I'm bored, and the part of the brain that tells me ideas are bad is defective in me, also other people have made this kind of thread so I guess it's allowed for now?

what were you like from 2005-2008....were you ever an emo kid?
 
#6 ·
Not really emo I kind of shunned labels even then, but I was really into Green Day around 2005, alternative fashion (all different kinds depending on the time,) and rock/metal music. In 2008 I was going through a bit of a phase with The Cure and Patrick Wolf I think, although that might have been 2007.

But for all intents and purposes yes I was a 'devil worshipping' emo lol.

How old are you? I'm guessing 25?
Close I'm 24.

How tall are you?
5'2"~

Do you miss being 5 years old? And how would you feel if you were bitten by your couch?
I don't remember that specific year well, but I do miss how exciting everything was when I was a child and how I'd never struggle to motivate myself to do anything. Things were just much more lighthearted back then.

I'd probably set the couch on fire to be honest, because biting just isn't cool outside of the bedroom and some chairs have to learn these things the hard way.

Did you experiment with make-up before deciding not to wear it? And on balance, are you happy with your decision to avoid using it, or do you sometimes want to use it but feel afraid to for some reason?

At about the age of 9-11 I did a little because other girls I hung out with did and it was sort of expected that I'd join in. Later when I started experimenting with different clothing styles I messed around with some black makeup a couple of times inside the house, but I guess I quickly decided it wasn't for me and then didn't use any after that. I also once used eyeliner as part of a Halloween costume in 2010, and I've always sometimes used black nail varnish.

Family members would still buy me makeup though for years, which was a bit of a waste.

I am happy mostly, I have issues with the skin on my face now and my eyelids (blepharitis) and I doubt face makeup would help with that.

I also think that it's probable that if I'd started doing it regularly from a young age I'd have become dependant on it and be too scared to ever change and feel naked without it, just because of the type of person I am.

So I am happy for the most part. It's expensive too so not buying makeup is a plus.

I wouldn't mind using it if I decided to go to a cosplay event some time and it helped with the costume, or maybe if I was experimenting with trying to look more masculine.

wow I wasn't expecting to get so many questions.



Computer games modelling and animation (but animation was a tiny part of it, and it was mostly just making 3D stuff with video games in mind.

A lot of them make me cringe now but my channel name is , I haven't uploaded anything for a while.

Are you going to make YouTube videos again? I'm still a loyal subscriber lol you made some really interesting videos
Ah I have loads of footage I could make into videos of places I've been to, but I've just been really lazy about editing it all and uploading it. I could probably make about 7 videos at least out of it all.

Also I had problems I think when filming vlogs at home with the sound being too quite which put me off a bit because I didn't want to spend money at the time on a mic. I'd like to make more videos though. My camera is beginning to die now though too which is sad :(

Are you bioluminiscent?
sadly no :(

What's your favorite Harry Potter spell?
I don't know actually, the one I tried out the most in real life though was always accio :p

What characters/series do you most like shipping?
I've shipped a lot of pairings over the years. I'm not currently into any fandoms for shipping really though... I've not been watching enough live action TV lately for that really and I swore off real person stuff when I was about 15. Aside from dipping in and out of stuff, the last big pairing I was into was Spock/Uhura in 2013~

Add me in Runescape plz?
I'm still probably going to pass for now. I've kept it separate from everything else for so long, I'm just not sure I want to open it up. I've had the account since 2004 and it's the only account I've ever had. Maybe I should make a new one I dunno...

do you have any special dietary requirements?
Not as far as I know

Two trains are on the same track a distance 100 km apart heading towards one another, each at a speed of 50 km/h. A fly starting out at the front of one train, flies towards the other at a speed of 75 km/h. Upon reaching the other train, the fly turns around and continues towards the first train. How many kilometers does the fly travel before getting squashed in the collision of the two trains?

Decora is kind of funky though I like koteosa better because it's like the darker version. I also like general visual kei kinda clothing styles.

What do you think of me? Do you like me?
Probably shouldn't ask this kind of question :p I'm pretty indifferent to you though, I mean obviously your back story changes a lot that no one really knows you. Are you 'Eurasian?' Are you a hot white guy? Do you 'bang 90 chicks every day?' Are you a virgin? Do you play WoW? Do you watch porn all day? Are you a billionaire? These are just a few of the yous that exist in the multiverse you've created, and we may never know.

Not much really right now. I was watching Bob's Burgers and Rick and Morty (I have a few episodes of that to catch up with,) I have tons of stuff I want to finish/start watching though.

And I was playing Runescape quite a bit but I've stopped for the past week or so.

I have a massive to play list as well...

But my anhedonia has been way worse this entire month for whatever reason so yeah.

You know I don't know, I'm really open to trying pretty much anything though except like... live beating animal hearts. Don't think I can do that, did see that once in a YouTube video though (snake heart I think) D:

Well then when your scrotum hasnt been dragging on the floor from anhedonia, what have you been up to as of late besides the frivolities of passive entertainment streams to kill time?
OK, I will tell you a story.

I went to a Japanese matsuri in London on... Last Saturday with my mum. She told me her friend had asked her if I was going (she's from Japan originally and now we have a weird kind of connection where we sometimes speak through my mum, I know, what is my life) We didn't end up running into her though.

It wasn't amazing, but it was OK. There were some cute dancing mascots and nice music and I mean the tonkotsu ramen I ate basically made it worth while in itself and also makes me wonder why anyone would just have dry seaweed when you could just eat slimey seaweed that has more flavour?

All the staff there only spoke in Japanese, so that was immersive and ordering food was really stressful because after I ordered I had to wait and there were so many people around and I was thinking 'am I gonna get my food :< how are they keeping track?' but it was OK in the end then I said thanks quietly in Japanese and left.

My mum stared at me eating, torn. She didn't want any because she doesn't like 'soupy food' but then she saw me eating it and was like 'can I have some?' and she couldn't because I only had chopsticks so I couldn't really give her a little bit of anything because I can't cut with them, I can barely eat with them.

It was really busy though, so many people everywhere and not a particularly large area either. It was a pretty small event really.

I also saw some human statue Yoda's - this was a significant amusing moment for me - these guys were in the news here a few months back because there's evidently quite a few of them (I only saw two,) and they've been essentially involved in a turf war (seriously they should just get a new outfit idea)

Then me and my mum went walking around later on because she wanted to look at all the theatres in Leicester square, and we stumbled into China Town where I bought.... Not anything Chinese but... A pack of giant pocky. (It's kind of more of a novelty and I rate it less than the small pocky)

All in all you could say it was a very weaboo day.

And I'm going to a (decided to delete name) concert soon. Again. It looks like on the 2nd day (which is the concert I'm not going to,) he was going to play more old songs from his back catalogue based on what I read online D: nooooooo I'm not going that day (is my feelings about that.) I hope he fits more in then the concert I went to last time though, but either way the female vocalist that worked on his latest album is gonna be there this time so that's cool because she wasn't at the concert I went to before.

This is quite unorthodox though and sometimes, aside from visiting family, I won't leave the house for weeks.

What do you do to pass the time?
I spend most of my time on this forum, or talking to people online, and listening to music, sometimes playing games, sometimes watching things, reading stuff, making digital art and sleeping.

Why you dig me so much.??...(happy face)
You don't post much anymore, but I remember you from when I first started posting here. You are like an SAS elder to me now.

do you know what british channel is the rugby world cup on?
The only reason I actually know this is even going on is because when I was at the Japanese matsuri in London they announced that Japan was beating South Africa.

This might be the most information I have ever taken in about rugby.

Have you ever watched Gravity Falls or Steven Universe? Are you gonna be moving in with Hades soon?
I haven't heard of those actually, well maybe I've heard of Gravity Falls by name only? Not sure.

And yeah, you know, I spend a few months with him every winter. Should be good. Sex is pretty... Interesting, as you can imagine from a god of the underworld and Cerberus is probably missing me, he's a sweetheart really.

Nothing for the most part

What is the solution to Hilbert's sixteenth problem?
This is one of those maths things again, isn't it?

Hello @Persephone The Dread, have you accepted jesus christ as your personal lord and saviour?
He's alright I guess, but no.

What degree of statistical certainty do you have that you were comprehensive in removing Earth-based life forms from the spacecraft / rover? I.E. is there any chance that some microbes were missed during cleaning?
0.97% so expect Human/alien hybrids soon when the aliens get a hold of that.

you ever just feel like it's one of those days where people know how to do the stick and twist-y thingy with a knife? Not that I know how to, personally. But you just get that feeling.. ok, I sound like a weirdo. not srs. :| Unless you've never experienced that feeling, that's cool too.
I feel like I'm being stabbed emotionally quite often to be honest.

is there a place in japan that you would most like to visit?
I want to visit lots of places really but Hashima Island, Nara park, Okunoshima island, Tokyo, Kyoto and Nikko National Park.

As for Persephone, what are your feelings towards the actual (all right, mythological) Persephone?
One of my favourite characters in Greek mythology.

Will I ever get married? c:
Statistically, it seems likely. Lol sounds like an 8 ball answer.

Have you ever been to Northern England?
What's your opinion of Zeus?
What's your opinion of Jeremy Corbyn?
I've been to Leeds, I also lived in Derby for three years and spent some time in Nottingham but that's in the midlands. In fact that's basically right in the centre of England. But I'm from Bedfordshire so it was north of me. It's not England but I'll probably go to Scotland at some point in the following years to visit my friend.

Zeus is boring and tyrannical.

I don't really have an opinion on him as of yet. I like that he created a minister for mental health in labour's cabinet.
