Tell us about the under 20 crowd
posted Tuesday, September 21, 2004 - 03:13 AM (#20153)
Zamphir having failed miserably to attract any newbs to his open thread, lets try something a little more focused.

Under 20 posts : Tell us about yourself. Not long, boring obvious stuff, but why we might find you interesting. What are your hobbies, what are the stupidest things you've ever done, basically what makes you different to the next Joe. We *do* want to meet some new folks, honest.

Over 20 posts : Play nice, these guys are going out on a limb here. And no posting until the under 20s say something interesting.

Cheers,
Graham

Umm...

Well...

Hrm...

I am boringly knowledgable about arcane/obscure tidbits of information, and have an annoying habit of being right when it comes to trivia contests, etc. At least, I perceive it as annoying to others, although I'm sure it's just my insecurity showing through. Related irritating skill - I am very good at searching on the Internet for said tidbits.

I also read far too many "children's" books for an adult, although currently I'm reading Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell by Susanna Clarke.

I am a crafting geek - currently I am into stained glass.

Stupidest thing I've ever done - there are so many it's difficult to choose. Maybe I'll share that once I get a little braver.

Anyway, that's me.

A.

Neil Gaiman was talking that book up the other day - is it actually any good?

Cool. My wife went through a stained glass phase a few years back - we still have a mirror in need of some solder and a frame. What are you making?

That's okay - just tell us about all of them. *grin*

You really want to know? ok!

Let's see.

Born in Hong Kong, raised in NYC, now in college in LA. Majoring in Architecture.

People call me a twinkie sometimes. Yellow on the outside white inside.

According to Dynedain, he called me his significant other aka I got dirt on him. Just kidding babe, but don't forget to defrost the cornish game hen in the freezer for dinner tonite since I know you will be reading this.

Both Dynedain and Clanhanna are my brothers. We are from the same Fraternity. Yes I'm a girl and no you're not seeing things. This one is co-ed. They might have mentioned it previously somewhere.

If you've really got dirt on Dynedain... or Clan_Hanna for that matter... I could probably be convinced to trade GoatsGear for compromising photos...

Cornish Game Hen? Wuss.

They were cheap! 2 for $4

That was cheaper than chicken at that price.

Whoa! She actually signed in?

No longer the lonely goatherder, eh?

Oh... and, I wouldn't count on the compromising photographs. To be compromising, we'd have to be embarrassed about them.

Oooo. Good point.

Dynedain wasn't embarrassed about his Halloween costume last year, so likely nothing.

She probably wants a new OCL shirt.

By the way... that .sig she has is completely untrue. Dynedain's got toothmarks in his shoulder to prove it.

I'm an aspiring director/screenwriter. I live in Brooklyn, NY. Recently I've been trying to turn a story that I wrote a while ago into a comic, and it's going pretty well. Nothing is up yet, but in a few weeks it will be...

And that's pretty much it. Oh yeah, I'm a j00.
