Hey, I'm new here, I'm Packie. I frequent a few other forums (thehaloforum, thisisforem) but I've always been interested in TV and film in all its facets, so I thought I would join this forum to discuss film and TV meta.

I'm the guy who does his job. You must be the other guy.

New people! Two at once! Welcome. I hope you enjoy yourself. Bid farewell to your free time, and grab a slice of pizza in the foyer.

WELCOME NEWER PEOPLE.

MAKE YOURSELVES AT HOME.

I AM HOPEY.

YOUR SOON-TO-BE SON.

Someone else explain what I mean by that, because I have explained it too many times to too many people.

That was the amazing part. Things just keep going.

I've been on the forums before but infrequently. It takes a while for me to form habits and my work and school schedules keep me away from things, combined with my short attention span. So... I'll post here again.

I have played Borderlands now, but my Undead Ned persona predates it!

Let's get the introductions over with, shall we? [down]I'm just a bored Scottish teenager who discovered TV Tropes from a chain of links so monstrously large, I can't remember where I came from any more. [down]I've been examining this place for a month or so, to get an idea of what tropers consider acceptable. [down]I saw a wonderful, intelligent community, a place that swept aside the constant stream of trolls, tweens and toilet humour that is 95% of the internet and replaced it with pure [1]. [down]Oh, and I learned the lingo too! [down]I'm not giving away any truly personal information, because I'm really freaking paranoid. tongue [down]So hi, and let's see if I can become a respected troper!

If you're a Rangers fan you're going to get hell in the football thread here in YF.

Other than that, I'm sure you'll get a warm welcome everywhere, as our Scottish tropers tend to be pretty cool. (Not as cool as the Canadian ones but slightly cooler than the Germans. Oh, and almost infinitely cooler than the Greeks.)

Paranoid? You're paranoid? You're just like me!

Wait...

WHO TOLD YOU THAT YOU WERE PARANOID? WHO DO YOU WORK FOR? OUT WITH IT!

Anyway, welcome! But if I get a hint that you're working with those Ninjas, Trolls, and other plagues upon both our worlds to try to poison my meals, or that you've been trying to collect information on my habits to make sniping me easier...

Err... Anyway, enjoy your stay!

[up][up]I asked Wikipedia to help me respond to that.

Germany.

Scotland.

Only two more things need to be said:

1. We're no cooler than either of you. (Also: this.)

2. Scotland still has no excuse for the bagpipes, so there's that.

To be honest, I'm half convinced we created the bagpipes as a form of psychological warfare. The only issue we have with using it these days is that Americans seem to enjoy it.

I guess we could go... wherever we please.

Look. Scotland = bagpipes and kilts. Germany = lederhosen and Oktoberfest. USA = religious fundamentalism and dying from too much junk food. Finland = I don't know what 'cause no one's ever heard of us.

That's how it works.

Yeah, bagpipes are actually kind of cool to listen to. We have foiled your plans! Ahaha!
