Another n00b

I’ve lurked around SDMB for about a month before joining a little over a week ago. At the time, I wasn’t sure whether it was proper etiquette to introduce myself or whether it was better to slink in under the radar like a nervous frosh going to her first co-ed house party.

I opted for the latter. But then I read Cahspeede’s thread and thought, “Yeah. I’d like me one of those formal introductions too.”

I’m twenty-one, female, Chinese-American. I go to college in the northeast and my parents’ live in the Bay Area. Hello. It’s a pleasure to be here.

Anyway, carry on - pay no attention to that unkempt person trying to take a bath in the fountain of your hotel lobby. She is witless, but benign.

Welcome!.

(Pay no attention to the man with the giant squid)
quick guys, while she’s distracted!

And we didn’t even need to lure her into the fountain this time!

Baby Driver, just hold still, the squid gets nervous at sudden movements(like jumping).

Oh, and welcome.

Hello Baby Driver. Be welcome. Enjoy your stay. :slight_smile:

I never felt it was necessary to start an introductory thread. I preferred to think of myself as covertly infiltrating the place.

Just jumped right in and no one was ever the wiser. :cool:

Pics or it didn’t happen. Or is “cite?” more appropriate here?

Was your daddy a family bassman?
Was your mamma an engineer?
I wonder how your engine feels.

Welcome aboard!

Beaten to it.

Welcome to the Dope!

I never had an intro thread myself. It worked out well. The board still ignores me ;D

Warning: Dope is addictive. Be prepared for thoughtful debate, unless you post in the “Great Debates” forum. Then you will be drowned out by one million replies before you can even read the header.

:smiley:

Have fun!

Welcome, welcome! Would you like some ice cream? The wasabi-mint is excellent today. Very memorable.

Welcome to the Dope. Glad to learn that you young 'uns can still appreciate great songs written way before you were born.

Now that I’m a mod, I guess I can’t participate in the welcome rituals anymore? :frowning:

Welcome. But know that using terms like “n00b” and similar riles up many of us old fogies and makes us wrathful and vengeance-seeking. :wink:

You can, as long as you don’t participate in welcome rituals in the forum you actually moderate.

Really, it’s in the rules. Srsly. :wink:

Welcome, Baby Driver! I hope you’re not allergic to lime Jell-O. . .:stuck_out_tongue:

:: cough ::

What, what? When did twicks become a moderator? I have been out of touch!

I am confused. Does the goat get paraded out for just new males or for everyone? That damned billy changed my life for good (as well as other parts of my anatomy).

Shhhhh. We mustn’t speak of that in front of the uninitiated!

I thought the goat was for full moon initialization rituals, has anybody checked the almanac?

Just try to find a way to separate the squid from the goat without using sharp sticks. That didn’t work out so well last time. :eek:

Did you bring any pie? You do know new members are supposed to bring pie, right? Otherwise the goat gets-- er, I mean the, uh… the go gets at, eh… [unintelligible mumble]…

So, what kind of pie is it?
