Run-of-the-mill new-member 'Hi!'

Raederle · 01-23-2006, 10:27 AM

Wandered over here from Fark, liked what I saw enough to register and drop everyone a line saying 'Hi!'.

I'll probably be very quiet until I know my way around a little better. However, you guys seem to be relatively kind to newbies so I wanted to introduce myself. I live in Seattle, WA... I do development for a small company that drives me mad with stress (mad!) but allows me to work from home, so it's a bit of a tradeoff.

In my off-hours I generally do a lot of walking around the city when I'm not playing PC/console games. Also a big big reader. That description probably matches a large segment of the population around here

Welcome!

All you Farkers may be a bit confused at the lack of "First Boobies" posts here. A bit more substance here, from what I recall of Fark. Although I stopped going to Fark once I found the Cellar, so I can't say what it's like now.

Raederle · 01-23-2006, 10:55 AM

It's probably more or less unchanged, maybe with slightly different cliches.

Though I saw the ad on Fark, I can't really call myself a Farker, having never actually registered there. My net presence is generally pretty low-key, with this being an exception.

I do fark and cellar. Fark for the sarcasm and photoshops, here for the community.

Seattle? Another Wobblie.

Wecome to the Cellar, Raederle.

Glad you came the fark over. Generally Cellarites are 'real people'. Enjoy the ride.
