Hello geekforum.org
« on: February 21, 2011, 09:31:56 PM »
I'm a 20 year old male.
In my leisure time I enjoy anime & visual novels, computer games and tabletop RPGs.

I am not much of a reader. I enjoy reading the newspaper and non-fiction, but novels tend to bore me.
I am currently playing League of Legends and Minecraft.
I currently am the dungeon master for a dungeons and dragons game.
If I had to say, I would be a Windows guy, but only because it can actually run software.
Firefox is better than Chrome because it as add-ons. I love my add-ons.
Google know where you live and all your favourite fetishes.
I don't watch much live action stuff, however I do love Firefly and it had probably ruined the sci-fi genre for me.
Last weekend I decided to wipe my hard drive and install a different OS, and did it in the same day. I tend to be impromptu like that.

Nice to meet you :-D.

Welcome! I will eat this bait right up.

You haven't read the right novels if they all bore you.
Mac OS and Linux can run software too! What do you think they're doing if not that?
Chrome has extensions which are like add-ons but called a different thing.
Google doesn't know my favourite fetish yet because there isn't a name for it.

I'm hoping to be the highest bidder on eBay for the naming rights.

It pleases me as long as it's you and not Greg doing it.  Oh and also you need to be wearing that corset that looks so good on you.  :w:

Yes, it lifts and separates my beer belly in a most provocative manner.

I don't hate all novels, and I'm sure I'm not reading the right ones. I'd say that classics are probably the best I have read.

I am aware that OS X and Linux can run software, please don't take me so literally  :-P. I just can't see myself running either of those as my primary OS without using Virtualbox on the side.

I suppose I prejudged Chrome, I tried it early on and it was somewhat lacking at the time, I'll give it a second chance :-D.

Hello,

Are you autistic? Oh what a silly thing of me to ask. We're all autistic on teh internetz.

I haven't been diagnosed with autism. I prefer being alone and don't make much eye contact, but I don't have anxiety.

I actually have a friend who is autistic, they have it tough.
