Hi everyone
My name is Walter, I've been reading your posts for about a year now and today I thought I'd join in the fun.
So just a little about myself.
I'm of a certain age, un-PC, highly self motivated, sexist, homophobic, misogynistic, misanthropic, with atheistic tendencies.
I shall try to incorporate as many of these virtues into each of my posts, however if I fail to do so, please don't  hesitate to inform me. I wont be offended.
So, I hope we can all have fun together and I look forward to meeting you all,

Walter

Well done - that's a lot of virtues.
I identify as a Sword because I have abstract social constructs e.g. honour and patriotism. My preferred pronouns are "kill/ maim/ dismember"

Quite handy with weapons - available for hire to defeat money laundering crooks around the world.

What's a "true opinion?" as opposed to one arrived at through social conditioning and environment? Have scientists found our "true opinions" in part of our DNA?

Seconded!

Not to worry. NS also left the key to the cupboard where the single malt's kept on his desk.

It's ok, I brought the contents with me.

11.25's probably a little on the early side though...

Given my visual impairment, who cares where the sun is?
