hello from a new guy

Postby wesley » Thu Jul 31, 2008 4:35 pm

I am currently going through the Ender series and noticed a mention of this site in the forward of Shadow Puppets. Thought I'd join up!

I'm a 29 year old library tech guy from Kentucky. Looking forward to fraternizing with you all.

I'll give you 5 quid, wesley, if you answer that with "As you wish."*

Oh dear me. Am I the only one that thought of Wesley Crusher, instead of the Dread Pirate?

No, I did too, but then Jan made a Princess Bride joke and I switched over to continue the funny.

I didn't think of either Dread Pirates or Trek boy. :(

but welcome, wesley, hope you like the place. It's just a forum now, but mayhaps in the distant future the site will rise again from the ashes, like Fawkes.

Wait. When he was saying "As you wish" what he meant was "I love you".

Are you hitting on my wife???
It's not "noob" to rhyme with "boob". It's "newbie" to rhyme with "boobie".

Seriously, what gives?

He should limit himself to hitting on Helen, like I do. Right, hot stuff? :wink:

Don't worry Wesley, we've all hit on Jan, it's really her fault for dressing so provocatively.
