Hi there! Please allow me to introduce myself
« on: 21 Nov 2012, 16:53 »
Long time QC-addict, slightly shorter time lurker in the forum.

What to say? I'm 30-something, male, science geek, player of (roleplaying) games and vegetarian. My favorite QC character may well be Penelope, in her Pizza Girl costume, with Hannelore and Emily close seconds. I thoroughly enjoy the discussion in the forum, which is one of the most civilized I have ever seen on the internet. This week's discussion about trans* issues finally convinced me to register as a member.

Convinced Penelope really is Pizza Girl, eh?

Pen is obviously Pizza girl. Gosh. :-P (Actually, that has never been confirmed/ denied...)

Welcome to the forums sir! It is good to see that you have a healthy respect for Hanners. Very good... :psyduck:

Well, apart from the strip in which Pizza Girl delivers to Penelope.

But see, that may have been a cover up created by Pen. Remember, it was just a story.  :wink:

This one, which may well be my favorite QC strip of all time. But that story is obviously a fabrication. Come on, what are the odds? Would you believe such blatant lies when they are told to you? We have been deceived, people! Open your eyes, see the Truth!

Please allow me to introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
I've been around for a long, long year
Stole many a man's soul and faith
And I was 'round when Jesus Christ
Had his moment of doubt and pain
Made damn sure that Pilate
Washed his hands and sealed his fate
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name

I just knew somebody had already did it, but then I saw they hadn't, and I was pleased.

Welcome, new person!

"Civilized" is very important to us here. It is, however, tempered with large doses of silliness.
