Been here a while, guess I should say hi.

So.. How's it goin' ATS?

I've been coming to ATS for ...well.. I'm not sure... since around 2007, I think, and finally joined this last summer.
I don't usually have much to contribute, so, chances are, you won't see much of me... but I'm always here.

Haha.. looking back, I found my way onto ATS because I heard some of my old Navy buddies talking about FEMA camps, and, being as naive as I was, I got all in a tizzy. (yes, I use words like tizzy) Thanks to some level headed folks here at ATS, and a few years to age, I calmed down. Needless to say, I don't get worked up over hearsay any longer.

I, like anybody else, have strong opinions about things, and I have my own ideas. I try not to voice my opinion on threads when my opinion matches the... common consensus? (Not sure if that's what I mean, but I'm feeling kinda lazy at the moment). I know it bothers me when I see 20 people in a row say, essentially, the same thing.

Well, I better cut it here before this becomes a rant.

You guys can call me Generator, or Sam.. idc

Peace

Dear Generator85,

Howdy. Even if you agree with the consensus, it is okay to chirp in and let the OP know that you agree. Every post does not have to be brilliant and I am sure that you have own opinions. How bout this, if I post a thread and everyone disagrees with me, chime in and tell me you disagree with my too, all voices matter. Peace.

Welcome to the madhouse we call home. Refreshments are on the veranda the floor show starts at six. Tonight after the show we will be having our usual cigars and brandy in the Library. Oh, do be a sport and attend. Remember where you've parked.

Please keep all arms, limbs and vital organs in the tram while we are moving. On the right you'll notice the tyrannosaur paddock. On the Left we have refreshments and condiments. The souvenir shop closes promptly at 6 pm. The wet T-Shirt contest starts shortly there after.


Shhh...

The show is about to start.

I suppose your point is valid, but, to be honest, I'll probably continue my efforts to minimize redundancy.
Cheers

Hello and welcome to moving over to the verbiage side of ATS. (and do I ever mean verbiage!)
I am looking forward to some of those strong opinions of yours.
Enjoy !
