I'm shallow. I like your avatar. You're welcome.

I like your avatar too.. But I think there should be a restriction on introduction post length... damn...

Welcome to our house... and don't worry about the guards: they're here for our protection.. or so I've been told...

 

[XIII]

Hey . I've liked your posts so far; looking forward to reading more from you.

Welcome to our house... and don't worry about the guards: they're here for our protection.. or so I've been told...

What is with these masturbatory responses to new members? ''blahblahblah inside joke about the forum which you clearly aren't including in, being new''.

I'm sure that's not the conscious intention, but it's the effect (in many cases, perhaps not in the case of this specific member).

A simple welcome would far better, and far less alienating.

Do you need a drink? Perhaps a lie down?

I've run out of DMT. It's stressing me out.

in jules's defense, i think a cryptic inside joke is a far more interesting welcome than a simple one like, well . . . "welcome" :3

also overly-friendly extaverts mildly creep me out, but then again, who don't they creep out . .

it doesn't feel quite right to welcome someone with more posts than myself to the forum, but nevertheless, welcome dbell92 !!

*note to self: develop personal rules regarding welcoming etiquette

that was a reallllyyy long post...which was interesting to read it's actually kind of weird, due to the fact that I could relate to more than half of what you wrote. Welcome

We strive to be tactful, insightful and authentic.

Welcome Dbell.

(And the guard's joke is no insider's joke. we don't have any "guards" nor have made any jokes on guards. if anything, it's a spur of the moment nerdy joke. I chuckled :P )

Welcome. Long posts are good. Long posts are a staple of this community, and are always welcome (as long as they are in reasonably digestible paragraphs )

I've seen the zeitgeist video before, and although it has some points, it was indeed too insulting and plain wrong in some parts too. Provocative. I've always wondered what were the intentions of the creators.

I thought Jules there was taking a stab at good 'ol Perseus...

It's good to know there's people out there like me. I have learned to where a light mask around my peers and have fooled all but my closest of friends into thinking i'm a ragular immature boy. It can get quite suffocating at times... But such is life at my age. Haha sorry about it being so long. I really could think of no other way to describe myself.

...wow o.o this is pretty funny actually. I do the exact same thing! I can't really pass off as an immature girl, but still, I have managed to be more or less "normal". Perhaps this is the reason why I don't have any close friends- I have good friends, but not close ones

lol and why apologize? It was interesting.

Welcome to the forums. It's good to have you here.

 

[phantome]

Just not used to others like me i guess lol

Feeling is mutual XD

 

[Ulysses]

Dbell92 and I are destined to die in the same decade. The same goes for everyone else who is between 15-20.

 

[Kuu]

^ why would that be?

(If some transhumanists are right, some of those people might never die )

[Ulysses]

Do you bevieve 2012 is the apocolyps then?

No.

By the way, post #9 was quite foolish of you. You'll see why soon enough.

...Can I ask what happened here? I see lots of scorched earth / edited posts...
​

 

[Kuu]

Huh.

Apparently dbell92 was abducted by aliens, which then proceeded to erase most of his existence.

But really, wtf happened here? Ulysses seems to have some insider info...

Snowqueen, it's a symptom of Temporal Lobe Epilepsy, a condition with which I have been diagnosed.
