Hey there. Instead of writing something that's amazing and is going to get me out of that "newbie veil" in say a few minutes, I'm afraid creativity has vacated my mind. Thus, I am left with the only alternative: to explain my interests, hobbies and whatever else is dull to you guys.

So, I write (seriously, you never saw that comin', didya?). I write satirical stuff, but I'm a newb to the genre, so don't expect anything amazing just yet. I'm a big gaming fan, though I try to balance gaming with social life, reading, homework and all sorts of stuff. But usually the great enemy in the West, Procrastination, rears its head (shove over Sauron, there's a new kid on the block). I'm into techno and electronic music, a big Daft Punk fan. As for location and looks... well, we'll see once I've gotten to know you guys better.

And there you have it. Oh, and by the way, I ain't a newb to writing sites, I'm already a member on a few others (on one I'm the oldest oldie there, besides the admins), so don't give me any special treatment, heheh.

Ciao!
Stop staring at my signature.

Hi there!

Welcome to YWS!

I hope you have as much fun as you had in other writing sites. I hope you'll have MORE fun too!

Anyway, since you're a newb here in YWS, check out the FAQ. It's on the Welcome Page. Also, you have to read the site's rules and guides. It's located there on the Help and Support wiki on the header. WE have a rule that says you have to make 2 reviews first before you post anything. Please kindly follow this rule. And when you're done with that, try to keep up with a 2:1 review-post ratio.

If you have any questions, feel free to PM me!

See ya around!

Well, hello there, Floyd!

I like your username. And signature. And I'm sorry I stared at it for a while.

Really, I feel guilty about starting sentences with "and" and "but" :( And I'm sure everyone hates it about me. (Or not.) But I can't stop. It's what I do.

I just found today that Demeter was the goddess of pigs. Charming.

Sorry, I'm just random. Ignore me.

Satirical stuff? Awesome. I'm going to like you. Hopefully we'll see your stuff soon!

PM me if you need anything, or just want to chat. I'm here. Or at least try to be, since I've been so a horrible YWSer lately, I haven't been on for ages. Anyways. I'll see you.

Hiya-

You know, I could tell before you said it, that you would be a satyrical type writer. I am too sometimes. I have a very dry sense of humor that sometimes only I see as funny. But I kind of like that about myself, my very cynical self haha.

So I'm going to throw some "welcome" confetti at you and get it over with.

I don't think I was ever treated like a newbie on the site, so I try not to treat others like that. I don't even know why there is this whole "newbie" thing. Like "Oh, there is a newb, let's jump it!" Honestly?

Anyways let me know if you need a review, I have a little section in the "Will review for food" forum.

I suggest that one day you just sit down and do a whole bunch of reviews and go to all the forums and check out everything. That is the best way to 1. get people to like you and 2. get to know your way around the site. Seriously everyone will love you if you review their stuff.

I notice you have kept up the 2:1 post review ration...brava.

Have a swell day and let me know if you need anything.
