So my BFF told me about this site so I followed her over. I’m from WI and work in a cubicle farm. I’m 37. I have two cats, Jake and Roland. I’m a Superwholockian. I’m into anime and manga also. So hello, everyone! ---

Welcome! There are just a few questions we need to get out of the way… George Reeves, Christopher Reeve, or Dean Cain? Classic Who or ‘Nu-Who’? Jeremy Brett or Benedict Cumberbatch? ---

There’s a rule here that if you have cats, you must post pictures of them. No exceptions! ---

Dean Cain (Only because I did not like how superman II ended and I thought it a huge cop out) nu-Who, though I do appreciate the classics. Though Susan screams too much. (The granddaughter, not the horse) Benedict! I’m a shameless BBC Sherlock fangirl. But it’s just not the actors, it’s the acting, writing and all the chemistry the actors have together to make it a brilliant production. ---

Welcome, welcome! We must ask you some questions\* though. Red or Green? Coke or Pepsi? Tintin or Astérix? Liberal, Conserviative, or NDP? Pixar, Lucasfilm, or Disney? Star Trek or Star Wars? AL or NL? Atlantic or Pacific? Hand-drawn or CGI? French or Spanish? Metric, Imperial, or US? \*Note: at least one of these is a trick question. Or, if you don’t want to answer the questions, there’s ice cream over in the other thread. But then you’ll have to answer to the ice cream. _twitch_ ---

Yes, **Plebianangel** , you can choose Ghibli Studio. The Disney question was the trick: they’re _all_ Disney now… ---

Wow, November '12 is off to a good start. The class of October '12 was a huge, souring disappointment. But here is and we already have 2 fun people who can actually post coherent sentences and have a grasp on the appropriate use of the shift key! ---
