Get to know me Meme by psion

Since I have a few new people watching me and I just joined Weasyl, I guess I'll steal this from Aelius' account on FA. :P

-What's your real name?
If you talked to me on Skype or Gmail you already know it, if you haven't you don't need to know it.

-How tall are you?
5'7"ish

-What's your natural hair color?
Dark brown

-What's your eye color?
Blue with a hint of green

-What's your orientation?
Despite my imagination producing many of the products of a sad and desperate little man, I am straight. =P

-Are you single, taken or undecided?
Single

-What do you do in your spare time?
Write, chat on the internet, play the occasional game.

-What's your job or occupation?
In my last semester learning to be a medical insurance biller.

-What do you like about yourself?
My ability to draw inspiration from the weirdest things.

-What do you dislike about yourself?
My inability to read people and let myself be occasionally mislead by first impressions.

-What did your friends notice about you when they first met you?
No idea, never asked them.

-What is your belief/religion if you believe in anything at all?
Agnostic/atheistic I suppose, though that's more due to the (lack of) membership requirements then any real belief.

-Do you drink?
On rare occasions. Though considering some of the people I've dealt with on and offline over the last few years, probably haven't drunk anywhere nearly enough. =P

-Do you smoke?
No

-What are your major fears?
Darkness (yeah stupid I know but sometimes you don't stop believing in monsters, you just start believing in ones that are real,) most/all animals (particularly dogs... had a few bad experiences with them in my childhood.)

-Do you have any dreams or goals?
Just two I suppose, get published in the sidestream if not the mainstream and get my piece of the American dream (own home, stable job, family, blah blah blah.)

-Have you ever had a crush or an ex?
A few yes... all of them had moved on though.

-Who's your best buddy?
I have a couple "best buddies" depending on which social circle you're talking about.

-What's your favorite dish?
Pretty much anything with meat as long as it isn't organ meat. I'll even take fish if it's from a place that gets it fresh (like straight from the dock to the kitchen fresh.)

-What's your favorite drink?
Coca-cola. Call it stupid but after four years on a Pepsi campus I can't get enough of it.

-What's your favorite color?
Orange

-If you had a super power, what would it be?
Not the super power of the guy in the latest Infamous game that's for sure, Power Theft is cheating.... but seriously I suppose I could go for the Generator Rex machine generation power. I mean it's essentially the same thing as someone giving me a set of magical legos and telling me to go play.

-What's your favorite movie?
Firefly/Serenity

-What's your least favorite food?
Most foods oddly enough (yeah weird I know.)

-What's the last meal you want before you die?
Never really thought about that to be honest. I suppose something sweet, fattening, and unhealthy because hey, last meal.

-What do you drive and what would you really like to drive?
Nissan Sentra and what I wish is not so much what I'm driving in but what I wish to be DRIVEN in. (Yes, a bit narcissistic but hey, I'm allowed to dream.)

-What is your most disliked bug?
All of them.

-What pet peeves do you dislike the most?
First of all, that question really isn't grammatically correct, so there's one right there. Here's a couple more or at least shit people have done to me over the last couple years that has particularly ground my gears (warning, minor rant ahead):

  • Basically be honest. Talk truthfully, use your words (such as "Can I please play with/in what you put together" or "Sorry, I don't feel comfortable doing that") and don't say one thing then go around saying another. I don't like backstabbers and I don't like people who try to impose on me for their own amusement.

  • Don't waste your time talking about "art" within the fandom with me. Once upon a time, I actually did try caring about "art" in the fandom And I found ultimately found it frustrating and unsatisfying, leading back to where I am now, writing fun stories and letting the "art" happen if it happens at all. I also found that two times out of three, people who talk about high-brow ideals tend to just be spewing a pseudo-intellectual excuse to cover things up.

  • Argue intelligently. Most of you who have talked to me for a while have learned that I occasionally really know how to pick my sources of "sage" advice and have occasionally ended up arguing with idiots masquerading as wise men. Disagree with my line of thinking, argue your point academically (such as "I don't think this will work for reasons 1,2, and 3.") Do not just give me the "Well that's just not how things are done" line or something similar. Because I'm sure someone said that when someone else came up with the idea to make a video game about multicultural ninjas fighting a calcifying conspiracy lead by the Knights Templar. Yeah sure it wouldn't, just how many Assassins' Creed games are we up to now... counting spin-offs?

  • My characters and worlds are a package deal. Either accept the whole package or don't, don't try to force an a la carte approach on me, particularly when it comes to a character's personality. Settings... I tend to be fairly permissive if you come up with a reasonable excuse for exemption that shows you at least read the setting and understand my logic behind it.

  • Read my stuff... at least in regards to the last two points. You have a much greater chance of not looking like a moron arguing with me if you have a vague idea how I operate.
