trap began frequenting the Off Topic forum at Sucks. While at first remaining strictly a lurker, he became fascinated at this incredible forum that was so much more interesting than Survivor itself^{[Citation needed]}. From that point on, That Chick From The Parent Trap began to make OT his primary internet hangout. During the Survivor: Vanuatu season, That Chick From The Parent Trap continued to post in Speculation, mainly in the Edgic thread. Nonplussed by the refusal of others to share his devout belief that the editing showed Chris to be the winner, he quit posting in Speculation for good following that season's end.

The 2005 Baseball Season Thread

In early January 2005, That Chick From The Parent Trap began his most well-known thread. Disgusted by myriad threads of mostly pointless bickering between Boston Red Sox and New York Yankees fans, he started The 2005 Baseball Season Thread, a self-described place to "post predictions, talk about our teams, bitch and moan about prima dona players, etc". While sports threads had been around the OT forum since its inception, this was likely the first time someone had begun a thread for a specific entire season. Fellow baseball fans at OT began frequenting the thread and helped keep it near page 1 all season long.

Early on during the Spring Training season, That Chick From The Parent Trap became quite confident of the team the Chicago White Sox had put together for that season. A die-hard fan of the White Sox, he began to sense that they might be contenders for a championship if they could get a few breaks, he was sure they had the pitching that could take them a long way. He shared his thoughts with the other posters, but was mostly told he was delusional. In one memorable exchange, That Chick From The Parent Trap stated "WHAT WILL IT TAKE YOU TO BELIEVE THIS IS A GOOD TEAM???" and received the reply, "the 2005 world champion chicago white sox".

After sprinting out to a large lead by August, the Sox nearly blew the division to the Cleveland Indians but recovered to not only win the division but the AL Pennant and the World Series as well. About 2 weeks after the World Series, the thread was moved from the OT forum to Monster Island, giving That Chick From The Parent Trap his brightest moment at Survivor Sucks.

Splinterverse Wanderings (2005-2006)

For a time, That Chick From The Parent Trap became a full-fleged participant in the Splinterverse world. Initally unable to decide where he liked posting best between The Adminisphere, Board Name Goes Here and Island of Sardonica, he made several blunders and ended up persona non grata at the first two. In late 2005, That Chick From The Parent Trap was made an Administrator at IoS by AshBender. He proceeded to update the look and feel of the board and eliminated all previous changes made by UNGH when he was an Admin. Knowing that IoS would need something to keep posters coming back, That Chick From The Parent Trap drew upon his friendship with Vanillaslave and invited her to make IoS her hangout. She agreed, somewhat reluctantly, and began posting there almost exclusively.

In early 2006, That Chick From The Parent Trap made Vanillaslave an Administrator at IoS. In February 2006, he was removed as an Admin by AshBender following an incident of "abuse of admin powers". He was banned at IoS a few months later, mainly because he refused to stop complaining about the incident, but also because he would not follow the requests of the IoS admins. During many of his rants throughout the splinters, That Chick From The Parent Trap alienated people en masse. In fact, most people had still not even noticed That Chick From The Parent Trap more than in passing, but when he went stark-raving ranty, That Chick From The Parent Trap sealed his fate in the Splinterverse as a non-entity. He was unbanned in late 2007 by Foobarb, and returned for a while, then left when IoS became an MBA board. Following Vanillaslave's exit from IoS in August, 2008 they once again became public and That Chick From The Parent Trap became a member again.
That Chick From The Parent Trap has also been known to hang out at Public Bored before his untimely death.

A Familiar Face at OT (2006-Present)

Since being banned at IoS, That Chick From The Parent Trap has returned to full-fleged participation in the zany, offbeat, zoo-like atmosphere of Off Topic on a consistent basis. While the easiest place to find him is usually in a sports thread, he has been known to pop into almost any topic and offer up his particular brand of bullshit. His favorite thread of all time at Sucks is YOU'RE LIQUIFIED BITCH, a thread composed mostly of extraneous non sequiturs and one which he contributed to generously. He gets along with nearly everyone except the various incarnations of Urban Center, whom he despises for his sheer stupidity and arrogance.
