This is totally off topic, but I just wanted to say I love your cat! He is so handsome! I had a Siamese for 14 years, but we had to put him to sleep because of his old age. I really want another one!

hahaha Thank you sooo much!  He's my pride and joy.  I got him a few years ago for a Christmas present when he was only 8 weeks old.  He's literally my best friend.

2. I haven't had a pet in over 12 years but I would like another one

Title: Re: sound off! (one! two!)
Post by: Noah G. on June 10, 2011, 08:04:21 PM
This is interesting...in my usual fashion, I seem to have typed quite a bit here.

1.) I'm a big automotive freak. Two of my favorite makes are Mercedes-Benz and Porsche, and I also love classics; there's a few makes that I don't like at all and for absolutely no reason, which includes Toyota and Lexus, Hyundai, and Kia.
2.) Not only that, but I love to drive, too. I hope that if we have a future ahead of us where the driver is taken out of the equation and automotives no longer have style or sex-appeal, or a beautiful rev to them, that I don't live to see such a thing.
3.) I really love working with my hands, especially taking things apart and putting things together (even so far as taking things apart just to see if I can put them back together and still have them work properly).
4.) I really enjoy learning about other cultures and countries, just about any aspect of them, including their foods. I also like history.
5.) I'm working on learning German and Russian, and to an extent Spanish as well. I took three years of French in school and hardly learned a thing.
6.) I love being outside hiking, camping, four-wheeling -- all sorts of things. I wish I had more opportunities to do so.
7.) There's a lot of movies I'd really like to see, but I rarely actually make an effort to see the movies I want to.
8.) I'm actually a really private person. Even with people I know well and have known for a while. It's rare that I truly share things that I feel are personal or more private. Even on Facebook most of my statuses are just completely random and/or superficial things.
9.) I love paranormal-based Tv shows, as well as  criminal-based (Criminal Minds, Law & Orders, NCIS). I also love Archer, House, Top Gear, and Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations.
10.) Music helps me deal with life and helps keep me focused; I listen to everything from metal and industrial, hard and classic rock, rap, jazz and swing, blues, classical, even some country. I also like foreign music (Rammstein and a Russian band called Pilot are amongst my absolute favorites). Songs about sex really amuse me.

1.) I survived 20 years in the military.
2.) I really enjoy sci-fi and comedy.
3.) I was the first goalie for the Bahrain National Hockey team.
4.) I build costumes for conventions when not drowning in homework.
5.) I play MMOs (currently only Rift)
6.) Got my 15-minutes of fame (Andy Warhol reference) as an extra in Mel Gibson's movie "Man without a Face."
7.) I LOVE cake (with sweet cream icing, none of that whipped junk)
8.) I have traveled all the way around the world.
9.) I have had a few constants in my life I can't live without: girlfriend, dog, motorcycle and jeep.
10.) I'm British/American

Post by: PandaValentine on June 10, 2011, 11:18:31 PM
This is a nice change. :)

1. I'm a dreamer. No matter where I am, or who I'm with, I have a hard time connecting with reality and leaving my inner world.
2. I live to see others smile, which is why no matter how down I am, I almost always am trying to make others laugh.
3. I want nothing more than to be a boyfriend, and a father.
4. If I didn't have art I would no longer exist in this world. Art is how I cope with sadness and anger, and what helps me better appreciate happiness and contentment.
5. I spent a lot of my childhood living as a child, and not wanting to let go, I still have trouble letting go.
6. I have so many things I want to do in life that I can't find one career I'd be happy with.
7. I love hiking, and would love to do so every day.
8. I am incredibly interested in how things are made.
9. I'm a romantic, maybe I don't say romantic things, but I believe in letting actions speak for me.
10. I prefer salty to sweet things.

@ Ryan: VAST! Awesome, next to nobody has heard the awesomeness of Jon Crosby, that I know of. And Nobuo Uematsu is an amazing composer, best game OST around was ffVII's imo.

1. At my core I'm hopelessly optimistic. I try to cover it up with layers of pessimism, but really, I always jump to good conclusions when presented with new situations. I'm happy that that hasn't been broken in me yet, so I doubt it ever will be :)
2. Music is life to me, I play guitar, bass, keyboard and have always wanted to play drums, plus I collect weird instruments.
3. In accordance to 2, I'd rather lose my eyesight than my hearing- I couldn't live without being able to hear.
4. If I was a Sim in Sims 2, my life aspiration would be "Family". All I want to do is share my life with someone, and despite every marriage around me and those on TV / in the media, I still believe for me there is someone and that a life long partnership can work.
5. I've wanted a cat for ages and now my friend has one, I love it to bits, we're going to kind of share it and this is an awesome development!
6. I have a gaming addiction, and was addicted to the escapism- I often run away from problems. I wasted a lot of my life playing an mmorpg called Everquest and then a free emulator of that called Shards of Dalaya. With a lot of willpower I stopped playing, but I get sucked in to games very easily.
7. I'm almost always the first person to say sorry in an argument, I've become very good at apologising
8. I like to socialise, and I'm happy being with people- but I can also enjoy being alone just as much, I like a balance of the two
9. I'm addicted to Haribo strawbs (this time I'm actually not being srs) but seriously these things are amazing
10. I have recently fallen in love with bike riding. I don't mind going on any errand, don't mind the distance or the weather; as long as I am on my bike I am happy.

Can I play? ^.^ I notice that I keep ending up in topics that are in the FTM Forum and I feel like I'm, invading, lolz

1.) I love all music except country, screamo, and hippy music from the 60's. That includes music not in English.
2.) I'm a leftie!
3.) I'm extremely shy to most people, a lot different from online.
4.) I play lots of video games, have an Xbox and Wii and DS. ;D And WoW but I just pvp.
5.) I love my 2 cats to pieces.
6.) I can play the guitar, but only basicly. Everything I know is from high school.
7.) In 3 months I'll be starting my senior year of high school.
8.) I'm not sure what I want to do in life, something that makes use of being bilingual.
9.) I love soccer and dodge ball, but I rarely get to play them. I hate basketball. >.>
10.) I'm obsessed with Mexican guys.

I could say more but alas, I already have 10 things. :'(

Post by: JesseO on June 11, 2011, 10:26:13 AM
This is fun!

1. I have fourteen tattoos. One is actually a tattoo of the library building I used to work at. It was the best job ever and I was so sad when it was closed down.

2. I have two cats and a rabbit. They each have their own "voice" I made up and make them "say" silly things to me with it.

3. My favorite band is Bloc Party.

4. I wanted to be a police officer or prison guard so I went to school for criminal justice. After years of trying, I can't pass the psychological evaluations (I personally think it's because I'm trans....as I am very "sound" in real life...work ft...go to school ft...) so I've given up and am working on my Bachelor's in Legal Studies. I plan on going to law school to get my Master's.

5. I rarely ever drink alcohol but when I do it's Captain and Coke. It was the first drink I've ever ordered and I've never strayed.

6. I love food. Like...I know a lot of people like food. But I LOVE food. It's almost gross. 

7. I think hip hop/ breakdancing is the coolest thing ever.

8. I love getting the mail. It's never anything exciting....but I still love getting it.

9. I cried tears of joy for the first time in my life when the movie "The Dark Knight" came out because I was so damn excited, lol.

10. I love going to the movies by myself. I try to go as often as time allows (once a week or every other at least).
Title: Re: sound off! (one! two!)
Post by: PixieBoy on June 11, 2011, 10:42:00 AM
1. I have a bad habit of cracking my finger and toe joints a lot (like cracking your knuckles, except you crack your joints).

2. I've been playing tabletop rpgs since I was 5 or 6 years old, with my father as the game master.

3. I find Art Nouveau very beautiful and one of my many dreams is to live an Art Nouveau life (with everything from wall sockets to windowframes done in the Art Nouveau style).

4. The sound of someone writing on a computer keyboard is comforting and sleep-inducing for me, I also like flicking fluorescent lights on and off just to listen to the little noises they make when powering up (I hate the light they create, but the noises are cool, every light has its own noise).

5. I'd like to consider myself a Goth, but I'm dreadfully unstylish and just enjoy the music.

6. The smell that some old books can have (a slightly sweet smell) is one of the most wonderful smells in the world, it invokes feelings of safety and comfort. If someone were to make a perfume/soap/whatever with that scent, I'd buy 100 bottles of it.

7. I have a cute pet lizard, she's a leopard gecko and I got her when I was 9, so she's an old lady by now.

8. Among my large amount of stuffed animals, I have a bat, a spider, two dinosaurs (one ceratosaur and the other is an unidentifiable creature with a long neck), a lemur, a bushbaby and a tiny dragon I've sown myself.

9. When I was younger, I was obsessed with ants, and pretty much saw the world through an "ant filter" (I related everything to ants, such as "There's mushrooms for dinner. A species of ants grow mushrooms which they feed to the ant larvae.").

10. I'm a bit like Marty McFly when it comes to challenges and dares; I can't back down, I have to do it (no matter how stupid it is).

Ok, I'll join :'P.

1 ) I am dating a Dungeons & Dragons Dungeon Master :'P. It's perfect because we match each other's nerdy xD.

2 ) I am a registered voter. I registered as a Non-Partisan, but consider myself a Conservative (I'd be a Republican if I weren't so disappointed in the party). Ironically, my boyfriend is also a Non-Partisan voter, but a Liberal xD (he'd be a Democrat if he weren't disappointed in the party :'P).

3 ) I'm a lifelong Christian, and intend to stay one.

4 ) I have so many allergies, I'm lucky I can eat or survive xD.

5 ) Despite my dietary restrictions, I love food and cooking. I take any time I can to watch Food Network and cook new and interesting things. People call me obsessed, but I don't care! D:<

6 ) Last year I finally got my broken tooth removed. I broke it back in 2004 xD. I have pictures of the tooth if anyone wants to see :'D! I have it on facebook >:'D.

7 ) Despite being born in the United States, English is not my first language. I'm Mexican and my first language is Spanish. Because of the internet, I speak Spanish better than English, but read and write English better than Spanish xD.

8 ) I met my boyfriend online though gaiaonline when we were around 18. He's from Long Beach, CA and I was living in Las Vegas, NV at the time. We were in a long distance relationship until election day last year. Now I live across the street from him. We're proof these kinds of relationships can work! D:<

9 ) Despite being gay, I love flirting with women and making them feel pretty. I always make it clear I'm gay first though :'P.

10 ) I'm hungry! D:

1.  I'm proud to be INTP.
2.  I teach 2nd grade.
3.  I was a M*A*S*Haholic in 7th-9th grade and even tried to get people to call me Hawkeye for awhile.
4.  I wanted to be in the military for the longest time and was one of the top JROTC cadets in my high school, but I didnt' have the discipline to lose weight to pass the physical.
5.  I still like to retreat to my favorite daydream as a child-- pretending I'm showing someone (usually a favorite book character) around my life and talking to them about my activities as I go about my day.
6.  I have hypnagogic hallucinations several times a week in which I see giant spiders in my room or bed right before falling asleep, which causes me to jump out of bed, turn on the lights, and stand there staring at the blank wall until my heart stops racing and I can get back in bed and try again to go to sleep.
7.  I was raised Catholic, was a hard-core atheist in high school and part of college, finished college a hard-core Catholic, converted to Judaism, and am now fairly agnostic.
8.  I tried to be a Satanist for a week, but I couldn't make myself be self-centered enough.
9.  I would eat 10 boxes of Nutty Bars if I got the chance.
10.  I can be extremely full of myself and over-confident in my abilities sometimes, but I'm very good at not showing it.

after reading through this thread i've come to the conclusion that you guys are all awesome!

1. I love skateboarding and have wanted to been a professional skateboarder since the age of ten. That being said, I'm not nearly good enough at skating to be a pro. Lately I've been getting back on my board and I hope to be the first transman to go pro!
2. I have an obsession with reptiles, amphibians and whales.
3. If I could carry my guitar around with me all day and just play and sing, I'd be thrilled.
4. Unrealisitc life goal number two? Jazz musician. I've played alto sax for five years and jazz is my passion.
5. I occasionally wake up from dreams in which I am a bio-male who has just returned from being overseas in the army. It's strange and re-curring.
6. I'm Canadian and damn proud of it. Although I really want to travel the world, I know I'll grow old somewhere in Canada.
7. I really wish I could speak fluent French and German. I'm working on both. I'd give up my ability to speak English for the ability to speak French and German.
8. I have an affinity for hats.
9. I used to be obsessed with hockey. I still like it, but I was OBSESSED with making a legit team. I trained everyday and got on the ice any chance I could.
10. I honestly don't know whether I'm outgoing, shy or crazy. Sometimes I'm shy, sometimes I'm outgoing.

2 ) My favorite video game is Final Fantasy VII, and Zack Fair is my favorite character!
3 ) G-Dragon from the South Korean band Big Bang is my top idol and I absolutely adore everything about the cute little herbivore, even his terrible red-hair!
4 ) My favorite beverage is created by combining one part Mug Rootbeer with one and a half parts Lemonade. YUM!

8 ) More than anything, I want to one day own a ridiculous expensive and ridiculous beautiful Harley Davidson motor-cycle!
9 ) Moths terrify the ever loving hell out of me!
10 ) And I believe that Disney is a horrible corporation that should burn for filling childrens' head with nothing but lies, false dreams, and disgusting stereotypes!

~ Thank you, and goodnight!

1. My music taste is incredibly eclectic. Marilyn Manson will always be the top for me, and my personal hero, but I've spent the past week bouncing around from Frank Sinatra to Otep to Stevie Nicks and a lot in between.

2. Music means  a lot to me. If not for it I would've lost my mind. Singing is the only time I feel 100% confident and damn glad to be me.

3. I also paint, write, sew, and a whole bunch of other things. I'm hoping to set up an Etsy soon in attempts to make some damn money.

4. Cooking is an addiction for me, and an awesome stress reliever. However, I can't bake worth crap. Unless it's brownies.

5. I have a huge, laughable weakness for animals. Dogs in particular. Seeing my dogs, or anyone's dog, can make my entire day better.

6. I spend entirely too much time online. Most of it's either on the forum I run, the TwilightSucks forum, or Babalon (the Marilyn Manson forum). Why? Because I'm lazy, and kind of anti-social, and I've always articulated myself a hell of a lot better via typing.

7. My mom will always be one of my bestest friends. Over the past few years I've learned just how amazing she is, and how we can talk about literally anything. It's a great feeling.

8. I want to go to India someday. I can't even really say why, but I've wanted to for a while now. I took an Asian Art History class and we covered a lot of Hindu/Buddhist stuff, and it was incredibly interesting to me.

9. I love cemeteries. When it's nice out here, instead of going to a park, we go to a cemetery about 5 minutes from my house. It's a beautiful place, there's almost always no one there, and I like tombstones. A lot. Last year we had a picnic at one of our favorite mausoleums on Day of the Dead, and it was awesome.

10. Joel Peter Whitkin, Hans Bellmer and Francis Bacon are my absolute favorite artists. Bacon especially has influenced my style a lot.
