or
C) A goodbye.

I guess I should tell you all a little about me:
I live in Germany, I enjoy old surrealist art, I listen to all kinds of music, I enjoy post-modern literature, and various weird shit. I'm finishing a linguistics/philosophy double major in school.

I think he meant his lurker-self is leaving, to be replaced by his posting-self ...



And, hello German guy! What part of .DE? If you live close enough to the left side you can come to our next .NL meetup (which we haven't planned yet, so no rush). And if you don't, take the mitfahrgelegenheit and be there anyway!
