I thought it might be a good idea to have a place for FBs to introduce ourselves to each other without having to sift through member profiles. Just a quick "about me" thing.

As for me, I'm 30 years old, married, and living about 20 minutes away from the George Washington Bridge in NJ. By weekday, I'm the IT manager for a medical technology company. By weekend, I am the newest ring announcer for NWA Wrestling. Big TV debut in 3 weeks, which I'm pretty excited about!

So how about the rest of you?

i'm a 22 year old non college student that was a college student that's thinking about being a college student again. i live in fort worth texas and i like to build my own guitar pedals and record my own noise loops.

i wish i were a newest ring announcer for something...

I'm.. uh... *counts fingers and toes* 23 years old, engaged, and working for a State School here in Abilene, TX. In about 30 minutes i'll be applying at a tech college, so hopefully you can just add student on to that.

as locke cole117 speaks i am watching season two (disc two) of the venture brothers in baited anticipation of the third season.

I'm a socially incapable student who has no job and would rather buy books than food.
I do a lot of work in technical theater, and currently I'm frantically attempting to complete an art portfolio in time for college submission.

I was wondering who'd take the bait first!

Hello, my name is Arcys. The name comes from the latin word arcis, which means citadel, stronghold, fortress, keep, or donjon.

My interests include web deveopment, manga, anime, and reading books. I'm currently unemployed but that will be rectified soon.

I started reading HE after I read Hyper Realistic Murder Simulators, and have loved every comic since!

Arcys

28 year old Australian nerd, work as a personal trainer.
Video games, movies all the basic FB type stuff floats my boat (Rick rolls are still funny!). Found HE through one of the comics that ended up on Digg and have been reading and listening to the podcast ever since.
It's one of the holy trinity of webcomics i always recommend to anyone who'll listen with Least i could do and Sam and Fuzzy.

25 year old graphic design graduate flailing madly to find a job where I can use 'mai mad skillz'. Until then, I'm working at a copy and print place - which is FAR FAR better then former job at a toy store (less screaming). Play video games, draw, watch bad movies, and am trying to up my geek cred by catching up on series that are good and I missed.

*joins Not Mandatory in the 'penis challenged' corner.*

Hey there, I'm Mattie. I am penis challenged. I'm also a Comp Sci student from Detroit, MI. Used to go to school in New Orleans (hurricane and all) until I changed my major. I want nothing more than to move back there...or to San Fransisco.

I feel so, so sorry for you.

Because we lost last night to the Penguins? It's cool. We're still gonna kill them for the Cup.

23/m/NC want cybar???

I work as a mechanical engineer for a government contractor down in the military belt of NC (Jacksonville, Havelock, etc)

Posted By: ArcysNo, I used to live near Detroit in Macomb County. I actually lived right next to the park where they found that woman cut up.

I never really liked it up there. People drive like madmen and are generally dicks.

Also, Penguins will win. I may be biased as I'm from Pittsburgh...Warning: The FBF is a known carcinogen to the State of California. Contact with the FBF may cause cancer, necrophilia, an urge to run in a tiny wheel, and/or lawn gnomes barbecuing your pets.

Oh. Well, I like where I live.

hello,

i am catfish. im a mechanical engineer, 26, live in brooklyn, bewanged. someone posted one of the early hijinks ensue to my local fixed gear cycling message board, and i've been rss feeding the lols ever since.

good stuff joel!

Ah, hello! I'm Dessy, I'm 22. I like movies, silly things, napping, and Radiohead. Not Mandatory got me into Joss Whedon so I'm going to get her into Battlestar Galactica.
I think Hijinks Ensue is one of the best things I have ever read. Some of those comics I swear Joel stole from actual conversations I've had with my friends.

30 year old Emergency Veterinary Technician in Chattanooga, TN. Diehard browncoat. Insatiable reader of books and other literary media. Martial arts enthusiast. Music lover. Artist. Writer. Poet. Singer/songwriter. RPG addict. Etc. Discovered Hijinks Ensue through whedonesque.com (Yeah. Discovered. You know. Like Columbus discovered a hemisphere full of people.)

Greg, 22, I graduated from a college film production course a year ago and since then I've been juggling a part time job at a bookstore while trying to work on independent films and get experience doing illustration and graphic design.
Inspired by Joel, I just quit my job at a major Canadian bookstore in northern Ontario and moved to Winnipeg, Manitoba to attempt to make a living doing something creative.

I discovered HE several months ago and have been following the comic as well as the Experiment religiously.

Hi all! I'm a 24 year old Englishman and seemingly one of the few non-US types here so far. I have an accent so typical I might as well out myself as some kind of dastardly villain here and now. Been reading HE long enough to have forgotten how I found it and I love to geek out to Whedon tv shows, gaming and a host of passtimes nerdish enough to need concealing from the general public.

I used to dream of tightening up graphics for a living but have since decided to embark on an illustrious IT career instead.

To flesh out what I said. I found HE through the weekly Webcomic roundup on Joystiq. I...stumbled(fell while drunk) onto the podcast. Just think, people who are so much older than me having the same likes? Fate.....nah.

Good stuff everyone. I'm a 23 year old married man, working for the Army, Military Intelligence, out of Sierra Vista Arizona. Right now I manage Databases and cruise the Internet on the governments dime (sorry tax payers). New to the whole board thing, but, I'm liking what I see.

Posted By: EddieThat's right; Joel likes to watch.

Excuse me while I put on my tin foil hat. Anyone ever feel like somebody's always watching you when you go to the bathroom or is it just me?

Posted By: The VomiteerRight now I manage Databases and cruise the Internet on the governments dime (sorry tax payers).

As long as you don't proposition men in the restroom then I won't have a problem with it.

27, father of one (soon to be two) geek(s)-in-training. My 3-year old daughter gets excited when Doctor Who comes on, so I'm pretty thrilled about that.

I'm an MD/PhD student at UNC Chapel Hill (PhD in Biomedical Engineering). Bachelors was in Computer Engineering. I've been an ardent fan of video games - particularly RPGs and strategy games - since early on. I like cycling, I have a 2nd-degree black belt in tae kwon do. My guilty pleasure is that I host a weekly D&D game here. I take a moped to school because I hate riding the bus and it gets 100 miles per gallon (plus I like to show off my l33t 49cc-engine skillz). Other favorite hobbies include long walks on short piers and bringing sexy back.

I got turned on to HE courtesy of Joystiq's Weekly Webcomic Roundup, which is always a treat for anyone that keeps up with video games.

I was also the dad on the Brady Bunch.

Cue teh jealous:

*jealous*

I only ever made second-degree brown. I'm really hankering to pick it back up again.

Posted By: Bill*jealous*

I second that! Never made it any further than high school aikido, but it captivates me whenever I get to watch it.
