Title: 'ello
Post by: ikkibu on April 14, 2009, 10:10:58 AM
New here, and just wanted to say hi and make my presence known.  So here are some general and some random facts.
I'm an Atheist, or, to be more precise, I am what some refer to as a "Weak Atheist".
My favourite research topics are Religion, Sexuality, and Philosophy.
I'm 18, didn't graduate high school, and have yet to get my GED, but I've proven on many an occaision that I don't need a fancy peice of paper that says I know something to make it so I know it.
I'm prone to having many typos, typically in words such as something, anything, nothing, or generally anything ending in "ng" for my fingers have a mind of their own and favour typing g before n for some strange reason.
I'm not a pessimist, nor am I an optimist.  I am a realist.  For me the glass is not half-empty, nor is it half-full.  The glass is simply half-way.
I'm an American.  My heritage is that of Scottish (Mom's side) and Brittish (Dad's side)
And... umm....  Well that's all I can think of off the top of my head right now.  Just had a smoke so I'm not thinking clearly at the moment.  Oh, that's another thing. lol  I smoke.
"ikkibu" is a Sumerian word meaning "Forbidden", or, more correctly, "Forbidden Thing".  "i" as in "Antique", "u" as in "Lulu".
And last, but not least, my name is Matthew, but please either call me Matt, or refer to me by my current forum name, "ikkibu".

If y'all have any questions about me or wish to know more just send me some questions in a PM or something, or post them somewhere, I guess.

Thank you for your time, and I look forward to being part of this forum community. :)

Welcome, Matt.  I have a bit of college in me, and you'll see me destroy the English language with horrid grammar, spelling, sentence structure, and word usage, so no worries, and you definitely don't need a piece of paper to learn.  You should eventually get the piece of paper to let other folks know what you know, though.   :D

Oh, yeah, and the glass is half full... For now...

Welcome Ikkibu

Funny, I did a commercial spot with (almost) your user name:
