Hello mah fellow geeks. Umm... I'm Merc. I've had variations of the name for the last couple of years, but Merc is the key point to any online name I pick up. I was browsing around, found some funny shit here, checked out the forum, and wadda ya know. Now I'm joining up.

Well, yeah. Hello is all I have to say right now I guess. Oh, and Hi :)

Thank you Dark Shade. I've found the topics most entertaining. Since I'm one of the geeks that likes to stay home all day, I don't get to see much that makes me laugh now days. *shrugs* Well, after going over a few of the other hellos from various newbs such as myself, I guess I should explain myself abit more.

Umm, to start, I live in California, Los Angeles to be more particular. Don't worry... I know the whole online privacy thing, and I'm no fool to proper online behavior. L.A. is a big place though, so I dare a stalker to try to find me. :P Any who... I love RTS, RPG, FPS, and well... every other three/four letter abbreviation of nerdom. I'm a huge RPGer though, through and through. I play a few games, but since I'm new and all, I'm not going to go about shoving names in peoples faces. I do have my (un)healthy addictions though, and if people ask, I'd gladly share them with ya.

Umm... I don't support Bush, I think Dick has a shitty aim and I'm happy he's not a soldier, and I support gay/lesbian activists. Umm... not the naked kind that run around ya know, I have too many friends like that as is. One's enough I tell ya...

So yeah, thats me in a fairly long nutshell. I do try to stay to the humorous side of things, in case you didn't notice. If you didn't... I think I should try less dry humor. *shrugs* My social skills aren't exactly my prime point though, so please do forgive me. I'll slide back into talking to more then three humans again. Yep, so I'm off before I piss off an admin.

Hello.  Welcome.

Do you come in multiple sizes in order to accommodate the needs of all users?

*scratches his head* Well... I come in skinny, chubby, and obese. I've found that I'm most enjoyable when in the chubby phase, also known as 'fluffy'. :) Umm, I do try to accommodate a lot of people though. I know every one isn't like me, and that I've never been the person I am. If thats what you were getting at that is... if not, then yes, I do come in many sizes. I still do prefer extra-large though...

Yes, I do read posts. I am not always active on forums, but I RP alot, so I know that to carry on any good conversation, you need to read whats already been said. Its pointless to chat about something if no one even knows whats being discussed. Its like two deaf guys talking to each other with words. Mind you, they can't read lips either. Its just pointless, and almost impossible.

Any who, I thought I'd log in and see what was going on. I'm now off to the jolly ol' work.... *coughs and shuffles out slowly*

Thank you. I don't think I've had this nice of a greeting since I joined a clan ohh..... 3 years ago I think. Ohh, and my ex-g/f. That was a nice greeting. Ok, now I'm off to work for sure.

We already know where you live, and now we know who you work for.

What do you do for sure?

I wouldn't be worrying about that, Merc. You're doing a fantastic job of introducing yourself and getting to know some of us here.

Thanks for your story! Like Chris said, I'm sure you'll fit right in here.

Oh, for fuck sake!  Stop kissing the little dweeb's ass!  He's just another stupid fucking newbie that doesn't deserve the value of our attention.  Get over him.  He'll be gone in a week just like all of the othe...

huh? 

Oh. 

There's no flaming in the Newbie area? 

Ok. 

I'll shut up, now.

Ok, in all honesty, how come it always ends up that I'm kissing your ass? *looks around* BizB, say something so I can kiss your ass too.  :-D *shrugs* Tucker Max is still awesome though, whether it happens to be Dark Shade who also likes him. I hope I run into him at work... that would be awesome.

*scratches his head* I'd have to say Tucker Max. I live in the LA area, and work at a job where you have to deal with a LOT of customers. Chances are, sooner or later I'll see the guy. Dark Shade... well I make it a rule of thumb to never meet someone I know online unless I know them very well and have a friend with me. I also hardly know any of you yet to be honest... give me a month. I know, Mr. Max is online, but Ron Jeremy is in movies, and I still got to meet him. Well... my step-dad did, I was too young and naive to understand WHY Mr. Jeremy was such a big deal.
