OH GOD A BEAR!!!
« on: 26 Nov 2012, 19:59 »

*queue obligatory awkward intro post*

Well um... Howdy!

Name's Bear, in case you didn't notice. Long running nickname the internet gave me, that ended up being more than a nickname. Long story. But anyways, I stumbled across the comic from a link on XKCD's page, and I think it took me *maybe* a week and a half to finish the whole thing. From first look, it seems that y'all have a pretty active forum here. I might poke around a bit.

I know I'm the new guy, <sarcasm> so y'all must be totally fascinated by me </sarcasm> but yeah, y'all got any questions or whatever, feel free to ask. I'll even dare to say that I'll answer any question asked. This could get interesting.

Thanks for reading!

...I had a lug wrench? :/

I'm actually surprised to get a response so fast. Impressive!

Hobbies: Real big into Hiking, Backpacking, Camping, all that good boy-scouty stuff. Used to love reading and writing a ton, but that takes free time. I was on a Drill Team here at school that I loved. I guess I must like marching or something like that. Weird, I know.

Music: Country. Almost religiously. George Strait, Garth Brooks, Kenny Chesney, Alan Jackson... stuff like that. I kinda like dubstep, but haven't ever really 'gotten into it' or even know where to start.

You don't have a wrench anymore. Be thankful for that...

Yeesh, next y'all are gonna tell me to watch out for the cryokinetic seal that's gonna come and vacuum what little sanity I have into a small glass bottle and throw it in an incinerator. Had that happen once.

Once is enough.  The seal's been banned from the forum for a while, now.

...if I'm right in understanding that you've shown me a web comic with a bear main character, I may very well disappear while I go and read the entire thing.

Sadly, no.

No, the Bear is the webcomic artist.

A polar bear, mind you. (He is, after all, from Kenai, Alaska.)

Seriously. When I looked into this forum and I saw all the new posts I was like WTF?

You've done an awful thing blue. I should've been studying earlier for my chem quiz. But then I had to read ALL THE POSTS (Which were mainly you)

In any case the quiz did go well

Of course, the rules and welcome threads. The Weekly Comic Discussion Thread (called a WCDT to confuse new people) is a good place to converse when you don't know people yet.
