3. Who is your favorite author? Lo Kuan Chung/William Shakespeare

4. What are your favorite films? Kill Bill, Ninja Scroll, too many to list =P

5. What music do you want played at your wedding? Thats a tough one. Depends...

13. Why did you join? looking for a new community to connect with cool people. ^_^ And seriously hoping im not stumbling into another group of condescending haters =P This place certainly looked like it had a diverse and unique community so i suppose that was my inspiration.

Great Question, Basically the people most of us can't stand. Key traits: Intentionally abrasive and condescending attitudes towards other members, questionable logic, misdirected attempts at amusement or feeling of superiority. Ones that probably come places like here for no reason besides to talk repetitive $#@^ to all the random members for petty reasons. (browsed for a while and didn't see any here so i was quite happy about that =P) Please do not take it as an accusation toward anyone here as it was in no way intended as such. I apologize if it appeared that way. My decision to name the topic 'Bad a Intro's' ended up being swiftly prophetic, lol.

That's OK, HP. I just said pretty basic stuff (I'm still learning myself! ^_^)

Um... translation:

"Welcome. How do you do? Nice to meet you.

HumanePain, you speak Japanese? I'm surprised!"

That was it...
...by the way, that Navy website is really useful!
