What's the deal with your nickname? How did you get it? If your nickname is self-explanatory, then tell everyone when you first started using the internet, and what was the first thing that made you say "wow, this isn't just a place for freaks after all?" Was it a website? Was it an email from a long-lost friend? Go on, spill it.

"Multicellular" and "exothermic" are big, fancy words to describe what we all are. (Although now I think my nickname is too clunky.)

I discovered MeFi by way of the catscan link on memepool. I have lurked on MeFi just about every day since, but I didn't get around to becoming a member until just before the 10th anniversary.

I just want to say that I think MeFites are about the most intelligent, eclectic group I've ever had the honour to be a part of. I'm proud of you all. It's a privilege to be here.

I hate to beg, but I just changed jobs, and the first paycheque hasn't shown up yet. If anyone lends me bus fare, I'll pay it back within a week.
