Introducing myself

[DAdam]

Hello!  Much like @Stevorso, I'm finally making an account here so I can post over on the Boskone event thread.  But first I wanted to thank the community here for all the work they do on the Coppermind, the Interview Database, or just hanging out here discussing theories.  I started lurking over on Tor's Stormlight reread a few years ago, which led me to finding these great resources for looking up all things Brandon.  Who knows, maybe now that I made an account here I'll actually find the time to participate every once in a while.

Oh, and most importantly, I have looked around here enough to know that I should refuse all offers of cookies.  No matter how tempting they may be...

Welcome! I'd give you the obligatory warning about the cookies, but you seem to not need it. Have the complimentary upvote that comes with the warning.

Here's another upvote! This rather Drab thread needs to be Endowed with a little Ambition, don't you think? If cookies can't Ruin us now, then the true thing we need to Preserve ourselves from is puns!

[DAdam]

Thanks for the upvotes!  And the puns too I guess... although normally I try to cultivate at least a sliver of autonomy when odious puns dominate the conversation, I will honor your devotion to the wordplay.

Ignore each and every punson who feels the need to puncil in every pun they can puncover. No punishment is great enough for the reckless punters who punverwhelm these puntroduction threads with punnery. It's punbelievable.

Welcome! It gets better from here

Man, it used to be we'd just say, "hello! Welcome to site! Don't accept the cookies!", then it was, "avoid the cookies! They'll Ruin your life!", but now it all this multi-Shard-welcome-warning-puns and stuff. Ah, when things were simple... 

Anyway, welcome to the site @DAdam! Have an upvote from me too.

I wasn't around in the days when things were simple, but boy do I miss them.

Hey, puns are the best. You should cultivate your love for puns. At the very least, learn to live in Harmony with us puncasters

Hello, and welcome to the shard!
Sorry I'm a little late, I was at school.

Oh, I know. I've done a few with other Shards myself, it's just not something I'm Devoted to, you know?  I don't have much Ambition when it comes to puns.

Good to know!  I pretty much got all my punning out of my system in my earlier post, so you don't have to worry about me contributing for a while.  Now I'm just wondering if everyone's continuing with it to punish... I mean, treat me harshly for derailing the traditional cookie thing. 

Thanks all for the welcomes and upvotes!

I will believe that all this bad punnery deserves a reckpunning. In Honor of this Ambitious Devotion towards Odious Puns, I'll cultivate your sense of Preservation of taste by Ruining all future cookies for you with the Dominion of my cookies, Endowing you with Autonomy from the desire of other cookies forever. All that will be left will be your desire to just survive.
