Move on, nothing to see here.

That`s not a statement really, more a heartfelt request.

I'm not new to the forum, been here nearly 5 years now, just never formally introduced myself. Like the guy who over hears your conversation and then injects my unsolicited opinion into it.

Where about are you from?:
Annapolis, Maryland also known as the "Land of Pleasant Living", "The Free State", The "Old Line State." We love Blue Crabs and are notoriously bad drivers, but we'll argue that we aren't bad drivers. We also apparently like giving ourselves nicknames.

How did you find these forums?:
When I first began following the club I was doing loads of research and trying to find as much information as I could, bouncing around the interwebs and came across the site. Saw a recurrence of words like "fume" and figured I'd settle in nicely.

How did you become an Evertonian?:
I really don't know, Nothing specifically, I just was one day. I play the sport and always loved it but never got into the MLS. Being in the states at the time you could watch very little Premier League matches and those were the Manchester United, Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal matches. I walked into my local (an Irish joint) one morning and asked them to put the Everton match on cause I had heard they aired some (proper) football. They didn't have it live but the landlord pulled his laptop out of the back and pulled it up on a Fox Sports paysite or something the like for me. Everton 0 - 0 Stoke in May 2010, go figure. Been a roller coaster since then with, well, little highs, lots of lows, but I wouldn't change it for the world.

Your all-time favourite Everton player?:
Players I love who were massive to the club like Cahill and Duncetc. but I don't particularly have a favorite. However, if I MUST select one player, it would be Hibbo. Got a soft spot for those who spend their childhood and entire career with one club.

Your current favourite player?:
See above...

Pineapple on Pizza, Is it socially acceptable? What are your views?:
Not for me, don't believe fruit belongs on pizza, or in beer.


Wait, what?

What am I missing?
To each their own, drink the beer you enjoy, but "no fruit in beer" sounds very much like the silly mantra Budweiser has been pumping for the past few years. If you don't want a Pumpkin Peach Ale, fair enough (neither do I, although it should be noted that InBev, Bud's parent, owns the brewery that makes the stuff slandered in the TV-spot.) But to wholesale reject the idea of "fruit in beer" kicks out some of truly fabulous beers in the history of mankind. If you haven't first enjoyed a hefe-weizen with a slice of lemon or you have slowly turned up a St Bernardus, do that first then come back and let's discuss.

I have tried a lot of different beers with fruit in them from a Hefe-weizen with lemon to the Corona with a lime. I just don't like them. I enjoy and prefer the age old acquired taste of beer, real beer.
