he made 75, the lady lost 85, he had to give her extra 10, turns out she had lost 95 so he got 10 more. then the vase broke ^^

*getting back on topic* real pity they don't show much stuff like this in germany. i have to search for the IT crowd on youtube. mostly germans have their own soaps or american sitcoms.
but i have to add, i also love the guy who plays baldrick in balckadder - what's his name? tony robinson or sth isn't it?

My real name is Tom. But i'll change it to Mazer, when i can (joke). Because i've been Mazer everywhere on the internet since i was 10. And i've got internet only when i was 12 (I don't think it's funny, although it had to be).
I'm 15 years old, but many people think i'm like 18 or so, when they see me first time. Others also say i'm smarter than i look. ...So i comes up that i'm smarter than a 18 years old guy, though i'm oly 15. But enough about that.
My passion is football. There's nothing better than football, ecept listening to metal while playing football. :D Also i love riding a bike and playing guitar.
And that's it. I were writing books when i was a child (I called those "thin notebooks full of little stories" things as books, imagine that :shock: .I'm still proud of them though :P). 2 years ago i started making "cartoons" related to Oblivion, but finished this activity at 2008 April. Now I'm creating music. I call it "progressive ambient metal" style music. Soon i'll release my very first album :P
And that's it about me. Told more than expected already :)

Alrighty here we go. Ill try not to ramble, but im sure i will.

Im 22yrs old ill be 23 in october. I was born and raised a christian, although since the age of maybe 20ish i kind of strayed from the religion. I was fortunate enough to have a very close and loving family. My family is a typical blue collard middle class american family. Very down to earth good people. They are the typical example of "southern hospitality." Anyone of us will give you our shirt off our back.

I consider myself a true american patriot. I say true for many reasons. I strive to find the truth behind everything. I find the things that most americans ignore. (Obviously im having to tiptoe through this so bear with me.) I really want to elaborate on this because probably none of you will understand what im getting at, theres several things. PM me if youre really curious and you want a lecture. 99% of american so called patriots will hate me for what i say about my country and give me the typical "well if you dont like it here then leave" response. The reason i dont is because i want to fix the errors i find. Also i truly love most americans. However i do plan on moving to england at some point when im more stable financially.

I love traveling. I think its somewhat important. Its good to get out of ones country to see how others are. See how their morals are and their ways of life. It can open your eyes to a lot of things, it really makes you think. This is one of my biggest life goals, to travel the world and live in many different countries before i settle down.

Ive been referred to as a jack of all trades but i absolutely hate that description. I want to know everything, and be able to do everything absolutely perfectly. Will i ever achieve this? Maybe not, but ill try real hard and by the time im 40 i will be better than 99% of my peers.

In my spare time i mainly do things to improve myself. Sometimes i work out, by that i dont mean lifting weights. Sometimes i do, generally it involves practicing martial arts or some cardio work or toning up workouts like push ups, pull ups, etc.

I also do a lot of reading. I enjoy it, generally though its not for enjoyment. I like to read to increase my knowledge of whatever particular subject im investigating. A lot of it is american history and politics. Other than that i read a lot about religion and ancient history. Ancient egypt fascinates me to no end. Greek, roman, and chinese history i also like.

When it comes to art i dont consider myself artistic. I can play the guitar to an extent, i dont consider myself very good though. I say that for several reasons, 1 because im not, 2 because i know a ton of musicians that are amazing guitar players, 3 because i cant stand the fact that everyone knows somebody that plays the guitar and when given the guitar you realize all that person can do is cover a couple rock songs. Then you discover they have a library of tab books. So i just tell most people i dont play, but i practice it a good deal until im confident enough that i can do more than play a few crowd pleasers.

I dont go out too often. Maybe 2-3 times a week. I do that to save money. When i do go out its something like the pool hall or a concert or something. I go to the bar from time to time, but when i do i usually end up playing people on the pool table so its kinda pointless. However we do have a local irish pub which is different and i really like that bar compared to the other stereotypical bars.

When it comes to my personality i guess im a bit odd. Generally im a very nice guy. A strange little thing about me is i truly could care less if someone is trying to push my buttons, but when i see it happen to my friends i get really upset. I never did quite understand this because my friends arnt fragile, we all have very thick skin, but hey thats just me. I really love my friends a lot. If someone watches our dialog from an outside point of view youd think we were enemys. Its fun when we are sitting next to each other at a bar talking trash to each other and the bar tender is amazed that we arnt fighting each other. Really its just that we can appreciate good jokes and its never personal.

Ive earned the nickname tyler durden from when ive had too much. Ive never hurt anyone else like this that i recall. It started as me having a friend punch me as hard as he could in the stomach because i bet him $10 he couldnt knock the wind out of me. Indeed i do dumb things while under the influence. We all do though.

I could keep going, because im obsessed with myself. But this is by far the longest post ive ever made so ill stop here. If i have any little things i think of later ill post them.

Things you probably didn't know about Mrs T:

She's really 16 years old, though some people thought she was closer to 25

She has just started the IB programme and will therefore not have a social life from now on

She doesn't actually drink tea but has decided to become addicted to Jolt Cola in order to pass IB

Might add more later...

Me and one of my friends at work are like that, our entire friendship is based on making jokes at each other's expense! And annoyingly she's better at it than me.

Yes, Yes, and Yes. Everything in this quote describes both of us. Also, this might be interesting to know, but did you know OKC's nickname is called "The Big Friendly". Yes it is and we're proud of it! Good old Southwest ordeals. I've heard so many stories where one of my friends or teachers went to a northeastern state and tried to talk to people, but they acted like my friends were dead, just walking by without even looking at them. I've also met quite a few people that moved from New England and exclaimed how friendly everyone was here in the southwest. I really love living here.


One more thing to know about me is that I practically have a phobia of egotism and selfishness.

I've often thought that when I'm old enough to move away I'd go to live in Japan... Of course, I can't tell when that will be or if it will be possible at all. :?

Well from what I know about Japan, having a permanent residence there and eventually becoming a citizen takes a while. You must continue to renew your status regularly, can never get in trouble, never plot against the government, and have to be able to support yourself. And in about ten years, you can become Japanese.

I am 18, I'm a male, I live in New Hampshire, and I have graduated from High School. I have been in 14 or 16 of the 50 states in America. I'm into rock, hard rock, and most types of Metal. My real name is Kerry (Parents have their own versions of who I'm named after :P ).

I like to read books and collect swords. I am currently reading a 16 part series (Left Behind), and am on book 4, and LOTR (Lord of the Rings). I have four swords and a bayonet. One is a Samurai sword, one is a Chinese ceremonial sword, one a Pakistani battle sword, and the other I'm not quite sure of.

I have been to two concerts in my life so far. First concert was in Mesa, Arizona at the Cricket Wireless Pavilion. The band KoRn headlined. Second was in Mansfield, Massachusetts at the Comcast center. The band Disturbed headlined. Both concerts were awesome. :)

I'm currently looking for a job, eying a dietary aid job in a rehab and nursing home (First job ever). For anyone who's curious, starting pay would be $9 an hour with benefits. My dream job is in the Graphic Arts field. I plan to use the money I use in my possible first job to but the programs, CS3 Photoshop, CS3 In-Design, CS3 Dream Weaver, and CS3 Flash Animations. I plan on learning them real well so I have an advantage when I seek to further my education in that field. I might also buy Vectorworks. But all programs will run me about 1k each, and I also plan on getting a new computer that will run around 1k to 1.5k to run the programs to the best of their extent and for other reason (Current computer is.....Meh)

I am the Head Moderator for my online group (Dark PerFectioN).


And that's all I think should be said.

Well my real name is ben, but people generally call me drake or thor, the latter being given to me by some girls in my class, anyway, I'm 15, my father (who once in a blue moon gets on to look at the forums, he is also a gamer and loves oblivion) was in the U.S. army airborne until I was 13.

He's taught me shooting which I've acquired quite the skill with, I collect ammunition and other war artifacts. Me and my dad both love tanks, he had the opportunity to get the empty shell of a Panzer MK IV, but we wouldn't have found an engine or been able to pay to have it restored, which is rather depressing. I've been thinking about the airborne for my future job, as my family has a long tradition of airborne soldiers stretching back to the very first soldiers. I am fascinated by European history, in particular, Germany's history, my favorite figure being Otto von Bismarck. I love reading, just finished The Young Hitler I knew and Rise and Fall of the Third Reich. I have quite an extensive collection as said above of ammunition, and, in particular, knives, bayonets, and my most prized piece, or my dad's purchase, my finding, an authentic Lee Enfield rifle.

Ok, here I go,

Real name's disclosed...sorry, but ya' know...Internet and all...

Age is also disclosed, but so of you may know, I announced it a while back...


Anywho,

My intrestes are Video Games, Ripsticking (The 'art' of riding a Ripstick), and Art. I usually spend my time on the internet, or playing outside. I'm acctually quite popular in school and such, but I tend to keep to myself (If that makes sense...). I listen to almost everything except heavy metal, and rap (sorry!). I'm NOT a veggie. But, I would definitly become one...ya' know, If I liked meat less. So, thats me in a nutshell, (Although, I prefer Chips as a travel snacks, not Nuts :wink: )
...and diplomacy continues to fail. Their ears fall deaf, and their eyes fall blind, yet they are still not mute. They will not know their errors. Only what they believe themselves. But we... we shall not be silenced.

OK, here goes:

My name is Kirk. I'll be 40 in about a month and a half. That sounds old, doesn't it? I don't feel any older than 28 or so, though. Maybe it's because of my (self-diagnosed) Peter Pan Syndrome.

I'm a dad to two small children, and my wife is a writer (maybe I should put a link to her website in my sig? What say you, mods/admins?).

I was born in Kansas, grew up in Missouri, and now I live in Kentucky. I've been to most of the lower 48 states, and to Ontario and Quebec. I'd really like to see British Columbia, Oregon, and Washington, though.

I'm a college graduate (I majored in geography and minored in agronomy), and am gainfully employed in the environmental/planning department of a fair-sized architecture/engineering firm.

Dang, that would have been cool. I've got a couple of antique Mauser rifles. I'm a bit of a military buff myself, although my particular tastes run toward aircraft.
