It's dot com
Hey there every peoples. My name's Ben, better known around here as It's dot com (you can also call me Dot com if you want). I'm an X17-year-old graphic designer/computer-systems manager from Texas, USA. About my user nameMy first experience with homestarrunner.com was, appropriately, the First Time Here? page. About fifteen seconds into the intro, Homestar utters his classic line: "Oh, right... homestarrunner.net: It's dot com!" From that instant, I was hooked. I knew this site was the place for me. (You may notice on the First Time page that the text appearing on the screen is misspelled "Its dot com" (without the apostrophe). I got it right for my user name and in the image on the right, because everybody knows that if you want it to be possessive, it's just "ITS," but if it's supposed to be a contraction then it's "I-T-apostrophe-S." Scalawag.) What I like to do
I am one of the administrators here. My contributions come in lots of shapes and sizes, but in general I:
If I can help you or if you have a comment or question, leave a note on my talk page. I'd love to hear from you. Favorite quotesSometimes I even work the following quotes (often including the inflection) into everyday conversations.
Pages and things I'm proud of
Interests outside H*R
Reminders to myself
