New around here? Want to introduce yourself? Here's a thread! Or if that whole practice makes you want to disappear, uh...Make someone up, or introduce your pet instead!

Whatever floats your boat, and hey, if you have a boat, introduce that boat!

Oh, and before I forget (again), I've written a relatively brief FAQ to help folks find their way around here.

And now I just realized I've cursed myself with this thread to introduce myself...

So, hey! I'm an internet person that's floated around etherspace awhile, not that long, but at least long enough that I remember ol' forums and stuff like StumbleUpon. I've moderated a couple forums before and typically take a more hands-off approach to things.

I'm into some webcomics and really enjoy reading, but I'm also really bad/good about both getting a bunch of books & making lists of books to read and just kind of sporadically reading some of them. I dabble in a lot more, but this is me trying to keep it brief, so I'm stopping here. 😜
