Hello... I am BatManBearPig.
Better known as Jamie... Or Eimmy... Or y'know... you can always call me 'that one crazy batman-obsessed chick.. with the face'.
That might be too long for you. <_< I.. don't know.
I'm an AIPAH dropout. ._.
And... I have a rabbit.
Oh. I was square enough to never learn of this site until tonight. WHY. OH WHY?!
Yeah anyway.

16 yrs old, stuck in Sydney, Australia. This disappoints me greatly.
I have a passion for writing and acting, and currently attend The Australian International Performing Arts High, or AIPAH (I am rather aware that including the Adjective "international" makes the name redundant, Thankyou :| )
I currently work at a local video store.
I've been a fan of the site for about a year, but I've avoided joining the forums until now.

Hi, I'm Graham.

Ironically enough I was leading a sketch troupe slightly before I found LRR. Then I found out there was another guy in canada with the same name and same Awkward obsession (Editing). I feel weird now.

I'm a fanatic of pretty much all forms of art except ironically still images. Paintings and photos and drawings just don't do much for me.

I'm in a band known currently as both "The Fudgey Pop Wankers" and "Atomic Tangerine". I'm the Bassist and lead singer. Taking most of my bass influence from Les Claypool and Victor Wooten.

Music taste ranges from 20's jazz and blues to 90's alt (Not Grunge, that implies Nirvana) to 60's and 70's funk to Modern Jazz. Mostly the Bass and Drum focused stuff, never been much for the guitar.

Also I believe that popular music committed suicide about at the beginning of this decade (I'm looking at you Arctic Monkeys)

Band I'm listening to way too much of right now is Pearl Jam. I take an awkward mental comfort when I listen to them.

I've been in a few live plays, I played Tim Allgood in a production of Noises Off. And a character known as Eugene in a smaller play called "No Horse Town".

Oh and I'm 16.

y halo thar,

I'm Franco, 17, and love delicious cake. Given that its delicious, of course. I'm currently eating small children in Ontario while going to a school as a daytime facade to lead the po-pos on a wild goose chase. Also I like redundancy (and internet memes). Redundancy is redundant, in case you guys didn't know. I may or may not be a recovering /b/tard. I also love cake.
(Didn't notice this thing when I made my other topic, sorry).

Hi.
The name's Joe. I am 26 years old and I live with my wife and son over in sunny Hove, UK. I'm originally from a small town in Indiana. I then moved to an even smaller town in Indiana called Santa Claus.

I like all the videos and am trying to get my wife interested in them. She claims she does not have the verisimilitude to watch a lot of them. She says that about a lot of the things that I do.

I like most kinds of music. However, I really enjoy classic rock. And I too am a fan of cake! I think cake is better if it doesn't have icing/frosting on it. that's just my personal opinion though.

Yeah, sometimes, the icing and frosting makes cake too sweet, but usually its good. It really depends on the kind of cake though, I must say delicious cake is quite ambiguous.

Hi. Hey. Hullo, or hello as is more modern, and technically correct, though I've always enjoyed a good Hullo. Wotcha. Howdie. G'Day. Guten Abend/Tag/Morgen (depending). Hallo. Konnichiwa. Bonjour. Auf Wiedersehen... no wrong way.

Anyway, the point is, I'm here, I'm queer(in the old meaning, and a little bit of the new, but that's neither here nor there), get used to it or ignore me.

Also. English. Don't know if that's relevent to anything, but I may use some colloquialisms at some point that confuse and frighten some people, don't worry about it, they frighten me too.

Sorry if my spell was ambiguous. I meant the subject of cakes which the previous few posters were talking about. But seriously, it should be fine to talk about other stuff inside of a stickied topic, as long as you don't try to change the flow of the ENTIRE thread (that would be thread jacking, everybody knows Canadians don't jack shit, they rochambeau* for it). But yeah, read the box text on my spell next time ;)

Hi, I'm Wartoa, or Andrew, I just found you guys earlier this week through The Escapist and Unskippable, which I have been watching since it came out. I love your work, I went through and watched every video in the archives to pass the time while I played WoW. I really wish I lived closer to Canada now, but im way down south in Alabama :( . I'll have to come visit Victoria in the future.

Anyways keep the hilarity coming!

Hi. I'm Alex. One of those musician/filmmaker/grocery store employee types. I'm from North Carolina... One of those "American" types (I think the only accurate name is "Resident of the United States of America," but who has time for that? Maybe an acronym? Am I a Rotusan?).

I found LRR via Unskippable, via Zero Punctuation, via the last forum community I frequented... Kinda full circle... ish...

I just spent the last few days watching the series from the beginning (or at least as far back as the archives go...) and it has led me to the following realizations:

-Watching nothing but the same thing in every bit of free time makes you look at the world in an odd light... Like when I watched all 78 episodes of Gargoyles in a row and imagined I was walking around with wings...
-I feel like I know the crew, and that's weird. I don't know them. They live in Canada. On the west coast. That's like... the inverse of where I live.
-Kathleen has lost a lot of weight recently. At first I thought it was a good thing, but now I'm worried. You OK, Kathleen?
-Listening to Tom Waits while posting is weird... Actually, listening to any Tom Waits after Heartattack and Vine is weird no matter what you're doing, but yeah...
-LRR is like a Canadian WKUK... They're both internet sketch comedy, except WKUK is a little more low brow and highly inaccurate... OK, WKUK is an American LRR...
-Lists are FUN!
-No they're not
-I should have watched the videos at a slower pace because now I'm expecting at least five videos a day... I'm going to be disappointed...
-Uwe Boll appears smarter than his movies would lead you to believe... Maybe that's why they keep giving him money to make movies...
-I like the flash player with fullscreen the best... They're sticking with that one from now on, right?
-I think I'm done with this list thingy...
-Wait, no I'm not
-OK, now I am.

Edit: OK, I just read Wartoa's post and I just feel like a cover band :(

I guess I still have the list thing... that's something, right?

Ok, so I've commented on videos a bit, but I've decided to actually JOIN this forum, and participate in things other than, well, commenting on videos.

Most people (on the internet) call me Levi, and you guys can too. I like LRR, the internet, video games, anime, Fight Club (Best Movie EVER). I'm a lazy bum who doesn't like to work, so I waste time on the internet while in class. Like now. I'm a high school student living in the GTA, in Ontario, in Canada. I've been watching LRR for a few years now.

I'm artsy in that I wish I had talent, and will often fail at trying to express myself through music, prose, or art. I don't have anything witty enough to epitomize myself as a signature. Maybe one day. One day... Also, if you have Steam, its rather easy to find me on it, as I'm just Levi_theDreamer there. As almost everywhere.

I also want to be a Runner, as you guys are awesome. Next Operation, I WILL try. (I Hope [Oh, I forgot, I like embedding brackets {like this}]).
I can put my hands in my head, and I can laugh it in the face.

Hello.

I'm Mimm. I'm British. I'm feeling a little awkward, all said. I'm also no good at these introductions. Right, let's sum me up in a sentance then...

an 18 year old, British, tap-dancing, wiccan, transvestite ventriloquist with a soft spot for silliness and sarcasm.

AAAAAAaaannnnnnd......... I like chocolate. That's all I can think of right now. So, Hi, I'm here!

Heya,

I found LRR through Desert Bus through Penny Arcade... been just watching since, but decided to join in the phun. I like long walks on the beach, reading, murdering hobos, gaming and triathlons. I'm a software engineer and I've always dreamed of one day writing a stoplight.

So I was going to right my own intro but then I read Gobukillers and found it to be oddly similar to what I was going to say so I hope that no one minds that I'm going to just steal his and edit to meat my needs.

Gobukiller wrote:Hi. I'm Peter. One of those college student types. I'm from Massachusets... One of those "American" types (I think the only accurate name is "Resident of the United States of America," but who has time for that? Maybe an acronym? Am I a Rotusan?).

I found LRR via Unskippable, via Zero Punctuation, via a friend of mine who to my knowledge has no idea that LRR exists



Okay and then it stops being oddly the same as what I was going to say so I will cease with the plagiarism.

Oh and one thing I have to mention, it's really weird listening to you guys because your accent is almost exactly the same as what is around here, but your pronunciation is oddly different. It's like if you took a relatively subtle US accent from the north east introduced some Midwestern terminology, and then used the British pronunciation for stuff but without the accent. It makes sense why, but it's kind of weird.
