Eww. I don't think I could live there.
I mean that quite literally. I'm fairly certain I wouldn't survive more than a day of that.

Haha, Tenjen, I know exactly what you mean. Our summers are just like that, ridiculously hot and humid. Wind and and shadow are no relief. And then rains every day. Lovely.
On the other hand, we've got sub-zero temps on our winters. Crazy weather.
Right now it's 36°C and the sun is shinning so bright that it seems to be just outside my window. I'ma so going to the beach tomorrow ;D

Well, I guess I ought to be sociable... Real name: I suppose it might be....ALLYSON? :U Nicknames: Allyson, Allyson, and Allyson. Age: 17 Height: 5'7"-ish Weight: Eternally floating somewhere between 120 and 130 pounds. Gender: I'm speculated to be female, but who knows for sure? Favorite Games: Oh, oh! OREGON TRAIL. You have died of dysentary. How could you get tired of that? ...What? Why are you looking at me like that? And, um, the Pokemon games are always a whole bunch of fun. Er, besides that, I'd have to say silly things like Tetris or Spider Solitaire...I do play other sorts of games, but I tend to lose interest quickly, so I couldn't really call any of them a -favorite-. Favorite Court Character: Oh, I love Kat, definitely. But I like Gamma too.
Favorite Sport: ...pffffhahahahahaha! Oh, you are funny. Favorite Movie: The Princess Bride! Favorite Book: The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. THINGS ABOUT ME:  |

I recently dived into the world of web comic, and while looking through nominations and past seasons of the WCC I noticed that this comic was mentioned a lot, so i checked it out a few days ago in the morning and started reading...then look up at the end and realize it was 5 o'clock in the afternoon. Now I'm joining because I would love to discuss it with other fans. |

Hi, I'm 84. No, that's not my age, it's what people call me. Some people also call me "Andreas", which is my parents' fault. 84 is the first part of an IP address I've been using to contribute to a wiki, in case you wonder where that name comes from. Yes, I'm a hopeless geek and I have no intentions to do something about that. I'm also German and there isn't much that I can do about that. Other than that, I'm 30. Yes, that is my age.
On a side note I'd like to mention that me being called "84" has no connection whatsoever to that other guy in a well known Sci-Fi movie being called "85"...

Favorite sport(s): yoga, Tai Chi, aerobics Favorite movie(s): Neverending Story, Star Wars, the Matrix, the Crow, Labyrinth Favorite book(s): Madeleine L'Engle's Wrinkle in Time series, anything by Neil Gaimon or Alan Moore, and a huge scifi/fantasy fan in general.

Great to meet another WoW player, Bluerose! Have you happened to have read the Dark Tower series from Stephen King? Dont be a stranger Captain! If you see an interesting topic and have something to say or thought of something, post it! But think about it first. I am a fan of the Dark Tower series courtesy of my dad. I think I have missed reading the last two books, however. I need to reread the whole thing and then read them. And I heart WoW. I play on a few servers including Kirin Tor and Argent Dawn. |
