    Farcebook and the escapist

    I have facebook but I'm notorious for ignoring it. O.o;;

    Whats the last thing that "Disturbed" you? (fiction or otherwise)

    I'm a part of the BJD hobby/obsession and was recently shown a picture of a faceup (aka painted makeup/eyelashes/etc) on a doll that made me want to hide from my computer screen. Mind you, I've seen everything from creepy to fugly to beautiful to cute to WTF in the doll world. This one took the...

    Poll: what do you want done with your body after you die

    I don't think anyone wants my organs... *I* don't want them, nature thought it'd be fun to give me the leftovers. Meanwhile, Viking funeral please. At sea.

    What happened to game manuals!?

    *raises hand* me too. textbooks for all they sucked, if new, also smelled good... OT: I've kept all my old manuals. Though mostly they just sit, occasionally they do come in handy as I only have a couple official/unofficial game guides total. And the manual for Baldur's Gate II comes with a...

    STUPID things you did last night?...

    Hmmmm... nothing. Watched Cry's livestream (chaoticmonki on youtube, does awesome let's plays), chatted with various people using various programs, and worked on a yaoi fic.

    Unskippable: Socom 4

    The main character is kinda cute... but that ain't saving this game for me. Meanwhile... "which, on a military transport, just means I get a chair" ....someone's taken a MAC flight. XD

    So I asked out the girl I have a crush on...

    I'm just gonna bypass all the other tangents and say: If you don't ask a girl/guy, you will always have the equivalent of a "no." You have to actually ask, to get anything other than "no." You still might get "no," but then at least you can move on and look for "yes" somewhere else. Good...

    So escapists, what is the oldest game you own a PHYSICAL copy of ?

    Hmm... probably Paganitsu. CGA colors (aka 4) and yes, on a floppy... though not the original larger floppies that were actually bendable without removing the casing.

    Have your parents ever done this?

    I was one of the top of the comparison totem pole types. And even that wasn't enough, in the end. Now the two abusive people who managed to figure out how to get pregnant blame everything on me. I've had no contact with them for over two years now, so nice. They can be bitter, angry, hateful...

    When building a new computer: How do you do it?

    I'm building one myself, getting the parts one or a few at a time due to very limited income. It's a bit nuts considering my PC knowledge is much more Pentium 2 era... buuut I don't want junky parts and I'd like to get it done myself so I can do it again when needed anyways. I currently don't...

    Poll: First or Third-person view in Skyrim?

    First person, it's how I played Morrowind (until waaay late in a couple playthroughs when my characters had enchanted fancy clothes on so they was actually worth looking at). I started with Morrowind sooo Oblivion I played in first person too, and thus we land at Skyrim. Switching to third kills...

    Racism in Skyrim?

    Well there's a whole lot of anti-elf stuff, often with a side of anti-magic stuff especially when talking to most Nords in the game. That's all fine and dandy for universe and plot reasons, but the odd thing I noticed was that in one major conversation I had a guy telling me how craptastically...

    Perverts ruining things.

    Life is just so much more interesting (and hilarious) with a dirty mind. It's one of the few free and good things we have left after there's no more free rent and people not looking down on us for liking things we're "too old" for. Embrace your inner perv and get on with life. :3 Edit: Wow...

    A question to women

    I'm 6'3", weigh in at about 160lbs (actually having issues keeping weight on but that's a whole other can of worms), and used to way 210-220. Guess which part of me didn't change much with all the weight loss? Yeah. I can wear the most boring t-shirt on earth with a typical...

    Time To Get Personal: Family Matters

    I'm not on speaking terms with the genetic material providers, and never will be. I may have to talk to them one more time to get them to stop trying to ruin what's left of my little brother's life... but in reality they'd probably just lie again and promise more things they'll never do. They...
