Title: Hello.
Post by: Wessik on January 12, 2012, 05:32:07 AM
I am glad to be here. Though I'm not sure what else to do in this post. I guess I could talk about myself. Hmm... what would you like to know? I live in Texas, and have been a life-long democrat. However... I saw something on TV today that made me reconsider at least one member of the Republican Party. I suppose my political beliefs are a bit shaken.

I love Yakisoba Noodles, which I take to work when I can. In any case, glad to meet all of you.

Do you believe the provision of Yakisoba Noodles should be socialised so all members of society can enjoy the joy of said noodles, or do you support a merit based system where only the elite get to scoff all the noodles?

Welcome, but if you choose not to share your noodles please don't flaunt them. (https://www.happyatheistforum.com/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi647.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fuu198%2FRamblingSyd%2FFSMlaugh.gif&hash=883c2cb00626f643a7775c6ad6264aae7d1f4643)

I believe in Noodles for ME. Alas, I am condemned by the Flying spaghetti monster for the unforgivable act of chewing on his noodly appendage.

Hello and welcome to HAF, Wessik. For some reason you remind me of somebody who was a member here before I was. Maybe it's the unusual German vocabulary used in your signature (that is German, right?)  ;) That fellow was a Go player like myself, and in fact it was his use of a banner from this site in his signature on a now-defunct Go forum that brought me here. I don't think I ever properly thanked him for that. I guess my nostalgia is getting away from me here.

Hello Wessik
All this talk of noodles is making me sad that my breakfast is only toast and tea.

Hmm.. Recusant... I knew that name sounded familiar... A while back I bought an ink drawing of anold man playing chess. Signed on the page was that name. It wasn't your drawing, was it? Also... go... go... I played that game. Long time ago... never was much good at it.  Yakisoba noodls are soba noodls. Only yaki. :p thnk you all for the warm welcome!

I do some drawings, but I don't sign them with "Recusant" and I don't sell them, so it couldn't have been my work. I'm mildly disappointed that you aren't Wechtlein Uns returned, but am happy that another Go player (even if lapsed) has joined HAF.

Hi Wessik, yeah I love yakisoba noodles too.

Nope, Yakisoba is a Japanese stir fry noodle dish similar to chow mein, even though it has soba in the name ramen noodles are actually the noodles used as they are made from wheat flour rather than buckwheat, the yaki sauce is similar to that of Worcestershire sauce but much sweeter and has a consistency more like that of oyster sauce. In japan it is usually topped with beni shoga and Japanese mayo. Its amazing.
