Depends - going through a rough patch?  Need to be more smooth?  Maybe some mild abrasiveness is just the ticket!

Hello.   I come and go from time to time. I been around since 04 or abouts that. I certainly wouldn't say wisdom comes with age. I feel generally as confused and directionless now as I did when I was in my twenties.

I guess it's time to get back into it. I made my last post in July of '09, and after reviewing some of my old posts, I just want to apologize. I was obnoxious and argumentative back then. I'd like to think I've changed. I hope I have. I know I have a better sense of who I am now, and I'm not looking for the approval of strangers on the internet. That's progress, right?

So this is me, now:


I hope that I've grown up enough that I can safely rejoin internet society.

Well, I registered here in July '06, which after doing some quick math means that I was 14 at the time. Looking back at my posts this becomes rather evident, because while I didn't post often, when I did I spoke with that cringe worthy tone of someone trying to desperately fit in with the cool older kids. For the longest time I only posted in and kept up with the World of Warcraft thread, and I stopped coming here frequently when that thread began to die.

I feel that the QC forums had a substantial impact on my life, probably most notably on my humour and my music tastes. My tastes developed more in one afternoon of lurking everyone's profiles in the Last.fm thread than the rest of my life up to that point. That's probably the very definition of impressionable young teenager, but I don't regret it for a second.

I still come back here to lurk every now and again, seeing if I can still recognize any of the usernames.

Hällĺ. (<----- very possibly not real Swedish.)

I'm Kate/thedevilissix.  British, last seen here probably...2009?   :roll:
I think I posted more than 4 posts back then, so possibly I have a clean slate of posts(?) but despite my tendency to lurk more than post I've been a long time QC fan and it has been a staple with my breakfast and coffee every morning for a long time.
I also had an avatar that I've sadly lost that was a b/w picture of a novelty flamenco dancing pepper mill (continuing the vein of Pixies references!). I'm sure I also owe someone a mixtape-if it's you, sorry! Perhaps it might be an idea to finally do it, eh...!
Good to be back :)

Yeah.  I finally reached a sort of equilibrium with all the depressing shit in my life, so I'm starting to reconnect with the groups I'd ditched.  Y'all are one of them. 

"Y'all" is a useful term.  It specifies the plural in situations where it might not be immediately obvious.

So this thread exists? I don't think I ever got to introduce myself. I'm David, I wish I'd picked a better username but I don't have a way to change it. I live in NC but hail from cloudy Cleveland, Ohio. I'm in college as a technical theatre major. I also used to be a poli sci major but cynicism/a really bad internship caught up with me on that one. I love musicals, classic film, and music. I also used to be a debater (no I was not a master) but our team switched formats and I didn't like the new format. But academic debate remains an interest of mine and I still judge tournaments if one's in driving distance. The first verse of Basket Case describes my mental state pretty well. I'm half Lebanese/Syrian and was raised in the Melkite church. I don't talk to most of my family on account of disagreements we have about my bisexuality and non-religiousness. I have Crohn's, I have and will continue to complain about it a lot.

So yeah, monologue over. Yaaaay my life.

Ask one of the admins, or possibly just pwhodges. I know that Thrillho's changed his name at least twice since I've been here, Masterpeice used to be the_masterpeice, and Unicorn/Zingoleb (can't remember which is current) switched between those as well.

We can actually change your sign-in name, but it's a little more trouble - though really only to the extent that you need to verify your email address again like when you first registered here (so make sure it's correct before we do it!).
