EDIT: Here, have some more illumination of my character:

[19:42] <Icebreaker> I HAVE SOME TOPIC IN THE IMMIGRATION BOARD
[19:42] <ari> AYE
[19:43] <ari> I'M TRYING TO THINK OF SOME APPROPRIATE WAY TO ANSWER
[19:43] <Icebreaker> LALS
[19:43] <ari> I MEAN, YOUR INTRODUCTION TO THE WORLD OF SHIREROTH WAS LESS ICEBREAKERISH THAN I EXPECTED
[19:46] <ari> MEANING THAT I'M GOING TO HAVE SOME PROBLEMS EXPLAINING TO PEOPLE THAT THEY SHOULD EXPECT ICEBREAKERISH THINGS FROM YOU
[19:47] <Icebreaker> DEFINE "ICERBREAKERISH"
[19:48] <ari> FOR INSTANCE, GOING INTO SOME RANDOM THREAD IN THE OFF-TOPIC FORUM (WHICH I NEED TO RENAME SINCE THAT NAME KIND OF BLOWS, AND BECAUSE YOU AT LEAST KNOW WHERE IT'S FROM) AND POSTING SOMETHING IN ALLCAPS
[19:48] <ari> = ICEBREAKERISH
[19:48] <Icebreaker> THAT'S GONNA HAPPEN, ACTUALLY

... you know, since Isaac first posted that I spent a few minutes sitting here (well, perched on a knee) wondering how to explain what to expect from ths guy... however, the edit should be quite enlightening. This guy appeared in September 2004 in the community which spawned the Thread of the Terrible and which, by the way, Aurefiction was also from. Don't worry, though, this guy is certifiably sane. I think. Treat him well, and all that.

Let me explain this, for people who have never been to Oulu. The guy has some chairs sitting around his computer.

He does not use them. He kneels in front of it and types, though there's some chair not half a meter from his right kidney. It's a serious case of WTF.

Weirded OUT... but anyway;

Hello there Icebreaker, and welcome. (Re-)Entering this community with a joke... always a good way to break the ice.

No? Noone? Not even a little giggle? Ah well.

Welcome anyway!

Hey, I already ignore my health too much, at least I can try not to mess up my back by not spending all of the time on the computer in a sedentary position

Well whatever, each many to his own and all that. I just like to be comfortable when I'm doing stuff if possible.

Welcome!

Welcome

Let me explain this, for people who have never been to Oulu. The guy has some chairs sitting around his computer. He does not use them. He kneels in front of it and types.

Maybe he's worshipping it.

Oh no, it's just that it's terribly comfortable. I think everyone will be doing it in the future.

I should buy the guy a pair of kneepads for Christmas. Wouldn't hurt to be even *more* comfortable while worshipping at the altar of the Machine God.

Welcome to Shireroth, Icebreaker. It seems we have another interesting new immigant. Hope you enjoy it here, and that Ari can show you the ropes. I am the Minister of Immigration and Naturalization and your immigration request is approved. Please look over the various Duchies available and let us know which one you have chosen for your home.

I think he already made his choice ...

Good point.

Welcome to Shireroth. I'm the Kaiser... and.. all that...
