I...um...was very busy. Had lots to do and such...um...Oh Ya! I remembered what I was doing, I was getting you a present from the Random Present Shoppe. I got you a rail car filled with electrical cords. You never know when you may need a wire or two to fix your control panel. they also make very handy leashes!
Hi! I'm Laura, aka Silikat, and I have read a couple of PPC stories. Upon finding them amusing, I Googled you and came here. And hating Mary-Sues as I do, I thought jumping on the bandwagon may be yet another good way to spend my time.
Yeah, that's all you need to know for now. Oh, apart from the fact that I'm completely insane *grins*
Have a griffin! Don't worry, it's house-trained.

Have a return wave and a welcome glomp, and a magician's Top Hat of Holding. Use it wisely.
Welcome to the Board! Please deposit your... um... pocket lint in the provided receptacle. *indicates bucket marked "Warg Fodder"* The poor dears haven't been eating well recently. Also, here's a glass vial full of shimmering colors.
*deposits contents of pockets* No, wait, that was my phone. Give it back! *grins* Thanks for the nice welcome.
*gives back* Start text messaging your friends in California and over-using the word "like", and I'll eat you.
Don't worry, most likely it shall be used for discussing last night's Doctor Who with friends down the road or something equally geeky.
Welcome, new friend, to the PPC Posting Board! Have some chocolate, and enjoy your stay here!
Welcome! The box I ordered just arrived, so here you go. Have a bladed yo-yo. Rhyme unintentional
Hooray! Another new insane person! I just joined recently too. Welcome.
I think this is the part where I give you something. So here! Have some bleeprin and a small blue Yeti.
Bleeprin? Sounds interesting. What is it?
A yeti! Yes, I always wanted one of them. I shall love him and hug him and call him George.
Welcome a'Board!
Someone will probably be along at some point to send you a bundle of links, mostly involving the PPC Wiki, especially the PPC itself, the Newbie FAQ, the Board FAQ, and the Guide to the PPC.
Oh, wait, they just have! :-P
Enjoy your time here with us, and have a platter of chocolate-covered profiteroles and a pet mongoose (available for collection in the PPC Mongoose Shelter in RC 2816).
Elcalion, welcoming.
Aha! I obviously have some studying to do then. To the Wiki!
Welcome to the PPC! Here's a dagger set from the Raven Armory and a bottle of bleeprin. We're all insane here. You'll have good company.
Yay for good company. And what si all this bleeprin stuff I've been getting? *confused*
Nice to meet you. Do you need some rain? We've been getting way too much of it where I'm from.
Completely insane? In a nice goofy way or in scary stabby way? Or somewhere in between, perhaps.
Anyway, have a free collection of tiny hats.
Although you never know. *dons hooded cloak* Cross me and I may turn nasty...
Have an imaginary pair of pants.
Now, can anybody tell me what the hell 'ciao' means, besides 'some sort of greeting'?
Ciao effectively means both hello and goodbye, depending on the context. It's a bit like aloha.
Welcome to the PPC! Here's a coxcomb. It's a sort of silly hat, with a Shakespearean lineage.
Wow, there have been a lot of new arrivals on the Board lately. It's lovely--so much activity! I hope you like it here.
*puts on coxcomb and looks proud* Yay! I'm sure I will like it here.
Big cats are great!
Fair winds!
Hello there. As per my usual, here's a [random generic item] and a pair of cufflinks.
Always useful, cufflinks.
Have a venomous arthropod! You may not need gloves to handle it.
I can use them to kill Sues.
I would say insanity is practically a job requirement around these parts.
That is definately a good thing, then.
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!
What fandoms do you follow?
I'm sure others will be by later with the big bag 'o links and bumper stickers, and a bucket marked 'warg fodder.'
Well, I follow Doctor Who, so I appreciate the scarf. Ditto Torchwood and Sarah Jane.
I'm also in Harry Potter (yay Pottersues!) and the musicals Cats and Wicked.
