If you are new, please awkwardly announce that to everyone here (if you're into that sort of thing).
I'm Prophecy Girl. I enjoy Skittles and ancient sea beasts. Jake and I go way back, though only one of us is aware of that. (And to be honest, I'm not sure which of us that is.)
Welcome!

OK, it is I, Vanessa, AKA, "V", to the masses. I am here, not queer, & you best get used to it! So, let's just say I am an old fan of Gylls, but new to belonging to any fansite or blog or whatthefuckever for him. I have been a member of numerous other fansites for other gorgeous actors for years. But until I saw PoP in May did I yearn to discuss him at length with other drooling fans. I will never forget when I saw Prince Dastan in all his glory & I said to my friend, "Hot damn, Donnie Darko grew up!!!" & then I accidentally discovered I'm Stalking Jake blog by the one & only Prophecy Girl a few months ago, so here I am! I already know this is going to be one hot & funny forum. Yay! ;D

Hi Hello. I'm Katie. I'm a recent Jake fan...within the last 6 months or so...I'm very upset about it, its very painful for me to admit. Jarhead is what brought me to ISJ in the first place. Well, actually, Jarhead created the obsession and ISJ is where I went (and still come) to talk this thing through.
Anyhow I'm a Proboard veteran and a forum addict so this could prove fatal for me.
Edit: Don't use the pink font. You can barely see it!

Hi. I'm Kris, and I'm a Jake-aholic. It's been 2 days since I saw my last Jake film. I've been addicted to Jake for nearly 10 years, and struggle with the consequences daily. Some days are better than others, but I find it nearly impossible to keep clean. I'm thankful for such a strong support group, but often wonder if life wouldn't be better if I spent all day just watching Donnie Darko on repeat.

This is KD from ISJ. I suck at participating on forums but I will try my best. I don't even know how to begin...
Since I'm here I think it's pretty obvious I'm a Jake fan...Jarhead, BBM, PoP, Donnie Darko, October Sky...all that jazz.

*ahem* I'm a charter member of JakeWatch and have the badge to prove it. Alright, I got to JakeWatch late - I started around the time of Baby Gate (see The Book for more details) so I'm not an actual charter member but I WAS around during britpopbaby and JakeWatch days. I live in the midwestern United States and am currently unemployed like millions of other Americans (sorry for the downer). And yes, as a matter of fact I do love coffee and cats, but not necessarily together. CC ps Hi Sam!!!!!

Hi.
Love writing, love reading. Stumbled upon ISJ while looking for the truth about Jake's twitter account. Can never be far from here afterwards. (And yea, you bet I read all posts).
Jake Gyllenhaal + I ---> Have. No. Idea.
[start] Bubble Boy, October Sky, The Good Girl, The Day After Tomorrow, Donnie Darko, Moonlight Mile, Proof, Zodiac, Rendition .. [pause] .. Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, Brothers, Brokeback Mountain, Jarhead .. [continue in high speed] .. Proof, Zodiac, Rendition, The Day After Tomorrow, Donnie Darko, Brokeback Mountain, Moonlight Mile, October Sky, Bubble Boy, Brokeback Mountain, Moonlight Mile, Proof, Jarhead, Brokeback Mountain .. [lost in counting] .. Prince of Persia, Prince of Persia, Prince of Persia, Prince of Persia .. [will never stop till Jake's new movie's up, then will lather-rinse-repeat].
I'll let you diagnose my state.

Hi!
Am I the only male here? Good grief! Ahem.
Really really like our Jake, but I LOVE the way ISJ adds that ironic touch and does not take itself too seriously. Got into him after seeing a few of his movies in rapid succession.
Can't wait until the sequel to "Jake walks succesfully across a parking lot" comes out! I hear it's gonna be great!

Hi squirrel and welcome! I'm BubbleGirl and Jimmy is here with me so you aren't EXACTLY the only dude here. He won't actually get on the computer though to comment, so he just pokes me all the time (which is really getting annoying) and tells me stuff to say to people here. I know you will have fun here even if it is just with a bunch of what is they call themselves again? Gyllensomethingorother Ho's, I think? or maybe not. I never can figure out that Jake guy's last name, it is way too hard. Anyways, Prophecy Girl is off running all over the country it seems this weekend, but she will be back either tomorrow or Monday. and we will have a good time here, I know it!

WELCOME EVERYONE!! Squirrel, you are by no means the only male reader, but you are currently my favorite one for being the first to sign up over here... I love that so far the new people are outnumbering the Jake Watchers! Such is The Power of The Jake. (You may now continue with your forced introductions.)
