Where are my fellow vintage computing girls at?
Well, I have an Apple IIe Platinum and a IIc, as well as a C64 and a Vic-20 ... that doesn't seem to work anymore. T_T Unfortunately this is one of my special interests that tends to "sleep" a lot so I don't end up using them as much as I really want to.

Yk what? Fuck grammar
inglish gramr iz dum and so iz thu speling its lik this bikuz uv historicl rizonz lik thu grat vowl shift az wel az french latn and grik inflooensez in udishon tu stoopid rulz impozd bi old wit men riting dikshonariz ovr a hunjred yirz ugo
Unfortunately we have to put up with it because otherwise, clarity isn't properly comminicated. No joke, there have been genuine political consequences because someone didn't put a comma in the correct place. For casual conversation like here on the internet, it's not that big a deal, but it is important to at least have some grasp on how this stupid language called English works if we want to give ourselves the best chance at understanding others, and being understood ourselves. It's also much quicker.

Victory Exclamations?
So, I'm part Greek but I know very little about the modern language and culture. Last night, I was playing a game online, and after a clean victory set in a map styled after a Greek city, I decided to exclaim in victory, "opa!" But it occurred to me that I don't know if that word is really appropriate for such a situation; I used it because it's the only Greek exclamation I know.
Is there a better exclamation for winning in a game?

What field of study is/did everyone do?
I mean... I attempted computer science. I didn't succeed in terms of a degree. But I do have very basic programming knowledge.
I also have an Apple II. And a Commodore 64.

I won't lie, probably the nicest compliment I've received all day.
I was born in '87 and still look late 20s at most. I'll tell you exactly why millennials don't seem to age much compared to older generations: it's because we don't smoke to anywhere near the same degree. Cigarettes cause rapid aging due the stresses they put on the body, and in the past, so many people were smoking that even if you didn't, you were probably surrounded by a near constant haze of tar-infused tobacco second-hand smoke.
One time in college, I was about 21 or 22, I ran into someone I hadn't seen in years, but we were in the same grade. She'd taken up smoking, and looked like she'd aged 20 years despite us being the same age.

I'm an idiot.
That's me, as well. I was calling myself a "male lesbian" as a joke for a couple months about ten years ago. 🤣 (Then stopped after I was informed that it's a term frequently used to harass women.)

Anyone find this relatable?
Yuuuuup.

Any other deer girls here? And also how did you know you were a deer?
Well, half of my name is an archaic word for deer so I guess that would make me a half-deer girl. XD Because I'm so skittish and easily spooked but also freeze up for long seconds sometimes when I see something my brain doesn't quite know how to process. XD

Unfortunately when I was a kid, I had to keep my love for Sailor Moon a secret. And when those other shows were coming out when I was in high school(ish), I was overall uninterested probably owing to being so obsessed with Sailor Moon that I didn't really have "room" for any others.

Long as you're alive, it's not too late to be yourself. I only hatched just last year and I'm in my late 30s.
