You want fresh meat? I'll give you fresh meat . . .
 
Okay, not really. I'm no stranger to forums and avatar sites. Or at the very least, I was/am still trying to be a regular at Gaia. Failing miserably, I might add, especially since other sites that peak my interest keep popping up.

So. Major newbie and this is supposed to be an introduction, I believe? Okay, then.

*inhales* My name is Coconut. I'm twenty-one years old and a female, mind you, but keep your distance, as far as romance and flirting goes. I'm not a looker and I don't pretend to be, but alongside that I'm already taken. Uhm... wow, I suck at this. As far as free time goes, I enjoy doing a wide variety of things including reading, writing, watching movies, listening to music... erm... farting around on the internet. Though, lately, my girlfriend's been INSANELY obsessed with Harry Potter and she's pretty much gotten me back into it for the time being.

Overall, I'm one of the biggest nerds I know, yet I'm not quite the kind of nerd that fixes computers or plays MTG or D&D. I've started learning how to play Magic and I'm looking into D&D, though. Have to start somewhere, yeah?

Okay... I'm rambling... either way...

HI PEOPLE. 8D

It's okay, we love nerds! xD
Welcome to the land of Menewsha! :D

Wavi 03-12-2010 11:11 PM

Ha ha ha.
Idk about the nerd thing.
I go to a tech school. XD

But anyways, welcome and enjoy! :D

Noxialis 03-12-2010 11:12 PM

Fellow DnD'er, eh? Welcome! Dungeons and Dragons is pretty much the most epic thing, ever.

i know!! gaia is so hard >_< i can't seem to ever get enough gold.. ever. i guess you need a good tank for booty grab to get gold in gaia... it sucks.....

bakacoconut 03-12-2010 11:17 PM

So many replies in such a short amount of time. Will I ever keep up, here? oO;;

@demoscout: thank you for the warm welcome and I absolutely LOVE your signature. .D

@Wavikz: Trust me, if I could go to tech school, I would. Erm. Maybe. I'm also a huge literature nerd.

@Noxialis: Not quite a D&D nerd, but I want to be. I'm kind of hoping someone I know will sit down face-to-face and explain it to me and maybe let me sit in and watch them play with their group.

@tomie chan: Gaia's not really that hard if you have a good connection for playing BootyGrab. I can usually make a couple grand in a few hours playing.

Kyuuketsuki_Kisu 03-12-2010 11:17 PM

Gaia blows. >.< Makes me mad...

And Hullo, Miss. Coconut...Dungeons and Dragons...I got a meeting with my group tonight...Didn't think I was a nerd.

Nah. I'm a nerd! ^.^ Welcome to mene! Feel free to ask for help and stuff. Yeah!

Wavi 03-12-2010 11:18 PM

Ha ha ha.
Nothing wrong with tech schools.
Oh wait. We have creepers.
T_T
I just love our 3:1 male:female ratio.
YAY creepers! :D
...not

bakacoconut 03-12-2010 11:20 PM

@Kyuuketsuki_Kisu: Nothing wrong with being a nerd, really. Just sounds like you're a bit of a gaming nerd. And personally, I don't think Gaia "blows". There's just... forgive me if this is insulting... a lot of wankers on there.

@Wavikz: Haaaaaaaaaay. I live with a creeper. It's not that bad. 8D
And I'm curious... how'd you come up with your username on here? oO;;

Wavi 03-12-2010 11:24 PM

:P
I'm Wavikz on Gaia as well as deviantART.
I think I'm also Wavikz on runescape, photobucket, and a tone of other places. :D
Since my nickname Aleu is taken a lot, I made up one with the letters I liked.
And BAM! Wavikz was born.
Although now I refer to Wavikz as my inner demon. ^^;

bakacoconut 03-12-2010 11:27 PM

Aha. Okay, that makes sense. It just seemed kind of amazing and stuff so I figured I'd ask if there was some kind of story behind it.... and stuff. Yeah, I have a habit of tacking that on the end. Bad habit.
And Immah go out on a limb here.... "Heartagram Hugs and Razorblade Kisses".... HIM fan, y/n?

Wavi 03-12-2010 11:29 PM

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS SSSS!

bakacoconut 03-12-2010 11:32 PM

That's all kinds of awesome right there. 8D
I don't know why, but that just made my WHOLE day.

Wavi 03-12-2010 11:33 PM

SCORE! :D
I win!
Not sure what I win, but I win.
OH CRAPPP!
I'd love to stay and chat for a while longer, but I needa go to chess match practice.
Erm, I should extend on that. Human chess match practice. :D

Albie626 03-12-2010 11:33 PM

Welcome i hope you like it here!!

Sakyda 03-12-2010 11:33 PM

Welcome to Mene! I hope you enjoy everything! I'm fairly new here too and as for as I can tell everyone here is very friendly, way better then Gaia. >>; Also I was trying to get into D&D too. Then I had my son and didn't seem to have the time for many things anymore. -.-0 But anyway, Yea, Welcome!

CaptainCrossbones 03-12-2010 11:33 PM

Welcome Bakacoconut! I'm failing at being a regular on gaia too, which makes me feel bad for a reason....

I didn't think that anyone played Magic anymore, I've been playing since I was in high school, I'm 26 now so it's been awile lol

Sakyda 03-12-2010 11:35 PM

O.o CaptainCross... I love your siggy!

CaptainCrossbones 03-12-2010 11:46 PM

@Sakyda Why thank you;)

Noxialis 03-12-2010 11:46 PM

Be forewarned, sitting in on a session and just watching is known to be one of the most boring things EVER. Try convincing the Dungeon Master to allow you to be an NPC that helps the group with things and such. It's a good way to get your feet wet.

Sakyda 03-12-2010 11:47 PM

@CaptainCross No Problem!

bakacoconut 03-12-2010 11:58 PM

@Wavikz: HUMAN chess? That's AWESOME. I don't even know anyone that will just sit and play chess with me, let alone anyone that would want to play human chess.

@Albie626: Thank you. .D

@Sakyda: Yeah, children seem to sap the time away... not that I have kids of my own, but I've been a constant live-in babysitter since before Christmas. But since my girlfriend and I will be moving soon, I'm hoping I'll be able to try and get into it.

@CaptainCrossbones: Yeah, my girlfriend plays and she was teaching me back when I first moved in. She ended up building me a deck out of some of her older cards. She hasn't played a whole lot since high school, but she still loves it. And I absolutely LOVE your signature. .D

@Noxialis: Thanks for the tip. I'll have to keep it in mind.

Kyuuketsuki_Kisu 03-12-2010 11:59 PM

Nah, don't bother why an NPC. Just start with a group of friends, they'll be able to help ya! >.> And don't say mean things about the NPC out loud....Make sure you whisper... *Shudders* The barmaid hurt me...

bakacoconut 03-13-2010 12:01 AM

Only issue is the only person I know that plays D&D is my girlfriend and she's looking into getting into the group one of her coworkers is in.
Kinda sucks being in a new place where I don't know anybody. <<;;

Kyuuketsuki_Kisu 03-13-2010 12:11 AM

I feel you. I've moved to Arkansas from Chicago...BIG change. And I know like three people. But try to get in with her. Most of the time, groups are really open about that, at least from my experiance.
