I'm new

I um… thought this site would be a little different, but I could get used to it. Just wanted to say hi and let you all know I’m here. I like to chat and have a great time, so perhaps we’ll get along. So, HI!

Luv,
Brit:p

If it was worth your time to sign up and post here, it would also be worth yours–and everyone else’s time–to learn about the different forums and what they’re used for.

This is Cafe Society and is for discussions of art, movies, music and books. A post like yours is better suited for Mindless Pointless Stuff I Must Share, also called MPSIMS, which is for chit-chat type posts. A good outline of each forum is on the main Straight Dope Message Board page.

Welcome to the SDMB, Brit. I’m sure you’ll find your way.

Ignore the rudeness of the previous post.

Welcome to the boards. Everyone makes a mistake early on in their “life” here at the Straight Dope.

Just read the little descriptions of what each board is about and post in the right one.
:slight_smile:

Oh, I just posted here b/c I figured I’d be in this board the most. But it’s cool, I always get yelled at for that kind of stuff, no biggie. I’ll definately try to get it inthe right place next time. Thank you.

Brit:)

Welcome, bluforever! Pleased to meetcha!
Hope you enjoy your stay here. :slight_smile:

You mention expecting to spend some time in Cafe Society, so I’m curious about your arts/entertainment interests. Care to share?

Also, I hope you like pie. I brought some. It’s pecan*. Yummy.
*shout out to the Star Trek nerds!

Kn(mmmmmmmm. Pie.)ckers

I’m in choir, I write poems, I’m an avid novel reader. I love to paint and sketch and draw, but I don’t get the time to do it anymore. Bummer. I like pie yes, but not pecan. Sorry. I’ll bring cherry crumb with me next time. :slight_smile:

Welcome bluforever1

Now, 'bout that pie…

Darn, sorry about the pecans, bluforever!

I’m also quite fond of drawing, sketching and so forth. Especially so forth.

See ya around!

Welcome blu!

I, for one, am glad you are here.

Did you remember to wear your Official Cecil Adams Tinfoil Hat™ ? It protects your from the Alien Mind Control Rays the satellites beam at us!

If you haven’t, don’t worry! You’ll be given one with your Ceremonial White Robe, just as soon as you’ve signed over all your worldly goods to Unca Cecil.

And when you’ve learned to chant.
<OOOM! OOM!>
Hi Opal!
<OOOM! OOM!>
Hi Opal!
<OOOM! OOM!>
Hi Opal!
<OOOM! OOM!>
Hi Opal!

:wink:

Be welcome. Enjoy your stay.

Wait, I don’t have my tinfoil hat on, and I’m starting tBZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ…

(smoke rises from ears…)

I think that the question of whether or not tin-foil hats actually block out alien mind control rays is better suited to Great Debates or General Questions.

Welcome to the SMDB… hope you have a good time.

All this time I though the tinfoil hats were just for looks, nice to know they are practical as well.

Holy crap!.. a quadruple post. That’s my record. Sorry everybody.

That wouldn’t have happened, if you had been wearing your hat…

Welcome…to MPSIMS.
