This is the introduction thread for SheepishPatio. The goal of this thread is to be a bit more structured than the prior one. Now that the site has been liv...

What do you spend most of your time doing?

I spend a lot of time playing games with some friends from way back, some tabletop stuff as well as TF2 usually. In addition to that I watch a lot of vtubers as well as anime. I also enjoy manga because I can read it at work easily. My favorite offline activity has got to be cooking!

Summarise yourself in 1-2 short sentences.

An older weaboo getting older.

What's your ultimate guilty pleasure?

I like to get high and consume extraordinarily low-brow content, such as high you laugh you lose videos on youtube with certain streamers. Just being able to get stupid for a minute and enjoy some garbage is pretty relaxing.

Eugehi If there are any extroverts or interesting people reading this, how 2 stop being boring?

I wouldn't consider myself a really interesting person, but i do know a thing or two about how to be more... Entertaining???

Most people are born without the capacity of coming up with interesting stuff out of mere introspection, so what you have to do if you are basically, like the 95% of the population of this planet, is go out and actually do stuff.
I live in the BAD part of America (I mean the continent) So doing crazy things at night, like going to an abandoned building all by myself and recording the whole thing or doing some graffiti is out of the question.
I have limited options; I can only do meh stuff at the streets when the sun is still up, OR, i can do really crazy things in the comfort of my room at any time. The latter brings me a lot of good ideas.
For example, tweak with my computer and fucking up big time.
That gave me inspiration for a little story and also a song; One that gives a really calm but depressive vibe.

Stuff like that.

If you can go out on your own at night, without the dangers that bad folk bring, then do so and try to have fun in the process.

That's how you get to be a creative and fun person, by having fun yourself WHILE actually doing stuff, not just playing vidya or watching anime.

I am another victim of the hacker known as 4chan
What do you spend most of your time doing, tell us about it! Do you have any specific goals or aspirations related to that activity?
I study Latin, Program Management, and other MISC. I program on Roblox, I read books (mainly romance, and science fiction), I also read and watch manga/anime. Oh I also lift.

An old Heyuri post.

What do you spend most of your time doing, tell us about it! Do you have any specific goals or aspirations related to that activity?
Most of my time is spent reading, playing video games, or browsing the web. Most of the games I play are older. Right now I'm playing Final Fantasy X and Alundra 2; also working at getting better at Star Wars Battlefront 2 (2005) because my friend who I used to be much better than recently completely whooped me in the game. Something I'm working on is getting better at managing my time, specifically using my computer less... it's so easy to get distracted on it. Like right now!

If you had to summarise yourself in 1-2 short sentences, what would you say?
I'm so laid-back to the point that it's detrimental. So many things I leave to sort themselves out on their own, which I know is going to lead to some horrible, catastrophic event in the future.

What's your ultimate guilty pleasure, whether it's a book, TV show, game/series, or website? Don't hold back!
Buying old games on eBay. I love collecting them but I've spent so much money ;_;

RegiVAPOR

Hello! I'm RegiVAPOR. I joined awhile ago, but got distracted by life and forgot to start interacting. I'm not exactly sure how I first found this site, to be honest.

I spend a lot of my time working in a hospital microbiology lab. I mostly set up cultures and run PCRs. When I'm not working, I do a lot of art; making plushies, painting, and scratchboard. I play the theremin, too. I LOVE Minecraft and Pokemon, I'm downright obsessed, actually.

To summarize myself, I'd say I'm like a backrooms goblin that plays theremin and eats snacks.

My guilty pleasures? Creepypasta and junk food.

Hello lads. Another anon from 4chan here. This time /v/.
People have said that back in the days small forums were an amazing thing so this is going to be a new thing for me.

As for myself. I consider myself an introverted shutin that really likes cars.
I am technically a NEET though I do spent lot of time helping my uncle at his place. With the money I get I am putting towards fixing up my car. It is like the only goal in my life atm.
Did studied automotive engineering but decided to choose management specialization as it seemed the most practical option. I hate management.
I use Linux BTW
Cheers.

Hi everybody! It is so comfy seeing an introduction thread. Have not seen a good forum like this in... Too long!

How did you find this site?
Cruising around online looking for information on classical languages. Mainly for information on old Norse from the early medieval, classical Syriac from the time between Jesus and the fall of Rome, and Latin. Found a place other people are referencing here called 4chan in a section called /lit/ (literature), then saw the ad. This place is cozy so I think I will stay by the campfire for a little while.

What do you spend most of your time doing, tell us about it! Do you have any specific goals or aspirations related to that activity?
I am wrapping up a bachelors degree in history because I want to be a teacher despite what everyone says about the kids these days. Getting back in the swing of learning languages as part of the survey of cultures. Sometimes I play Dead by Daylight (I'm pretty good ~~not bragging~~ well kinda). Need MMO recommendations. Is Elder Scrolls Online good?

If you had to summarise yourself in 1-2 short sentences, what would you say?
I would say I am a good fren to folks I meet but like many today it is hard to meet people and be a part of a community.

What's your ultimate guilty pleasure, whether it's a book, TV show, game/series, or website? Don't hold back!
Computers, cars, and guns in that order. But they are all so expensive! Ammo, parts, new CPU/GPU, etc. Things are ridiculous my friends. Also, casual mayhem.

There is always a language learning thread, you might find info there.
Also welcome.

1996FordMondeo I did not. There is a thread currently up. Thanks for mentioning!!

How did you find this site

I saw an ad on a bulgarian rose harvesting forum. I like to visit altchans and adjacent sites, but they're often broken, dead, or otherwise not worth posting in. This had a nice ad, seems competently put together, and the last post is less than a month ago. Seems like a nice place.
Actually I saw the ad half a year ago and came here but didn't make an account. Then I couldn't remember the name for half a year until the new ads jogged my memory.

What do you spend most of your time doing

I play a lot of vidya, read books (nowadays mostly listen to audiobooks really), go hiking, and do whatever I feel like doing at the moment. That's usually a whole lot of nothing, but I have an occasional burst of productive behavior every couple of months.

summarise yourself in 1-2 short sentences

A profoundly lazy creature but hopefully a good person at his core.

What's your ultimate guilty pleasure

I couldn't tell, seems like most things I do are guilty pleasures of some sort.

maho

Hi I'm maho.

I think about 2D girls almost every waking moment of my life. I am a big fan of iDOLM@STER, and some other series I love include Minami-ke, Touhou (mainly games), and Haruhi. I collect more figures, plushes, and other character goods than I have room for.

Other things I like:

Tea
STGs/shmups although I can't play much due to RSI
Bass and guitar although I can't play much due to RSI
Strategy games: Go, poker, mahjong, occasionally others. I will get really into one of them for a few weeks until I get mad or bored and give up, and I have slowly improved over the years using this method
Birds and cats

maho STGs/shmups although I can't play much due to RSI

could you explain these things?
I am not familiar with these terms.
Also what is your opinion on solitaire?

maho

1996FordMondeo
STG (Japanese abbreviation for "shooting game") and shmup (English abbreviation for "shoot 'em up") mean this kind of game:

RSI is repetitive strain injury which is a category that includes things like carpal tunnel syndrome, tennis elbow, etc. I get nerve pain when a play games or type too much.

I play freecell once in awhile to kill time but I don't really like klondike (i.e. classic solitaire) or any other versions with hidden information. Spider solitaire in particular is a total crapshoot that I wouldn't recommend to my worst enemies

Edo

maho YOOOOO DoDonpachi, that's one cool game. I'm more familiar with DaiOuJou (White Label) but the OG is pretty fun too. Also, you like Idolm@ster? That's really cool too!

An ad on an image board actually.

What do you spend most of your time doing, tell us about it! Do you have any specific goals or aspirations related to that activity?
When I'm not studying, I like to write stories. All kind, being fanfictions or whatever I feel like too.

If you had to summarise yourself in 1-2 short sentences, what would you say?
Beside "Modesty is the virtue of the mediocre", I guess I would describe myself as someone who was born after 9/11 and has yet to feel like a proper adult.

What's your ultimate guilty pleasure, whether it's a book, TV show, game/series, or website? Don't hold back!
Writing about things I like, putting stuff I like in my stories, even if I'm not sure anyone but me would read a story about people turning into giant monsters to fight against biological giant robots and a totalitarian state.

Wasting time mostly. I'm coming off a major car wreck, metaphorically speaking, and am still not reintegrated into society. I play video games (fifa and warzone), lift, and chat shit online but on sheepishpatio my goal is to be friendly and civil. I have no aspirations because the gangstalkers took away all my opportunities.
If you had to summarise yourself in 1-2 short sentences, what would you say? A good lad

when I'm bored I doodle in a sketchbook. i have no formal art training but after drawing on school notebooks since primary school i sorta learned through osmosis and now my art skill is passable. otherwise, i like to watch niche youtubers, trawl the internet, and explore my city.

Toy with computers, lotsa gaming. I've self taught myself a lot, and am looking to figure out which path hooks me enough to turn into a career. Video editing, programming, stuff like that.
If you had to summarise yourself in 1-2 short sentences, what would you say?
I'll try to find out your hyperfixation, ask a really good question about it, and then therapeutically listen to you for 30 minutes. I tend to be confident, friendly, and value self-improvement/independence greatly.

Lurking 4chan. It's got all the autistic obsession of reddit without any filter. Any site with pre-web3 internet vibes gets me jumping down crazy rabbitholes, which I find endlessly entertaining. I'd love to receive recommendations for sites like that.

"How did you find this site?"
saw an ad on /vg/ and decided I wanted to visit the site.
"If you had to summarise yourself in 1-2 short sentences, what would you say?"
I don't know really. I really wish I had something interesting to say here.
"What's your ultimate guilty pleasure, whether it's a book, TV show, game/series, or website? Don't hold back!"
Probably the showa era of godzilla movies excluding 1954 because people actually like that one.
