Um..hey

Hey, I'm Elliot. I didn't really feel like making a serious effort to let you guys know who I am, so I'll just answer the questions given.

1. What do you do? I don't have a job, but I play sports and listen to music. Thats about it, I'm not that deep.

2. Where are you from? Nellyville (St. Louis)

3. Who is your favorite author? I like Nietzsche and William golding

4. What are your favorite films? I really like Requiem For A Dream, Plan 9 From Outer Space, and Un Chien Andalou

5. What music do you want played at your wedding? Not sure, maybe "Crown Of Sympathy" by My Dying Bride

6. At your funeral? A Love Supreme by John Coltrane

7. This IS a gothic website, so... how do you want to die? I'd like to get pushed off a cliff or an airplane, that way I could spend the last minute of my life in a free fall

8. What kind of casket would you want? Oak wood?

9. What's your FAVORITE outfit? I could really care less about clothing, whatever comfortable and matches

10. What's one thing you miss about being a little kid? Ren And Stimpy

11. What's your favorite band? I hope I don't get flamed because my favorite bands aren't that representitive of my music tastes, but my favorite band is Pearl Jam.

12. What kind of education do you have? What is/was/will be your major? I haven't finished high school. I'd like to major is history

13. Why did you join? I like a lot of metal and some gothic, so I figured this was an easy way to get better exposed to more gothic music.

14. If the first 13 questions didn't give it away. What is your gender? Male

One rule to be okay with me: Don't you ever mention free fall around me -.-

Ah, Ren and Stimpy. . . I grew up watching them. I even drew a picture of Stimpy for my parents, long lost. I remember it looking really good, but I am sure if I looked at it now it would simply look like a red tumor with a face.

History, eh? What kind of history? I have an interest in history myself, though it's very particular. I prefer older history, dating back around the days of the Renaissance and prior.

Oh yeah! I forgot: Welcome to G.net, enjoy your stay

My favorite lines from Ren and Stimpy were:

(Ren Hoec) "You STOOOOpid IDiot!"

and

(Ren again) "Oh well, no use crying over spilled mitochondria!"

I still do Ren impersonations from time to time during serious moments to break the tension. I watch WAY too many cartoons.

Welcome Bor-Elliot!

Why do you call St. Louis "Nellyville"?

And do you think the "Sisters of Mercy" could use their "Tool" effectively to save "My Dying Bride"?

Actually, Nelly didn't start the band-aid thing as a trend. He had a cut on his face, and people automatically started wearing band-aids on their faces thinking it was the new "gangsta" thing to do.

Well, Nelly has an album called Nellyville, and Nelly went to my high school. Thus, University City (St. Louis suburb) is Nellyville
