Astronomy! Physics jokes! SCIENCE! *flails arms*
(I don't know that I've told a non-science joke in the last several years, given that we define "science joke" to include "an engineer, a physicist, and a mathematician ..." jokes.)

...We're all mad in here. ;)
I'll do art-swaps and beta-reads, PM me!

Hello, I'm microFerret, and I am a student from the Western US. I'm older than Tuomi but younger than Lalli, and unfortunately I do not know any of the languages of the Known World. In fact, I only seem to be able to learn languages that have no native speakers, such as Latin, Pig Latin, and Lisp (an obscure programming language that is nearing its 50th birthday). I'm obsessed with electronics and electromagnetism (this is what my username is a reference to), but my skill in circuitry does not reflect this. I also am a huge nerd when it comes to astronomy, biotech, and random historical things no one else cares about. I've only known about SSSS for a little over a month, and this is my second day on the forum. I like making cheesy science jokes and puns, but most of the time they're more obscure and less funny than I think they are. I'll try to spare everyone...
...but sometimes I can't help myself.

Hi, and welcome! A lot of us are huge nerds here, I bet you'll fit in juuuuust fine. ; D

I don't think anyone will complain. I make chemistry jokes, too!
...
but only periodically.
Oh, you got me. You got me there. XD

Science jokes all the way! ;D

...We're all mad in here. ;)
Well, yes, no, maybe...

Thanks guys. Yeah, everyone on this forum seems really nice. I'm happy to see all these fellow "passiones" here. Oh, and I've also got non-science jokes and science non-jokes.

Anyways, hope to see you all again in the comments!

Hi peeps !

Hello dear survivors from the apocalypse !

I'm kinda new here. Like, really new. I started to read SSSS only, well, a month ago ?
I've heard about it through Disqus and, well, other Disqus commentators. And maybe also because of the webcomic "The Demon Archives", a very cool post-apo webcomic ! :D

I'm 19 for now, student, and I love webcomics, comics and books. I also like movies, and video games. I'm really fan of sci-fi. Mostly space opera. THE SPICE MUST FLOW ! Bless the Maker and His water ! Bless the coming and going of Him ! May His passage cleanse the world ! May He keep the world for His people !

No, no, I'm totally not a Dune fan... *whistle*

More seriously, I'm hoping to make great friends here ! And I wonder who's this Lars_B from comment section... mysterious Lars_B...

Oh, is this presentation okay ? I hope so... Phew...

Hello dear survivors from the apocalypse !

Mélusine, how is it that you ALWAYS get here two minutes before me???

Welcome, Adriano! Here, have some squirrel cookies courtesy of our dear baker Piney! . We've got plenty of sci-fi, movie, and video game fans around here, so I'm positive you'll find some great people to talk to (honestly, pretty much everyone here is great to talk to ;D) So just jump on in to whatever discussions interest you, and you'll have no trouble making friends. And as long as we're referencing things...
ALL HAIL THE GLOW CLOUD. ALL HAIL THE GLOW CLOUD. ALL HAIL. THE GLOW CLOUD.
*aherm* no, I'm not a Welcome to Night Vale fan. Why would you ask?

And now, I'm off to go check out that Demon Archives webcomic you mentioned. :)) Welcome again!
:usa: Yes.
:spain: Out of practice.
:finland: Failed to learn.
:vaticancity: Probably remember five words.

If you're interested, follow the link ;) but yes it would mean a bigger travel for you. And if I don't make a mistake you have at least one of our members near Lyon. There is a map. Somewhere...
