I actually don't remember exactly where I found FSTDT. I know I found it by Googling something to do with religious fundamentalists. I found a link to FSTDT via another site in the search results. I was instantly hooked. Even though it quickly ripped what little faith I had in humanity to shreds, I still couldn't stop reading. The posts and comments were too friggin' funny to stop, and I had major trainwreck syndrome. You guys and your damned sanity and common sense also lifted my faith in humanity higher than it was before the fundies destroyed it. Oh, and come on, people, I'm shykid, and I've never really been all that scared to post on the forums! I'm just more of a mainpager and haven't had much interesting to contribute here on the forums. Seriously. (And being busy as all fuck doesn't help boost one's post count, either.) I lurked on the IRC a tiny bit, though, and I totally lived up to my handle there. And I am a total OCD edit-button nazi, FWIW. Can't have my posts lookin' shamefully ungrammatical and imperfectly worded. I guess that sort of almost counts as being shy--or at least easily embarrassed or something. I've never felt like a regular, really, but that doesn't stop me from polluting the mainpage comments with my drivel. I like to hope that I've made a few people laugh with my bizarre sense of humor, or that I've at least said something a little insightful that helped restore someone's hope for humanity that the fundies took away.

I found it on TV Tropes, too. It was some page about having no morals, and that some people think that they wouldn't have morals if they didn't believe in god.

A friend of mine told me about the mainpage and it's hilarity. From there it's the usual "found main page funny, registered on forum to get required post number and thus admin privilages, got bored of mainpage but not forum" and several thousand posts later here I am.
I truly pity you all.

Came here from TTLG when someone mentioned fundies shitting themselves over Pokemon.
...Ya know...I still haven't found that quote...

I think I was searching for something completely unrelated for a school project and found this through Google. Three hours later after reading through the top 100 I was completely hooked.
I originally joined the forum to get access to PubAd, but eventually just kind of ended up sticking around. I like it here, so... well, I stayed.

A friend sent a link to the top 100 several years ago. I kept up on the main page for a while. Then in late '06 I took a job where I worked the night shift. Needing something to keep me awake, I started lurking on the forums. A week or so later, I signed up. And I've been here ever since.

First it's Pokemon, then it's Magic: The Gathering, then it's D&D, A D&D, and before you know it, your children are running around like Alex and his droogs from A Clockwork Orange. Don't think it can't happen!

Shit. It's been so long now. I think there was a reference to FSTDT on a thread at Fark.com or something. I started lurking the old forum that WinAce was running, but I don't think I signed up for an account until it went under reconstruction and Yahweh took over administration or something.
Been here for a while I guess, but still mostly lurk because I am afraid of saying something stupid and usually don't have any astounding witty remarks to add to the conversation (though I wish I did!)

The J-Walk Blog used to link to FSTDT frequently.

I was reading the article about Christianity on ED (Hey, I'm not proud) and they had a link here.

From an IRL friend. We were talking about things that make us angry.

I was on a livejournal group and 'FSTDT' was recommended to someone, without a link. I googled it and decided I'd join.
