Does he fucking capitalize?

i hope not. then you big babies have more people to annoy you.
so now we have fans of Manchester United, Liverpool AND Arsenal around here. good thing at least ONE of them wins things.
I do, yes.
that was me!
Arsenal win the hearts and minds of millions concerned for the beauty of football. United and Chelsea win trophies. And large ammounts of kit sales in Asia.
i never mentioned Chelsea. no one supports those rent boys. Arsenal sells their fair share of those kits, as well.
Oh, right. I always assume the worst when reading three Premier League teams (Spurs might be worse though). We do, but, erhh, we are financially insolvent. So I prefer not to speak of profits.
it will be good to have another football fan around. maybe you can convince some of these other dregs to embrace the beautiful game. and you should join my fantasy league this summer!
Absolutely! Happy to be a part. Its a bit like a daily crusade, you know, living in America and following the game. Also, convenient since I get to wear my kit and not look like a chav, but rather an enlightened European.
Your jargon bores me.
Your beard bores me.
Wait, you mean anyone can just willy nilly add people now? I thought John was the only benevolent overlord who had that power?
he did add him. he told me to introduce him.
all of us should probably fill this thing out, too. i want to know useless trivia about you all. most of us were here before the required “survey”.
Yeah, I back Mandy’s idea heartily. At the very least maybe more extensive profiles since there are numerous people here with the same names.
Okay how about this… let’s start a post where each of us can choose one question to add to the survey. Then, once we agree to there being enough questions, we answer them all?
Welcome Greg! I’ve gotta pick your brain about Columbia, I just sat down the the dean of the MA program yesterday and am considering one of their programs to ward off having to look for a job in a failing industry.
oh and uhhh.. Arsenal are shite.
Hey steve, yeah I’ll be in NYC in a month so plenty of time to talk. We’ll have a proper chat about Columbia and the error of your ways in regards to football. By the way, you know anyone who needs a roomate at 1000 a week or less?
Happy to be here as well.
Greg, can the someone be a girl? Because I do know someone who is looking for a roommate.
uh yeah johnathan, who is someone? and where are the looking to/living at this point?
Greg, I live in Delran. Hometown represent, yo.
Also: Nice taste in books.

My pal Nick, he has a fiance named Victoria, she has a best friend named Stacy. Stacy is the person looking for a roommate. Her place is right at the 23rd St. PATH station. If you would like me to gather details, let me know.
And it’s JONathan, you bloke.
