Entering ur cultz
I'm new here and thought I'd drop by to introduce myself. I'm Jaakko, 20, an amateur musician and a professional slacker from Finland. I've been an avid reader of Chuck for a long time now. My story has probably been heard before: it started with Fincher's [I]Fight Club[/I] soon after it came out, and, well, as I was in a fragile state of mind it had a hell of an influence on me. Since then I've read all his novels -- although I must admit that when it came to [I]Diary[/I] I had to call it quits, but I hope to finish that one as well some day. As for my favorite: it is a three-way tie between [I]Survivor[/I], [I]Choke[/I] and [I]Invisible Monsters[/I], but aside from [I]Diary[/I], the only book I really didn't dig was [I]Rant[/I]. I'm also a big fan of Bret Easton Ellis, Hubert Selby Jr., Fedor Dostoevsky, Charles Bukowski, ... You know the drill.
I've been following the Cult for quite a time (a few years in fact) but it took me until five minutes ago to register. I've been really lazy with this internet-based social life but this seems like a good-enough place to start.
Feel free to talk to me about anything, 'cos ultimately, I'm just amazingly bored. You wouldn't believe how bored I am.
Slacker, I like you already........ guess what I'm doing as I type this? Slacking.
Jaakko is a pretty interesting name, where'd you find it?
The sad puppy above is Levi, and I'm Jessica. Oh yeah, welcome, and deepest darkest secret is a must.
you'll fit in perfectly then, a bored slacker lol.
welcome jaakko. I just joined myself, so we're both noobs
Ha, nice to meet you people! Levi, Jessica, jsh092 and... MeatHook. I like your name for some reason. Sad puppies are cool too, I just got to know one last week.
Meanwhile, my name is somewhat common in Finland. I think it's supposed to be a Finnish version of James. Or maybe Jack. I don't even know. Then again, my second name is an ancient Finnish God of forest, which I think is kind of cool since there aren't many things I love more than forests. Whiskey, maybe. Chuck Palahniuk's novels, perhaps.
As for my deepest darkest secret.. I don't really know. What I can tell you is something not many people know about me. The ones that know, probably don't know that I know. And I truly hope these people aren't as good internet spies as I fear. Mom. Dad. This is not really me talking. (Now that I previewed my post that last phrase got a whole new meaning! ;D)
So, I happen to know that just before I was born my mother had had an abortion. My parents weren't married at the time, at any time, which was nothing short of a great thing. I've tried picturing us as one big happy family, but that's just bullshit. When she a little later got pregnant with dear old me, cumulating in her womb, she was again this close to having an abortion. But she didn't. So you can really say I was super close at never being born. Or: I was very close at being born as a different person. Or: into a different body. Now the thing is, the aborted child before me sometimes disturbs the hell out of me. What if I am actually him? What if he is actually me? What if I, thus, don't even really exist? I even have a name for this [I]other[/I] kid..
But you need to understand that I don't experience these things essentially as [I]bad[/I] things. I think I just have a lot to learn about myself. But sometimes I think that the other kid might be mad at me. After all, wasn't it him who was supposed to live instead of me?
And by the way, I am pro-abortion all the way. 
Welcome. Tell me us something about me.
That's a pretty complex secret.
I was suppose to have a younger brother, but due to some complication, my mom ended up aborting him. He'd be..... 12 maybe? I always thought I'd like to have a brother, I think I'd get along better with a brother than a sister. Besides, a little kid to boss around would be great.
I missed the Finland part. Don't know anyone from that area, but it sounds quite cold.
Welcome, Jaakko, I like your name and your introduction. I'm sure you'll mesh in nicely with the rest of us here.
Yeah. That secret of mine wouldn't even be such a big deal if it [I]hadn't been kept a secret[/I]. Now it's just an idea I like to play with. 
Meh, with this global warming we'll all soon end up one happy tropical family. I live in Southern Finland and while it sure can get cold here, it is nothing like ten or fifteen years ago. Back then we had a thick layer of snow throughout the winter, and had it melt away, it would always snow back in just a few days. In the last five years things have actually as much as [I]reversed[/I].
Hello and Welcome Fellow European
Is Cujo a good name for a cat?
Enjoy your stay!
Cool! you're cool.
Uhm, welcome, and tell us even more about yourself. THink of the deepest darkest secret, and spill it.
