Hiya, The Poet Maelstorm here, I guess I can file in for this little thing. I used to post avidly around this place... kinda dropped to a lurker after Lifes troubles got in the way... Probably forgotten by most. I'm hoping that if i can find a decent connection I'll be able to be on more, but I seem to exist only in the twilight zone.

Hi all!

Used to post here long time ago, kinda dropped off the face of the earth for a while (aka "schoolwork"...). I've been reading since the middle of Kitten II.

Haiku? What the hey...

Reading Sluggy is
A favorite pastime but
I lack writing skills...

Wow...uh anyway, nice to meet you all (and some of you again?).

I'm Chibi-Tatsu, also self-reference as 'Sunhawk'; quite eccentric and with many (mostly useless) hobbies.

Well, except reading scifi and fantasy... that's not useless. But writing fanfiction definitely is, as is watching politics, playing computer games and RPGs, baiting my brother (well, okay, that's useful), reading japanese manga, and studying whatever catches my interest this week ^_^

I've been reading Sluggy Freelance since... geez, must have been about 2000, or maybe a bit before. I've just been too lazy to register with the forum before.

Hi peeps! Skullx2003 here. I've read Sluggy since the Fire and Rain storyline. I'm also known as "Skullx" or "The Avatar Pimp". The Pimp title comes fromt he long line of 200 or so hand created avatars I've done for people on the Sluggy Boards, Live Journal, or other assorted uses.

Feel free to check out my work at: http://www.geocities.com/hymiez/Avatars.htm

I also draw a comic book called "Captain Drew And His Crew Of Two". We all remember comic books right? ;) You can check out the site for that at http://www.radbu.com

Let me know if you need an Avatar!

My name is AlphaOmega. I used to post before the great forum crash but stopped for awhile. After coming back to re-register I was suprised to see that my account was still working so I am using this one instead of ctreating a new one.

I can't remember exactly when I started to read Sluggy. I think it was either durring DDA or the Holiday Wars. Anyway ever since then I have been reading Sluggy faithfully.

Now I just have to get of my ass and get a DOTN account....

When I read "Re-introductions..." I thought I posted this in the wrong thread. But here it is again, as if you couldn't get enough!

those were all the people at the reintroductions thread.

Av Pimp- my original "skullx" disappeared here, probably with the death of Nuke. After 2 years, I gotta sport something new now. That's okay though. Probably going to switch to one of Krail's I stole a year ago.

Hello, I am Steamboat_Pirate, a hopeless n00b who stumbled upon Sluggy and was prompted to lock himself down to read the entire archives. I'm a typical social outcast teenager who seeks to find acceptance in the anonymousnessosity of the internet, or just being a wiseass then dissapearing behind a couch. I shall leave you all with a secret passed on by generations of generations


No bird flies too high, if it flies with silver nitrate powered rocket engines and has ozone breathing bio-lungs, and then it will destroy us all with its ultrablue supersonic screech!

*taps watch* Ha! The prophecy went unfulfilled!

But seriously, good to see you again man.

Hey, I tried, but you know, holiday benders and all just got in the way. Domination is soon at hand.

hey ya, I'm the sluggite known as Soulhunter, SH, that damnguy, Dirk, and whatever else I'm called behind my back. I've been on the boards since August 2001, but have a tendency to post in a flurry for a while, then drop totally out of sight for weeks to months at a time. I've got some pictures on sluggy pics, which were taken when I joined, so now I'm aged, overweight, badly balding, and... short. Actually, I pretty much look the same all the time. My job doesn't permit much alteration in physical appearance.

Used to be that I hung out in General Chat all the time, where I was known as a conversation stopper, until some clever sluggite/sluggette figured out that I was simply ignored, I couldn't stop the conversation. In recent months, I have spent more time in WGARS and POOP. Also used to be a reliable greeter of newbies in the intro thread/revolving door, but I got a little bored with that.

So, I'm still here, kinda.
-soul

alliterator here. I found Sluggy Freelance a couple weeks ago and obsessively read the entire series (all seven years of it) within three days. Um, that's it.

I may as well.

Hi, I'm Fieari. I entered my first state of Sluggy Withdrawl Syndrome, that is to say, went from the firehose of reading months at a time to the I.V. drip of daily on New Years, Y2K with his "Oops, my pencil isn't Y2K compliant" filler strip. I've been a faithful reader ever since, and I used to post a fair amount, but then started to lurk, stopping by only when there was a particularly interesting strip I wanted to see your comments on. Ahh... I remember fondly when we were all arguing about what the "Ch" could possibly mean, and someone came OUT OF THE BLUE with the speculation that it might be "hC" instead, and turned out to be RIGHT. Who'dathought? That's the kind of speculation that always amazes me about the sluggites here.

Obviously, since I just stated that I come around here when something particularly interesting is happening, I've been hooked to these forums during TWR. It was likewise for F&R.

Haiku:

Always amazéd
By the speculations
That can be found here

Greetings! I'm Wireball, 6'3" with grey skin (although I look shorter in the picture), and a mere 145 pounds. I prefer colder climates, where I tend to surround myself with computers and use them for heating.

I'm a student at various colleges looking for an education in engineering, with great experience in computers, particularly hardware. Strangely enough, I haven't gotten the hang of using GNU/Linux regularly yet, though I'm going to take a stab at it again this year.

I started reading Sluggy Freelance about a month after the space mummy guest strip - found it via link from Schlock Mercenary. I joined Sluggy.net in November of 2003, and I've used the Wireball name exclusively since around 1997 (it's based on the name of one of our computers).

I'd write a haiku
but I lost my haiku-analyzer
and I'm not very good at counting syllables ;)

*gives bags of assorted archaic computer parts all around*

I'm Caito. I joined more than a year ago, but for some reason I don't remember I stopped posting and started lurking. Now I think I'll return to postingness so... hi. All. I don't want to write another haiku.

I actually saved my orignal intro here it it...

Little Soxy C,
always spinning on the web.
Sluggy Freelance, see

OK so that is the tradition greeting now how's about some poetry from my ethnic origins...limericks

Sox Clinton was a cat
His owner, a tad bit fat
He was the Prez
He got some Head
He ate to many Macs

One day the prez got old
To his rival the vote was sold
His name is Bush
He's a pain in my tush
and his feet are covered with mold

India ink is now the pet
of our presidential vet.
Socks Clinton they say
The name is passé
But he will be remembered yet.

Now, his owner is fired
his name should be retired
But I long I came
and took his name
when the screen name was listed "for hire"

Each day I read the funnys
when I should be making money
And when I turn fifty
It'll still be nifty.
and the laughs will still be puny

My favorite of all is Riff
Oasis can jump off a cliff
Zoe thinks she a whore
Stay away from her Torg
and Kiki is just terrif

And now my poem is done
I know it has really been fun
But soon I’ll be sick
from a menacing Ka-Clik
‘cause the rhyming annoyed Bun-Bun
