I'm new! (ish)

[Jfswift]

Same here, i've been lurking for quite a while now.

Same here? You're not new, you have over a thousand posts!

Doesn't really feel like I've been on here that long though, but yea point taken

 

[the fists of tezla]

Um... hello.

I don't really know what I can say. So do you (or anyone reading this for that matter) like saltine crackers?

Most definitely good sir. I find them quite delectable.

 

[tso0001]

Hello.

 

[Skorpyo]

Only one bit of advice that I have for new persons:

Don't look up "The Scary Thread".

We keep it in the basement. Which you should stay out of.

 

[Dragoniferous]

Welcome, but you shouldn't ever admit to being a girl on the internet.

I'm too busy loving your avatar to listen to your advice. I love Fight Club far too much.

What are the seven rules?

1. Do not talk about Fight Club
2. Do NOT talk about Fight Club
3. If someone says stop, taps out or goes limp, the fight is over.
4. Only two guys to a fight
5. One fight at a time
6. No shirts, no shoes.
7. Fights go on as long as they have to
8. If this is your first night at Fight Club... You have to fight.

Almost, but rule three and rule seven should be under the same rule. However, I am merely nit-picking. Now, if you had a tumor, what would you name it?

Cannot quote word perfect? Must watch again!
And, uh... Bertha. Because I loathe the name Bertha.

The answer I was looking for is Marla. You should also read the book if you haven't already.

I have Twice.
I was just thinking my own personal tumour, if I were to have one.
Question time for you, which did you prefer out of book and movie? And which did you see/read first?

Read the book first, but I prefer the film.

Alright. I saw the film first, but I think I like them pretty equally. One of the very few times I haven't disliked a movie made from a book.

You have won my respect. Now, (if you should feel so inclined) what are some of your other film/literary/game interests?

Films: Donnie Darko, Disney Classics, Pixar movies, Pulp Fiction, Reservoir Dogs, LotR, Studio Ghibli stuff... Can't think right now. I know I'm missing some obvious ones.

Literature: His Dark Materials trilogy, Fight Club, Robin Hobb Farseer trilogy, Anne McCaffrey stuff, Catcher in the Rye, Flow my Tears the Policeman Said, 1984, Brave New World, more that I can't remember.

Games: Half-Life and episodes, Portal, Bioshock (though I'm still playing, haven't finished), Halo/Halo 2, Minecraft, Pokémon, Zelda OoT, MM, TP, WW, And again, more.

Yourself?

Well, for films we have: Fight Club (of course), Full Metal Jacket, A Clockwork Orange, 2001: A Space Oddysey, Blade Runner, 28 Days Later, 28 Weeks Later, Zombieland, Fido, Forrest Gump, Lord of the Rings trilogy, both Star Wars trilogies, The Warriors, Mad Max trilogy, Alien saga, Predator series, Black Hawk Down, Inglorious Basterds, Band of Brothers, Firefly (I know it's a television show), Serenity, Saving Private Ryan, Terminator series, Gran Torino, Scott Pilgrim Versus the World, and anything from Pixar.

For literature we have: Fight Club (again), A Clockwork Orange, John Dies at the End, World War Z, The Zombie Survival Guide, Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, 1984, Animal Farm, Brave New World, Lord of the Rings trilogy, Full Metal Jacket, 2001: A Space Oddysey, Band of Brothers, Fallen Angels, and anything by H.P. Lovecraft.

For games I enjoy: the Fallout series, the Left 4 Dead series, The Elder Scrolls series, the Gears of War series, the Halo series, Silent Hill 2, the Battlefront series, the Dawn of War series, Medievil II: Total War, Mario, and an NCAA Football game every now and again.

Add Blade Runner, 28 Days Later, Alien Saga (notsomuch the fourth, but I love the odd line that just seems so Joss Whedony), Firefly, Serenity, Dollhouse (only seen one season though), Angel, Buffy (though Buffy begins to grate a little now that I've seen Joss' better stuff.) Dr. Horrible's Sing-a-Long-Blog. (Bit of a Whedon fangirl?) and also some horror, The Ring, The Grudge (Japanese versions) and Saw to my films.

And Animal Farm and Lord of the Rings to my books. This section is is frustrating me because I'm an avid reader, over three-four books a week depending on how obsessed with a series I am at the time and how much homework I have, yet I can't seem to remember anything.


I have no idea if this post makes any sense because I'm running a high grade fever. I apologise if it reads... interestingly.

No problem at all. I completely agree with you about the fourth instalment in the Alien saga. That one left a lot to be desired.

Now for the sake of conversation, what types of sports/other hobbies are you into?

(We have quite the string of quotes going don't we?)
