Starbucks. I get a chocolate coconut mocha and I get a Puppuccino for my dog (espresso size of whipped cream). She gets more excited when I ask if she wants to go to Starbucks than to the park, lol.

Same question.

So many possible answers, lol. Let's go with microwaveable mug brownies. Fast and easy but I can make them really gooey and delicious.

I do. I have my 6th grade autograph book, my communion medal the pastor gave us, a stuffed leopard, and a few other odds and ends.

My left knee has permanent damage from when I went to the gym a few years ago and hit it on a machine like a complete twat. So stupid and avoidable, but ya live ya learn. Be careful when walking from one machine to the other, people. :p

19 years old. I kinda accidentally stole my roommates girlfriend in sophomore year of college. Drama. I was nervous, shy. Not sure what she saw in me. But hey, I got kissed, and it was pretty neat. Scent of cherries, fiery red hair.
That relationship exploded inside of two months.

Wish I could stop eating fast food. It's so cheap and easy, but I know it's probably slowly (or maybe not so slowly) killing me. Especially when I work Downtown and everything is just so close and conveniently located.


If you could have one show brought back, or one show's ending rewritten, what show would it be?

I would have The Wire brought back (sorry fellow Lost fans). I thought it was the best show on television. Watch it if you haven't already.

What TV show did you spend time watching that you ended up thinking was a waste of your time?

The Dark Knight

It was the only superhero movie I've ever seen that made me viscerally uncomfortable. I don't think Heath Ledger could have had a more brilliant swan song.

It's not a simulation but there are immutable rules that are discoverable.

What is the most "real" experience you've ever had?

Re: Random Questions Game

Posted: Wed Jan 23, 2019 1:49 pm

something that seems completely impossible outside of the experience. I was laying on my bed with the window open and music playing..not thinking of anything in particular. The music cut off and it was really quiet in the house. all I could hear were outside noises that were in the distance. I started concentrating on the noises with everything i had....was completely organic and not forced at all. All of a sudden, at least in my head, i was not in my room anymore but i was floating through the air like a ghost. no one could see me but i could see and hear the noises i was concentrating on before. I chalked it up to being in between sleep and awake only i didnt feel like sleep or dreaming at all. I have had lucid dreams and sleep paralysis before and this was way way way different. It was the craziest thing ive ever experienced in my life.


Do you believe in alternate dimensions and otherwise seemingly nutso things?

Re: Random Questions Game

Just like in the past when things like thunder were explained by things like, "The Gods are bowling", becasue the people of that time did not have the knowledge set to understand the scientific explanation, I think many things we view as paranormal or seemingly nutso will someday be scientifically verifiable things.

What is something you like about yourself today, that you disliked at some point in the past?

(side note..i do not have such faith in "scientific" explanations. I don't think all things CAN be explained "scientifically" and not every "scientific" explanation offered is legitimate. yeah i said it, scientism seems like a religion sometimes.)

Anyway, i used to dislike the fact that if I always said what i thought it would be a big turn off for certain people. Now I love that my honesty irritates some people. Its a great filtering system.

i would never laugh, good sir. My first vehicle was this but almost the same color as the car you pictured there:

I paid 125 bucks for it. It ran for 5 years. Oh and it had this issue of the horn getting stuck. It was as bad as it sounds.
The dumbest thing I ever did to impress my friends was apply "sun in" to my hair a week or two before school started back. My hair went from being dark brown to yellow. I thought it was gonna be more blonde....nope it was yellow. first few weeks of 8th grade were especially rough on me mentally.


what was the first especially embarrassing thing that happened to you as a youth in front of the opposite sex?
