Storage. I like lots of apps.
Where is the help desk located? |
I don't know? What help desk are we talking about? Some sort of app? I suppose it depends on your phone manufacturer?
Do you skip meals? |
Lunch on workdays. Breakfast on weekends.
Mainly because I don't take breaks while working and I wake up late in the weekends rofl Have you ever started or participated in a protest? |
Nope.
Have you ever used a specific brand only to find later it was recalled? Quote:
|
many years ago sargento cheese was recalled but thankfully i never ate from the recalled package
have you ever broken a window before? |
hmmmm.... not that I recall.
Are there any movies you used to love that you now no longer like? |
Movies, no.
I'm thinking about other arts and medias but I don't find anything. Except Linkin Park, I used to be a big fan, and now I can't hear them XD I've become so numb, I can't feel you there... How long do you think your current computer will last? |
Hopefully a few years. I got it a couple weeks ago...buuuuuuut anything could happen.
Are there any movies your interested in watching that are releasing later in the year? |
Nope, I'm not a movie fan. There's a game that I'm looking forward to and that is Xenoblade 3, though.
Do you do workout? What's the toughest type of workout you do (if you do workout, anyway)? |
no but i really need to get back to it! cardio would be my main focus
do you have your own office at your job or wherever you do work? |
The world is my office :coolcat:
I mean... I work outside. So I guess that's a no =p Have you ever written any fanfiction for any games you've played? |
I've always written a lot, I have a big fanfiction for Yu-Gi-Oh! (you didn't said "videogames" so it counts as a game ^^).
I don't think I've made a fanfiction on videogames though. Did you make a backup of your data recently? You should!!! |
I occasionally push some stuff onto an external hard drive. I guess that counts as a backup? I'm not a huge fan of pushing stuff onto the cloud; even if it may be a lot more convenient.
I think the last time I saved some stuff was last week? I don't do too much on my PC anymore. I simply don't have the time and motivation so the amount of stuff I need to save is very slim. And most of it can still be found through other means. Do you create art? Doesn't matter how good or bad you may consider yourself to be. |
I've drawn some stuff, though I wouldn't call it art =p
Do you ever lose track of time completely while playing a videogame? |
Sadly no. I'm pretty active with checking the time.
What's your favorite kind of soup? |
I wouldn't say I have a favourite one. I like my father's carrot/pumpkin/potato soup, I like fish soup, I like gazpacho (Spanish cold soup), I also like Chinese soups with many ingredients.
What's the most complicated meal you've ever cooked, and how did it go? Quote:
|
Nothing fancy. Complicated for me just means anything I have lying around. Which is mostly just rice with something. And that something is whatever is in my fridge which is mostly not a lot. Maybe some sausages, rarely an egg, a ton of ketchup, maybe a tomato. I don't have much in my fridge. :(
Do you read books? |
I used to. Kinda been having trouble finding time for it last several years =p
Have you ever listened to an audio book? |
At some point most likely, but I can't recall specifics.
Do you prefer to scroll through every thread and read the answers or simply write a post? |
I usually read everything that's been posted after my last post to give likes to the worthy :coolcat:
What do you think about Youtube's policy these last years (regarding copyright and censorship)? |
I haven't been paying much attention. I can understand how it afflicts those making a living from YouTube, but for a casual browser it's just "off to the next video".
How often do you wear hats? |
Only when it's cold outside which is more of a seasonal thing. I don't know how often that it, though. Like, during Winter when I go to work early in the morning then I'll wear a beany (do these count as hats?). Tbh. when I hear the word "hat" I always think of something like a top hat. And I never wear these things.
Are you pro or contra DST (Daylight Saving Time)? |
I consider it a minor inconvenience. So it doesn't really matter to me if it stays or goes.
Guess I'll go with pro then, since if there's no need for me to see it disappear, it might as well stay ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ When's the last time you went to go see a movie in a cinema/movie theater? |
It was in October maybe lol. It was the last 007's movie.
What's your fav non pokemon game? |
I wouldn't even classify any of the Pokemon games as a favorite, so within the JRPG genre I would say the first two Paper Mario titles, Xenoblade I, and Dragon Quest XI. Outside of that I liked Fallout 3 and BioShock Infinite quite a lot.
What was the most story heavy game you've played? |
The Witcher 2 I think. Or Tales of Vesperia. Or Final Fantasy 13, or 13-2. Define "story-heavy"? ^^"
You inherit 2 million € from an aunt that you've never known, and this money is legit. What do you do with that money? |
buy a house, buy a car, throw a portion into savings, then hand the rest off to charity
you were given an honorary doctorate in mathematics yet math is your worst subject. do you accept the degree or turn it down? |
I'm going to turn it down. Math actually is my worst subject.
Which is your preferred internet browser? |
Outside of that small portion early in my computing years I've always used Firefox. I've tried a bunch of others but none of them really convinced me to switch. I'd actually like to find something better. But with everything just being Chrome these days and me really not wanting to buy into that one in particular I'm kind of stuck with Firefox at the moment. :(
Do you own a car? |
Nope, my parents do and I use my mom's one when I am back home. I can drive both and sometimes I also use my dad's one, but since he works kinda all day, in the afternoon I find myself using my mom's one more. My dad's one is bigger btw.
Do you play any instrument? |
Nope. Never really tried either tbh.
Have you ever had to contact a company's customer service to resolve something? |
Yep. My phone issues last year. Took about 5 hours and 4 different agents. I figured "I'm going to be here a while" so I went and sat outside.
If you could write a book about any topic and have it published, what would you pick? |
Hmmm, I guess zoology. Despite my degree in psychology, I feel like I would have a hard time and much studies going on while writing a good one. So, I would choose zoology which is a topic that really interests me and always did. The topic in particular can be any tbh, but I would focus on animal behaviour.
If you had to listen to only one music genre, which one would it be? |
I'm only listening to video game music. So there isn't really much to say. ^^"
Have you ever had interest in DnD? |
Nope, in general I am not interested in games that are not videogames.
Do you eat vegetables everyday? |
yes, I eat salad everyday. Rarely, I eat potatoes instead.
What's your favorite food? |
Edit! Piplup used Aqua Jet! It was super effective!
Everyday? Maybe not.. but that’s just because I have poor eating patterns and seldom eat more than one meal a day. I definitely love veggies though! Way preferred over other options, haha. Favorite food? Man, I don’t know where to begin. I ate some food in Spain that was 11/10 will never forget. But I’ve been lucky enough to sample some truly wonder, gourmet, exotic foods being so close to NYC too! I don’t think I could narrow it down to a single dish.. sorry! What’s your typical reaction to spam callers? |
sometimes i try to see if i can waste their time, but mostly it's just hang up
what's the most adventurous thing you've ever done? |
Can't really think of anything other than hiking in a couple national parks I've been to.
I'm not that adventurous =p Do you have a preferred brand for desktops or laptops? |
Anything that isn't a chromebook.
Do you have any interest in history? |
Not even close. I have always hated the subject. Always studied it for school tho. Happy i have nothing to do with it now lol
Have you ever experienced some paranormal phenomena or someone telling you about one happened to them? |
One colleague of mine apparently had a near death experience. That's all I can think of.
How many shiny Pokémons have you found in your playthroughs? (not counting Shiny hunting) |
Just organically stumbled upon in the grass, right? Like not intentionally looking or scheduling through Raids or anything? Hmmm, probably 4.. maybe 5 in my entire lifetime of playing. My most recent was a shiny Corviknight. My first was a shiny Togepi (or possibly Beedrill but that is an old, loooong story and I cannot confirm if it was real or a dream).
How many movies/TV shows exist in your "totally, definitely going to watch soon and not completely forget about" list? |
I had like one movie in there but I already watched it. So currently that list is empty. I don't feel like I'm missing out, though. Most movies these days seem to be exclusively Superhero movies that rehash the same ideas over and over again. <_<
Do you have a "big project" that you're currently working on in your free time? |
Not really. I still have a bunch of Lego, nanoblock and ministeck boxes lying around, but only a couple of them would qualify as a 'big project'. Needless to say they will take a while and atm I just can't find enough time to do any =p
Have you ever logged into PC from your mobile? |
very often, actually
How many languages do you speak? |
Currently two, but I used to speak three :(
And if you count programming languages, add probably half a dozen. How many computers do you have right now? |
One laptop that works and two older ones that don't. Getting rid of old unusable tech stuff always feels like a hassle. Can't just throw them into a container like you can with old paper and regular trash...
Do you have a hobby corner or does it blend in with the rest of your furniture? |
Pretty much blends with rest of my furniture. I have a place for Switch games which is kinda there only for those, but if I think about the rest, I have a Japanese workbook that is in between my uni books and even all of my DS games are in a drawer with many other things tho. Not really playing the violin right now, but when I used to I had it in the wardrobe lol and music sheets were in between papers I used to write stuff and exercise, especially for school and uni.
What's your biggest hobby? |
Probably playing videogames. Though I've also spent a big amount of time on buildable stuff from Lego/nanoblock etc.
How many pairs of shoes do you own? |
Three with me right now (including a pair of boots for the snow) + maybe three others in my home country lol. Not many :S
Have you already listened to the same song again and again for several hours/days/weeks? Quote:
|
Not repeatedly, but there have been songs that stuck around in my more popular playlists for a couple months before I got tired of them
What's a hobby you gave up but really want to bring back at some point? Quote:
|
Well I gave up Basketball a long time ago.
I'm not really interested in picking it back up, so I guess the answer is none? 😅 Edit: oh wait. I used to write short stories back in highschool lol It's so long ago I completely forgot xD Guess I wouldn't mind picking it back up, though I'm not that enthusiastic about it either. Do you store things neatly in storage bins/containers/whatever or do you just leave stuff lying around your house? I'm a mix of both atm rofl |
We try to keep things neat.
What's a popular band/artist you just can't get into? |
Ed Sheeran.
Do you plan ahead of time what movie you'll watch or do you wing it on selection? |
I plan everything ahead!
By the way it's hard to get your friends to go to the movies with you if you don't plan the movie you're going to see ^^ What do you think makes Pokémon so special? |
Many people grew up with it and thanks to the technological advances from the last 30+ years it's easier to connect with other people on the series. There's more of an incentive for you to write fanfics and you are able to play around with the games and their code because other people can see what you're doing and they too can try these things out. That way engagement kept being high.
I think there's a lot to argue about whether the series dropped in quality or if it's just people bouncing ideas off of each other that played around with the series concept to a point where people kinda added way more things and changed stuff so that it gets very obvious when the series creators can't keep up the pace and get criticized for lagging behind. What's your favorite Nintendo game (the company, not the NES)? |
I like both of the original Paper Mario games (I and II). Lost interest after those, but the first two would be my favorites from Nintendo.
Do you have strong reflexes? |
Not particularly. Though my hands and arms will respond if I drop something, often before I even realize it. Pretty much the only situation though.
Do you recycle? |
I try not to recycle my jokes, but I do recycle my rubbish.
Actually using two bins instead of one is not a big effort. How many people do you see in one day? |
Well, my coworkers and a ton of people during commute. I don't know how many that entails, though. That's like 4+x with x being the amount of roandom people on the street. Add more tot that if people in videos count. I'm not a huge fan of this "parasocial relationship" stuff so I don't particularly like people showing their face off. But I can't exactly change the fact that they're doing it...
Hope that counts as an answer! Have you ever made a video? |
Gameplay videos, yes. I recorded a full playthrough for 2 or 3 games.
Videos with me in them? no. I avoid cameras as much as possible =D I've shot a couple random videos on occasion of just random stuff too. I left those on my camera though. Have you ever cosplayed? |
No, I don't see the point.
When was the last time you made a PowerPoint presentation? |
I was forced to use Powerpoint in one of my exam preparation classes. But that was only during a school lesson. I never actually did a proper Powerpoint presentation. Last time I did a proper presentation I prepared some PDF slides using pandoc, instead. I definitely did not force myself to write them in LaTeX, as opposed to my big project document. ^^"
Had you ever had to deal with the police? |
Twice.
Once for sitting on an escalator. Second time was for not wearing a seatbelt. How many hours of sleep do you usually get? |
around 6 hours, usually a little under.
Do you believe in some form of afterlife? |
Often the belief is a nice way to keep sanity in what feels like a pointless life, so yes.
What is an old video game that you think has aged well? |
Skyrim :DDDDDDD
I'd say, Pokémon games on GBA maybe? Probably other GBA games too. What videogames have you played the most? Quote:
Funfact: if I want to merge several PDFs, I use LaTeX lol |
I think I capped the time of Pokemon X, Gold and maybe Blue at some point? It really makes it hard to tell which one it was, especially since those save files don't exist anymore. I also invested a lot into Terraria at some point. Skyrim I actually didn't play too much, only about 60 hours I believe. I might have spent more time with Morrowind but I don't know how much exactly.
Do you keep track of your weight? |
A little indifferent. I've been 130lbs for a while. I'm fine with this.
At one point during highschool I only ate fast food for a year. Baconzillas for lunch and Chicken buckets for dinner. I got noticeably heavier, possibly around 160-170 lbs. I stopped doing this though. It's very unhealthy. What is your main form of transportation? |
My Bicycle =3
Has your taste in music changed throughout your life or has it remained the same throughout? |
The core has remained the same: metal and epic music. Now I listen to a bit of electronic music, some piano stuff, and some shameful stuff. And now I can't hear Linkin Park while I used to be a fan :')
When was the last time you've gone for a walk? |
Does going to work count? because that's what I just did. And it's what I do every workday. <_<
Is there something you really want to accomplish over the next couple years? |
Well it would be nice if my shiny hunting related goals would be accomplished by then.... but that's not really something major lol
So I guess there isn't ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ If you could give a speech that would be broadcast everywhere in the world, what would it be about? =3 |
"Why mathematics is beautiful"
"Why mathematics is useless" "Why mathematics is useless and it shouldn't matter" "Why mathematics isn't for everyone and it shouldn't matter" "Love one another" "Love one another ffs" "What's wrong with Pokémon" "How to improve League of Legends" "Why the world needs another Elder Scrolls" Probably "how to eat better, and debuking of fitness myths". Other topics I could tackle are probably too "rational" for people lol. Assume that, tomorrow, we learn that there are life forms on Mars. How would you react? |
"Ok, moving on." Yeah, I don't really care as much unless it directly impacts me. And I don't see that happen.
If people created teleporting devices: would you use them or would you stick to traditional methods? |
I'd probably end up using traditional methods. I imagine such a device would end up only for the top 1% of the world. If I could, absolutely. The convenience sounds amazing.
What's a subject that shouldn't be joked about? |
People's dreams of what/who they want to be. No matter how unrealistic, joking about them is just plain rude imo
Do you enjoy grinding for something in a videogame? |
Admittedly? No. I'm not that strong :')
How often does your phone's autocorrect actually intervene and does it really do what it's meant to do? |
Too much wrong. I don't like autocorrect.
What's your favorite kind of flower? |
I like flowers, but I don't know many of them. My fav is the Iris flower. The color is incredibly deep, I love it.
Would you like to be famous someday? |
I'd like to be loved someday, in a way that is meaningful to me. I couldn't care less about popularity or doing something that people will always remember or something. Being famous just means more stress than necessary.
What's some exotic food you enjoy eating? |
Chicken Yakitori & Chicken Satay.
I have yet to find a curry dish I dislike, but just to be safe I'll just say most Curries =p Pretty much everything except for the fish section at my local Chinese restaurant 🤤 (I'm not that fond of prawn dishes). I do have to say that I'm pretty lucky to have such a good one nearby. I have been to several others before settling on the closest one as my go to, but their food just doesn't compare. Do you look at leaks for a game you're looking forward to? |
It's tempting. Often I'll settle for the trailer.
How long does your phone battery usually last from a full charge? |
I think around 2 days with my usual use of a smartphone (which is basically inexistent).
How old were you when you got your first smartphone? |
Around 20 years maybe? My first phone I got was a dumbphone during 8th grade I believe (which for the longest time was the only one that I didn't ge handed down from somebody else). Then I got another one a couple years later. My first smartphone was a Sony Ericsson that I got during university. I've used this one up until this year if you can believe that. It actually still works, batteries and all, but since they took down all the 3G networks it's become very unreliable.
I had like another Sony Xperia which I got but never used for phone stuff. It basically became a sort of music player. This year is actually the first time I got a smartphone for myself that I actually use for what it was designed for. Did you ever live in a place with bad internet connection? |
lol yes. Where I live wi-fi wasn't a thing until 2014 maybe. We had Internet before tho lol. I think the first time I used Internet was when I was 7 or 8 on our old computer. I remember that I used to email a classmate of mine lol. However, Internet has never been good and it still isn't, even now. That's because I live in a very small town, but I guess it's kinda common in Italy. However it's not like there are very big cities around where I live, but just one "major city" (around 40000 people), so yeah the signal is quite good but not fast. Real bad Internet connection was back in 2013, when I bought a wi-fi router for home that I needed for my games and my phone. From 2013 to 2015 at least, it's been hell. It's kinda surreal because 90% of the times it didn't work. If you were atheist, you instantly started believing in a God or something when it actually worked lol.
How old were you when you used Internet for the first time? |
We already had a computer with internet in the house when I was born. I have a blurry early memory of smashing random letters into the URL because I wanted to "help dad".
Do you often hold the door open for others? |
Very rarely, but that's more because I don't really have anyone to hold the door open for and rarely go to places that have both people and doors =p
What's your favorite drink? |
I remember a drink I had in a Hard Rock Café, I think it was called "Berrylicious", it was a soft cocktail or smoothie with berries 🤤
But I had it only once. I drink coconut water on a daily basis too ^^ Have you ever met someone famous? (including Youtubers / streamers or any artist whose work you like) |
Various interactions include Robert Rhoode, Betty White, Ron Simmons, Lita.
Aside from Betty White it's all pro wrestlers. How long does it take you to fall asleep (generally)? |
It ranges from half an hour to like an hour on the initial. When I wake up in the middle of the night there may be the occasional two hour period where I can't go back to sleep. It does sometimes happen pretty quickly. On other times I just have my neighbors being obnoxious in which case the night is pretty much over and I won't see any sleep anymore.
Do you sleep with plushies? |
Like in the bed with me? no.
In the same room. yes. The eeveelutions are there on a side table. watching over me. protecting me. slowly turning me into one of them How long does it take you to come up with a question for this game? =3 It varies for me, anywhere from like instantly to up to 15 minutes =p |
Under two minutes. If I catch myself taking longer I'll spout out a very stupid question.
What's your favorite smell? |
The smell of pizza :)
I'm waiting for Christian Dior to sell a "Le Parfum - The Pizza Fragrance". Have you ever had a situation in which you should be upset or very annoyed, but found it funny instead? Spoiler:
|
Well.. not myself, but I've seen my nieces and nephews do a bunch of silly things over the years that fit this xD
Have you ever snowboarded? (If not, would you want to try it some day?) |
Nope. Wouldn't be totally opposed, but must learn more first.
Do you know how to play Chess? |
I know the general rules but have no idea about tactics and strategies. I'm also not particularly competitive nor am I willing to learn tons of moves and stuff just to get decent at it.
Do you play to win or play for the sake of playing? |
It truly depends, because it depends on the mood, but in general I would say for the sake of playing. Sometimes when friends wanna play a game at which I suck (smash), I play but like I already know I'll loose really badly but I am still happy because I am sharing a nice moment with friends, so like yeah it's still fun. I would say that some games get my attention and obviously I play to win in those cases, but even if I loose I kinda never get truly angry and instead I learn and try to understand what went wrong. I think that in this case "playing to win" and "playing for the sake of playing" kinda become the same thing, because playing is the process of learning in some games and winning is just the ultimate result of what you learnt before. I might have gone too far into this lol.
Do you consider yourself a competitive person? |
Nope.
I also dislike any competitive aspects in games and highly prefer co-op games. How would you spend a day off during the Summer? |
| All times are GMT -8. The time now is 6:47 AM. |
