It's always a pain establishing a repertoire on a new board. It's painstaking trying to migrate the identity you hold or have established elsewhere. But you seem to have a nice community here -- it seems worthwhile to try.

Hopefully this is the beginning of a new relationship.

Glancing at some other threads, I guess you want a few vital stats. I'm twenty two, male, and have a BA in economic study. I write comedy, generally. My profile was pestering me about which Muppet was my favorite -- I can't be the only Sesame Street kid here can I?

In college my friends would call me Hemmingway whenever I got drunk because I would either get into a fight, fall in love with a girl, or seem like I was going to blow my head off with a shotgun, and because I wrote a good deal.

Welcome. I have a BA in Economics, too. At the current time, though, I have no intention of doing anything with it.

Jim Riley · Apr 7, 2013

Welcome to AW.

I also write comedy. It isn't meant to be comedy when I write it, but people laugh at it when I'm done. Does that qualify for comedy?

Again, welcome
Jim
