Hi, I'm Stopper, also known as ELGS.
Hello, blame VM for inviting me here.
I see that there is an entrance exam.
1. How'd you find the Freethought Forum?
I first heard of it from my friend Allan in chat, known as WinAce, who invited me to join the Internet Infidels Discussion Board and its "sister sites," Freethought Forum and Heathen Hangout in June 2004. I've been lurking here ever since, off and on. VM invited me to join tonight, so here I am.
2. Are you a member of any other online forums? Which?
If it's geared toward atheists I am probably registered on it, and if not, please tell me so I can go register. I am banned from IIDB and HH, and new to Raving Atheists and Gnawed.com, but have lurked long time on JREF. I'm also on several listservs on Yahoo Groups, mostly activism-oriented.
3. How do you feel about smilies (emoticons)?
They have their uses.
4. How do you feel about 3500+ smilies?
And I thought my hobby was annoying.
5. Is flaming:
A. Hilarious
B. Beneath you
C. Irritating as fuck
It's to be expected, but it's not necessary.
6. Is vulgar language:
A. Hilarious
B. Beneath you
C. Irritating as fuck
I fucking don't give a shit what you goddamn people think about vulgar language.
7. Why did the chicken cross the road?
Because if she didn't do it, nobody else would.
8. Who pays for your food?
You do, my fellow citizens. You and Mister Stopper.
9. What's one thing you've always wanted to do but never have?
Fly.
10. What is your single favorite place in the world?
At my desk.
11. What's the significance of your username?
It began as a chatroom joke on MSN in March 2002 but when challenged that I didn't actually do anything but "sit in my chat room and complain," I set out to become an activist in church-state separation and atheist visibility groups. I prefer ELGS or Stopper, but you can call me Janice if you prefer.
12. What about your avatar?
Ooh, goody, I'll use it. It was made by some internet person for a humorous faux-product, and I asked if I could use the image. He said fine. His website is no longer up.
13. What is one thing about you that is worthy?
I already own an official pin.

Re: Hi, I'm Stopper, also known as ELGS.
Camping was awesome this past weekend, thanks Julie. We have beautiful weather here in South Jersey, unseasonably warm, but the leaves are still falling. Our camping season has been extended for another month.

I first met you as warrenly on HH when liv and vm turned it over to you before Gurdur took it over.
I have already enjoyed reading your posts (and most people's posts here on FF).

Re: Hi, I'm Stopper, also known as ELGS.
Welcome, ELGS. You don't know me, but I've seen many of your posts while lurking at II. I've always admired your username wistfully from afar.
(And no, this isn't really a sock account. It might have been once upon a time, but the puppet took over and became the master.)

I think your user name is rather clever. And your sig is adorable.
Thanks to everyone for the warm welcome.

Good to talk to you again, too.
And curses, share some of that pie. You know, Pieism is my actual religion.

Now there's a cause I can get behind! I can't be a true Pieist, the Lake of Eternal Cake sounds good, too!
