heh… I’ve been a lurker for god knows how long… long enough to be so addicted that during that whole board debacle a month or two ago I felt lost and without a home…

anyways, i spent the last hour attempting to find somewhere i could make my first post, i wanted something to make a nice entrance with.

I almost posted in the thread about men, erections, and nudist camps… then i realized how ackward trying to come up with something witty in a post about boners in a nudist colony, without sounding childish and stupid really can be…

“the heck with jared” seemed like a good place to begin my career as a true doper, and we all know how fun yelling “SCREW JARED” can be… but then i realized that i have absolutely no idea who this Jared character is, and in good faith, I can’t say “SCREW JARED!!!” without actually knowing Jared…

I didn’t even want to look at “My Mighty Wang and Balls Of Power!” …the thought of what a thread with that title contained just plain frightened me.

It was about this time that the board began to slow down to a slow crawl. After noticing the lack of any worthwhile threads to make a spectacular entrance in, i got the idea to start my own. The result of which you have just read through.

I leave u with a row of happy orthodox jewish men 🆒

I’ve said Hi before.

Oh wait, you weren’t talking to me.

Nevermind.

Seems that the first attempt was rather anticlimactic. Just as **Sue Duhnym** was “slip[ping] into something more comfortable”, **bibliophage** came along and caused a [threadus interruptus](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=112058).

Tough break, **Copperwheatus**.

Only I would manage to mess up my grand and glorious entrance with something as dumb as a duplicate thread… stupid, stupid stupid… ::hits head on desk::

on an added note, I need a nice original sig… hmmmm…

Continuing what was started on the duplicate thread, there is a nice long story behind my name… which I don’t particularly feel like typing all the way out now. It involves binomial nomenclature, and 10th grade biology class… If u can figure it out, u win a cookie!!!
