A new villager has arrived?
« on: July 20, 2011, 06:41:42 PM »
So. Um. I found this place while browsing The Vault for outside references in the Fallout games. When the reference to the Unwashed Village came to life in Fallout 2 - way back in 1998 - I was eleven years old. Thirteen years later, I am addicted to said old series, as well as the new games, and am legally old enough to play them.

So I guess an about me. Twenty four years old. Graduated from college and looking for a career with my B.A. in Communications. Gaming addict, I'm not sure if I'm ashamed to admit. Currently totally enamored with New Vegas. And, well, hoping to see what makes this village tick!

Well, then don't be looking in the Vestibule.

Hmmmm...I'm engaged...does that count? Or is that the so-called "fate worse than death"?

Only if it's to the wrong person.
All right, I’ve been thinking, when life gives you lemons, don’t make lemonade! Make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don’t want your damn lemons! What am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life’s manager! Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons! Do you know who I am? I’m the man whose gonna burn your house down – with the lemons! I'm gonna get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!

I just finally got around to finishing New Vegas.  The first time my game bugged out near the end and it drove me insane with rage.  I went and lived in the congo for a few weeks.  It was cool.  Lotta mosquitoes though.

Man, you're making me feel crazy old.  I'm trying to remember how I ended up here; I met Rosh on interplay's FO2 boards and he directed me here.  I think... I was in eighth grade?  Blue was already around, I'm not sure anybody else was.

I'm freaking out
Nowhere near my place and I
Know that they've seen me now

You're thinking of the Cretaceous

Welcome to the village. We sleep a lot more than we used to.

Welcome aboard, it is nice to see a new face 'round these parts, especially since "the incident".
