Don't hug me, I'm scared
Hello, my name is Teddy. I'm an atheist and I am looking to branch out and get involved in communities of like-minded people. At least on the "there's no god" aspect. I am surrounded by theists and I find it hard to connect with them about the things I like or things that matter to me. But that's the good thing about the internet, right? You can make friends who aren't physically present.

Believe me, there're many on this planet who aren't, in fact, present, in various senses of that word, but, yes, there're many paths to friendships, at all definitions of that word, in the buzz of anonymous electrons herein, so welcome! 
Have you got an opening idea you'd like to take off your jacket and set out on the table? Or several?

Sometimes they are the best kind. They can't annoy you to help them move a couch or something.

I had one in particular that urged me to sign up last night but I'm still getting my thoughts together.
Thank you all for the warm welcomes!

Welcome, Mr Bear. I'm assuming that's your last name.  Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Tacos?
They're better than hugs.

I thought it might be Sezown-Liukin-Pruhvenn-Phourice-Phyrz, Jr. and so was omitted for brevity. Either that or Roosevelt.
