WOW! This is a nice forum you got there. I've visited this website for years, but never participated in this forum. I guess now's the time, right? :)
Allow me to introduce myself: I'm Eric B., but i'm also known as Shnoogums. You can either call me Eric or Shnoogums. It won't matter.
I come from Canada, from the city of Repentigny, in the province of Quebec, so i'm a french quebecer canadian for those wondering if i'm a french guy. I'm also bilingual (i speak french and english), but sometimes, there a some things in english that i may not understand, so you'll have to bear with me when i reply in the forums or when i post a new topic of my own. I'm also a member of other forums too, but since i'm new, i'll leave those out for now. If you want to know though, just PM me and i'll gladly tell you which other forums i'm a part of.
Anyway, about me now: I was born with a neurodevelopmental disorder, known as Autism. Many of you would probably not understand my case, so check one of Wikipedia's articles about Autism at
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autism and you'll understand everything about my case. Fortunately, i'm only a semi-autist, so i'm still normal like all of you and i still can enjoy life, like you all do.
I have a job that i've been doing for 12 years now and while i don't have a lot of friends in real life, i hope i can be friends with all of you here at the Fungi Forums (nice name for a forum by the way, i love it).
I love playing video games and have been playing them since 1983, so i'm pretty experienced at that. My favorite video game franchises are Mario (one of the reasons for me being here), Donkey Kong, Mega Man, Castlevania and Street Fighter. I also enjoy watching wrestling (WWE, and recently since its rebirth, ECW) and have been watching it for almost 20 years now.
My qualities are that i'm very sociable with others, i'm reliable, as well as punctual (i'm always on time at work). My defaults are that i'm easy to anger (sometimes), getting worked up for no reason and i can sometimes be easy to provoke. Let's hope that won't happen here, because i want to enjoy this forum, like i enjoy other forums as well. No need to worry though, i'm a nice guy, so things will be cool between all of us.
I also love to draw, but haven't done that for a long time now. Maybe my drawing tastes will come back someday. Who knows?
Well, that's the 4-1-1 about me. I hope we can have fun together and i hope to enjoy my stay here with all of you. Thank you!
