    Anime That My Girlfriend Would Like

    I would suggest a bunch of Miyazaki's work here, because I'm a huge fan, but seeing as we're trying to steer away from that, I would say Paprika and FLCL are both fantastic. Crazy, gorgeous animation (especially in Paprika) and they never really get old... I love Cowboy Bebop as well, and...

    Great Respect

    I respect people who dedicate their time to improving other's lives, whoever they are and regardless of what they are or aren't getting paid. Particularly my teachers, because some of them are phenomenally awesome and manage to make learning fun. Like best-memories-of-my-life fun. And my...

    Post your latest dream here

    The last dream I remember having was this: San Francisco was an island and the entire coastline was made up of sand beaches. At dusk and throughout the night these weird creatures that looked like beavers with rabbit limbs, bat wings, leathery cat ears and whip-like tails that curled under...

    What's your job?

    I did that once as well, but I decided to up the ante by buying bandaids and whipped cream as well. The fun part is that I needed all four, and all for completely different purposes. (I like sunomono and hot cocoa, I had a stubbed toe, etc.) Anyways, I start work at Starbucks on Tuesday...

    Games you wonder if anyone else has played...

    I'm curious as to whether anyone else here has played Magical Starsign. (If you haven't, don't, unless you're a borderline suicidal desperately looking for one last thing to push you over the edge...) Also, did anyone besides me ever even touch the GBC Pokemon TCG? I know that's horrible and...

    Best game soundtrack?

    THANK YOU. Now I don't feel like a complete dork for totally loving the soundtracks from those games. And yes, Zelda (take your pick depending on mood), early Sonic games, and XENOSAGA. I love the music in that game; especially the battle music. My candidate for worst soundtrack, because...

    Favorite NON-gaming hobby

    Drawing, cooking, sewing, list-making, website coding, finding new ones to make myself even more of a hopeless nerd, drinking with friends, and modeling (both the girly type and the Maya type). Oh yes, also, sexing people up and exploring my awesome city. And making fake maps.

    just how weird are you?

    I make lists and roughed-out plans for anything and everything compulsively. Usually about three a day, if my brain is in zombie mode, and the rates increase from there. I grew up in a barn- we lived in the loft above our goat herd. I was an adamant nudist until I started going to school...

    Poll: Are you a Geek or a Nerd?

    I consider myself a total nerd, but by your description I fit more into the geek category... Anyone who can follow my ramblings on biology gets major points though. And I've been known to use lengthy explanations of oxytocin as pick-up lines... Not that they work or anything.

    The Good Ol' Days

    I miss the days when... Video games and cartoons were exciting and fun no matter how raw I'd played them. I didn't have to care how much of an idiot the president was or wasn't. There was always somewhere for spontaneous sex. Rubberband guns, blanket forts and pillow fights were perfectly...

    Your most embarrasing, emasculating, video game moment

    As far as emasculation by fear: I have never got to the last temple in Majora's Mask, simply because there are Redeads in a room on the way. And their screams still freak me out SO much that, since I got this game seven years ago, I have never finished it because of those damn Redeads. As...

    Most Difficult Boss you've ever faced.

    Definitely the Doom Dragon at the end of Golden Sun Lost Age. I know it's sad to use a boss from a turn-based game, but that guy killed me so many times using the same fucking super-powered attacks multiple times in a round. The only way to beat him was to grind levels until you got an equally...

    Poll: Health Bar or Regenerating Health, what is your stance on this new trend?

    Personally I'm a big fan of the Health bar. No, it's not realistic. Neither is magically regenerating health, unless you have some completely valid reason, and most of those are overused because there's very few of them. I've never played Deus Ex (so thanks for the explanation), but it sounds...

    Sexiest male and female characters

    As far as boys go, I suppose since someone mentioned Vincent that brings the total number of video game guys I would gladly do up to one (although I imagine foreplay might get awkward what with all the metal and claws). I tend to go more for the ladies when it comes to games. On which note...

    You're Too Beeeeeauitful, Game!

    The first game that really wowed me with graphics was, sadly enough, Oracle of Seasons. Why? Because it was the first game I played that wasn't NES or a dualtone Pokemon game, and bright, varied colors have a way of making 12-year-old girls happy. However, the first games to really knock me...
