...Insanity--key word here. The weather (amoung other things) is making me insane. Okay, okay, who am I really kidding? I've always been insane! But it seems like a healthy attribute here. Perhaps this is a safe place for me?
If I were facing you, this would probably be nearly inaudible (I always struggle with projection, but especially when I'm nervous.), but oh the joys of writing! Hello!
Welcome to the PPC! Here's a Glitter-proof shield from the Raven Armory and a bottle of bleeprin. I realize that I'm rather late, but I did want to say hello before the thread dropped off the front page. We're all insane here to one degree or another, so you're in good company.
Fair winds!
Thanks everyone for the welcomes and all the gifts and firsts--I'll sew them in my clothes, tie them in my hair, wear them proudly!
As to the fandom question...I'm not entirely sure what the term "fandom" does and does not encompass, but let's see:
I'm in to Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Narnia...
and I'm obsessed with Peter Pan and Alice in Wonderland.
Hahahaha!
Issa goblin! Mwahahaha!!!
Have a tin of mints! And a first glomp! *glomps*
HELLO!
Have a very large carpetbag and a flying parrot-headed umbrella. (Now if you'll excuse me I have to run, there's a very annoyed nanny chasing me.)
Hi
Well, I hope you enjoy it here... I guess...
*Returns to hiding*
Welcome! Have a coxcomb. It's a sort of silly hat. And it's impossible to be nervous when one is wearing a silly hat.
Welcome to the Board! I usually tell people to feed their sanity to the Wargs, but you're insane, so I'll just settle for first GLOMP!
Pleased to meet you you. Have a nice sharp pencil.
Come in. Sit down. Have a cup of Bloffee! And, as a gift from me to you, have a glitter-encrusted spork. *nods* May you use it wisely.
Welcome to the PPC! Since you have no sanity, have a Sunny instead! ^^ Perfect for cuddling, and she makes great eggs too!

We're nice here, for the most part!
...it's difficult for all of this, at the beginning. Good job! Anyway, if you really want to talk quietly, you can use <small> tags to make your text look like this. Just make sure to close your message or passage with a </small> tag. In fact, all (or almost all) html works on the board. You can see everything here. And take a bladed yo-yo. This one comes with edge guards.
We won't bite if you bite back hard enough. Have a cell. Not the phone kind, the protazoa kind. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go find a wonton and have a seizure.
Hello! Have a seventeen foot long, multi-colored, wool, knit scarf (curly wig not included), and a bag of jelly babies.
Please use them IRresponsibly!
So what kind of fandoms do you follow?
Hmm... gifts, gifts... hmm...
Have an extra-strength espresso!
Hello and welcome to the Board! Here, have some chocolate, and enjoy your stay!
The joys of writing indeed. I've never been worth much as a public speaker, either. But here, everyone speaks at the same volume, when not suffering from Caps Lock Syndrome.
Help yourself to a venomous arthropod!
Welcome to the PPC boards! Enjoy this bowler hat (complete with razor blade hidden the brim for impromptu fights) as a gift.
