Google.

I like Google. Google is your friend.
So like.
I'm supposed to put some stuff about me eh?

1. What do you do? (Hobbies, job)

-Uh. Not much really. I'm more focusing on school, getting through classes, etc. Most of the time I'm just messing with my computer. Taking it apart. Rebuilding it. Taking it apart again. Snapping little pieces which shouldn't have been snapped, and trying to glue them back together. Which doesn't really work.

2. Who is your favorite author?

-Dan Brown was, because of Digital Fortress, which was just a sexy book. I mean, bigass computer exploding? What more could a man ask for?

But now that I've gotten into Paradise Lost... I can't put it down.
Well. I can. And I am. But I don't want to.

3. What are your favorite films?

-Equilibrium. That movie was awesome.
And any movie with a forest in it. Because I <3 forests. They're sexy.
And then, I'm sure there are alot of other movies.
But I'm fine.

4. What music do you want played at your wedding?

-"Dennis Leary's I'm An Asshole"

5. At your funeral?

-Some random piece of rap. Start out with some sad version of Taps, and as soon as they're about to lower me into the grave, unannounced to the attendes, "I got a tech nine now his smokin ass is mine", blares out. Either that, or something like Burn The Priest's Bloodletting. I mean. Just that pure screaming that only metalheads can even remotely understand.

6. This IS a gothic website, so... how do you want to die?

-Very quickly.
Like, gunshot.
Gunshot sounds good. And not one of those pussy calibers either. I want to be shot by a real bullet. A nice 7.62, right to the head. That way, I can say I died, with a cool bullet. And the guy better shoot good too. No shitty job either. I want it to be a nice clean shot. My corpse need's to look good.

7. What kind of casket would you want?

-A cheap one. (It's a 30 minute video. Have fun.)

8. What's your FAVORITE outfit?

-Camouflage. Because it's really sexy. And comfortable. Unless you have to be all snappy and look nice and neat. In which case I've heard it's uncomfortable. But just laying around the house. It's comfy. And sexy. And has a ton of pockets. I mean. Pockets are useful.

9. What's one thing you miss about being a little kid?

-I left?

10. What's your favorite band?

Dark Tranquility.
Why? They just sound sexy. I mean. Even the name sounds sexy.
And then, "Format C: For Cortex"? That's a sexy song name.
And a sexy song too.
They're just sexy. I love that word. Sexy is a sexy word.

11. What kind of education do you have? What is/was/will be your major?

-Highschool. I'm trying to get out of it though. But appearantly, you need to spend the full 12 years. Which I dislike. So, I'm looking for a way to like, jump ahead of this. I'm looking for a computer science major. Perferably in cryptology.

12. Why did you join?

-I don't know. I blame Google. Well. I can't blame Google. Because Google is God. Like Wikipedia and Slashdot. You do not angry Google. You won't like Google when it's angry.

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

-Uh. I'm supposedly male. But I'm not sure. Because. Well. I have this thing, where, like, my mind, makes me believe, that I'm actually female, and that I'm like all other females, and that all males, are actually females, and they're just not telling me. Or that, I'm actually the only one with a gender. And everyone else are robots. Which would be scary. So. I think I'm male.

So. Male.

Unless there's something you all, and you know how you are, you sons... or daughters I suppose, of bitches, need to tell me.

So like.
Yeah.
That's me.
Or maybe it's not. Maybe I'm just a figment of my imagination?
Which would beg the question, why are you having my imagination.

You know what I realized.
Not one of you said "Hi" to me.
I feel left out.
And since I have a ton of time on my hand (Waiting for Fedora to download from BitTorrent. If I wanted to waste a bunch of DVDs on CD sized files, I could do it. But I don't. So I have to use BitTorrent.), I feel now inclined to redo my introduction.

1. What do you do? (Hobbies, job)

Right now I'm currently in High School, focusing on that. (AP classes are great, and I'd recommend them in a heartbeat; much more content, but takes a bunch of time). Outside of that, I'm working on learning a programming language (C++ if you're interested), and getting better with Linux. (Note the downloading of Fedora, a Linux distribution. I'm currently using PCLinuxOS for it's ease, but it doesn't have that same feel as when I used a really heavily configured version, so I'm going to take this one from start to finish, and learn it inside out.)

2. Who is your favorite author?

"Author". Are you insane? Just pick one...
Argh. Okay, so as I mentioned before, I'm happy with Dan Brown's Digital Fortress, and John Milton's Paradise Lost, but there are so many more. I personally enjoy poetic style stuff like Paradise Lost and Beowulf, but right now I'm on the heavy "Let's learn philosophy" thing. So, it's less one author, and more a ton of no-name authors dealing with many subjects.

That, and these "Portable" books. Basically collections of tons of authors. I'm going through "The Portable Neitzche" right now. It's incredibly interesting, and they're actually fairly small books, so it's easy to carry around.

3. What are your favorite films?

Equilibrium, 1984, The Matrix, Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, The Boondock Saints, Alien, Gladiator, The Fifth Element, Braveheart, Kingdom of Heaven, Black Hawk Down, The Patriot, Crash, Master and Commander, Hackers, Gettysburg, The Bourne Identity / Supremacy, K-Pax, The BBS Documentary, Jhonny Mnemonic, Sweet November, Wargames, Kill Bill Vol. 1 & 2, The Last Samurai, I Am Sam, Good Will Hunting, Gladiator, AI and Finally, Minority Report.

4. What music do you want played at your wedding?

-"Dennis Leary's I'm An Asshole"

5. At your funeral?

-Some random piece of rap. Start out with some sad version of Taps, and as soon as they're about to lower me into the grave, unannounced to the attendes, "I got a tech nine now his smokin ass is mine", blares out. Either that, or something like Burn The Priest's Bloodletting. I mean. Just that pure screaming that only metalheads can even remotely begin to understand.

6. This IS a gothic website, so... how do you want to die?

Either in some glorious, "I died for my country" type thing, where I'm at the tip of freeing the people, and losing my life liberates the people from a tyrannical regime...

Or.

Very quickly. Like, gunshot quickly. And not one of those pussy calibers either. I want to be shot by a real bullet. A nice 7.62, right to the head. That way, I can say I died, with a cool bullet. And the guy better shoot good too. No shitty job either. I want it to be a nice clean shot. My corpse need's to look good.

7. What kind of casket would you want?

A cheap one. (If you watch Penn and Teller regularily, you'll understand.)

8. What's your FAVORITE outfit?

Just regular sweatshirt and jeans. Adding or removing something I need or don't need onto my clothes is something I've started doing. Like, say I want thumb holes in my sweatshirt so I can write better. I'll just take my pen, stab it through the sweatshirt, and presto, I have holes.

Or, say I need a bigger pocket to hold something. Just get a staple gun, and a piece of cloth. Boom, bigger pocket. Need to carry a laptop? Just nail straps into your clothes. Nothing much. I don't like permanent things either. I like things I can take apart, and remake again.

9. What's one thing you miss about being a little kid?

I left?

10. What's your favorite band?

It varies up from time to time, so I decided I might as well give a basic list, of what I might listening to, at any given moment.

Aeon, Agathodaimon, All Shall Perish, Amon Amarth, Amorphis, Anathema, Arch Enemy, Armageddon, Artillery, At The Gates, Ayreon, Baphomet, Behemoth, Biomechanical, Bleed The Sky, Bloodbath, Brainstorm, Burn The Priest, Caliban, Cannibal Corpse, Carcass, Celtic Frost, Children of Bodom, Chimairia, Chrome Divsion, Collide, Cryptopsy, Dark Funeral, Dark Tranquillity, Deathstars, DevilDriver, Diecast, Dimmu Borgir, Dismember, dope, DragonForce, Dream Evil, Edguy, Evergrey, Goatwhore, Gorgoroth, Hammerfall, Hatebreed, Hatesphere, Heaven Shall Burn, High On Fire, Hypocrisy, Iced Earth, If Hope Dies, Immortal, In Flames, Isis, Jack Off Jill, Jag Panzer, Kataklysm, Kidney Thieves, Kreator, Lacuna Coil, Lamb of God, Mastodon, Mercenary, Mindless Self Indulgence, Mnemic, Molested, Monstrosity, Moonspell, Morbid Angel, Morpheus Descends, Mushroomhead, My Dying Bride, Nevermore, Nightwish, Nile, Primal Fear, Rhapsody, Rotting Christ, Scar Symmetry, Sentenced, Silent Civilian, Skinless, Soilwork, Still Remains, Strapping Young Lad, Symphony X, Tapping The Vein, The Black Dahlia Murder, The Haunted, The Kovenant, Therion, Thine Eyes Bleed, Type O Negative, and Usurper.

11. What kind of education do you have? What is/was/will be your major?

As I said before, Highschool. I'm looking for a major in computer science, preferably cryptology, although I'm looking more and more into computer networking, and then computer programming. Either that, or get a History major, and teach at a major university.

12. Why did you join?

It was a cold rainy day (Actually, it was night, it was incredibly warm, and there wasn't a cloud in the sky, although it was incredibly hard to see outside, because it was dark.) when I stumbled upon this place (More like I searched out for it, because of an intense amount of abstract googling.). I decided after watching ye all very closely (Which amounted to about... Five minutes of reading the first pages.) I decided ye were all OK (In other words, you were active people. That's pretty much my entire criteria for liking someone. Can you breathe? Yep? Okay. You're my friend.)

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

Still male.

Unless you, and it's the same you, need to tell me something.

You know what, your post are really really freaky....namely you are just like a friend of mine. Especially the gender answer. He says almost the same thing. And the obsession with the word sexy...*shivers*

so I am freaked out. Very, very much indeed. I am too freaked out to say anything more so I'll just tell you "hi" which should keep you from feeling left out and also should prevent you from doing an other introduction that would freak me out even more.

Damn. I quite liked your first intro with the 'sexiness' & all. Now I feel really bad for not saying hi. Was this supposed to have that affect on me?


Meh, you're a nice guy from what I've seen. So yeah, stick around & use the word sexy more

Nah. S'all cool. I just said no one said "Hi", because I was bored.
And I still am.
I still have three hours to download this thing. Which is odd, because at 10:45 last night, it said I had 2.
Damn you BitTorrent!

Anyway, you guys said "Hi".
I'm happy now.

Hi, sexy.

I like your (first) intro, and I too feel a tiny bit of guilt for having originally missed it.

So welcome!
