More like the self appointed unofficial welcomer lol. Imagine going to Walmart and some random customer greeting you instead of the staffer, that's me lol. I did it once or twice a longggggg time ago and it kinda stuck and a few people I know here said I should keep it up. So far the staff hasn't said anything so I suppose I'm allowed to have my little routine with it hehe. I keep doing it simply because I think people feel better and more open to the idea of actually posting more regularly just by being welcomed. Kinda makes ya feel like part of the family I suppose. That or it just creeps you out hehe.

.....Those are brilliant words of wisdom.

Actually, my soul is already owned by the people of Ctrl-Alt-Del. I read the disclaimer on the bottom of their webpages that says:"
By reading this fine print your soul is now the exclusive property of Ctrl+Alt+Del and subsidiaries.
Unauthorized use of Ctrl+Alt+Del characters, images, materials, souls, odors, and oxygen is strongly discouraged. We know where you sleep."
