Two of my bestest online friends are from the Netherlands - they are tall (as opposed to Kites friends)
What do you do for a living?
Instead of just listing your favorite movie please your top 5.
What movie that was popular or critically acclaimed did you think was lame?
Are you a better mafia or civilian? Why?
What are your interests outside mafia and movies?
Whats the best thing about being Dutch?

And welcome to the syndicate!
I work in financial services both parttime and as a freelancer. And at the side I'm a writer.

I can go on and on about favorite film lists, here is my top 50 which I compile at the end of each year:
https://rateyourmusic.com/list/Iron_Dwa ... mber-2017/

But for your convenience, the top 5 is:
1. A Woman Under the Influence
2. Eyes Wide Shut
3. Sunrise, A Song of Two Humans
4. Tokyo Story
5. City Lights

Quite a few, but the most recent one is Call Me By Your Name.

Not sure, but I think mafia, because people never really know how to read me. On the other hand, this means I often get read as scum.

Music (I'm from the site rateyourmusic after all), philosophy and Dungeons & Dragons.

The one thing I really like about the Dutch is our directness.

Here's another question I_D: what sports did you/do you watch? What's your team?
I watched football quite fanatically until two years ago. My favorite team is Feyenoord, based in Rotterdam.

I also watched e-sports for quite some time, the game Hearthstone. Even played in a team for a short while myself. Was a huge fan of Firebat.

I don't have pets and neither do I want to have any.
ok, I have a billion follow up questions to these:

first; WHAT!????? what kind of film? is there any way we can see it? what's the story? what motivated you to do that? who was your inspiration? how long ago was this? :p

second question: @Kylemii, the guy said he doesn't want pets. I think your job here is to convince him that he does. cos everyone wants a pet but you just may not know it yet :p
You never read my RYM profile then, where it's linked. I just always wanted to make a film and participated in some project where I made a film with 5 others in 3 months using feedback of professional film makers. I was the production designer there and our film even screened on a few festivals. After I tried to write/direct myself and this was the result. It's obviously very low budget although I did spend a lot on special effects/make-up. :D

Thank you Iron_Dwarf and I LOVE the Dutch directness too. It took me a bit of getting used to but its my favorite train in my Dutch friends so I like you already!

Sometimes it will naturally come out, but it can be contained if we just remember that this is a game on a message board forum that 99.99% of the population of the Earth has never heard of before. No matter how successful anyone is, it means just about nothing.

Not necessarily cold, but foreigners can see us as being quite rude. We don't shy away from saying it like it is sometimes.

We can be funny, although Dutch humor is very blunt. We're also outgoing. Have you seen us during international football matches? Us taking over the local campings during Euro/Worlds makes me laugh and feel a little bit embarrassed at the same time.

As for directness, we still have the usual polite facade going on in social circles. But between friends or in business meetings nothing can be sacred and we don't feel offended when that is the case.

185cm is normal? holy crap. I live in the wrong country for sure.

I love that you say the best thing about being Dutch is they are direct. Does this often translate as coldness or maybe even being interpreted as rude between each other? or foreigners? Swedes are known to be cold but it's mainly cos most of them, believe it or not, are actually shy. also unfriendly but whatever.

Danes? You mean Dutch? We have English in high school and iirc even in primary school, at least I had. We also have French and German for 1 or 2 years, and it becomes an optional subject afterward. So generally we do speak good English.

I chose French and German in high school and even had a French course for credits during university. Unfortunately the occasions to speak those languages are rare. When forced to speak it, my French is quite well despite having a weak vocabulary at the moment. I can read and understand German perfectly, but it's tough to speak nowadays (vocabulary is the problem again). During high school I could do a little bit of Italian even and I had ancient Greek and Latin.

Autumn.

Cool.

We are quite business-like with each other. In my experience it's hard to make new friends after university, you really need to join some social clubs (e.g. sports association) otherwise people do keep distance.

I had working experience in it during my studies. And after I dropped out of my PhD it was convenient to get jobs in this field. In terms of Ikigai (http://www.performanceexcellencenetwork ... gust-2017/) it's something I am good at and pays the bills. :)

Thanks for the interesting week, [mention]Iron_Dwarf[/mention]. We're so happy to have you here! Be sure to check out the movie and music sections too if you're interested. We have some really avid movie watchers who write extremely pretentious reviews and think they're cooler than everyone else. Would be nice if you bring them down a notch or ten. :p


rundontwalk Interrogation



For the next interrogation, I'd like to welcome rundontwalk, one of RYMafia's founding members and practically royalty. He invented a special kind of mafia style, that confuses the hell out of people, but made him one of the best of the best. Playing mafia can be stressful and annoying, but I always know as long as I have rundontwalk in the player list, we're in for a good time!

Texan native, rundontwalk is studying law and building his fandom to become your next American President (well, not next, but in the future for sure). Would I vote for him? Hell yes.

[mention]rundontwalk[/mention], to get things started: why law?

Who did you vote for in the last election?

Does your gf think you're more adorable or do you think she's more adorable? Cos I can't get over how adorable you both are. Like holy hell. Adorable overload.

Hey RYMers, get in on this questioning. Now's your chance!

Awwww thanks for your kind words <3

1. Because I've always been interested in politics and policy. Most of my heroes went to law school, lol. I wanna be a public defender which in America are people appointed by the court to defend poor people who can't afford a defense.

2. I didn't vote :o. I regret that. I just assumed Texas would go the way it did and didn't bother.

3. Hehehe. I think she's more adorable. She's great. We're leaving tomorrow to her home town and I'm meeting all her family, though I've met her parents before.

I'm really into the history of the European conquest/settlement of the Americas and why things went down the way they did. In fact I'm stopping tomorrow at one of the missions in San Antonio to walk around midway through a long drive.

1. I think Texans go overboard with the state pride thing, which is the worst thing. Best thing is probably our interesting diversity of people and landscapes.

2. I have not but I have played the song during Mafia games to get me in that #ballstothewall mood.

Who are some of your heroes?

Do you think Obama made a good president really? Why or why not?

What do you think of Aceyalone's song All Balls Dont Bounce?

If you wanted to convert someone to country music, what's the first song you'd recommend they listen to?

If every Texan who wanted Texas to go the other way didn't vote, then Texas had no chance of changing its course 😛

1. I think it's too soon to tell re: Obama. But I think he was alright in some areas (esp. Environmental stuff, equal rights), though I wish he had been bolder. And I wasn't a fan of his foreign policy. I'm not sure we'll ever have any great presidents again.

2. Lincoln, John Muir, Shane MacGowan (:p), some of the great explorers like Ibn Battuta

3. I liked it! "Some balls roll, some balls hang" in the same song as a reference to Ross Perot. What's not to like?

4. My Favorite Picture of You - Guy Clark, off the top of my head.

PS: I will vote in November I promise.
