User:szyslak

My name's Ben

As a Wikipedian, I'm really nothing special. My edit history is comprised of fixing typos, editing pages on useless pop culture topics and other wastes of time. I'm lazy, so I don't do anything useful. I have no featured articles and never will.

I'm named after this fictional character.
