1. How'd you find the Freethought Forum?
I've seen it mentioned in some of the seedier Internet hangouts I frequent.
2. Are you a member of any other online forums? Which?
Yes, one for the crazies, one for the eggheads, and one for the writers.
3. How do you feel about smilies (emoticons)?
It's interesting you should ask, I've recently been pondering this very question. I don't think there is an internet standard as to their use, or purpose. At least not one that is readily known. I've personally always been somewhat confused as to the purpose of emoticons.
LOL too while we're at it. What the fuck does that mean, really?
Is an emoticon (or lol) a representation of the emotions of the sender, or a communicational effigy? In other words, is that smiley laughing at you, or with you?
I think they are both, actually. And I think we use them interchangeably, innately. Though it is an easy place for miscommunication.
I'm plagiarizing myself from another site (the one for the crazies).
4. How do you feel about 3500+ smilies?
Suicidal. Homocidal. Genocidal.
5. Is flaming:
A. Hilarious
B. Beneath you
C. Irritating as fuck
D. Any or all of the above, depending on the situation.
D
6. Is vulgar language:
A. Hilarious
B. Beneath you
C. Irritating as fuck
D. Any or all of the above, depending on the situation.

7. Why did the chicken cross the road?
Because the road, as they often are, was separating the Chicken's natural habitat from his natural feeding ground. This wasn't, of course, your standard model, modern day, fryer. This was some kind of primordial Chicken we're talking about here: The first Chicken to cross the first road. He made it across, and someday - the old Chickens tell the young impressionable Chickens - he will return and lead all across the road to the promised land.
Some Chickens think that's just a story, but they're sinners - doomed to an eternity in the lake of boiling grease. Well, only about 5 minutes actually, then they go in a bucket.
8. Who pays for your food?
I usually buy the food, but on burrito night everybody pays.
9. What's one thing you've always wanted to do but never have?
Stalk and kill someone I found on an Internet forum.
10. What is your single favorite place in the world?
Kona, HI
11. What's the significance of your username?
