Why do you let me fish you to near extinction? :ohdear: |
| FinnKaenbyou:
How'd you end up getting into Touhou/MotK? Are the black fumes coming out of the library there to promote global warming so the earth ends up ruled by the fish? |
| Sect:
Which MotK member are you most likely to kidnap, for whatever reason? What countries have you visited? Which countries would you like to visit (assuming no time/money issues)? |
| Alfred F. Jones:
Why did you never finish your NaNoWriMo novel? Of the works in PSL, how many of the total (looks to be over 300 or so, including the ones in Koakuma's) have you actually read? |

Right, because shim asked for it, some questions will get accompanying pics, just like back with the Black Stories Special Editions :V --- Quote from: Rumia on April 13, 2011, 09:01:31 AM ---Rate the below as a poem: 譬 --- End quote --- --- Quote from: Genichiro Tatara on April 13, 2011, 09:54:13 AM ---Do you enjoy thunderstorms, or do they freak you out? --- End quote --- I like thunderstorms as long as I'm somewhere inside. Being surprised by one while walking outside isn't too enjoyable though. --- Quote ---Do you like the sound of a steady rain? --- End quote --- Not when I want to go out, like today. It's been raining all day and I'm not enjoying it. When I want to relax though, it can certainly be very calming when it's raining. --- Quote ---What's your favorite kind of landscape? (beach vs. forests vs. open country vs. etc.) --- End quote --- Islands. Small islands, specifically. I like the sea and I like woods, so islands like that are the best combination. Since being near the sea is rare for me though, forests are what I prefer for trips. Not some lame forests on even ground though, mountain forests are the best :3 --- Quote ---What's your favorite guilty pleasure? --- End quote --- Chocolate. Lots and lots of chocolate. In times when I had several lectures a day at uni I always had some chocolate with me to get my mood and energy up when it got boring. Luckily I am basically incapable of getting fat, no matter how much of that stuff I eat. Unfortunately that also works in that I can't properly gain weight when I want to (I'm kinda underweight, though healthy at least ;^^) --- Quote ---What would be the hardest bad habit you have to give up? --- End quote --- Procrastination (or however that is spelled again). I'm horribly lazy. I always get my stuff done when I have to, but I really wish I could motivate myself to do things better. (Like, writing my PSL-stories... >_< ) It works out for uni because I still start early enough to deliver proper results, but it still bugs me. --- Quote ---Why is Purvis your favorite? (inb4 teh hobo) --- End quote --- Because he lives in a cardboard box. Solid Snake also uses a cardboard box and Snake is cool. Therefore Purvis is cool as well. Also, Day Planners is to this day one of the best things I have read, in no small part thanks to its unusual style. --- Quote from: Biohazard on April 13, 2011, 12:42:30 PM ---Favourite food? --- End quote --- I don't think I have a clear favourite. I suppose gratins are pretty high up there. A good potatoe-gratin baked over with a ton of cheese, hmmmmm~ --- Quote ---Cake or pie? --- End quote --- Both. And right now, at least I'd like that :V --- Quote ---How neat are you? Or how much do you value it? --- End quote --- I value it a lot. Living it however, is another thing. I don't let it come to the point where I would have to be ashamed to go outside in regards to personal hygiene and clothing. But as for neatness in regards to my apartment.... Weeeell... errr.... Oh look, shiny thi-- Okay okay. This ties in with the laziness issue. I clean up very randomly so most of my flat is in a rather chaotic state often. I don't let dishes grow mold or something, but they still pile up until I run out of them before I will properly wash them. And my living room is usually kinda of a mess with things being thrown together into a heap that is then moved either to the armchair, or if I need that, to the bed :V However, when a friend visits, I always clean up. Especially if it's a girl. As such, I like inviting people over when the apartment looks bad because it gives me an incentive to clean up :V I hope I can get to a point where I get more organized in that regard one day, because I definitely prefer living in a neat and clean place. --- Quote ---Would you consider yourself a role model for other people? --- End quote --- Totally! Wimps need to learn to bash some heads! Again though, this is a question I can answer with neither yes nor no. I certainly wouldn't want to be a role model for anyone when it comes to cleaning or not being lazy, as pointed out before. But when it comes to a positive outlook on live, not working oneself up over small things, enjoying what I have and treating others properly? I think I'm at least not doing a bad job in that regard. Whether it's enough to be a role model, that is a judgement I will leave to others. --- Quote from: Thumbs McTack on April 13, 2011, 02:02:19 PM ---I work as an actual librarian IRL. Does that get me any sort of credibility with you? --- End quote --- Definitely. I love libraries, the bigger and older they are, the better. And from that stems the idea that librarians can't be bad people :3 --- Quote ---I'm assuming that German is your first language; how hard was it for you to pick up English? --- End quote --- Assumption correct. I never had much trouble with English. It just worked for me, without having to study much. Playing English games (or mostly demos of games back then) helped me with seeing the language used and learning new vocabulary. I later chose English as an advanced course in my last years of school and scored good grades all throughout. After getting onto the internet using English became an everyday thing. By now I somedays use English more than German, mostly due to the boards and IRC. I sometimes can't even properly remember if I read things in English or German because using both languages has become natural by now. --- Quote ---What are your preferences in music? --- End quote --- This has varied a lot over the years. It's easier to say what I don't like, which is generally Rap/Hiphop and Techno. There's exceptions, but the majority of those genres doesn't appeal to me. I guess the stuff I listen to the most currently is anime-music, so J-Pop or -Rock (for example right now Toradora's Opening is playing on loop). And I like orchestral music (often from video games) a lot as well. Overall though, I think Rock and Classic music are my preferred types of music. --- Quote from: ♪ TheStupidOne ♫ on April 13, 2011, 02:41:45 PM ---Why do you let me fish you to near extinction? :ohdear: --- End quote --- Because eating fish can help you with being sick and hungry all the time. If you would stop being sick/hungry you wouldn't need fish and I wouldn't get extinct >:[ --- Quote from: Rou You Can on April 13, 2011, 03:01:22 PM ---How'd you end up getting into Touhou/MotK? --- End quote --- Let's see. If I recall correctly it started with playing Osu! (that Ouendan clone for PC), and liking a Touhou song on there. So I looked around for the song and eventually stumbled across a Touhou gameplay-vid. Intrigued I checked it out more. Then I wanted to find out how the gameplay worked, and ended up on the Wiki. And from there I found MotK. Looked like a neat place, so I joined, the rest is history. --- Quote ---Are the black fumes coming out of the library there to promote global warming so the earth ends up ruled by the fish? --- End quote --- I have no idea what you are talking about, Rou-tan~ --- Quote from: Sectimonious on April 13, 2011, 03:55:25 PM ---Which MotK member are you most likely to kidnap, for whatever reason? --- End quote --- Admit it, you are expecting me to answer "Gappy" now :V Wouldn't you like to know? Honestly, with all the people here I like I'd have to bring a big bus for the kidnappings. Half of the people in PSL, for one, and a good amount of others. For varying reasons. Some of them would be kidnapped so I could drag them around for some lessons in optimism and positive spirit :P --- Quote ---What countries have you visited? Which countries would you like to visit (assuming no time/money issues)? --- End quote --- I've visited Czech, Poland and Wales/England, those were all during school-trips. One and a half years ago I also visited Japan for three weeks, together with a friend. Planning to go there again next year once we are finished with uni. Countries I would like to visit if I had the money? Hmm, South East Asia (yes yes, that's not a country :V ) and possibly China, Australia, North America (USA as well as Canada), maybe some South America as well. Africa could be worth a trip (hi Pesco), Scotland as well (I will get you, Rou and Rin). And I am probably forgetting a ton of countries that could be interesting as well. If I had infinite ressources I'd probably systematically go everywhere, I love seeing new places, and especially experiencing their cultures. --- Quote from: Sanya S. Rurovyak on April 13, 2011, 03:59:25 PM ---Why did you never finish your NaNoWriMo novel? --- End quote --- Because I lost the feel for it and didn't have any ideas on how to continue. That I had to abandon NaNo in between because of stress didn't help there. I might go back to it one day, but currently I'm more interested in finishing up my Librarian-stories. --- Quote ---Of the works in PSL, how many of the total (looks to be over 300 or so, including the ones in Koakuma's) have you actually read? --- End quote --- Good question, at most 10% I suppose. And most of that was for the Fanworks Listing. Some stories I have read parts of, but then neglected following them (DRK for example). I've got a mental backlog of stories I still want to read, but as usual, I just can't bring myself to do it. |
