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.
Olympic-grade lurker.
I'm usually too lazy to craft an argument I'm willing to stand behind.
Relatively light footprint. Generally contribute to Education or History threads. Too many adverbs.
Reading The Structure of Scientific Revolutions and The History of Sexuality changed my life.
