Welcome, Cogito. To you I recommend True Blood, just because.

Welcome, barbiemonster. To you I recommend Portishead, because you mentioned you like music and I'm recommending them to everybody who likes music, and the Troper Dating Service because it needs more girls.

Welcome, Kuro Bara Hime. To you I recommend Urban Dead and Nation States, two excellent ways to waste time on the computer.

Welcome, nekoalexa. To you I recommend The Stand, because you mentioned The Bible as one of your favorite books and The Stand is a very religious novel, and the Troper Dating Service for the same reason as barbiemonster.

[up]And if The Stand is not for you, Swan Song is a very good book along the same lines.

Hello, my lovelies.

Like Linkara, I've been a longtime reader of t.v tropes, but never actually bothered to join. Well, I finally caved in, and here I am. I won't give out much personal information (Since I'm a paranoid fart. And the thing in the closet will get me.), but I'm 18, resemble your typical asian nerd, and am available (Laaaaadies).

My interests are tend to be at odd sides of the spectrum. I like Lovecraft, ancient mythology, P Terry, Christopher Lee, and canned peaches. I'm also fancy myself an artistic hack. Here's my deviantart, not that you'll take a look.

I'm a big comic book nerd. Fables and Hellboy are amongst my favorites.

I'm happily Evangelical Protestant, and am rather happy for the recent removal of the IJBM section (At least from the dark rumors I hear.)

And in case you haven't noticed, I have a liking for snark, self deprecation, and understatement.

So. Hi-ya. :/

Hi Pan, nice intro.

Make sure you write yourself a contributor page so we can vandalize it.

[up]Yup. I'll be sure to get right on that, once I return to the Batcav— Wait, forget I said that.

I couldn't resist.

Recommendation: Sandman. No Blatant Lies about how sweetness and light it is. Just read every piece of Neil Gaiman's work you can get your hands on. NAO.

Well, I read Sandman Mystery Theatre :P. And a lot of Alan Moore, which is like Neil Gaiman on crack and forgotten Roman snake gods.

Those were recommendations, not a joke. I've never played Touhou myself, but I second the recommendation for The Enigma Of Amigara Fault. It's a wonderful story.

Well, for Touhou, it's a wonderful game. It's surprisingly easy to learn and fun to watch.

Hiya Pan, I'd reccomend listening to Behemoth for no particular reason. XD

Welcome, Pan! Other than reiterating my recommendation of The Stand, I have no idea what else to recommend to a religious person... let's just say we're not walking the same path.
