Hello everyone :)

Never really felt the need to join this organisation, but the past few weeks of ace-phobia have made me realise we have a lot of work to do!

I'm an aromantic asexual and have known this since before I even knew either of these two terms existed; only when someone called me asexual as a joke in biology, at age 15/16, did we look it up and realise it was a real thing! I'd never understood all this obsession with inserting body parts into other people, and I still don't. To me the most important things in life are cars, dinosaurs and of course, chocolate ;)

I'm a trainee mechanic and obsessed with cars; I love everything about them, but especially the modified car scene. Imprezas are my favourites, but at this current time I'm owned by a modified Citroen Saxo called Clutch, and have a modified BMW 316 called Blitz lined up too <3 There are very few places I can be open about my cars being my family, and I hope here it would at least be accepted.

As well as vehicles I love nature, animals, biology and palaeontology. I particularly love canines and dinosaurs, especially dromaeosaurs, and magpies and crows are probably my favourite living animals. I have a Border Collie/German Shepherd/Rottweiler cross called Sasha who's about 10 1/2 years old now; she's scruffy, arthritic, has lost a tooth and is full of fatty lumps, but she's happy so I'm happy <3

I enjoy driving, messing about with cars, wandering, inventing stuff, doodling, writing and learning tonnes of information I'll never need to know... and eating chocolate. Did I mention I like chocolate?

I look forward to meeting you all, hopefully I can meet some fellow nerds here! :D

@deltaX; Thank you! It's already helping, I've learnt I'm not the only one who has trouble with understanding euphemisms xD

@PhoenixKiran; I'll have all the cakes, thank you! :D

I have always been fascinated by cars, in fact I "sold" my last pacifier for a yellow bus when I was 3 years old :)

And to your question; Since about 5 years old I have been a Ferrari fan, and my absolute favourite car is a 1966 Ferrari 250 LM - I just love the design, it is so beautiful.

Welcome! :cake: Sorry to hear that you've been dealing with acephobia over the past few weeks. :( You have a lot of cool interests, and it's easy to find others who share those interests. I also love to learn tones of information that I don't need to know. I know a lot of people who are also passionate about modified cars, and have them!

That's an unusual one, and not one I know much about (not a Ferrari person) unfortunately! Vintage cars are awesome though ;)

Thank you! I look forward to finding fellow ace-tuners; a lot of modified culture is sexualised unfortunately (nearly naked women sprawled on bonnets, like what are you doing?) and I'm just interested in the cars themselves!
