I often can. But that's mostly because I think too much of it. Though, sometimes it may be more complicated that I actually realize. So it ends up being a very incomplete explanation. One that may even change over time.

How well are you handling maths without a calculator?

_confused_piplup_ October 18th, 2022 12:02 AM

A little bit above average, I would say. Calculating isn't part of my day at all. So, I don't really need it. At school we were often said not to use calculators, so yeah that's kinda the deal. I noticed that a lot of people struggle, I am so and so, but mainly because I don't need to calculate. When I had to, I was ok, I guess a little bit above average. I remember being the one calculating the damages in you gi oh battles lol

What's the weirdest dream you have ever had?

ZeoStar October 18th, 2022 8:43 AM

I came home and crashed on our couch. Dreamed my grandmother was hovering the couch in a glowing angelic form. Woke up and found out she had passed away.

How would you order the following Pokemon from favorite to least?

Tauros
Stoutland
Lapras
Charizard
Mudsale
Sharpedo
Machamp

ReKoil October 18th, 2022 10:30 AM

Lapras - at the top ofc!
Stoutland - good boi!
Mudsale - Nice horse mon, albeit not the best one.
Machamp - used to not like it, but the Machamp I have in Legends has made it grow on me immensely.
Tauros - Pretty good even if kinda outclassed nowadays.
Sharpedo - meh. Hated it at one point due to IoA, but I've mellowed out on it again and am kinda indifferent on it.
Charizard - liked it once. Kinda dislike it nowadays.

Have you ever bought groceries online or do you go to the store/supermarket?

_confused_piplup_ October 18th, 2022 1:06 PM

Nice question. Nope, I have never bought groceries online yet, but I might get there quite soon.
I am developing a passion for tea and it looks like some online shops are nice and convenient enough to make me try!

Do you believe in life after death?

Megan October 18th, 2022 8:06 PM

When I'm dead others will still live. But what happens to me I don't know and don't want to hazard a guess. At least I'm pretty sure the universe has some sort of use for me after my demise. But in what shape or form, idk.

If you had to choose between every religion ever created: which one would you pick for yourself?

StCooler October 19th, 2022 5:35 AM

I have always loved the chaotic-neutral aspect of the gods in ancient Greek religion so I may probably choose this one for me.

Watch this:
Spoiler:

The guy said he didn't know the guy in blue; do you think it's true?

ZeoStar October 19th, 2022 7:03 AM

I would like to say yes. I don't like thinking everything is staged. It takes the magic away from things like this.

Staraptor is charging at with you with Brave Bird. What are you going to shield yourself with?

ReKoil October 19th, 2022 10:48 AM

I'll just chuck the nearest Metapod at it...

Probably a big boulder or a sturdy tree.

What OS do you have on your computer?

Megan October 19th, 2022 8:33 PM

Arch Linux. It's worked out for me for the last ten years so far.

Would you like to try out a different operating system in the future and if so: which one?

_confused_piplup_ October 20th, 2022 2:12 AM

Arch Linux didn't work for me lol. It broke too easily. I was updating something and then it all went black. I managed to chroot or something and managed to fix it. I was a bit worried but not too much as I understood what was going on. Anyway, I just don't think it's worth it.
I have tried many distros and despite not being in the computer science world anymore I still like trying Linux distros and I am quite an affectionate user, even if sometimes it's just underperforming tbh.
I tried KDE Neon, OpenSuse, Debian, Mint, Arch, Kali. and now I have MXLinux which for now, despite some problems, seems to be the most performing.
I want to try several distros, which include: Kubuntu, Manjaro, Fedora and some others.
I can't live without Plasma, so that makes the list a lot shorter lol.

What's a hobby you'd like to pick up?

ReKoil October 20th, 2022 9:47 AM

The ones I don't really have time for atm? =P
Ministeck/Lego & drawing stuff =)

Can't really think of any new hobbies I'd want to try atm.

What's your favorite movie or TV show?

StCooler October 20th, 2022 5:35 PM

Favourite TV show: Sons of Anarchy (close second: The Shield).
Favourite movie: honestly I don't know. Let's say the number of times I saw a movie reflects how much I love it: I have watched Man of Steel probably 4 times maybe (?), The Dark Knight Rises 4 times also, Pacific Rim 3 times. Also I LOVED The Batman, I watched it twice, once on my flight to Europe and once on my flight back to Canada lol.


Remember your self from 10 years ago. Have you evolved in terms of music tastes?

Megan October 20th, 2022 8:16 PM

Nope, not at all. Well, I am kinda sick of stuff I hear back then but that's mostly because I heard it too many times. But the genre I still like.

What's some music you listened to during your childhood?

_confused_piplup_ October 20th, 2022 10:41 PM

Well, that's a nice question because despite I am relatively young, it still makes me remember how much listening to music changed with years.
In fact back then the only way was to listen to music on the radio and on the CDs.
I have perfect memory of the first song I ever fell in love with: Love Today by Mika. I was obsessed lol. Actually, I still love it nowadays ahah. Well, anyway I remember that my parents bought my a cd player and a couple of CDs with some songs. Among them, there was Love Today. Totally crazy how I fell in love with a song I couldn't understand and that I sang only replicating the sounds lol. I could remember that it still transmitted me emotions, despite I didn't know the meaning of the song. That's the power of music, I guess.
So, I mostly listened to CD music. Some of my favourite were: Umbrella, Shut up and Drive, Wake up call, Song for Mutya, With every heart bit.
I liked them all.
Then, I remember I fell in love with another song. It was All the Lovers by Kylie Minogue.
I remember buying a MP3 at some point and getting this song on it. I was like in elementary school. During that time I remember listening to some classical music too because we had a Bach's brandenburg concertos CD.


What's your currently favourite song?

ReKoil October 21st, 2022 12:37 PM

O gawd... why is that Crab Rave cover by RichaadEB the first to come to mind...
... though it technically doesn't have any signing, should that be a problem....
I'll go with his 'Dragonforce - Through the Fire and Flames' Cover then, which also features Jonathan Young.

Are there any covers of songs you think are better than the original?

Megan October 21st, 2022 11:08 PM

Not that I recall. There have been some remixes of video game music that I think were pretty good and arguably better than the original.

Do you still pictures or other things you made when you were a kid?

_confused_piplup_ October 22nd, 2022 12:24 AM

I mainly have the work done in school or the manual projects we made during the Christmas/Easter period. Yeah, I have some of those.
Actually, I like keeping the work I used to do at school. This or the other summer, I don't really remember, my mom and I found this workbook where we wrote poetries. I have always loved writing and I loved poetries. Each Saturday, during the last two hours, we had this class. It was actually still part of the "Italian" class, but the Saturday was dedicated to poetry.
So, I read this old workbook and I was kinda shocked that I had written that stuff lol. I was like: "hey, how could I know this specific word back then?".
Exercise makes better lol. But yeah, I was impressed by myself lol. Same went for some drawings. Idk if I should be worried about my memory or not, but I kinda forgot some of the things I made back then. I remember frequently asking my mom: "Did I do that? Are you sure?"
So, yeah I mainly keep the old stuff for this reason lol. I kinda like remembering good things and especially the small things I kinda forgot.
Also, sorry for always making these posts so long hehe.


What really makes you angry?

StCooler October 22nd, 2022 2:50 AM

I don't mind lies except when it's about accusing me of something I didn't do.
Spoiler:

And many things about my country but I won't cite anything, let's keep it unpolitical.
Spoiler:

And many things in LoL: losing a game because one of my mates was feeding, facing someone way better than me, stealth, Shaco, my teammates forcing me to play for 40 minutes when we have already lost at minute 5, my teammates forcing me to play when we have someone AFK.



What really makes you happy?

ReKoil October 22nd, 2022 9:29 AM

I'll let you know if I ever find out.

Finishing something, like a drawing I guess? Doesn't really make me ecstatic or something, but can't really come up with anything =P

Do you redecorate your room often or have you kept it the same for a long time?

Megan October 22nd, 2022 8:38 PM

I mostly keep it the same. No clue what to even up in it, tbh. ^^"

How was your day?

Fact Checking Gardevoir October 23rd, 2022 12:12 PM

Busy with 195 visitors, most of them in a span of 5 hours!

What will your next video game be ?

StCooler October 23rd, 2022 3:44 PM

Elden Ring or some JRPG I've bought recently. (Still haven't bought Elden Ring yet, I'm waiting for Thanksgiving's Steam sale :P )
LoL keeps me busy in terms of gaming but I need a game to relax too, sometimes I want something casual ^^"

Is there some music band that you've listened for years and that didn't disappoint you?

Megan October 23rd, 2022 8:15 PM

I don't really listen to bands all that much. A couple years ago I listened to King Crimson for a while and liked what I heard. But I also never listened to their "newer" albums from when they started becoming mainstream.
I just kinda grew out of it over time, I guess. ^^"

What's a food from your country that you really like?

ReKoil October 24th, 2022 8:31 AM



They're a pain to eat with a fork, so I usually eat them with my hands and have to wash my hands afterward, but dang are they tasty 🤤
Also gotta check my nose afterward to check if any whipped cream didn't end up on it lol

Do you have a fixed nickname in video games or do you change it up regularly ?
