Well played Exagenous, well played. I'm not to familiar with Orson's work. I only heard of Enders Game around the time Shadow Complex came out (and when he said all those stupid things).

Well there isn't all that much to me except for the following:
- Found the show through ads on Anime Pacific and Anime World Order
- Heard an episode with bad audio but inexplicably gave one more episode a try.
- Now addicted to this show. (no REALLY I am. I drive down to Safeway JUST so I can download 10 episodes, DAILY!)
- Been downloading every episode since #1! (currently on August of 2008)
- I'm in school, a lot. (Graduate school BLOWS! I need a real life)
- With each episode my humor becomes more and more juvenile (you've transformed me Dave).
- I love manga, it's doing things that I wish more comics would.
- The more ridiculous a manga is (like Getter Robo) the better it is.
- I kind of like lists...
- Oh and I'm an insomniac.

Then it's your duty to breed and create more mecha fans. It's the only way to overcome the scourge of moe...

Hey all.

I also somehow used space magic to post from a null account. Awesome.

secretly a photographer makes you sound like the creepy guy that takes pictures of chicks in the building across the street at night with one of those telescoping photo lenses

Hey there, dudes.

I'm Dave, born in and grew up near Chicago, presently studying Molecular Bio at the University of Illinois in Urbana-Chamapign so that I fulfill the Midwestern Dream-- which is to escape the Midwest. Like some of the other recent introductions, I'm active on the GeekNights boards and decided to get active here now that you're a part of the wonderful world of Vanilla. I've been listening to FKFTG for about four years now, along with GeekNights and Greatest Movie Ever.

I love reading just about anything I can get my hands on (comics, novels, anything), and have a burgeoning t-shirt and board game collection going. I watch a decent amount of anime (Panty and Stocking was the last series I was really into) and movies; I've got a soft spot for kung-fu and chanbara, B-Movies, and late 70s/early 80s films. I'll be spending a year living in the UK next year, and am a bit of an Anglophile. Lately, I've been playing a ton of Bad Company 2 and Minecraft.

As far as not-geeky things go, I enjoy kayaking, hiking/backpacking, traveling, and soccer. I'm a dyed-in-the-wool beer lover and foodie, and I can tell you about plenty of good beers or restaurants, native to Chicago or not.

Hi new friend!

Hi.

I'm Finnish university student and a geek. Have been listening to the podcast for couple of years for now.

I'm a huge lover of video games, those fill my days when nothing else does. I also play table top role playing games and little bit boardgames. So gaming is quite strong in me. I also occasionally watch some animes. My (too small) collection of comic books has given me lots of enjoyment as has and will my self of novels.

I think that's that. There might be more, but seriously, how much me centered text are you willing to read? Not much I'd bet.

Suicide is so passé. Now we go mad trying to invent eternal rejuvenation elixirs and spend centuries trying and failing to make really good quiche Lorraine. Our failures make us regret our endless lives, but we are dragged on by the hope of proper quiche consistency.

Do your dislikes spread to other miniature dogs or are they limited to the unfortunately shrunk Pinschers?

My likes are: Saint Bernards, Guiron, and the word Haberdashery

My dislikes are: Miniature Pinschers, Space Godzilla and the word Ginormous

I think you and I are going to get along just fine.

I don't know, I like it.

I'm generally not fan of any dog who happens to be smaller than my cat. My distaste for Mini-Pins comes from four years of living next door to someone who owned one. Those dogs are fueled by spite and hate.

So...what, you have the one happy, spiteless cat in the world?

The min-pin might as well just be a giant mouse that can bark, anyway. I bet your cat could beat it in a fight.

lul

I like you already.

Northerner, eh?

That city name is oddly close to "triste." I like it.

Potato gnocchi is wonderful, and don't let anyone say otherwise. If they do, strike them about the head. It's important to fight for love.

Oh noes! They takes mah umbrellah!

Hey guys, my name's Tom, I'm an English literature student from New Zealand. Love the show and have been listening to it for as long as I can remember, sadly its taken me this long for me to get around to joining the forums.
Playing dem vidjagames is a big part of who I am, and currently I am awaiting with great anticipation the release of The Witcher 2.

Feels great to be a part of the FK forums.

Hi Chakandara.

Shouldn't you be eating Red Robin and shooting a moose or something?

Why am I not surprised you chose Tank Girl as an avatar?

And there aren't any moose in Alaska, at least not for long, because they are shot on sight.

James from Dunedin, New Zealand.
Been listening for a few years and after watching the resident evil livecasts I felt like exploring the scary depths of the forums.
I'm a gamer (PSN trophy level 15 >>) who dabbles in animu (I may have created a anime club when I was in high school that I recently discovered remains successful despite my best efforts)
I also have a bad tendency to talk in plural because I am so used to doing everything with my partner so please excuse me if I do it, I try not to.

Tell me how you feel about the fact the most notable thing from New Jersey is the Jersey Shore.
