Speaking my mind...

[HiRo11er]

Aaaah, I feel like I've finally found the place to go...
All right, summary. I just got a new job (temp-job) at this interior design company. Now, I've got the PC right in my face, a never-ending coffee-machine two yards away from me, and a web browser that refuses me access to f. ex. hotmail (I don't know if it filters out porn as it should, because I don't really surf porn while sitting at a reception desk...).
Anyway, my point is that I have very little work to do, & few web pages that can help me through the day. So, my days are usually filled with me scouring the morrowind-forum for new posts. Unfortunately, the traffic there has slowede down a lot lately, and you can only discuss the same thing -so- many times.
Therefore, I am very happy that I found my way to this little place, because all you guys post like madmen!! I was gonna be the first to reply to a thread here, only to be disctracted by about 20 minutes of work. After that time I look back to see about 15 posts already!
I guess I'm just stoked that I might actually have something to keep me busy while (supposedly) working! Watch out for threads ranging from the feasibility of having everyday items grafted to one's body for maximum convenience, to, well, this kind of BS...
Nice to finally have found you guys!

PS: It's slightly sad to admit that close to every one of my posts have been in the Morrowind forums... It's about time I expanded my horizons!

Nice thing to hear that things are doing well for you.

But i would have question for you.

1. You stated that you dont watvh porn while working, but what do you do on freetime if we don't count porn? I don't mean to offend you, i just got curios.

2. So you are only pretendng to work right? So as far as i know that realy isn't best way to keep your work.

Welcome to SYM...please choose your straightjacket color, and watch out for rabies and dystentery.

Don't feel bad...I started out on the BGII forum, and ended up here eventually. I probably should have stayed in BGII.

I maximum respect the marriage of gangsta and l33t in your screen-name

[HiRo11er]

Well, Fwel, I was wondering how long it would take before someone commented on that vague comment...
Actually, my free-time doesn't revolve around porn (as it might seem with my unfortunate choice of words). Us being six friends living together, the free time is rarely there for such private means of entertainment. We don't have a TV either, which means we have a lot of time for ... games. Yes, games ranging from blood bowl to chez geek to texas hold'em to trivial pursuit to magic:the gathering... We're all gamers, I guess.

Now, as far as keeping my job is concerned, I don't care. Or it's not that i don't care, but that it doesn't matter. I'm here for another week and a half. Now, my job is to sit at this desk and answer phones. i can't leave the desk out of fear of missing a phone call. That's my job. To sit here. So when there are no phone calls, I either read online papers or post random thoughts on forums. I kinda like the latter...

@ Chanak: I'll go for the lily-white kind with baloons on it, and I've had my rabies shot. I should be set. You seem to hit the nail on the head, though. From my initial browse here there seems to be a bunch of ... 'alternative' people hanging out here. Right up my alley, in other words...

[HiRo11er]

Hehe... Thanks, frogus...
You know it's all about keeping it r33l...

[frogus23]

Agreed. sux0r /\/\Cs often need to get ca|?|?3d in the kn33s, h0m13.

[Xandax]

Ahem.... refrain from using leet speak as a means of communication (amongst other things because "l33t sp34k sux0r teh m4><)
I know you guys are just haveing a laugh, but it is a poor trend to start down on - and could quickly spread to other real languages.

English is the languaged used for communication across this forum.

[frogus23]

You are swift and vigilent Xandax, good job.

And I bet you could out-hack my hacker skills blindfoled

[HiRo11er]

Just for the record, I have no idea what has been said the last few posts...
Maybe it's cuz i'm Norwegian, or maybe I'm just not trendy enough. I should work on it, i guess. Lord knows you're not cool before you speak leet (sp?)...

[Ideal Maxima]

Hey Hi Ro11er,
I remember you from the Morrowind forums. You probably don't recognize, me. I used to be Darc_Elv_Nyte, but you probably don't remember him either. Well, I'm glad to see you in SYM now.

Don't worry, I started out in the Morrowind Forums, and expanded to SYM, too. Hmm, perhaps you'd like to check out the Banshee-Specific Dictionary for all our SYMian slang, and nicknames for eachother.

You say your Norwegian? There are 2 other members on SYM that are from Norway (that I know of atleast) Fiberfar and Yeltsu

[HiRo11er]

Hey max.
Yeah, I remember you. Probably more as ideal max than the dark elv, but hey. It's kinda hard to not notice a person with 1200+ posts to hi name...

I think I'm getting into the vernacular here... Growing pains at first, but as long as it's not MSN-speak in here I'm happy!

Regarding nationalities, it seems like there's a fair bunch of them around 'ere. Not too many Asians, though, from what I've figured. Asians! You out there?

[Ideal Maxima]

I'm Asian. From Bangladesh, actually.

[arno_v]

Welcome back Hiro11er I still remember you from the days I posted in the Morrowind forums.

Isn't there a thread or poll where the SYMians are from? (ofcourse one can look it up in the updated analogy sticky or something, but.... well.)
If it isn't yet, I'd be willing to make one. Me is bored anyway.
