Title: Hey.
Post by: Detachable Felix on 10 Jan 2014, 21:55
So.
I'm Luke, and this is me:
- South Australian (and allegedly Heaps Good as a result)
- long time QC reader
- occasional politics hack
- perpetual student
- casual busker/muso (facebook.com/LukeThePianoDude)
- occasional barista

So yeah. Whoo. I'm on the internet. Haven't been on a forum since high school, but hey, that's life.

Nice to meet all of you  :-)

Good to see a newbie already contributing in other threads. Think we'll get along juuuuust fine.

I'm inclined to believe you, but the elongated "juuuuuuust" makes me suspicious.

Hopefully I haven't made a bad first impression :P

Whilst I'm still new enough to be forgiven, I have to ask:

I think it's just used for moments of confusion or WTF or 'you have blown my mind.'

See, I assumed confusion, but I seem to never be able to tell. For all I knew it could have been a forum in-joke and I'd have committed some kind of forum faux pas

Psyduck, and the parrot, were added because there was a call for them.  Sachiel was added because I fancied it (never gets used, though!).

I admit to not knowing anything about the source material, but perhaps I will have to a) fix that and b) make it a goal to appropriately use Sachiel in conversation here.

Also, welcome Luke! Hope your time here so far has been pretty painless!

Even though I think it should be retired out of respect. Also what is Sachiel? Also welcome!

Sachiel: :angelface:  It's in the "more" smileys along with the parrot.

Thankyou, all of you, for your kind words of welcome

Can I just say, whoever added the "mating kakapo" emoticon is a legend.  :parrot:

I was thinking of somewhere to put my 1000th post, and this seemed like a good spot. Because, holy shit, I've been here for a year!  :psyduck:

So yeah, anyway, 1000th post! Whoo! :emotrex: :emotrex: :emotrex:
