Welcome, antifa! I think we have a Swedish language learning thread around here somewhere, maybe that'll be of some use to you?

Hello all, because of Kjeks' insistence, here I am :P . I'm 25 years old and from the Netherlands. SSSS found me via one of the "check these webcomics out" lists at Girl Genius and I've been a regular reader ever since. I read several (25+) other webcomics and study mathematics.

Tbh I mentioned in the ssss chat that I made an account on the forums, and Kjeks showed me the way to this thread.

Mine seem to be multiple-ly resistant; even Da Book hasn't reeled any of them in.

But welcome to those who have shown their wisdom by joining us!

I've nearly got one in- she's reading it but she's too shy to join the forums or comment or anything.
Soon!

My best friend has joined the forum but refuses to post until she catches up with reading SSSS (she already read ARTD at my insistence). Soon!

Yeah, the one that showed me this has found the Forum but won't get an account because it's a timesuck.

Since I not only commented on a couple of things, but also went to a RL meet-up yesterday, I guess I can't delay the introduction much longer...

So, erm... Hi?

  • Name: Aliax on the forum and in the comments, Alex in RL
  • Age: 2 Tuuris, or 1 Sigrun + 10, or 1 Taru + 1, you get the idea :P
  • Gender: trans male. Started FtM transition 3.5 years ago. Am mostly done socially, 3/4 done medically, and not done at all legally yet.
  • Nationality: French.
  • Languages: French and English. I lived in one of the former Yugoslavian republics for 6 years, but never managed to learn its language - among other reasons because I could always manage with English. Heh.
  • Marital Status: divorced and hopefully forever happily single. Mother to the most awesome 13yo autistic son, who lives abroad with his father because France is still stuck in the prehistoric ages when it comes to taking care of handicapped people =_=
  • Occupation: civil servant in civil aviation
  • Lives: in the southern part of the greater Paris area, a bit South of the Orly airport. I share a flat with my younger sister and a cat, and my son during the holidays of course.
  • How I Got Into SSSS: someone recced it on an anonymous fandom forum I was lurking on. I got stuck in the prologue the first time I tried it, though. Then I saw another rec for it somewhere else (probably the comments of SatW), with the added precision that one shouldn't hesitate to just skip the prologue if one found it too boring or something. So I did just that, and got promptly hooked on to the main story. It was much more pleasurable to go back to the prologue after finishing the main storyline - but it was very much not pleasurable at all to finish said main storyline right at the beginning of a chapter break  :'(
  • About My Avatar: my previous avatar was a Grade C Cat, because that's pretty much what I feel like whenever I'm in the company of most people: like some kind of big, fat, nice, but not-exactly-bright animal. My current "Confused Lalli" avatar reflects my constant bafflement at Life in general: no matter what I do, it keeps insisting on throwing loads and loads on wrenches into my best-prepared plans, for no other apparent reason than "Because it can".
  • Weird Habit: I can post dozens of comments in a day, and then nothing for 3 weeks. Also, don't take it personally if I reply endlessly to you on a topic, and then abruptly drop out of the conversation. My brain only seems to know two modes (On and Off), and I generally can't control when it switches mode on which topic. Sorry :(
  • Warning: Do NOT get me started on a topic I like, unless you like being hit by Walls Of Text.
  • What Else: I dunno? Ask me if you want to know something. I mostly don't bite :)
