What is your pet peeve?
Elijah_Morendale
07-24-07, 08:34 AM
Braindead customers who need to be walked through every single step of deciding whether they want the pink or green 4GB iPod, then after five minutes of me standing there ready to open the case, they ask their significant other what they think they should have.
What book are you reading right now?
The Oresteia.
Creamsicle or Klondike bar?
Yamihara
07-24-07, 03:40 PM
Whatsa Creamsicle? I think I'll go with the Klondike Bar for this one, sir.
OK~! Boy or Girl?!
...As in your kids, that is!
Destrudo
07-24-07, 03:44 PM
Whatever I am blessed with. If I have only boys, then so be it. If I have only girls, then so be it. A mix of both, I don't care.

Hey~ Mister Destructo! You're supposed to make a question of your own as well, you know!
Oh, well. Since you're not going to make one...
What is the season that best suits you?!
Winter. In winter all things are equalised, the weak become strong, those that survive, the strong become weak, and all things come to a calm, a lull, as the world waits in anticipation for the first warm breath from the young maiden of spring, freeing it from the grip of The Old Hag of winter.
What do you, or do you not, believe in, and why?
I believe in Fate. I've come to certain places at EXACTLY the right time to make a difference in certain lives too many times to not believe in Fate.
What's your favorite flower? ((mine's the red carnation. Not that anyone cares, lol.))
Destrudo
07-24-07, 04:49 PM
A blue Morning Glory, because it it was the first flower I grew, and it was a mothers day gift for my mother.
Laurea Aeglos
07-25-07, 02:44 AM
Yo Destrudo, you are supposed to add a question in after you answer one. Oh well.
Popcorn. Plain, butter, cheese or caramel?
Destrudo
07-25-07, 10:08 AM
I thought I did. Oh well.
Cheese Popcorn.
Love and Honor in a poor man's life filled with family and friends, or mistrust and dishonesty in a rich man's life all alone?
AdventWings
07-26-07, 06:49 AM
Love and Honor in any circumstances. I wouldn't have it any other way.
Where do you like to hang out when the weather's muddled and gloomy?
Destrudo
07-26-07, 12:58 PM
Outside in the muddle and gloom.

If a tree falls in the woods and no one is there to hear it, does it still make a sound?
Moonlit Raven
07-31-07, 12:00 AM
Of course. It's impossible for something of that mass to not make a noise when falling.
What is your favorite animal?
AdventWings
07-31-07, 12:50 AM
Need you ask? ;)
A kitty, of course! Myao~!

*Me rolls my eyes*
Where's your question, Valanthe? Ya really need to make one right after you post a reply, ne?
To answer the above: Work as a bouncer. Or a bodyguard for hire. Nothing beats beating people up, eh?
What kind of bird are you? I'd be a peregrine falcon, for example.
I'm either a Great Blue Heron -- graceful and elegant, and attacks out of nowhere -- or a finch. Those buggers are so smartmouthed and witty, and get so indignant when you cross them.
What's your fave song?
Artifex Felicis
08-01-07, 02:54 PM
According to iTunes.
It's the End of the World as we Know it by REM.
It depends on any given day though for the number one slot.
Pratchett or Gaiman?
Moonlit Raven
08-03-07, 12:43 AM
Gaiman! ... I hope Manda never sees this answer. She may kill me for not picking Prachet.
Chaucer, Homer or Keats?
Kially Gaith
08-03-07, 12:56 AM
I'm naive, I don't know who you're talking about.

Enough with the this or that trend for this game, Nya~ There's one thread for it already! :D
Time's flying out the window! What do you do?!
Save it in a bottle of course.
If I had the power to spawn and control blackholes with perfect control, would "The Sucker" Be a good superhero name, with a catch phrase of "There's one born every minute."?
No. No, it wouldn't be.

"...me."
Aye, sucha crafty answer that be. ;)
What kind of sports are you most into watching?
Eww.
What is the best way to get a computer to stop acting up after water was spilled on it?
AsukaStrikes
08-04-07, 04:59 AM
I dread to visualize what sport you're referring to.
Shut down and put it out in the sun. It'll stop acting up from the moisture, but it'll act up because of overheating instead. :rolleyes:
If you could have any one kind of bladed items you've ever known, what would you want to get?
A bat'leth. Watching bat'leth fighting isn't so bad, come to think of it.

Elijah_Morendale
08-04-07, 08:00 AM
Because dandruff almost looks like birdseed to the untrained eye.

Nephilium
08-04-07, 06:21 PM
Watermelon, it was just under 15 lbs. I think I was eight so my mom had to help me.
Who is your favorite author?
Destrudo
08-04-07, 06:26 PM
Chistopher Stasheff, and his Wizard in Rhyme Series.
If you could meet one famous person face to face, ( and not act like a total dweeb) who would it be and what would you do?
Moonlit Raven
08-04-07, 08:26 PM
Steven Guttenberg. I would ask to shake his hand and if I could treat him to lunch.
If you could live in any era you wanted to, when would it be?
I would live in the times of Jesus, preferably in one of the many places he preached in, so that I might see him with my own eyes.
If you could live in one fictional place where would it be?
AdventWings
08-05-07, 11:17 AM
On the Planet Eureka 7.
Either that, or MegaTokyo. See Fred Gallagher's online comic to see why. :p
[/spam]
What political alignment are you? ;)
Kially Gaith
08-05-07, 12:01 PM
Social anarchist. ^_~
What type of cookie do you like best?
Destrudo

Grandma's Cookies. Especially when their fresh from the oven!
What's your sign?
I was always fond of the STOP sign. (http://i131.photobucket.com/albums/p311/lordtitt0/Hammertime_stopsign.jpg) ;)
Death by suffocation or drowning?
Ataraxis
08-05-07, 03:35 PM
Probably suffocation. Drowning is not like going back home!
According to you, who is the most eminent person to have ever lived? As in, someone who's contributed so much to the world that life as we know it would be utterly different, had that person never been born.
Umm...wow. Geez.
Whoever invented architecture/engineering. Yup. Definitely him. After that, the guy that invented writing. I don't know their names.
Do you know their names?
Elijah_Morendale
08-05-07, 03:41 PM
No, can't say I do.
How much did you pay for your shoes?
Ataraxis
08-05-07, 03:43 PM
Tricky, considering they aren't so much inventions as they are results of baser, simpler things evolving. But I'll go out on a limb and say Caveman Joe for the former, and a Sumerian dude for the latter!
40 bucks! They were a steal. It was the bestest day.
Inversely, who are the five people the world would've done oh-so much better without?
Nero Caesar, Julius Caesar for that matter, the guy who decided England should own China, Hernan Cortez, and Josef Stalin. Yes, I DID omit Hitler from the list. And y'know what? Switch out Nero for Jesus. While I admit the guy taught some good stuff...more people have been murdered in his name than in the name of anyone else throughout the past two thousand years.
What about you? Who are your worst five?
Elijah_Morendale
08-05-07, 03:56 PM
Paris Hilton, Jessica Simpson, Nichole Richie (sp?), Lil' Jon, and whoever decided that an overabundance of commercial rap on the radio was a good thing.
You got a question?
And y'know what? Switch out Nero for Jesus. While I admit the guy taught some good stuff...more people have been murdered in his name than in the name of anyone else throughout the past two thousand years.Yes, entirely his blame. Not the blame of Popes and the Church and the ignorant folk that misinterpret his message, but his blame. He deserves to be put in the same basket as mass murderers and tyrants. Why not add Muhammad to the list as well? Most of those Islamic extremist claim to be on their jihad when they detonate car bombs and crash planes into skyscrapers.
Christoph
08-05-07, 05:48 PM
Joseph Stalin, that French dude who's name I forgot who pushed the issue of punishing Germany after WWI (and thus helping the Nazi party come into power later), Caligula (insane Roman Emperor), Mao Zedong, and Neville Chamberlain (for having no spine).
I left Hitler off of the list as well. Firstly, it didn't have to be him since there were a good handful of psychopaths wanting to take control of Germany at the time. Secondly: if the allies, particularly France, hadn't demanded that Germany be punished after World War I, he'd have never gotten anywhere, anyway. Thirdly, despite the fact that he murdered millions, the war his aggressive imperialism caused brought along unprecedented technological and cultural advances.
I must say, though, that I'd never put Jesus on such a list. This isn't because I'm a strong Christian, because I'm not. However, the deaths in the Crusades are nothing compared to Stalin's death count, and that was a war in which both sides were to blame. Even if you count the Spanish Conquistadores, who were motivated far more by gold than by their supposed faith, it would still have a hard time matching the millions upon millions that Stalin personally had murdered.
At any rate: Which fictional world would you most want to get trapped in? Also, which fictional world would you NOT want to get trapped in?
Destrudo
08-05-07, 05:54 PM
The Giant Garden of Gaia (Made by me), and The Void of Kajeenith (Also Made by Me.)
What was the largest fictional World you ever made?
BlackAndBlueEyes
08-05-07, 05:58 PM
^^
I'd love to be trapped in Christopher Moore's version of San Francisco. Vampires, death merchants, Asher's Secondhand, and The Animals, a homeless bum who is widely regarded as (and acts like) The Emperor of SF, and a crazy wannabe goth girl named Abby Normal... Sign me up!
I wouldn't want to be trapped in the universe of Magic: The Gathering (from the Brothers' War leading up to the Phyrexian War), although I wouldn't mind being trapped in Mercadia.

The largest fictional world I've created was the realm called Lyrania, as alluded to in my group's radio drama "Fantasy Quest".

Who's your favorite manga/anime artist?
Corvus MacCallum
08-05-07, 06:11 PM
Go Nagai, creator of Mazinger Z, Devilman and Getter Robo, it was he that gave birth to the whole idea of human piloted robots, Devilman was also one hell of a severe tale of a tortured hero. His art-style is damn class too and while the plots are nearly always very simply he and his partner Ken Ishikawa do a fantastic job at delivering it in an effective way. Oh and he also made Cutie Honey, a magical girl the guys can like, so its alllll good heh.

What is your favourite regional/national accent?
Destrudo
08-05-07, 06:21 PM
Irish. I have no idea what it is about Irish women and their method of speaking, but I could just listen to it for hours.
Same Question.
Elijah_Morendale
08-05-07, 06:28 PM
British accent.
Preferably from the mouth of a redhead with secretary glasses.
Same question, 'cause I'm out of them for the moment.
Christoph
08-05-07, 06:53 PM
It's a toss up between Russian, German, and good old British.
What accent do you reall, REALLY hate?
Scottish.
Favorite Epic movie?

Same question so that someone with a good answer can respond.
AdventWings
08-05-07, 11:57 PM
Mmm... Liquor...
I've already said it once before, but I'll say it again.
Wine. Good wine. Cabernet Sauvignon is great. Bordeaux is great as well.
And if all else fails, Apple Juice. :p
What's your favorite dish that is not a fastfood? (Slow-grilled hamburgers and enchiladas do not apply :p)
The World's largest hamburger, 29 1/2 pounds of beef!
How many days would it take you to eat the world's largest hamburger?
Christoph
08-06-07, 04:57 PM
Ironically, the exact same number of days that it would take my arteries to explode.
Are cute animals tastier than ugly ones?
No. I like beef better than I like bunny.
What's the strangest meat you've ever eaten?
Valanthe
08-06-07, 05:21 PM
Buffalo, and boy was it tasty. Posting in an account with a druidess for a character, I feel a tad guilty for saying that...
If someone accidently tracked TP from the Restroom/Loo, would you inform them of it before they embarressed themselves?
Elijah_Morendale
08-06-07, 05:26 PM
I would be the first one to notice it. Whether or not I'd laugh would depend on whether or not I'm the one with TP on their shoe.
What's on your T-shirt?
Valanthe
08-06-07, 05:30 PM
A Dog. More to the point a heinz 57 with carmel white fur, brown eyes, a blue collar, and a lovable personality. She loves a good back Scratch. Her name is Carmen. She's no bigger than the average chihuahua.
What's on your shirt?
Christoph
08-06-07, 09:49 PM

" Yeah, getting old sucks. You're health goes, you become a burden to everyone. Hell, I'm blind in one eye. Every left turn with me is a dance with death." - Sam the Bus Driver form the Drew Carey Show
If you had to run a restaurant and you ran it into the ground, who would you ask to help get you back on your feet? Gordon Ramsey ( Business savvy) or Robert Irvine ( Cooking savvy)?
Chiroptera
08-06-07, 11:20 PM
Gordon Ramsey. Food is irrelevant.
What, for you, would constitute a perfect breakfast?
Corvus MacCallum
08-07-07, 12:40 AM
Simple tastes, big big bowl of rice crispises and good fresh semi-skimmed milk, maybe a few slices of banana but really kellogs got that brand right.
Question... of the many hero/rival duos in fighting games which is your fav?... Ryu and Ken?.... Sol Badguy and Ky Kiske?... Kyo and Iori?
Artifex Felicis

Siegfried and Nightmare.
Best Non movie that you watched? Anything from Dune to Ren and Stimpy counts.
AsukaStrikes
08-07-07, 05:42 AM
Neon Genesis Evangelion.
Raven made me watch that last night. Up until 4 in the morning. Woot.
What is the worst thing you've ever drank in the past year? And what about the worst drink you had in your entire life?
Ataraxis
08-07-07, 10:22 AM
Uno Raspberry Lime Rickey. The sugar burned my brain, and I had to wash my tongue down with water that tasted like bleach. Worse drink ever would have to be a cup of cooking oil...
My teacher made me!
What's your favorite Sci-Fi movie?
Destrudo
08-07-07, 04:28 PM
Star Trek Nemisis. It was the only trek movie that moved me to tears, because of its ending. All Data ever wanted to be was human, maybe someday, I can be as human as he was.
Have you ever heard of the group "Midnight Syndicate" And the awesome music they make?
