let's make it more detailed, like what you do and such kind of things..
i'm an English teacher

[MyNameDidntFit]

I've just finished my final year of high school, so at the moment I'm not doing anything other than casual work at the local McDonalds' joint.

[Jason]

I work in the operations room of HM Coastguard.

[CemeteryGates]

Turned 20 just over a month ago, and I live in Mexico City, Mexico.
Some people think all mexicans are named Jesús Rodriguez or Juan Pérez, but the name's Daniel Shepard. ;)

I'm a musician, composer and photographer. To fund my artistic projects that'll launch me to international fame and global domination, I occasionally pick up various temporary jobs. These have included masseuse, casino croupier, secretary, bodyguard, english teacher, coach, and more...

[Rob]

My name is Rob (gasp!), i'm 25 and I live in California. In the past I worked for the U.S. AirForce and after that I have been focusing on my bachelors degree from college. I'm about to be a father of a baby boy in January. The next step in life can't get here soon enough! :-)

[Jason]

masseuse, casino croupier, secretary, bodyguard, english teacher, coach

That list reads like the cast list of the strangest porno ever. :p

[Rob]

International man of mystery?

Congarats for the baby boy Rob :)

Yey, a fellow English teacher.. Welcome Daniel! ;)

[Iggy]

I may be wrong, but I think a "masseuse" is a female, and a "masseur" is a male.

Are you....special...in some way??? :):)

First name: Dan (yes, another one)

[Jason]

I'm going to have to rename this site to dan-gamers.com at this rate... :lol:

[Astonix]

A bit of a late reply but ah well..

15/Male/Wales

Still in school at the moment, soon shall be taking my GCSEs -.-'

[CemeteryGates]

Haha, I really don't know, but because it appears to be French in origin, you're probably right.
Masseur, then. :p

27 / Male / USA

Unemployed Software QA Specialist and father of 4.5 month old twin boys born August '09.

[Rob]

That's a lot of diapers. Good luck.

[Helgen]

What's up everyone. I'm Helgen, 26 from NYC living in Sasebo, Japan.

[Jason]

Wow, that's quite a way to move - what took you there? Work, play, wife? :p

[Helgen]

I like how you summed up all 3 reasons why I moved here, haha!

I am having a child due sometime either this week or the next! I also came to do some photography/freelance/hobbies and so forth. Wife is a painter and looking to meet contacts and you know, the entertainment/art world type of stuff...

Hardcore gamer for life though, you can imagine how I'm getting it in on the games, dude, heh!

[Jason]

Hehe, well it's usually at least one of the three. The only one I left out was Federal Fugitive. :p

Yeah, I can imagine you're doing well for the games... as long as you don't have a 360. :p

[Helgen]

I don't own any next gen yet, but I'm thinking of getting a PS3, and definitely saving for a new PC so I can play whatever is already out on the 360 but for PC, since they're always better on PC (so long as they don't do that annoying shit where they put the 360 buttons ON THE PC VERSION.) Also want to get into SFIV, I bought the arcade stick, now just waiting for the system or the PC. Child first, then game... It's a little hard to say that LOL just kidding!

[Jason]

That's ok... just you wait until they start taking an interest in the TV... then you'll know all about a battle for the television. You think it's bad with the missus... :P

[Helgen]

Well my wife is kind of an old style Japanese woman who wouldn't really argue with me over the television, but I've had women like that, and boy would I have loved to sock them one!

[Rob]

You have a few years before you have to fight over the TV right? I don't plan on plopping my son down in front of one for as long as I can hold out. (also expecting over the next few weeks)

[Knighto]

Welcome, Helgen! I think it's really cool how MG has people from all around the world.. as far as I know the only continent missing here is Africa :)

[Jason]

We do have a member from Nigeria, but he's never posted. :)

[Knighto]

So you managed to make this a world-wide thing, Jason. Great job!
I reckon by next year mature-gamers.com will be really something.

[Jason]

Here's hoping! There's plenty of work ahead, but you guys have given me an amazing start to build from, and from here the sky's the limit. :)

[Betty]

Hi, my name is emma and I hate all of you -_-

Awesome. I was wondering what the origin of your name was. I was actually thinking more Indian, because I know 'Cheema' is an Indian name, so figured it was an alternative spelling. Shows how good my guessing is. :p

[Swift]

buying things online? Not that i know of why? Are there places that have race issues?

[MyNameDidntFit]

I'd imagine it was a jab at the 'Nigerian scammer' stereotype ;)

[Kozahk]

Urgh, might as well put up a real one.

I pass within a handful of kilometers from there whenever I venture up to the city (along Albany Hwy from... well... Albany).

[Archangel]

You can totally be BFFs now.

[MyNameDidntFit]

Not really a fan of long-distance relationships, I'm afraid...

[Swift]

lol i had a mistake like that once.

[Kozahk]

+ Learn to have less ambiguous username, real name and avatar. I thought this was a girl all along.

[happysister]

no, Kon, he's a guy, lol. usually he uses some kind of Meta Knight or Sonic avie.

[MyNameDidntFit]

+ Learn to have less ambiguous username, real name and avatar. I thought this was a girl all along.

Well, damn, me too.

[Betty]

I really don't think anything can help the name situation though.

People are still convinced that I'm a guy, despite the whole "betty" being a girls name... people are stupid.

[MyNameDidntFit]

Possibly it's the constant announcements relating to your penis that make them think that?

[Betty]

It could be. But what else am I supposed to say? All these idiot men probably dont know the female anatomy well enough (or at all) to understand the meaning "suck my clit"... So ive grown into the habit of saying smd. loverly, isnt it?
