Thanks to this post by /u/looks_like_a_penguin, we figured a subreddit would be a good place to organise penpalling within the greater Troll community.

Welcome to Troll Penpal, where we help Trolls send each other mail.

Inspired by this post by /u/looks_like_a_penguin in /r/TrollXChromosomes.

32/m/Wisconsin

So, for mental health reasons (anxiety's a hell of a disease), I have to spend the next few months not working. We're moving back in with my parents, and I'm going to have a lot of downtime, and one can only fish so much. Besides, after one of my buddies went to prison, I learned I really liked writing letters on my old manual typewriter. I'm married with a 5yo son and an adorable puppy, both of whom will probably feature in my letters. I also fish, play music, smoke pipes and cigars, and make dad jokes (comes with the territory). Anywho, that's what I got. I hope to hear from you soon.

I'm nervous and trying to find people interested in corresponding with me while I go on this adventure. PM me if you want to get mail from Liberia.

I'm the only one at my job with a sense of humor, but the others are becoming alarmed that I talk to myself all day ...

Anyone else super freaking bored at their job all day and just want to go home? Or for the boss to stop waking you from your bathroom naps to answer the damn phone?

I'm the only female at my job, and the only one who only speaks English. (Everyone else knows Russian.) So does anyone want to email back and forth during the work day?

I love all types of music, was a big gamer (PC and console) gamer until my daughter was born in 2011, love my 🐱... Just bored! Save me!!

27/f/Norway but Australian but Polish as well. I love sarcasm, puns, black humour, being outside, also being inside on my laptop. Inside my laptop. Surely it's warm and magical in there.

Hallais. Let's send each other mail with funny stamps on it. Let's write our favourite crappy jokes and exchange pointless life hacks. Let's just be. Keen!

25/f/West Coast, I'm an illustrator, cat enthusiast, video game enthusiast, sassy pants extraordinaire and I love all things creepy and morbid.

Let's exchange doodles, or talk about our cats, or which games we like playing the best. Hell, let's talk about scary movies or creepy dreams.

I miss writing real letters and I would love to talk about anything you're excited about, because life is grand! PM me or comment if you're interested!!

24/F Midwest troll looking for an online penpal!

Hey guys! Currently in college. I'd like to start out online, maybe Skyping and such before snail mail. I'm super into Harry Potter (still reading the books! I'm an awful reader), and Disney (if you like Treasure Planet and/or Atlantis, I already love you!). I get along super well with anime nerds and really animated people. The more emojis the better! :) (if you know Myer Briggs types, I am a to-a-T ENFP!) I'm majoring in music. I'll warn you ahead of time, I haven't done penpal stuff in a long time so I may suck at it. But I'd really like to give it a shot. I don't really have any friends here (dorm life without a car) and I'm pretty limited in my ability to go out, as I have a cyst in my throat that I can't have operated on until January and so I can't really go out too much because it's constricting my breathing. I'd love to make some friends!

18/F/PA

Hi! Thanks a bunch for reading this! I'm 18 years old and I really need to talk to new people!

I plan on having no children and cute dogs in the future. I absolutely love history, video games (November 10th is the day I'll die), heavy metal music, animals, books, science-fiction and cyber-punk things!

Any gender, orientation, etc. is welcomed <3 For any kind of mail though I'm new to this! I hope to hear from you soon!

30/F/Michigan USA nerdy/girly girl

Uh. Yeah. I used to do the penpal thing way back when, and I don't really get mail anymore, so. Let's send each other shit.

Things I like:

  • drinking

  • animals (I have two cats and am adopting a dog)

  • Pinterest

  • GOMI

  • tv (The Office, Parks & Rec, Firefly, Brooklyn 99, Bob's Burgers, Agents of SHIELD)

  • nerdy shit (Star Wars, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Doctor Who)

  • food

  • video games

  • books (mainly of the fantasy variety)

I met Nathan Fillion once and it was the best day of my life.

ETA: Noticed I never mentioned the "girly" part of my title, derp. I also like makeup and skincare and hair stuff and clothes.

36/F, Danish, would love a penpal, open to snail or email, any age, gender or location

I have a 2 yr old daughter, am married, work full time, and I love movies, reading, travelling and outdoor pursuits, among other things. You do not have to be similar to me at all - but I would love to find a penpal to exchange thoughts, ideas and ruminations with.

31/F from North Carolina (southern U.S.). Looking for wine or whiskey-soaked correspondence. Will reciprocate in kind.

Short bio:

  • I'm a 2015 law school graduate, currently awaiting bar exam results.
  • Just got a new puppy, and house training is ... just as stressful as I expected.
  • Semi-retired roller derby girl (but I will still hip-check a bitch).
  • Applying for jobs and cover letters are the devil. That is why I would rather write pen-pal letters.

Looking for a friend for the end of the world

Hello, I am an American person seeking to write, doodle, and probably spill wine on letters to another person. Luckily I prefer white wine so, no biggie.

I like doing adult things such as drinking, watching quality television, using big words, and contemplating the end of society, but also enjoy kid things like video games, coloring, and touching insects. Human things like sleeping and eating are also pretty high on the list!

If you also enjoy things, and if you are not too far away (postage is exorbitant!), please reach out to me.

Anybody curious about how much it costs to send a letter to another country?

I've got a link for you right here! :) (for my US compatriots)

Through Royal Mail

Through UPS (it appears to be international friendly for both sending and receiving)

Have any that you know work? Comment below and I'll be sure to add them! :)

24/Philadelphia. Domestic and International Pen Pals requested!

I live in the City of Brotherly Love (and Sisterly Affection) and would love to exchange letters some domestic and international pen pals. I enjoy crocheting (even though I have never finished a project), reading novels, drinking loose-leaf tea, and exploring the city.

Let me know if anyone is interested! I can promise you plenty of letters with the occasional polaroid of cool things in the city. (Depending on the shipping cost, I may be able to send a box or two of TastyKakes)

US college student troll open to domestic or international, and snail or e-mail!

Hi!

21 year old college student located in Pittsburgh. I'm a fan of all things wine and Netflix, and would love to have a penpal to write to and chat with. (I like getting mail and emails that aren't bills and am in need of some new friends so a penpal sounds like a good start)

Midwest girl whose BF swears is a serial killer, but I promise I'm not!

But I am a cereal killer.

(Pause for laughter. Shuffle awkwardly when there is no laughter.)

I love getting mail that's not marked URGENT: PAST DUE, so getting a pen pal world be the coolest thing ever!

Books have always been my best friends. I totally don't sit in the bathtub reading Harry Potter fanfic or watching RuPaul while drinking beer. Video games, dirty cross stitch, and cooking take up the rest of my time. Apparently I use the word "flesh" inappropriately in bed.

I live in the middle of South Dakota so an international correspondence may take a bit, but it's just as welcome as US and may even give me a chance to try out my old high school German.
