Not really.  What's your favorite music, favorite color, favorite actor?  Do you have pets, hobbies, a squeeze?  Have you done any traveling, are you still in school or are you working now?  There's so much we like to get to know before we get into the heavy stuff.

Welcome.

Also, the Great and Terrible One whose fearful visage is sometimes revealed in toast.  Can't forget that part.

Okay.
Genre or band? I think I have to go with glitch for genre, or maybe D&B. Band is Radiohead though. White. Maybe Robin Williams. No. Music listening. For now. Not to anywhere cool. I'm working now with plans for school.

Thanks for all the welcomes =] I joined hoping to find some like-minded people.

Well, yes. There is also a fine print about baby kebab. Babies, you see, they must be slaughtered properly first. In the name of The Asmo and everything.  :D

That line, it can be interpreted in several ways... One could have plans for a certain school, for instance... Evil plans. Wrong.  :D OR, if one does not wish to appease The Asmo with a sacrifice of children, one could simply be working on some blueprint for a new school to replace that, which was sacrificed to His Asmoness.  :D

Or, I could be planning something completely blasphemous against His Asmoness. Like a blueprint for a school without children. And then sacrifice it for the lulz. The great Asmo will be so disappointed he will rampage the Earth. It will be anarchy.

Welcome Brieze,

Probably edIT. He's amazing. Aphex Twin at times, like in Vordhosbn. Kraddy. PANTyRAiD (somedays).. Pretty much the entire line up of The Glitch Mob.

You speak abruptly. It makes me wonder about your intentions and purposes towards this forum. I do not mean maliciousness, of course, but simply that your short manner raises curiosity. However, if you have very little to say, conversations tend to falter.

In any case, welcome. I would say this covers it.

Sorry. Honestly I don't feel comfortable here yet. I speak when I have something to say though. Do people generally tell stories when they first join? I never have =/

Welcome! Going to school is great I am going to start going back for a degree in IT.  Biology does not sound fun.  As for the music I have not heard of any of those bands or genres except radiohead.  Guess I am a bit of a sheltered anti-social person though  >:(

It's a little known fact that Biology has one of the highest sugar concentrations of all the sciences.  Also, stay far away from Geology, it causes genital warts.
