Hello weirdos
« on: Mon, 23 September 2013, 13:41:43 »
Hello fellow weirdos who would actually spend time a substantial amount of time on a forum dedicated to keyboards.

I actually joined 12 days ago, but I never posted anything in here. 

Plus, I need to get my post count up so I can post in the classifieds section and waste a ridiculous amount of money, and I figure this is a fairly legit way to do it.

I'm a Gemini, enjoy long walks on the beach (in Grand Theft Auto 5), and once jumped my souped up hot-rod from a five-story parking garage, over another building, and then landed without squishing any pedestrians.  That may also have been in GTA5.

Happy keyboarding :)

Welcome to GH.

Dunno about calling us weirdos. 

Get your posts up, and buy some stuff.

Welcome to GeekHack.

We are not weird, it's the others that are weird not loving keyboards.

And don't worry about your post count, in 6 months you will ask yourself why it is so damn high already!

The weirdos thing was just a joke :)  Self-deprecation and all that.

I'm sure most of you are fine, upstanding citizens.

Well, I don't want to make a big deal about it, but self-deprecation is making fun of oneself.  When you make fun of somebody else, it's called an insult.  But obviously, since you joined this forum, I assume that you did not intend to insult the members here with one of your first 20 posts, so I guess it was just an awkward phrase.  Unless you are trying to tell us that you are going to be a troll.

If you're joining a community that you're calling "fellow weirdos," you are then calling yourself a weirdo, so I get the self-deprecation. Just wanted to point out that not all of us are overly sensitive and offended by your humor here.

This reply serves as a way for me to get up to the pointless post requirement myself, so I can also be a part of the classified section.   :)

Thanks, that was indeed my intent :)

Next time I call a bunch of strangers weirdos, I'll be sure to insert "fellow"!
