Hello to the denizens of this forum. Just joined. Not sure what to say about myself. I'm 22, live in NorCal, i spend most of my time plugged into a computer. Not sure what I'd do without the internet. Having all the information you could want at your fingertips isn't something I'd want to give up. I play a lot of poker, pool, and video games. Big fan of adultswim and most shows that air on comedy central. I worked as a projectionist at a movie theatre for four years, so I'm a bit of a movie nerd. Aperger's Syndrome was suggested to me by a therapist I was seeing about a year ago, and after a lot of research, it makes complete sense to me. I never bothered to get an official diagnoses. I'm not so concerned with the label, but more interested in meeting other people who share my tendencies. I have trouble communicating with most people, cause the expect me to be like them. I look like your typical 22 year old college guy. Anywho, I've found "odd" people to be far more interesting than your average joe, and I'm looking forward to contributing to the forums here. Lata

Welcome... and, out of interest, does "Modern Toss" get aired in the States?

Welcome to WP. Is your username inspired by Shaka Zulu by any chance?

Welcome
I miss Adult Swim. My parents switched to a very limited form of cable.
I live a lot through the computer, but my real passion is music.

Holy crap. For some reason, i wasn't expecting so many replies. Most appreciated.

Brittany2907: I noticed you're from New Zealand. If I could visit anywhere in the world, I would visit there. Is the scenery really as gorgeous as the tour guides promote?
computerlove: Yup, definitely down with the robot chicken. So random.
lau: Afraid I've never heard of it. Tho, I don't follow some of the "newer" shows on the adult swim lineup.
Sapphix: Yup, good ol' shake. He's such an ***hole, but you gotta love 'em.
militarybrat: I'm down to chat, can't promise i'll be particularly interesting :ninja: I was gonna go with a wink, but when I saw the ninja turtle I couldn't help myself.
Ana54: You can call me Shaky, or whatever makes you happy. I think i was diagnosed with social anxiety back when I was 15/16 or something. I'm not particularly noticed at parties, until I clean up at the poker table. Made 50 bucks at a Halloween party. And yeah, NorCal means northern California. I live in Sacramento, or rather right near there. I didn't expect there to be many people on here from around here.
TheMidnightJudge: A cable package without cartoon network? Dude, one word, "refund."

Thanks for the responses everyone. Good to meet y'all.
