You probably know by now. Quite good. Recently, capturing a fire elemental in a game sparked some rapid-fire flame-based punning action.

What are your preferences when it comes to hot drinks?

Tea, Earl Gray, with milk to cool it to less than scalding and probably too much sugar. Best drink ever. I try to have a cup every other day at minimum.

Favorite simple dish and recipe to said dish?

Same thing that happened to the others. MageOfCakes, Loreni, Hatter, Banjo, and the rest. They grew up, Grimm, forgot about us and our own personal Neverland. Or they're on some vacation. Maybe they're waiting for the right time to return.

What makes you happy?

A Saturday with no plans, hot coffee, tasty breakfast, just me and Inkscape.

What music do you play when you need uplifting?

I have weird stuff. Might be Amazing Grace, might be Smile Smile Smile, might be the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, might be Schadenfreude. It depends on how down I am, and why. Broadway works well.

Examples:
The Old Rugged Cross (according to Dr. Who)
Schadenfreude
Smile, Smile, Smile
This is the Moment

Sorry. What's your favorite video game?

Alas, you have neglected to ask me anything. But if you wish to edit something in, I will do my best to answer it.

How do you feel about minimalist music? Do you find it meditative, uninteresting, or something else entirely?

@v I was thinking of Philip Glass, Arvo Pärt, Steve Reich, etc. I'm curious, I suppose, about your opinion on the musical concepts which minimalism as a movement explores.

I'm not entirely sure what you mean by minimalist music.
But if you mean music that is not complex, then I'm going to have to judge it on a song by song basis.

@^ I'll have a look into it because it sounds interesting.


Do you know how to move a tree fern without killing it?

@V Yeah... I was right, if we tried to move it, we'd kill it. Best to leave it where it is.

It might be jazz trumpeting, possibly writing poems and short stories.

Do you play an instrument, and, if so, which one?

Alas, I rarely have the opportunity to. And as such, know only basic games and none of the cool ones.


What is your favourite traditional card game?

I guess it depends on how you read the question. If you mean using traditional cards my favorite is Speed or Slap the Monkey, other hand-speed based games where I am the champ. If you mean traditional card games, Blackjack, but not for money.

What would you do if you found out you had a hardwired set of instructions you had to carry out beyond your control at the activation of certain phrase words? And, on that note, Whiskey Watermelon.
@v Heh, true. Unless one wanted to keep the thrill of having one's subject fully aware of their actions, just unable to stop themselves or tell anyone...

Yes, ma'am.

(I don't think I'd like it, but I wouldn't know it existed if you did it right.)

You can have ten songs playing in the background at all times. What songs are they?

@V They shuffle, but can't be stopped.

Ten songs all at once, or a playlist that shuffles through? And, can I turn it off when I want to listen to other stuff?

Lessee:
This is the Moment (Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde)
You Raise Me Up (Josh Groban)
Smile Smile Smile (Daniel Ingram? I think?)
The William Tell overture (Rossini)
I Believe in Christ, (Bruce R. McConkie)
Stars and Stripes Forever (John Philip Sousa)
A Fifth of Beethoven (Walter Murphy)
Brand New Day (Dr. Horrible's Sing-along Blog)
We Will Rock You / We Are The Champions (Freddy Mercury. Ignore the people who call this two tracks.)
Handel's Messiah

Given this information, what kind of person do you think I am?

@V: Eerily accurate. Got the name of the church wrong, but apart from that...
@@V: Actually, I've found that the less sleep I get, the more energized I am in the morning. Weird but true.

Male, American, most likely Caucasian, mid-20s tops, unlikely higher than that. Perchance a member of the Church of the Latter Day Saints, and - if I may be so bold - more than just a "Sunday believer". You have been something of an outsider in the past, unlikely by your own volition, but you are working to overcome that. You are open-minded and enjoy a variety of entertainment, 'high', pop and nerd culture alike. As a result you do not ascribe to a any particular sub-group, but are more of a general experimenter rather than an expert at a particular subject.

My apologies if any of my answers insulted. That was certainly not the intention.

If your life was a movie, what kind of a film would it be? And as an extra question, what would be its theme song?


@^: I'm psychic, didn't I tell you? Also, you should really stop doing that thing... It's not healthy for you. Or sane, for that matter.

If you were part of a world where we had pokemon-esque types, what would your type be? Primary/Secondary, for example I'm a Linguist/Nerd type.

Of all meats, I crave steak the most frequently. I imagine a great slab of grilled half-raw tenderloin seasoned with salt and pepper only and a bottle of French merlot, and I slip into writhing fevered daydreams of passion and pleasure for half an hour. Alas: I have been vegetarian for nine years now.


Can you imagine killing a person? Perhaps under orders? Perhaps to save yourself?
