| MatsuriSakuragi:
What other fandoms would you consider yourself a part of? Do you still have any hobbies that you had in your childhood? |
| Tengukami:
Sorry about the lateness of my reply! Work galore got in the way. Anyways: --- Quote from: Genichiro on August 17, 2011, 10:49:21 PM ---If you could put any two people in a room and watch them beat the stuffing out of each other, who would they be? --- End quote --- Michelle Bachman and Michelle Malkin. It'd be the Battle of the Michelles. --- Quote from: Genichiro on August 17, 2011, 10:49:21 PM ---If you could go out for a drink with anyone in the world, who would it be? --- End quote --- Living: Arundhati Roy. Dead: William S. Burroughs. --- Quote from: Genichiro on August 17, 2011, 10:49:21 PM ---When you became a father of an adorable little girl, did you buy a shotgun to keep on hand for when she starts dating? --- End quote --- Well, my plan is to teach her self-respect and self-awareness, enough to where hopefully no skeezebag is going to be able to manipulate her. But of course I'm protective. I just have to keep in mind that when parents say "No, I don't want you to see that boy", it tends to make them want to see that boy even more, so ... yeah. It's a delicate balance. --- Quote from: Sakura Kyouko on August 18, 2011, 09:29:43 PM ---Do you enjoy dancing? If you do, what kind of dance? --- End quote --- I do enjoy dancing, and my favorite step is the Nervous White Boy. You've probably seen it before, done by amateurs, but I'm a pro. --- Quote from: Sakura Kyouko on August 18, 2011, 09:29:43 PM ---What's your favourite fic in PSL (aside from your own, of course)? --- End quote --- Wow, that's a tough one. Thanks for reminding me to pick up White Rose again, as I was really enjoying that. Anything by IcedFairy, of course, and Purvis' Day Planners, and that sci-fi piece Serp did some time ago. I'm sure I'm forgetting people, but don't take it personally - I really enjoy reading Touhou fanfiction in general, as I love how people treat the mythology. --- Quote from: Rin Kagamine on August 18, 2011, 03:20:23 AM ---"Great minds discuss ideas, average minds discuss events, small minds discuss people." How do you feel about that statement? --- End quote --- I think great, average and small minds discuss all three of these things, but I do see the point - more intelligent people tend to think beyond their own backyard. --- Quote from: Tic-TAC-Toe on August 18, 2011, 09:49:54 PM ---What foods do you like? Which ones do you recommend? --- End quote --- I eat pretty much anything except raw onions. Recommendations? Wor Shu Opp. Man I miss that stuff. --- Quote from: Tic-TAC-Toe on August 18, 2011, 09:49:54 PM ---Do you think your past experience with certain substances has left any permanent physical or mental effects? Does it motivate you more to keep your daughter away from them? --- End quote --- Drugs haven't left any physical effects, no. As far as mental effects, here's the thing: if I never did any drugs, and forgot where I put my housekeys one day, I would conclude I was forgetful, or stressed out, or simply misplaced them. So in the context of having taken drugs, I honestly can't tell what among my everyday oopsies are the result of drug use or not. Now, I don't think anyone needs to take drugs. Like, at all. And I do think some of them are downright dangerous and should be avoided. However, scientific evidence seems to indicate that marijuana is less harmful than cigarettes or alcohol, so to be honest, I'd be more concerned about my daughter smoking tobacco or drinking alcohol than if I caught her smoking a joint in her room. It's my intention to talk to her about drugs, but crafting that speech in my head is tricky. Fortunately, she's only 5, so I think I have time to figure it out. --- Quote from: Rin Kagamine on August 18, 2011, 10:45:07 PM ---What does DMC stand for? --- End quote --- Darryl McDaniels, the flyest brother to rock a Kangol. --- Quote from: Rin Kagamine on August 18, 2011, 10:45:07 PM ---Rank the Puella and Kyuubey in order of best-ness? --- End quote --- Homura>everyone else. --- Quote from: Rin Kagamine on August 18, 2011, 10:45:07 PM ---Strangest thing you've ever seen as a pizza topping? --- End quote --- In this tiny village in east England I stopped in a pizza shop and saw green peas, mashed potato, and egg offered as toppings. English people are weird. --- Quote from: Rin Kagamine on August 18, 2011, 10:45:07 PM ---Top 5 favorite movies? --- End quote --- Man, this is a tough one. When I think of truly great movies, these are the first five that spring to mind: Funny Bones Citizen Kane Good Fellas Mulholland Dr The Life Aquatic --- Quote from: Rin Kagamine on August 18, 2011, 10:45:07 PM ---How pedantic are you about grammar when others are speaking? --- End quote --- Not at all. It's rude to interrupt what someone is saying with, "Actually, it's should have" or some shit. Doing that is a great way to get people to stop talking to you. --- Quote from: Rin Kagamine on August 18, 2011, 10:45:07 PM ---If I can make it out there next summer should I bring some mead? Will you supply cider? --- End quote --- Dude, if you come out here next summer there will be cider aplenty. I'll start brewing now. Seriously, come out here. I'll make it unforgettable. --- Quote from: Rin Kagamine on August 18, 2011, 10:45:07 PM ---Thoughts on Henry Rollins? --- End quote --- Great in Black Flag, alright in his early spoken word stuff, sort of a clownish punk rock grandpa today. --- Quote from: Momiji on August 18, 2011, 11:57:23 PM ---What's the food like in Iceland? What's some of the national fare? --- End quote --- Iceland is pretty Americanized. These people love them some burgers, pizza and KFC. The national food is only eaten by tourists. --- Quote from: herdcrabs on August 19, 2011, 04:43:22 AM ---Do you think discrimination against race/religion/sexuality/gender will ever be eliminated in society? --- End quote --- Probably not. It's human nature to fear/hate The Other, and people will construct all kinds of rationalisations for implementing it legally. --- Quote from: herdcrabs on August 19, 2011, 04:43:22 AM ---What was your motivation to move out of the USA, back then? --- End quote --- I came out here on vacation, met some Icelanders, went back home, jokingly told them I could always move to Iceland, and when they sincerely offered to help me immigrate, I thought, "Fuck it, why not? I'm still young. If it doesn't work out, I can always move back home." --- Quote from: ur on August 19, 2011, 07:52:09 AM ---You seem to be a very popular person on MotK. Most of the active users (and maybe even some of the non-active ones) know who you are, and you have a good (or at least neutral) relationship with them. Many times your opinion or advice has been sought after concerning various matters around the world and here on the forums. How do you feel about this? --- End quote --- Wow, thanks. I dunno, I think these people have done so much more for me than I have for them. For real, whether it's been the forums, IRC or Skype, these folks have gotten me through some pretty rough patches just by being awesome people. If anything I say, or any blowhard opinion I spout, happens to do anyone any good, then that's great. Hopefully that'll help pay back what they've given me. Sorry for not answering the others right now - I will by the end of the thread. --- Quote from: Just Simply Solais on August 19, 2011, 01:16:50 PM ---I'm in Bulgaria right now. What I should do now? --- End quote --- Go to Varna, get to the beach, and drink some Kamenitza while snacking on fried mackerel. --- Quote from: Mami Tomatsuri on August 20, 2011, 02:13:59 AM ---What other fandoms would you consider yourself a part of? --- End quote --- Apart from anime? Hm. I don't really know. Maybe the Syrufit fandom? --- Quote from: Mami Tomatsuri on August 20, 2011, 02:13:59 AM ---Do you still have any hobbies that you had in your childhood? --- End quote --- Yep, writing. My other childhood hobbies - riding my bike, building models, playing D&D - have fallen to the wayside. But hey, nothing saying I won't pick them up again! |
| Rin Kagamine:
I've always preferred the "Devastating Mic Control" definition myself. Yeah, I'm trying to do a Europe trip if I can arrange the funds. Iceland Air is the cheapest way to get to Germany. Want to hit Munich, Hamburg and Dresden, and hopefully hit Vienna down in Austria. "Aw look, it's Henry Rollins. He misses the 80s." |
| Alfred F. Jones:
What is your idea of a good day, from start to finish? Is marriage for everyone? |
| Mimachiro:
How many drinks does it take to get a drunk Ammy? Fire, Water, Lightning, Earth, or Wind? Light side or dark side? |
