Title: Howdy All
Post by: Cogidubnus on October 22, 2006, 12:45:45 AM
 You may have seen me posting here and there around these fora for a bit now, but I never did make a introduction thread, so here it is.

  I stumbled on DMFA a few days ago, and fell in love with it. I figured that it might not be a bad idea to join the forum. Thus far, I've seen nothing but 80's pop culture references, pirates, ninjas, CT emoticons, starcraft references, and repeated allusions to the attractions of communist russia.

This place rules. :boogie

If you didn't make an introduction thread, you could have just blended in with the rest of us.  I wouldn't have noticed you were new at all. :lol

Welcome! :)

Eh. I figured it was the thing to do.

  And, uh, thanks for the lei! I think. Will it kill me? :<

... No, I guess it doesn't. But it does make me wonder; will you still be getting the coffee cup? *waits to find out*

Oh, right, welcome aboard!

No, the lei won't hurt you. I got the thing from this really grumpy octo in a grass skirt that just wouldn't stop grumbling. I got sick of it and kicked it upside the head. All the other octos around just danced the hula in celebration and handed me even more leis. I still got a few more.

Hi, welcome to the forum. By now you shouldn't need the normal warnings we give newbies so just stay out of trouble or, if you absolutely must do silly things like eat the muffins, at least make it amusing so we can all laugh and point ;)

Well... let's see... I'm all for the ninjas and the 80's are always fun to laugh at, but you wouldn't come further from commie Russia than me, and I once abused a cosplayer severely with a plastic lightsaber after being accosted by star-wars fans at a premiere. They left in a hurry.

And as for starcraft... Need I say more than that I am able to pull off a rather nasty Hydralisk imitation, and can flex my nice and long tongue up so that when I speak I sound like I'm infested?

Suddenly, a motley crew of infested terrans and hydralisks pop up behind Stygian, bearing posters that read among other things; DO RUSH!, FOR THE OVERMIND!, and HEADCRABS ARE YOUR FRIENDS!

Someone mention coffee mugs?

Ah, so this is why I don't remember seeing your intro thread before. I thought I'd missed it.

Okay, you've been here long enough to know how it all works, so we can skip that part.

And yes, you do get the souvenir coffee mug. Here you go. *hands over a souvenir coffee mug*

Enjoy.

There we go, it's not official without the coffee mug. Makes me wish I made an intro topic. Is there a gift shop where I can get those?

*pops back in*

Gift shop? Not as far as I know... You didn't get one? Oh, that's right, you didn't make an intro thread.

Never mind - here you go. *gives DigitalMan a souvenir coffee mug*

No. They are very much thesame. I simply do not want to upset mods (eyes Darkmoon) with some of the more disturbing pics and accounts that I could have conjured up, since I don't exactly seem to be in their good graces... Frankly, I'm feeling a bit under pressure and too tired to think coherently as well, so I simply don't want to get in trouble with some abusive mod wh...

Teabagging: the act of a man placing his genitals, specifically the scrotum in the mouth of another person. The practice vaguely resembles dipping a teabag into a cup of tea.

Hmm. My understanding of the meaning was the second definition there in wikipedia (hit google, type in teabagging, and hit "I'm feeling lucky" because you sure as heck won't be :-) so I guess I learnt something today... :-)
