Could we ask you to tell us a bit about yourself?  Where you're from, interests, plans, etc.?

How did I never notice there was an introduction thread?

So hello, Rabbit here. *awkward Zuko wave*
I've been around since September, I'm just really bad at this foruming thing.

Finn temporarily displaced to the land of sushi and painfully polite people in an attempt to learn the language, older than Hannu but younger than Sigrun, troper and book hoarder. I have 99 problems and all of them are having way too many interests to actually devote significant time to anything. My only specialties are remembering utterly useless details about fictional works and not getting lost. I like swords and taking extreme close-up photos of vegetation. Occasionally I try to art. Mostly I just hang in the back providing snide commentary. I despair about coffee a lot.

IIRC the Finns drink more coffee per capita than anyone else in the world.  Lord knows how they're going to survive post-Rash.

I worry more about nicotine, should the apocalypse happen I am raiding the nearest seller of cigarettes and woe betide any that would stand in my path.  The end of the world will be bad enough without adding niccy withdrawal to the mix.  That said caffeine withdrawal is no fun either...

It's the end of the world as we know it, and I feel...goddamit, I need a cigarette.

Hey, folks, can I gently encourage you to continue the conversation in General Discussion?  We try to keep this channel clear for introductions (and a reasonable amount of reaction thereto).

Thanks!

Hello,

I'm a guy from Hungary, Tuomi+(2×Tuomi^0) years old, currently a student. Hobbies include programming (beginner), making websites (intermediate at front-end stuff) and messing around in Blender. SSSS also got me interested in drawing and Finnish, but I haven't done anything related to those yet. Favourite school subject is Maths (also Physics, but we don't have that right now).

I found SSSS via the Language tree back in November, it was posted on a news site I read. My first reaction was "Are webcomics a thing?" Then I got curious, and read it. I got carried away immediately by the world and the characters. So, I've been a lurker for about half a year... in that time I gradually started voting, checking the forum and reguraly following some threads. Then I started making a forum theme for this place, got it finished, and now here I am, giving a contribution to the wonderful community of this wonderful comic. :)

I don't think I'll write too much, but I'll continue to check in more times than reasonable a lot... :D

Welcome, Eriaror!  That's quite a debut -- offering a beautiful forum theme before even your first post! 

If I remember my high-school math, you're... 17?  That actually makes you one of the elder members of "SSSS Fandom: The Next Generation."  The Language Tree seems to have lured in quite a few new readers -- and why am I not surprised you're interested in Finnish?   ;)  (My library request queue is full of Sibelius, Moomintroll books, and a post-apocalyptic novel recommended by another Forumite.)

Make yourself at home, and once again, welcome!

P.S.  Does your forum name have a meaning?
P.P.S.  If you're interested in math, do you have an Erdős number yet?   ;)

Haha! I remember 'way back when Haiz's forum icon text was "very small, very scared" and then "tiny unicorn."  Ze outgrew that shyness pretty quickly!   8)
