Welcome! And brace yourself for your introduction to general forum craziness. 
I'm Shanalir. I run the resident Sense of Humour Lost & Found, and Locker Room. It's reccomended that you bring your sense of humour with you when you visit the forums, as it will probably come in handy. If you forget it, check the Lost & Found, as we usually have a few loaners available. Be careful of which loaner you check out, though. Some of them are a little warped.  The Locker Room is available for temporary storage of your sense of humour in the event you don't want it around for the moment. We're thinking about adding sections for your Sense of Drama, Sense of Angst, and Sense of Confusion. but that will be a little while in the future as we just finished the Locker Room.
That's my little taste of the madness yet to come.
Welcome again, and please enjoy your stay.

Oh, Honey! I'm glad you've found OSA. We love readers, reviewers, and raters almost as much as writers around here, but Betas! Betas are liable to get torn to pieces in our enthusiasm for those selfless martyrs. But I gotta let you know, there's a typo in the "About Me" section of your brand spankin' new blog   .
Welcome to OSA.

Well, that's... optimal advice. I usually keep my sense of humour around here somewhere *pats head. pats armpits. pats pants pocket* Dang! *pulls Sense of Humour out of hole in head* Gotcha! *runs of laughing maniacally*

There are plenty of lockers available if you want someplace reliable to store it.

A place for everything but your sense ofcolor coordination. Shan needs a Martha Stewart intervention. Quick Shan, repeat after me.
Hello, my name is Shan and I wear polka dots with plaid.        and remember, Garanimals are my friend
There, we've left her hopelessly addicted to coffee cigarettes speed crack chronic and dancing bananas, but she'll never shop without a color wheel again. C'mon Shan,  grab your roofie laced binky and lets go ravin'.
Oh, and welcome to OSA person whose name I can't remember after all this ranting,  InyerLindir? What part of the chicken is that? Have fun, look out for the strange members, I'm sure they're right behind me.
Oh, Alassante seems to have misplaced the mojo chip from her mother board so please watch your step.
Oh, one more thing, with Nancy, ya gotta do , what I, do. Put, in' so; much surplus" punctuation# in your? posts} she just + gives up and burst's' into* flames...  Nancy is really a spell bot produced by the friendly folks of ohsoassing electronics, whose motto is..."I didn't need a computer that actually works, just light that son of a bitch up and throw it at my head!"

You could make it so I have nothing to do, nothing to complain about, but NOOOOO! Never happens

I am not "subtle shades of green impaired."  I'm fine with green. It's all those other colors I have problems with.

Hello, my name is Shan and I wear polka dots with plaid. (I don't actually. I wear stripes and tie-dye with plaid - both at the same time. )
Oh, and Garanimals are my friend.  (BTW, what are Garanimals? And why a Martha Stewart invention? Can't I have Clint and Stacy from the Fashion channel's "What Not to Wear"? Huh? Purtie pleeeease???  )

Garanimals was a clothing gimic for kids (in the early 70's? I know I was a kid when they came out but too old to wear them) where, if you matched up the animal on the label, the tops and bottoms went together. As if that was really going to encourage the stubborn little no-neck monsters to dress themselves ...

They probably made it fun to see what kinds of abominations they could create from the two halves of different animals. I know that's what I would have done. Thanks for the info. As a child of the 80's and 90's, that's a little before my time. Not my older sisters' though. Hmmmmmm. Wonder why they told me about polyester, disco and bell bottoms, but never Garanimals?
