New Here
Hey. I've been lurking for awhile and finally decided to join. I enjoy writing, but most of it is experimental and needs a lot of work before I get it critiqued. I've read a few of the short stories in the self assignment section here and I must say I'm pretty damn impressed. I've been reading Palahniuk since 1999 and have tried collecting as many editions and anthologies as I can. Of course, Palahniuk isn't all I read and I pretty much enjoy the process of reading any book. I think a lot of writers are underrated because of the hype of all the "popular" writers out there (Damn you, Oprah).
I'll look forward to talking to all of you and getting to read more of your work.

Your userame's something of a mouthful. Can we call you Knitter?
All the same - welcome!
Sure, why not 
Reading it backwards might help solve the problem, though

MR. Pretty In Pink. The Ringwald thing is just coincidence.
See you around the forum-

i read it as "Nipple Lighter" for some reason
Is that you in your avatar? HOT. I have some pictures of me working a pretzel, I should set one of them as my avatar and get some cyber action.
Hell yeah, there isn't anything better than sixty year old men jacking off to your pictures and stalking you. (Kidding. Or am I? ) That is indeed me in the picture. Kind of jokingly I decided to take a picture of myself in the mirror because it's the typical MySpace stereotype. It didn't turn out half bad, but if I really wanted it to be "MySpace" I should have added more angle to the camera so no one could see me face. Dammit.

If it was so myspace you'd be able to see the camera! But hey, live and learn!
Damn, I'll have to pick up some pointers from Tom. My pictures are just not MySpace enough *emo tear*. At least Tom is my friend!

ahaha, so right.
Hi Andrea, welcome to the cult! You don't have to sign each of your posts..
I done and deleted Tom. I don't even know him! HOW DARE HE {PRESUME TO NAME ME AS A FRIEND!!
I think it's habit from writing advice columns. Or did I completely make that up? Either way, I'll avoid doing it from now on.

Hi #Mirkmeister!
Um...what was I going to say?
Oh yeah! welcome! Pretty in pink! That film is boring enough. But welcome to the Cult.
You'll enjoy it.
Ignore the Mirka she personally loathes the self title'ing of every post. Welcome and what not these things aren't my bag....welcoming and all.

You can start an advice column thread at the cult and sign your name as much as you want.
We call them the ask me anything threads.

Oh shaddup. Your bag is to get drunk and talk about women in a debasing way!
[QUOTE=mirka]GIMMEE SOME COFFEE IN A BIG CUP OR I WILL KILL YOU! [/QUOTE]
I want some tea.
That's the problem, everyone thinks I'm referring to Molly Ringwald. I'm not. It's actually MR. Pretty In Pink, and it has a long story behind it which I'll save for another time.

You read my posts....that made me smile.
As fun as that sounds, I think I'll leave it to the professionals like Jerry.

Haven't you heard? Happy-Go-Lucky doesn't sell anymore.

How could you say such a thing? Being jaded isn't such a draw anymore ya know?!
I fired my therapist TherapeuticRex. He kepts stealing my pb&j sandwiches. Coincidentally he diagnosed me with split personality disorders apparrently I have a third persona which is the debasing of womendry I labeled him ViciousRex. Here's a conversation we carried the other day.
UbikRex: I'm remembering why i'm the only imsomniac of these specific halls.
TherapeuticRex: Remember when we use to chat in here
UbikRex: Damnit you're fired! Stay fired already, i'm out of pb&j sandwich fixings!!!
TherapeuticRex: Its okay I brought my own....Hmmm. How does that make you feel?
UbikRex: Son of a BITCH!
ViciousRex: YOU BOTH SHUT THE FUCK UP I'M TRYING TO EAT THIS DELICIOUS
MUFFIN I MADE FROM YOUR HAPPY BAKE OVEN!
TherapeuticRex: That wasn't here befo...
UbikRex: ARGH! How the hell did you find that!!?
ViciousRex: I WAS VOYEURING RALPAPOTAMUSXXX WHEN I CAUGHT HIM WATCHING YOU AS I WATCHED HIM WATCHING YOU MAKE THEM DELICIOUS COOKIES IN THE HIDDEN ATTIC PARLOR ROOM!
TherapeuticRex: You said that you gave up on tha...
UbikRex: You two are the shittiest emerging split personalities I have ever had to put up with!
TherapeuticRex: When did you begin to realize that?
UbikRex: .....
Oh, I'm very happy-go-lucky when I actually get off my ass and do something, but have you seen the NY times top-sellers list recently? Not many of those authors are NOT jaded. Being happy isn't cool anymore. You should know that, especially since you're familiar with MySpace.

Much better. Here's a fun emoticon for your next episode.

Meaning you're still computer illiterate?
Where in PA are you located? By the way, just because you're typing instead of using a pen to write doesn't mean you can't use correct grammer. Just a thought.

Too lazy to find the quote so I'm not going to actually quote it, but it's good to know that I'm not the only one who finds Pretty in Pink really dull.

hey there skidmark !
I knew that was coming.
Brown suits you. In fact, is that a brown beanie you're wearing in your avatar? I don't think even I could pull that off. Nice job, Mr. Brown.
