Glad to have joined this website. I'm sure I'll be needing help with physics soon.
 
Physics news on Phys.org
The Lounge. :biggrin:
 
All that I have a chance to understand.
 
I like the snack bar and the extreme dominoes play area.

Oh wait, non-staff don't have access to those areas...

I like the smokey backroom where we have our poker nights. After a few drinks, Evo can swear like a drunken sailor!

Zz.

I think this community is the most actively insightful and helping part of the internet. Everyone is friendly and every problem I asked so far was solved by the help from others.

I just like browsing through the threads. Not just for the technical facts. I find there are many insightful tidbits of information in them, the kind of stuff that may be common sense to professionals and experts, but make me stop and think, "Hmm, I never thought of it that way..".

I must say I appreciate the efforts of the mentors and advisers to help us students and laypeople. I would recommend this site to anybody.

I don't know why, but I read that as "drunken chicken" the first time.

@Greg Bernhardt Have you considered implementing any forum-wide automatic word substitutions, a la xkcd:Substitutions? It's good for a laugh whenever pomeranians start typing like drunken sailors.

Best part I like is when you look at the PF page,

Up at bit, no a bit more , to the right, a bit to the left.
Now scratch that area.
Oh. that feels better.
Free on-demand back scratching service.
