Hello everyone.

I just found out about fstdt.

It is the best of sites (with hilarious stuff like the Leaviathan, I mean, Leviathon in the bathtub)
It is the worst of sites (some of the news quotes, OMFG, why am I in the same species as those people?).

Advance apologies for any possible butchery of the english language that may ensue from me not being a native speaker (I'm Portuguese).

As an aside, whoever came up with the piechart-pacman .gif and the "Tears of Impotent Rage" bottle image deserves seven internets. ;D

Greetings! I'm Mr. Argent, long-time reader/Lurker. Figured i'd give getting active in the FSTDT Community a spin! I Assume i'll be hanging around the IRC Channel and the comments on the main site more than anything, but i will be poking around the forums quite a bit too.

Hello everyone! I've been a fan of FSTDT for a few years and recently started going on the forums. Here's some basic info about me. I'm an ex-Lutheran who became an atheist when I was 12. I'm now 17 and I will graduate high school soon.
I'm a female. I don't really know my gender though... It swaps around from girl to virtually transgender, a mix of both boy and girl, and entirely gender-less. I'm sorry I don't know the name of that "gender". I'm also a pansexual.
I'm happy to be a part of FSTDT now.

Could someone please explain the "fucks given" thing?

I'm sorry if this isn't the right place to ask this...

It's called "karma" on some boards. Basically, if you like something someone said, you can click on "Fuck yeah," which gives them a positive point, or if you don't like something they say, you can click "Fuck no," and give them a negative point.

We don't take it very seriously though.

You're welcome. And just for fun, I gave you your first "Fuck yeah."

I'm new here too, and I like this site. I forget how I found this site... all I know is I was on the Philosophy Forum one moment then the next I was in FSTDT. The Leviathan in the bathtub was the first thing I saw, and it was a laugh riot. I knew a few people years ago who used to post some kickass "Poe" stuff on other sites only for the sake of humor - none of them were fundies or politically one-dimensional - I could not hold a candle to them although I tried my best to contribute.

Hello new people!

Also, JBento, I look forward to possible discussion of Japanese lunchboxes with you. :P

Greetings to everyone  :). I have been lurking on this website for about three years but have only just made an account. I hope I will be able to express my opinions on this forum without making a fool of myself.
