You'd never guess from the title but we had this discussion in this thread. There's also a handy map where people can add themselves!

The kid is new, and that last thread wasn't exactly searchable. Give the kid a break.

Then again, somebody with three posts asking for the location of forumites is rather creepy.

Only vaguely better than Tommy asking, but that falls under the category of "better the devil you know..."

Well, if by devil, one were to mean sex fiend.

So how about we close this, since we already have the Frapp topic?

We could just derail it into something more productive.

Like a thread about how comfortable my shoes are.

Seriously, these things; like fellatio for the feet, except not as wet.

I once cut off my index finger at the middle knuckle.  The whole finger barely hung on by a flap of skin.  I didn't know it was bad, no blood, until I ran it under a faucet.  That's when the finger fell off, and I fell over in surprise.  I got it reattached, and can now use it again.

*mucho gore*
I would have shit myself if that happened to me.
I once sliced deep into my thumb with a hobby knife while slicing through some plastic, that bled like a bitch and didn't heal until I super glued my skin back together. It's what they would have done if I'd gone to the hospital anyways.

It would seem that Philippines and Pakistan have more people who read QC than Finland. How curious...

Man, if we complain about a few newbies and trolls every now and then, just imagine what it would be like if that number went up to 10%. Which I find strange, because I check the main page about 5 times a week, but I check the forum pages dozens of times.

I would have cried like a baby had that happened to me, and probably would have become hysterical. Super glue works like a charm, I use it on all hobby knife accidents, ever since the first time I badly cut myself and then accidently brushed my finger though a super glue spill. Sure, you'll have a spot on your skin that feels like solid rubber for a couple weeks, but at least you don't have to deal with it splitting open again.

Yeah, I mean, "I won't kill and eat you if you won't kill and eat me" is typically a ground rule for social groups.

I cut my hand off once but stitched it back up with rope I made from a nearby nettle. It's fine now.

My left leg fell off once in a particularly fierce hockey game. I tied it back on with the hair of the opposing team captain and afterwards we glued it back with some melted horseflesh. Works pretty fine for me.

For those curious, the international breakdown is -

South Africa 2.3%

For some reason, I would've thought of Norway before South Africa, though that might just be Mari and Jens.

And snalin, I think. I think I may even know who he is/have gone to the same school as him, although I'm not really sure.

It would've been interesting to see those percentages for just the forums.questionablecontent.net-subdomain.

Guys the percentages are made up of all those that visit questionablecontent.net so being surprised that you haven't noticed people from a country on the list on the forum is kind of ridiculous. Especially seeing as a lot of us don't visit the comic forums or some of the other sub forums.
