Hi everyone, my name is Jonathan and im new to the forums, i am a aspie that was diagnosed when i was young at age 6. i have had a rough life growing up as im now 20 years old, but have no friends or anything. but have made several hobbies while trying to cope with that. i love to repair vintage arcade games from the 80s. i own the following, spy hunter, galaga, galaxian, pacman, bump and jump cocktail, and a neo geo, all games you can look up on KLOV, (killer list of video games), a forum of which i used to be part of, then left due to other reasoning. i also have a hobby that revolves around fireworks, i am part of a forum of guys who shoot fireworks all year long as part of a hobby. im a pyro u might say the least. i hope to kinda move in to this humble forum, and be accepted by everyone soon. thanks for reading this and have a nice day.:)

Hi Jonathan, I am quite new to WP. WP has been great for me. It's good to know that you are not alone and that there's lots of folk who have similar experiences.

It's weird for me to read the 80's games are vintage - seems like only yesterday to me!
