I was born in this country, because my parents live here, because their parents brought them here. That is also why I'm in this room and typing on this keyboard at this very moment, because a chain of unrelated events all stacked upon one another and resulted in my being here at this very moment in time.

Quite exciting, really.

Escapist: I came here for Unforgotten realms, I stayed because of the forums. I'm still here because of groups.

Room: It's late, I'll probably be going to bed soon. Plus, all the stuff I spend my time with is in here.

Country: I was born here and I'm too young to move away, doubt I will though, it's a pretty good place.

Escapist: Used to be Zero Punctuation, Doomsday arcade and Unskippable, but these days just the latter and the forums to read over
Room: Because this is the computer room, even though technically its my dads and contains all his stuff, and I spend 99% of my time here rather than my actual room
Country: Born here, or should I say, stuck here due to lack of funds and fearful of travelling around the world solo

Escapist: I don't know, I just find it easy to get my thoughts down here and there's a variety of people here. And I like that I get notified every time someone replies to me, something that is lacking on so many other forums. I don't have time to go back through my posts and see if people replies.

Room: I'm in my basement. My computer, Xbox, TV, musical instruments, and pretty much every other form of indoor entertainment and activity is down here. It's sort of my lair, I have my privacy here, people don't bother me, I can play loud music and the sound doesn't carry that much upstairs. And the router is right next to me, so I can piss off my little brother anytime I want by unplugging the ethernet chord that goes to his room.

Country: I was born here. I don't have the means to go anywhere else, and if I did, I really didn't know where I would go. I have friends, family and my life here, and I guess right now I'm not brave enough to leave it behind in search of something really adventurous and different. I wouldn't mind travelling and living somewhere really interesting, somewhere that could really brighten up my boring suburban life, but I don't know where that place is, and I would miss my friends.

Why am I here? Why are any of us here? I believe it was Descartes who said...

Oh, you didn't want the philosophy angle either.

Ummm...well...basically...for the laughs. I make jokes and humorous witticisms along with informative stuff and general craziness. And, as a result, it is enjoyable to be here and I don't get banned.

Forged long ago and left here. Long have I pondered what I should do. Long, long have I pondered... Now it seems I have an answer....

I am the one known as Ultima. I do not bleed, for I am but strength given form. Feeble creatures of flesh, Your time is nigh.
