Well, a fellow user mentioned about it so I decided to introduce myself.
I will do shill for the intro because whenever I pretend to be someone else and say good things about me, it strokes my Vy Canis Majoris like ego. So here goes.
"Kaan was born in Antalya/Turkey in 1986. That was the year when the Prime Minister Turgut Ozal decided to trade foreign goods/stuff with other countries. Back then Turkey was a closed case girl, it come out of the closet whenever he was born. Girls always say him that he can convert a lesbian into hetero in few seconds. He just needs to say how many tongue movements he can make per a second and ta ta! Also, it may sound like an anachronism but Sapo from Lesbos island was angry at Zeus because she wasn't born in Kaan's time.
He is the only son of a Greek mother. Sometimes he mistakes his mother with his Turkish/German step father. (They have the same amounts of hair on their lips) His biological father died when he was just 7. And no it wasn't Kaan's evil scheme. He had a traffic accident. Though after his father's death he confessed that he hid the "I will survive" tape. His father might had been searching for the tape whilst he drove the car into water canal.
He went to primary school and learned that girls had no penis. He prayed to god to give a penis to his best friend (girl) so she could pee. He also tryed to walk in her shoes (not literally -he wasn't that effeminate--) and he hold his pee for like a day and thought it should be very hard not to pee.
In elementary school he was the smartest guy in the class, though he still is, judging by an average Turkish person's IQ. He finished that and he earned to attend a British influenced high school. That's why he can speak better English than, say, Shakespeare.
After he graduated high school, he won the university entrance exam and he went to Cyprus to attend Kyrenia American University. His department was 'journalism and broadcasting' but he thought too many 'lies' involved with the job, he dropped off the university. (His right explanation to his parents was this, but everybody knows he's been caught naked swimming in the university's public swimming pool. He says Cyprus was very hot, it wasn't the hotness actually, it was a lost bet, he decided not to buy 1L bottle of Jack Tenessey whisky so he went in the pool naked)
After dropping that, he graduated from Istanbul Beykent university. His department was Tourist guidance. After trying to sell a tourist $100 fake Iranian carpet for $10000 as geniune he has been expelled from the community.
After that he attended an university in London. He couldn't pass the exams so his scholarship was dropped off. So he returned to his hometown.
He is a novelist/film director. A complete artist, like a Toreador, with his byronic attitude and moribund moon like skin he is one handsome bloke.
He wrote his first novel back in 2008. It was about an antropomorphic duck and dog's adventures in a fantasy setting. Actually the setting and storyline was just lying there he only took it (Before the alarms went off) It was way funnier than HHGTG but publisher didn't publish it and told him to write another one. He is writing his second novel. He started recently. This one is a bit political satire in a fable setting. If publisher doesn't publish this one either, he will hire a hitman to finish the job. Believe me, he knows too many hitmen. The drugdealer one calls him 'elder brother' all the time. (Did you get that his younger brother was once involved with car park mafia and drug dealing? though he declines it all the time. Don't let him hear this)
He is nowadays depressed. He will be enlisted in the army. It's an obligation and it's encumbent on any male Turkish citizen, even if they are not completely Turkish) He doesn't want to kill his Kurdish brothers but government will force him to do so. He is a concientious objector but he doesn't want to get tortured so he will serve in the army. Now he is waiting the penalty to commence. It's his last 6 months in the city. So he is trying to get the best out of life. But like how? Like kings, like archduches, like lords. He is smart, handsome, sexy, rich, polite, good in bed and last but not least he is the most modest guy I've ever known.
He also likes adventure games the most. He is also interested in Ancient Greece. Medieval history. Cinema, Music, Literature, painting, sculptures, science and as you can gather from his nick name philosophy.
His favourite band is The Beatles. Favourite movie: Otto E Mezzo. Favourite book: Also Sprach Zarathustra.
I am glad there are people like you here Gypsy : )
I like Broken Sword 1 the most. It's about Knights Templar, if you don't know. Then Monkey Island 1 then Sam and Max. I am not really old, just 23 years old. I couldn't play the first Monkey Island when it first came out but I've played the 1st Special Edition and Second and Third monkey Island games. Fourth and fifth ones are 3d which makes me to refrain from them. Also I am losing a lot by not playing Grim Fandango but can't be ar.sed right now. Have more important things to do.
I assume you like adventure games too, which one's your favourite?
I've never played any Monkey Island game. I'm told I'm a lesser person because of it. By extension, you should play it so you are not a lesser person, too.
Kain: welcome to the forum.
Oh, Monkey Island, iirc they are all on Steam now.

Monkey Island games? Are these games something I should be playing? I like adventure games. What console are they on?
The original Monkey Island games came out on PC/Mac/Amiga/etc. I remember playing Monkey Island 1 when I was eleven years old. There are very few games from that era that I go back and play, but I made sure to get the remade version for Xbox live when it came out. Monkey Island 1 is certainly a game everyone should play at some point in some format!
Speaking of the classic Monkey Island, did anyone else see that video of a mod made using Cryengine? Someone recreated Monkey Island 2's scenery with it and it looks GORGEOUS.
