The rules are..

I will be putting forth more questions as the thread continues, so play along with me and let's learn something about you!

Do you have any siblings, and who are they and what do they do?

Do you get along with your siblings?

What nicknames did you have as a kid?

Did you like to build "forts" out of blankets in the living room when you were a kid?

When you were little, hat did you want to be when you grew up?

How has that changed? Or has it?

What is your favorite thing to do? Why?

What is your favorite holiday? Why?

Do you get along with your siblings?
No.

What nicknames did you have as a kid?
None really.

Did you like to build "forts" out of blankets in the living room when you were a kid?
Of course!

When you were little, hat did you want to be when you grew up?
An artist or animator. Or a marine biologist. I'm actually now thinking of doing some humanitarian OR environmentalist wise on the side.

How has that changed? Or has it?
It hasn't really.

What is your favorite thing to do? Why?
Art, because I like it and I get money for it.

What is your favorite holiday? Why?
Halloween cause you get to dress up. ^.^ I like dressing up.

Do you get along with your siblings?
My brother, we get along okay I suppose. Step-siblings, wish they would fall of the face of the planet.

What nicknames did you have as a kid?
Just called by my last name a lot. Cain.

Did you like to build "forts" out of blankets in the living room when you were a kid?
Not in the living room, outside usually.

When you were little, what did you want to be when you grew up?
Famous.

How has that changed? Or has it?
It has. I'm not famous, nor would I want to be, would hate everyone to watch every move I made and plaster horrid pictures of me on the cover of a tabloid.

What is your favorite thing to do? Why?
Watercolor. Though I don't do it as often as I would like. I find it relaxing, and I'm usually very happy with the end result.

What is your favorite holiday? Why?
Halloween. It's a day when you can be anyone or anything you like and it's all good.

Added a reason why

Little brother. He plays games, sports...occasionally posts here.

Do you get along with your siblings?

After a fashion =p

What nicknames did you have as a kid?

Hmm...don't think I had any, really.

Did you like to build "forts" out of blankets in the living room when you were a kid?

Yes.

When you were little, hat did you want to be when you grew up?

Pirate-cowboy-astronaut-knight-samurai, same as every little boy...and, occasionally, a writer.

How has that changed? Or has it?

I've dropped all but but writer and knight.

What is your favorite thing to do? Why?

I dunno. There are things that I like to do but if they were my favorite things I suppose I would do them more often.

What is your favorite holiday? Why?

Christmas used to be. I'm not Christian, but it used to be so wonderful getting up early in the morning and waddling downstairs in my pajamas, finding so many amazing things that hadn't been there the night before. Despite the odss, I managed to hold onto my belief in Santa till I was 13 and my dad commented on how much trouble he had gone to to get a gift...which had been marked delievered by Santa. The rational defeat of that belief wouldn't have been so much, but that somehow destroyed the spirit of it too.

I was also very much a fan of Halloween...but in recent years I have missed going trick-or-treating, or only given it a half-hearted go...although last year I did get a nice, if random, costume to wear to school.

N/A

Curly and Uzi are the only two that come easily to mind.

Hell ya. I used to build a kind of landing cushion below the stairs and slide down the stairs on a sleeping bag into them. It was fun.

An astronomer. I always loved thinking about how the stars interacted to form galaxies and how the properties of physics made the world go round as it were. I liked black holes in paticular. I was a very odd five year old.

I've found that i'm much more proficient in interpersonal communication than i am in science and math. That's the long way of saying i like the sound of my own voice. So i've changed paths to persue either a Psychology or a Philosophy career. I'm not sure which of those fields i wanna specialize in yet, but i'm pretty sure that i wanna end up teaching the subject i specialize in.

Talk with people. It's somthing that i enjoy doing immensly and can do for long periods of time on just about any subject. I'm of the opinion that in this age of wired communication that the idea of personal contact between people is being devalued. I think that this is a damn shame because there's somthing about sitting down with someone and allowing a conversation to flow and evolve that is impossible over the net or phone.

There really aren't any holidays that stand up and say, "Enjoy me!" in my life. They all just kinda blend together and are mostly noted because i get out of school on those days. If you put a gun to my head and made me choose, i'd say New Years Eve/Day though.

Do you get along with your siblings?
Eh, sometimes yes, sometimes no.

What nicknames did you have as a kid?
Tommy Boy, Tom the Bomb, Thomas the Tank Engine...

Did you like to build "forts" out of blankets in the living room when you were a kid?
All the time.

When you were little, hat did you want to be when you grew up?
Didn't know then, don't know now...

How has that changed? Or has it?
It hasn't.

What is your favorite thing to do? Why?
Toss up between playing video games and drawing because they're the two things I'm marginally good at.

What is your favorite holiday? Why?
Halloween because it's my birthday too.

Nae was naked while typing this:

Do you have any siblings, and who are they and what do they do?

Yes, I have an older brother and he's a lawyer.

Do you get along with your siblings?

Yes and no, I haven't seen him in a year but normally we get along just fine.

Android, Andross, Andy Ray, Alek, Alex, Elf boy, Elfie, lil one, lil Elf, I think that's about it.

Did you like to build "forts" out of blankets in the living room when you were a kid?

Still do!

When you were little, what did you want to be when you grew up?

brain surgeon

How has that changed? Or has it?

Ju-jutsu, I just enjoy fighting with my friends/classmates

What is your favorite holiday? Why?

Halloween, mostly because I get to dress up.

Do you get along with your siblings?

Yes and no.

What nicknames did you have as a kid?

"JohnJohn", because they always had to call me twice.

Did you like to build "forts" out of blankets in the living room when you were a kid?

We built a cool snow fort and had it collapse on us, does that count?

When you were little, hat did you want to be when you grew up?

Video game tester.

How has that changed? Or has it?

I'd like to become a massage therapist now (I have some serious talent for it), but that doesn't mean I can't play video games for post-market testing, haha

What is your favorite thing to do? Why?

Relax.

What is your favorite holiday? Why?

4th of July, because I always celebrate the birth of my country by blowing up a small part of it!

What nicknames did you have as a kid?
Ben, Benji, Bungee-man.

Did you like to build "forts" out of blankets in the living room when you were a kid?
Hell yeah, we used to take the mattresses and sheets from our beds and combine them to make the best damn fort you ever saw!

When you were little, (w)hat did you want to be when you grew up?
I wanted to be a lawyer because I thought you had to be one in order to make tons of money, be successful and happy.

How has that changed? Or has it?
I hate paper-pushing, and there are plenty of bad lawyers in the world already. Who's to say that I wouldn't be corrupted by the system? Now I'm looking into trade skills like diving and mechanical work.

What is your favorite thing to do? Why?
I love driving and sex almost equally. (Simple pleasures) I get more of an adrenaline rush from driving like I'm Mario Andretti, but sex has it's own charm. I like my women how I like my cars; Fast, nimble and responsive. TMI? (Remember ladies, change your oil every 3000 miles to minimize damage from lubricant breakdown.)

Whichever will get me out of work for that day.

not really, too much work.

When you were little, hat did you want to be when you grew up?
A lawyer.

How has that changed? Or has it?
Well I found out I didn't have the marks to enter into any law program except fo r the one I'm in now - Legal Office Administration. I also do massages on the side because it's fun and I'm good at it. My parents wanted me to be a massage therapist.

What is your favorite thing to do? Why?
Read. It lets me use my imagination, and in my job I don't get to do that a lot

What is your favorite holiday? Why?
New Years Eve, it's a time to start over new and forget the old shit.

2. Yes. I'd go through hell and highwater for my sis.

3. The closest thing I had was Stubby J. My dad used to be called Stubby, and he used to call me Stubby Jr. I mentioned this to some people in grade school, and they coolified it into Stubby J.

4. I don't remember.

5. A waiter. I swear to god. I don't remember why, but for some reason I thought it would be the greatest job ever.

6. It has. Now I don't know what I want to do.

7. Play video games I don't really know why.

8. The Fourth of July! Hamburgers, baseball, and explosions all day long... *sniff* God bless America.

Think back to being a small child. What town do you remember first in your mind?
Snoqualmie Pass. It seems my life revolves around that mountain town

What was that place like?
Sleepy, (kind of) remote. Really managed to capture the small town feel while being only an hour from Seattle

Where do you live now?
Only 45 minutes from that town... sheesh... I need to get out more!

Describe your favorite building in your area.
A small wooden building with large glass garage doors as a front (may have been a fire station at one point? But it is kind of small for that). Tile flooring with drains... said building has the best BBQ I have ever tasted

Does your region have any special traditions that would be different than other places?
Does oversaturation of starbucks shops count?

If so, what are they?
Starbucks sucks lols.

What is your favorite snack food?
A BLT sandwich

Soda or pop? Sodapop or Coke?
Pop.

Pocky?
Chocolate, and by the bucket.

Pez?
Have not had any in a long time, so okies, I guess ^-^

If the ice cream man came to your street right now and you had $3, what would you buy from him?
That choclate hagen daz bar with the nuts in the shell

Describe what you would consider a romantic date.
A hearty steak and taters meal (seeing who can build the best gravy fort out of the potatoes ), topped off with pelting each other with snowballs. Followed by "Wow, our clothes sure got soaked! How about we take them off and jump in the hot tub?"

What was that place like?
It was a farm we lived on, I was like.. five or so.

Where do you live now?
Ogden, Utah.

Describe your favorite building in your area.
The Eccels building. It's an old house that has been restored and is now an arts center.

Does your region have any special traditions that would be different than other places?
Cherry Days.

If so, what are they?
Mid July.. I think, when the rodeo comes as well. It's some huge fruit celebration. For the harvest time I think. I just know the cherries are plentiful and good for that time.

What is your favorite snack food?
Sunflower Seeds.

Soda or pop? Sodapop or Coke?
Soda.

Pocky?
Yes.

Pez?
Is okay. I liked it a lot as a kid.

If the ice cream man came to your street right now and you had $3, what would you buy from him?
I'd take my three dollars and go buy a quart of ice cream at the store instead.

Describe what you would consider a romantic date.
Uh... I don't know, I've not had to date in a long long time, and, I'm not very romantic really.

What was that place like?
My first memory? Snow. Lots of it. Everything was covered with snow, smelled like fresh snow, and the skies were perfectly clear. I can clearly see my brother and I suited up in our winter outfits, mittens, scarfs and all, rolling around in the snow for the first time and having an excellent time. Apologies if this doesn't totally answer the question, but it's my first memory of the city. Oh, and the corn tower. (Bummey knows what I'm talking about)

Where do you live now?
Rochester, MN

Describe your favorite building in your area.
Oh geez. Hmm, I really don't have a favorite building per se, although I'm a huge fan of the Mayo Clinic buildings in general. I love the artwork, the sculptures, etc. Often times I will just head to downtown just to gaze at the magnificent works they have displayed.

Does your region have any special traditions that would be different than other places?
Um, well, there's always the Rochesterfest, which pretty much is when they close down part of downtown for food vendors or something. I don't know; I never go to it. When I was younger I was always out of town during this, so it's kind of a habit to just skip it nowadays when I am in town.

What is your favorite snack food?
Cheese Nips.

Soda or pop? Sodapop or Coke?
Pop.

Pocky?
Eh. It can be good, but I'm not OMG OBSESSED over it.

Pez?
Pez is sex.

If the ice cream man came to your street right now and you had $3, what would you buy from him?
An ice cream sundae. Those are good. But... ice cream trucks don't exist here.

Describe what you would consider a romantic date.
Well, I'm a boring person, so. Definitely a homecooked meal, a real meal, prepared by my significant other and I. With candles of course. Those are a must. An alternative would be a nice Italian restaurant. Afterwards, probably watch a movie together. Not at the theatres but at home, where we can snuggle on the couch, Because it's kind of hard to do that at a movie theatre. D: And there is no privacy!

What was that place like?
Same as it is now.. Small, but not too small.

Where do you live now?
Burlington

Describe your favorite building in your area.
Hmmm.. Probably...Ireland House. It scares the sh*t out of me

Does your region have any special traditions that would be different than other places?
Nope

If so, what are they?

What is your favorite snack food?
Um.....Toughy.. It depends on my mood. I'll say bananas

Soda or pop? Sodapop or Coke?
Pop, coke

Pocky?
Never had it.

Pez?
Orange Pez for the win

If the ice cream man came to your street right now and you had $3, what would you buy from him?
Twist cone of soft serve

Describe what you would consider a romantic date.
A walk down the beach at night

Nae painfully thought these words up:
Do you have any siblings, and who are they and what do they do?
no siblings that I know of in adopted family.

Do you get along with your siblings?
see above

What nicknames did you have as a kid?
"buster brown" "Andy" "Kujo"

Did you like to build "forts" out of blankets in the living room when you were a kid?
Yes, lots of em

When you were little, hat did you want to be when you grew up?
Astronaut

How has that changed? Or has it?

What is your favorite thing to do? Why?
confuse others into thinking I'm right because of an off the wall reason, or just plain confuse their beliefs thus confusing them.

What is your favorite holiday? Why?
if I had to choose one.... Memorial day. for the memories.

Seasons? What're those? I love San Diego. I can honestly say that i have no driving desire to live anywhere else.

San Diego

I like the Giesel (Central, Seuss, or wtfever it's being called this week) library at UCSD. I just think it's a pretty cool building and it really stands out amongst many of the other buildings here.

Not really. Other than bitching endlessly at any weather colder than 70.

I dunno that there's one food that i like to snack on most of the time. I really don't partake of the traditional snacks. But i'd say Grapes come the closest to being a "snack" of mine.

Soda. Coke.

Eh.

Good evey now and then.

Ice Cream Cookie Sandwich...mmmmmmmmmm

Depends on the mood i'm in at the time. The more standard date would be like this: It'd start at a nice restruant where a meal and conversation would be consumed with equal enjoyment. The meal would wrap up in time to walk down to this one place i know on the La Jolla beach to watch the sunset. Then a walk back to the beautiful beachfront appartment where an evening of chatting on the couch would commence.

The other side would be more like this: Go to concert. Likely to be some local bands that may or may not be any good. Then either go to a Lan Club and get our frag on, or go home to do the same over a nice warm Xbox. Prefferably all of this would be done with a copious amount of intoxicating beverage and friends.

suburbia

nearest: Sony HQ, it looks nice up on the hill; but for favorite, the FRY's in San Marcos

Pez?
no

If the ice cream man came to your street right now and you had $3, what would you buy from him?
I wouldn't buy, I save my money for things

Describe what you would consider a romantic date.
I would consider many things, dinner out, maybe a homemeade dinner, with candlelight, then spend some time at the beach for a sunset, or maybe a sunrise hike in the mountains/desert. and when the moment happens, be snuggling. I do know I would pretty much give anything for the person I love. so I'd like them to make a few of the decisions over me on what to do, I feel just spending time with an SO would be quite romantic if the mood was right

One sibling, older brother. He's in university, still thinking about what he's gonna do, but going for CompSci.

Do you get along with your siblings?

As well as normal siblings can get along. We fight, but that's a brother thing, y'know?

What nicknames did you have as a kid?

Well, to some, I'd still be a kid, but when I was really little (like, 2 or 3), I was nicknamed Silent Sam. I knew how to talk, and to some extent how to read, but I would never talk. My bro did all the talking for me.

Did you like to build "forts" out of blankets in the living room when you were a kid?

Yes! And they were IMPENETRABLE!

When you were little, hat did you want to be when you grew up?

A superhero. Really.

How has that changed? Or has it?

Hasn't changed. I'm going into CompSci because it really interests me, but if I could drop it all and become a superhero, I'd do it in a heartbeat.

I wish my computer could run City of Heroes...

What is your favorite thing to do? Why?

Play multiplayer competitive FPS games. I seem to be fairly good at them, especially UT and HALO. CS is diffucult, though, but that may just be my playstyle. I like to go in shooting, to hell with tactics.

What is your favorite holiday? Why?

Christmas. It should be self-explanatory.

Think back to being a small child. What town do you remember first in your mind?

The City of Townsville... Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, actually.

What was that place like?

Like it is now. A great place to live, but lots of mosquitoes.

Where do you live now?

Haven't moved.

Describe your favorite building in your area.

My house.

Does your region have any special traditions that would be different than other places?

Not that I know of.

What is your favorite snack food?

Chocolate. Chocolate is like the food of the Gods themselves.

Soda or pop? Sodapop or Coke?

Pop, although I don't drink it. Chocolate milk all the way!

Pocky?

I'd actually like to try that. I think I can get some relatively easy, too.

Pez?

Yes!

If the ice cream man came to your street right now and you had $3, what would you buy from him?

Anything with chocolate.

Describe what you would consider a romantic date.

...I don't know.

The first town that I can remember is Strafford, PA, when I was 3. It's part of Radnor Township, as I moved back to that district about 12-13 years later.

All I can remember at this point are very small things...the backyard, our neighbors' house and their cat...Driving along Lancaster and watching the buildings go by, especially this tiny white bakery where we used to get Sesame St. cupcakes...Go ahead and laugh, but I was only 2 or 3 at the time.

I live now in Paradise Valley, AZ. A totally different landscape from anywhere I've ever lived before.

Haven't really been that many places here yet, but the Fashion Square Mall in old Scottsdale is spiffy.

Dunno...except that we have monsoon rains here for a few weeks in the summer apparently, and with dry desert soil that can't absorb water easily, we get floods that cover roads with over seven feet of water at times, filling run-offs and gulleys.

Favorite snack food? If for chips and such, it would have to be Doritos, which I can't enjoy anymore on my diet, likewise with Skittles, my fave candy.

Soda, you crazy people! I lived in the Chicago area for eight years, and soda is forever ingrained in my mind.

Strawberry pocky...yaes.

Pez of any flavor is good...until it runs out.

God...I can't honestly remember any place I lived where the ice cream man would drive past our house...but there was a park where he stopped, and I'd get a lemon popsicle or a giant vanilla ice cream bar.

Romantic, huh? Dinner at a fancy restaurant, followed by a long nighttime walk in a local park or down by the beach. I'm such a traditionalist

Azrael Heavenblade fucked around with this message on 07-14-2004 at 05:49 PM.

Pez?
NO.

If the ice cream man came to your street right now and you had $3, what would you buy from him?
Ice cream

Describe what you would consider a romantic date.
I haven't been on a date in five years. I know as much about romance as Darth Vader knows about Candyland.

Do you get along with your siblings?
Yes. I never used to, though.

What nicknames did you have as a kid?
I don't remember them all. I think I got called "Tubby" once, and I didn't understand why at the time because I was like 5, and I still don't understand now because I was really skinny as a kid. Others include "Ry-guy," "Ry-babe" and other variations on the theme.

I liked building snow forts and tunnels more. Yes, the joys of the north.

When you were little, hat did you want to be when you grew up?
A lot of things. I imagined being a ninja, I had lots of toy swords. I was obsessed with the Ninja Turtles too, but I don't think I wanted to be a turtle. I had a fascination with soldiers for awhile too.

How has that changed? Or has it?
Now I'm treating my life more as an oppurtunity to get ahead. I want to get into something that will offer good pay and good job security, even if I don't enjoy it. I don't think I'd get into a field I hated, though. It'd get too tedious. Once I got some money under my belt though, I'd move on to more things I want to do. Or, that's the plan.

What is your favorite thing to do? Why?
I couldn't tell you. I don't do a whole lot, which is kind of sad. I enjoy going out, when I get the chance.

What is your favorite holiday? Why?
Christmas. I get to spend time with the relatives I'd never see otherwise. Everybody changes so much from year to year.

Think back to being a small child. What town do you remember first in your mind?
My first memory period took place on the outskirts of the city I live in now, Auburn. I was around 3 at the time.

What was that place like?
My memories are fuzzy, but I think it was kind of trashy and old now that I picture it in my mind. Old floors, cigarette burns in the carpet, stuff like that. But when you're young, a home's a home. I remember it fondly, since it's the first place I remember.

Where do you live now?
In a small apartment in the city.

Describe your favorite building in your area.
There's a lot of cool buildings in my area. A lot of old ones are around. There's one that used to have this really eccentric rich guy living in it. The building looked kind of fantasy castle-ish and he got lots of decorations to make it look straight out of a fairy tale. That was pretty cool.

Does your region have any special traditions that would be different than other places?
Jeez, I don't know. Probably. It's hard to tell, because I've never been far outside of my region.

If so, what are they?
Dunno.

What is your favorite snack food?
Yogurt or...frozen yogurt.

Soda or pop? Sodapop or Coke?
Soda. Nobody says pop 'round here.

Pocky?
Never had it.

Pez?
Very tasty.

If the ice cream man came to your street right now and you had $3, what would you buy from him?
Probably not...I'd feel like I was cheating some poor kid out of their icecream. I got icecream from him a couple of years back, and I felt REALLY weird being about twice the height of everybody else there.

Describe what you would consider a romantic date.
Oh man. I don't know.

Do you get along with your siblings? With my Brothers? Not really, as if you couldn't tell by the first question. My step brother I have seen lik2 maybe 3 times ever, but I do get along with my step sister, but we are not close.

When you were little, what did you want to be when you grew up? Astronaught, and fighter pilot.

How has that changed? Or has it? Bad vison kills any hope of fighter pilot, big let down when I had to get glasses. As for astronaught, i would love to get a job in the space program.

What is your favorite thing to do? Why? Building stuff. Dunno, feels like I did something, doesn't matter if itt's a Model, a deck, wood working, ect.

What is your favorite holiday? Why? Christmas, most because it'sin the winter, and since I have grown up a bit, I get a bigger kick out of the giveing over the reciving part. Plus Family tradtion is a bigass prime rib dinner, and havering the cookies and other baked goods, Nice roaring fire.

Think back to being a small child. What town do you remember first in your mind? MaCalister OK

When you were little, hat did you want to be when you grew up?
--A pilot and then an astronaut.

How has that changed? Or has it?
--I'd love to be both, but pilot lessons are too expensive and an astronaut for a civilian is so unrealistic the chance might as well be 0 (Yeah, it happens, but it's not worth basing my life around it ).

If so, what are they?
