  • Yo. I'm a person, which means I'm made out of stardust or a concept equally as nauseating. I write, and draw and sing and boggle and bewilder, and do it all with great hair. I don't really answer personal questions - like country and name and all that bunk - because privacy is my jam. Anything else is okay by me, just so as long as its interesting as hell. My threshold for boredom scrapes the bottom of the Barrel of Tolerance.

    Wouldn't mind some friends, actually. Condition irrelevant, unless you're Bradley Cooper. If you are, please haunt someone else. I'm so done with you.
    Despite wanting friends, I'm reluctant to randomly post on people's profiles. Shyness. Not expected, is it? Envision a coy Ganondorf and you're probably closer to the real me than you realize.

    I'm not a very cutesy person. At all. But that's not to say that I don't like people who are. I'm actually despicably nice, I'll have you know. Ask anyone. Ask Ma!

    I don't listen to music with sparkles in it, I swear a bit, Star Wars is my religion and I want to wrestle with bears. I'm half in love with a northern Italian waitress and I keep injuring myself. Didn't use to floss. Have a preoccupation with drawing Chespins. Not diagnosed, but working on it.

    THE END

  • Hi. Some random questions;

    Favorite Star Wars film?
    Favorite color?
    Favorite food?
    Favorite thing about PC?

    The Last Jedi! I am blind to its flaws. Saw it in the cinema a small while ago - it threw me off completely, kept me guessing, totally riveted and I never liked my main man Kylo more. Great performances and effects. I felt like I could really connect with the characters more than other entries in the franchise, but that could just be my extreme movie-related empathy coming into play. And I really liked Rose Tico, which makes me an anomaly of universal proportions, because I thought that she was cute and endearing.

    But at first I literally thought I had walked into the wrong cinema - like I was watching a parody or something, like Space Balls. Took me about an hour to be convinced otherwise, lmao, but the illusion was damn funny while it lasted.

    Favourite colour keeps changing. I keep coming back to red, green and yellow, though. Out of those three... wait, screw those three! I'm going for a shimmery, pale gold this time around. Sort of like white gold? Always drawn to it. And silver! Oh god, I don't know anymore.

    Favourite food is Szechuan beef. Unutterably delicious.

    Favourite thing about PC is how its one of the few up-to-date forums, and how it's a rarity in terms of quality members. And it's size and numbers don't hurt. Crippled websites suck, huh?

    I felt like I gave very dull, unfabulous answers. Have a brilliant song as consolation:
    Spoiler:


    Guitar Hero, am I right? Good times.
     

    Nah

  • what are you the overlord of

    The Five Dominions of... Gonk. Okay, I made that up, but I suppose I'm the overlord of writing. It's the only thing I'm remotely good at. And not even that. Proof! Have a snippet:

    Spoiler:


    Otherwise, it's being polite. I'd love to be a pushy, raucous twat but the stitching of etiquette cannot be undone by will alone. And I have this terrible curse - whenever I socialise, people smile at me like I'm adorable....?! What a bloody insult! I'm a frickin' demigod!

    What sort of plays or musicals do you like?

    OooOOoh, an interesting question! And the answer to the second half of the question is anything relentless with backbone. Like you have a constant barrage of singing and dancing, but with a neat plot and lots of banter. Singin' in The Rain is a triumph, in that respect, but The King And I will be my favourite. I grew up with Yul Brynner. He's my north star in a world of... south stars. Mmm.

    I've only seen one live play in my life, which was more of a musical, really. That was a few years ago, an amateur production of Pinocchio, because I wanted to determine the calibre of the theatre company. I had crushing anxiety at the time, and I didn't start to enjoy myself until the second half when my company had left (they were hating it, lmao) and then I was cackling like the rest of them. I mean, it sucked, sure, but in a good way.

    So yes, I'm not the best authority on plays, but I have seen the movie Cat On A Hot Tin Roof and that's close enough, right? A masterpiece. I'm still musing over the sheer mendacity of everything... and how performances could possibly get more beautiful.

    Sorry I took so long to reply. I was writing. And trapped in someone's house with nothing to do but read the Bible so there you go.

    Agreed that Kylo is an interesting character the franchise has brought us.

    Have you gotten into any other sci-fi series?
    I don't listen to music with sparkles in it
    What do you listen to?

    Goodie! A visitor. Now I'm self-conscious and all of this talk about myself feels pretentious and weird. Great practice for being an actor.

    As to Kylo, certainly! And Orson Krennic was excellent, in my mind. An Australian villain - awesome. I want his cape desperately.

    For sci fi... does Red Dwarf count?
    It's fucking hilarious. My favourite comedy of all time, with great performances and a lot of imagination involved. And very quotable. "Lister to Red Dwarf. We have in our midst a complete smeg pot. Brains in the anal region. Chin absent, presumed missing. Genitalia small and inoffensive. Of no value or interest."

    I don't watch a lot of movie franchises, with Harry Potter and Star Wars being the exceptions. I've seen all of Back to the Future, but only a granny would call it a sci fi. I'm looking to watch all of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find them which will have 5 entries, I believe.

    Good question as to music! And my tastes are very broad, save country, dubstep, crappy pop and... lots of things. I've been listening to jazz all of my life, as well as classical music and classics, generally. My favourite composer is Tchaikovsky and my favourite jazz singer is Vince Jones. I aspire to be a musician and I'm going to be bloody brilliant at it. Going to have bagpipes and violins and electric guitars in every song. Jack Skellington vocals. Nosebleeding groupies. That sort of thing.

    Here are a few epic songs that I recommend:

    Reaper - Sia

    Feeling Electric - Parade of Lights

    Starlight - Muse

    Easy on the ears. A triumph, every one of them. I recommend Muse for the more acquired taste. It's unique, powerful and... lustful? His vocals are intoxicating. And Sia is a wonderful addition to the pop industry. Haven't listened to much Parade of Lights, but that one song is excellent for anyone who has ever been electrocuted. Like me.

  • You seem to be a really nice person. I saw that your signature and avatar seem to be Newt Scamander as well, so have you ever read Harry Potter?

    Danke, mein non-Fraulein! And my niceness is strictly inherited. Not much credit to me on that one, because I could have just as easily been a total smeghead. Which I sort of am...

    I've read the first book of Harry Potter and have seen all the films. Well, in a sense. I watched twenty minutes of Fantastic Beasts, and I'm about to watch the entire movie, so this Scamander thing was pre-emptive obsession. Also, the actor is one of my favourite human being's of all time. A true son of a gun if ever there was one.


    you type in a very poetic manner (for a better way of describing it)

    why is this? genuinely asking if it's just part of your online persona in general or something. :o

    Kinky scholar talk. Poetic, eh? Well, I'm a big writer and I watch a lot of films and series with high-end accents and high-end dialogue. This is going to sound weird, but I'm quite changeable and impressionable - things rub off very quickly. So all these years of all these influences has taken its toll. I read Murder on the Orient Express a few months ago and for about three days I was talking like flipping Poirot. Ditto To Kill A Mockingbird, and Tom Sawyer and anything remotely tinted in delivery. I could just as easily be anything else.

    I'm fairly equivocal in real life, but sometimes my blood sugar gets low and I'm reduced to monosyllabic grunts. And sometimes that does extend to online, so sometimes I'll probably say stuff like 'pikachu si the bescht', or simplify things generally. Minds run out of stamina. A sad fact but true.

    More questions! My ego is as ravenous as No Face.

  • I know you mentioned in VMs with me that you like 5SOS... but what other types of music stuff do you like? :O

    Oh, now you're in for it:

    Muse is certainly a favourite of mine, as well as Fitz & The Tantrums, Grace VanderWaal, Panic! At The Disco, Sia and... hrmm... not many artists, really, because I find them inconsistent. But I know a thousand and one solitary songs that will blow your mind.

    I listen to a lot of genres, excluding the repetitive ones, senseless noise (yes dubstep, I'm looking at you), old rock and country. Yeugh. I only listen to music I can dance too. It's sort of a requirement.

    Grew up on classical music and jazz, and my favourite jazz artist is Vince Jones. I'm bloody in love with that genre, but I don't actively seek it out. It's always in the background. And 80's music is fucking amazing. Dance Hall Days by Wang Chung and Dancing with Myself by Billy Idol are my favourite.

    Oh yeah! The Killers are exceptional. Check them out when your audio situation gets a little better, eh.

  • favorite movies? if you enjoy disney movies, what is your favorite disney movie?

    I've watched about, if not over, 450 movies during my lifetime - including hilariously crappy ones which I'd prefer to forget.

    My favourite of them all would be L?on: The Professional. I watched it back in August and it blew my mind in terms of... everything! It was a masterpiece with A-class performances and a very touching motif.

    From there, it's films like The King and I, The Last Jedi, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them and.... I completely forget the rest, but my favourite things are governed by the vibes they give off, so they're not necessarily flawless. The King and I, however, is.

    And yes, I seriously enjoy Disney movies. I like how lighthearted and feelgood they are. As to the second query, it'd be Lilo & Stitch or Ratatouille, then Alice in Wonderland and Mulan. Not very definitive, I know, but fickleness thou name is Homeskulled Kid. I also don't know how to use words like thou and thee and thy - a gaping hole in my education but easily rectified.

  • What are some TV/Movie characters you relate to? :O

    Brilliant question!

    I don't tend to relate to female characters very much, for some reason. Their trials and traits are somewhat of an enigma to me.

    Renton Thurston from Eureka Seven - the connection is probably the deepest I've ever had with a character. He's a medley of bashful and brave, is naive yet wise, has high expectations and doesn't cope with disappointment very well. He wants big responsibilities but tends to psyduck up a lot. Empathetic but can turn pretty cold.
    Spoiler:


    Stitch from Lilo and Stitch - he is temperamental, destructive, obnoxious and perhaps a bit misunderstood. He also hates getting splashed by water, so there's that. I've related to him for a very long time indeed.
    Spoiler:


    Hiccup from How To Train Your Dragon - I share in his uselessness, gawkiness and weird voice, but his sudden swing in competency... hrmm... not so much. I'm probably not a born leader - my general cluelessness to simple protocol is a big inhibitor, but good lord how I love it! 'Put that cup over there!' 'Make the tea!' 'Pat my head!'
    Spoiler:


    That was literally the only gif my tiny little mind could procure.
    There are thousands of other characters who capture the facets of my being, but I cannot think a single one. And none of them are women. Bizarre!
