Welcome, mistur.

See, I didn't make him, but he was in the humor section so much that I figured he ought to have his own name.

Welcome, and good for both of you. Account sharing is a big nono.

Hello,
Just want to start somewhere.

Hey all, I too need somewhere to start, I've been a long time lurker but I've decided to start contributing to the board :)

Same here. Looooonnnggg time lurker, now it's time to participating.

Same as above really, now got the free time on my hands to spend on this board, can't wait to get to know the people on here especially as most are from the US :)

Hey, newbie here. Got the link from a friend tonight, looking forward to the board.

Welcome all you new folks!

Hello
 

Hi there... new in town....

I just staggered in,and Ya'll are making me quite comfy here.... thank you.<3 How do I get my picture to go with my name?Anyone?

Welcome to all the new people. :)

From this thread:

I am a new one.

I enjoy the following things:

String cheese
Mike Patton
Tool
Black Holes/Physics
Horror Movies (Zombies/Undead)
Programming
Linux
Video Games

I don't know karate, but I know what it is.

I work about 100 feet from a Funeral Home, therefore, I think it would be wise to make an evacuation chart for my office in the event of an attack from the undead.

I wish I had walkie talkes for today, April Fool's Day. I would've stuck one in the ceiling tiles of my office above my boss' desk and used the other to make whisper sounds calling his name like some kind of ghost. No one would ever figure that out. No one.

yo..im the new guy, and i rock

Yet another new guy. From Philly. What up ya'll?

Hi!!!!
 

Hey everybody :) Just found this place through Fark and i cant believe it took me this long to find it :p

I have been so bored by all the usual places i visit. but now i found TFP!!!

This is simply a GREAT place!!!! Thanks for being here and i look forward to seeing and reading. :)

Goodness - quite a few newbies! Ogma, speedoit, rummey, rush, enigma, mystic and mobo (whew!) welcome! Glad to have you aboard. We hope you enjoy yourselves - feel free to ask if you have any questions.

Toss another newbie on the pile.

My name is Scott, and I'm 24, male, and living in 'Sunny' Ottawa, Ontario.

Wow--that was totally an 'ASL' sentence. Never done that before...

I'm a wannabe writer (of which the internet is choc-full, I'm sure you've noticed) and I update several websites on a 'semi-regular' [:rolleyes:] basis, but I make my daily bread by working for a graphics & imaging company.

Hopefully my logorrheic tendencies won't cause me any harm at this board, but from what I've seen thus far, I somehow doubt they will.

Anyway, I'm off to go explorin'.

I be new. Shiny newborn kind of new.
I'm a 29 year old man. I have a 8M old son and a wife. Currently I reside in the denver metro area. Please forgive the random nonsense that leaps forth through my keyboard. My brain is still recovering from college.

*waves*

Hello all, I am also a newbie, to this forum anyway. Can't wait to dive in and have fun. Thanks to a friend for the link to here.

Oh yeah, I'm Ryn, 30, from Seattle, WA.

Tilted past 49 degrees!
 

Livin' in Vancouver BC Canada...
In a big ol' Brick house which was like no other house...
It was Dirty Blue Hip and the funkiest house on the block!
The Brickhouse grew and soon became infested with tiny little musical creatures who bonded together.
The intensity of the house reached a critical point...
I decided to jump out of the spotlight and into the workings of the house!
Lights, Sound and Music filled every corner!
It was time to share this magic with the people...
Now when the people hear and see these musical creatures,
They make LOUD noises and DRINK heavily!



Now venturing into my 30's
I live in a corner apartment in East Van...
and have gone from Roadie to the more politically correct term "Theatre technician!"
But still I tell people "I am but a mere janitor in the Ivory tower of Art!"

And here I am just ~:BClonghair:~ :suave:
Thanks to my friend Robbie for some help with the intro

Hi, my name is Mark, and I'm from California. Not too many boards on the net have intelligent discussion, so I figured I'd try this one out.

/salute

im a noob
 

hello to all, hope i can be of service

hello noob, welcome to the TFP :)

Enjoy your stay, it's a nice place here.

Boo.

I got bored doing my taxes and found my way in here. I haven't had time to post or chat anywhere in quite some time (over a year). Maybe I'll fall in here for a while.

I'm Palladiate (as with any MMORPG screen name, it's some barely pronouncible name, minus the pronouncible syllables). I work as a corporate 'ho at Krispy Kreme doing basically anything my bosses ask- things like software development, database management, etc. It's amazing that a company so large survives on zero IT support.

Before that, I ran websites for gaming guilds. I've played online games since before I can remember, and it feels wierd even getting online anymore. Damn you Krispy Kreme!

Nice meeting you all!

My name is SpecialComics because that's what my comic book company is called. I'm a writer. I found my way here when I should have been working on the next issue. Any way....hello everybody!

Hello, my friend told me about this website and I enjoyed it so I joined. I was wondering if there is somewhere I can go to find common acronyms and slang used. I tried searching, but to no avail.
