I learned that there are real idiots in the world like ffmcobalt and the_good_guy exist. I guess they just make the rest of us look better.

*weighs the option of explicating HC's "nobody" and decides that the ensuing beating would not be worth it*

I came here because I was bored and I needed to kill time somehow (be careful what you wish for I guess). Ended up with a few new friends (*waves to HC, PAB, Roger and Linuxboy*). I have begun to learn the art of the flame war. Most of all though, I have learned the art of nef. ;)

Through the years I actually made some real good friends. Funny how that happens!

I've learned quite a bit about computers from people on here. I've made quite a few great friends and most of all....I've met my boyfriend. We didn't meet here per se, but from here....eh, kind of. lol He posts here, but we met at another forum, but he's known of me since I started posting here.

Anyway....I didn't intend on coming here and falling in love with someone and moving across country to live with them. :)
