Welcome to the forum Trutch!
Ah yes, Drinking and Surfing can be a very dangerous activity. I will tell you that it does start out mostly as "gag a day" strip but will morph into a much more intricate and overarching set of stories that tend to be all interconnected in some surprising way. Though usually Pete does still sneak a punchline in there. Still can't fathom how Pete keeps all of the various story-lines straight and be able to still surprise everyone with reveals.
Anyway [member's name here], now I will tell you about the strange tradition aimed at newcomers.
At one time there were Pesterers who pestered you for poetry, but that tends to be very rare nowadays. Even though you may not be pestered, if you do go and post an original poem --usually haiku but any (clean) type is accepted-- written by you, you will most likely receive a gift in return. The "gift" will most likely be useless or maim you. Whichever it may be, it should be interesting and surprising. Lastly, this strange tradition applies to the pestering not the poetry. You are not required to do anything more to be a member here...unless you want to possibly get a [name of harmlessly fatal item here] or some other type of gift.
Now go forth and do (almost) whatever you want, just don't speculate in Reactions.
