Getting to know you all a little better

[Whateverist]

Doing the marriage thingy in December so at the moment I am busy co-ordinating flights (for the East Coasters of the family) sewing my dress for the event and generally running around like a meshugenah.

Congrats!

I am retired and spend most of my time being PA to both Zen and my son (Asperger's Syndrome). In fact my whole day revolves around trouble shooting and taking calls from them both.

Personal Assistant? That Zen is one lucky guy. You beat me to retirement. Are you exploring a second career with garden design? (I'm thinking about it.)

I prefer white underwear (hold on the lace),

You and Elvis both. Of course he liked watching young women running around in them. I assume you like being watched?

I'm newly obsessed with Doctor Who. This is highly relevant fact. British boyfriend + Discovery of love for Doctor Who = Best. Year. Ever.

Big moment here!

Which Doctor is it?!

[Shell B]

Well, I've caught up with all the new series. My favorite Doctor is Tennant.

Good answer.

If you said the new episodes with Matt Smith were anything close to as good as the David Tennant ones we'd have been having words!

Just to clarify I have nothing against Matt Smith's Doctor. They switched head-writers around the same time they switched Doctors and I despise the new head-writer.

Have you seen any Torchwood?

I like Matt Smith but I definitely preferred David Tennant. I didn't know they had switched the head writer but it explains a lot.

[Shell B]

Yep, nearly all of it. <3

[Hughsie]

I love Torchwood. I think since series 3 of Torchwood it's been way better than Doctor Who.

[Tiberius]

I'm 24, have two degrees, and work as a penetration tester for a security company in London. I write a blog about information security, and I was recently asked by the Microsoft Technet site to write short opinions on various computer security topics. I'm dating the most beautiful girl in the world and I'm going to visit her for 2 weeks at the end of October.

4 years ago I helped create atheistforums.org with a load of members who were effectively abandoned on our old site atheistforum.com (the owner sold the site without telling anyone). Now we are one of the largest atheist forums on the web, and often the top search result for "atheist forums". We get attacked around 500 times a day on average though.

I'm currently working on a few personal security-related projects, including one to find as many webcams as possible on the Internet.

Oh, and weighing in on the general "Steven Moffat is a cunt" vibe I'm getting, I'd remind people that he created the Weeping Angels, which are hands down the best new Doctor Who enemy since the Daleks.

[Something completely different]

On a more serious note. I realy do like turtles, probably because I had one as a pet as a child.
Well I`m german, I had a catholic mum and anglican dad and turned out atheist. Although my dad was british, I consider my english to be horrible since I hardly ever used that language in my daily routine for years.
Ik spreke ook en ietsje neerlandeis. (I also speak a bit dutch)
Culturaly I use to be a metalhead, but today my taste of music is rather diverse. I read a damn lot but mostly german, although I have read Faulkner, Steinbeck and James Joyce.
I love russian culture, especialy russian classical music, Shostakovich, Prokovjev and on... ,generaly eastern europe is one of the more fascenating places to be in the ast 10 years, since the economic groath of Poland and the Tschek republic has started, everything there is being rebuilt, everything is moving and it is a exciting thing to whitness, wich is why I am there so oftern.
I have a very big interest in biology and find myself reading a lot of books on that subject, wich I will probably go to study.
Politicaly I dont see myself in any kind of camp. I use to be a realy radical marxist but today consider myself a centrist.
Well, I get agressive when confronted with conspiracy theorists, religious people or any other kind of person who throws around factless assumtions and demands these to be recognised as facts.
This is what comes to mind in 5 minutes when I ask myself who I am.

[Annik]

I am a first year college student studying graphic design with emphasis on typography and applied design. I am in an awkward position of hating to draw things (which is 80% of my work) but not being bad at it. I am near-encyclopedic on all things Pokémon. I live in a beautiful part of South Africa. English is my second language (of three). My favourite film director is Sofia Coppola. Favourite band is The Radio Dept.

And welcome Hughsie! Perhaps I'll think of some more things later.

Those are my areas of interest as well. Print or web?

I rarely draw anything for my design besides sketching.
