Yeah I'm a lurker so you don't know me. So it's like a blank slate that you can fill with demented scribblings and disgusting bodily fluid discharges, I mean fresh and new ideas!

I keep forgetting about this place. I'll go wander off and hang out at basketball forums that have like five active posters and get bored, and go damn, I wish there was a forum like Horizons Tavern (an Ultima Ascension themed forum that died about five years ago). And after a few days of this I'll remember this place and sort of drift by, but there's too much to catch up on and I'm all, oh I'll do it later and then I forget.
So adhd, basically.

Good question!

Right now Fallout 3. And Bioshock.
Used to play various ultimas, the old fallouts, baldur's gate, planescape torment. No twitch games, just rpgs.

Oh, uh, some hints.
I lived in Argentina for a year when I was 16. I lived in Novosibirsk Russia for a year in 1996. I sing in a jewish community choir. I love tech house.

I was a big Doonesbury fan when I was a teenager...

I didn't know there were JRPGs. I HATE all the final fantasies and their ilk, if that helps.

Mmm, no more that combat is such a central feature. I like more story driven games.
Hmm interesting cause while I agree that some RPG's don;t have very string stories. I usually found FF and other JRPG's to have a strong storyline. I have often felt that western based RPG's seemed to be more lacking in the story department. I know that there are exceptions to each case (Bioshock, etc) I am curious if you have found that to be different in your opinion

Well, I haven't played very many. The idea sort of turns me off. The graphics look stupid, and the crazy stories sound like they've been invented just to justify handing out great big silly looking swords. Maybe I'm wrong.

I think it's the cartooniness that turns me off. Baldur's gate is a fantasy game...

Are you a legs man or a boobs man?

Legs, definitely.

So then- how do you prefer your legs prepared?

I don't eat meat...

Tofu?

I have a thing for tortillas wrapped around eggs and cheese with enchilada sauce. Also make a mean bean curry. And I am the master of fruit smoothies. At work I eat pizza and veggie and rice and bean wraps. And soup, cream of mushroom soup with crackers and parmesan, yum. Also make pretty mean bean and cheese enchiladas.
Should learn to make a tofu curry though, you're right. Yeah, about time for the old Zonker to learn a new veggie recipe. Made some apple bread last week that was pretty yummy.
What's up with your signature?

I think fear and loathing in Las Vegas has resulted in some really hilarious lolcats. Other than that I don't have much of an opinion.

From a thread from one of the earlier halforum incarnations... I think it's a japanese food commercial excerpt.

I'm not a vegetarian, I just don't eat meat. Myself. My son is allergic to dairy and has to eat meat to get protein, so on weekends when he's visiting I eat meat. But I don't cook it myself, I've discovered I can't control my weight if I eat meat. :shrug: I do eat fish.
So I would never become a vegan, because I don't feel all that strongly about it.
My favorite pizza topping is artichoke hearts. Mmm, artichoke hearts...
If I had to do one chore, I would rake leaves into piles and jump into them.

Oh... huh, now that I think about it... Gosh, I don't know. Maybe subconsciously. It doesn't surprise me at all.
Actually I thought it was the other way around.

Hm, I stumbled across Girl Genius... gosh, a year or so ago. I've always been a Phil Foglio (sp?) fan, since Dragon Magazine when I was a kid, could never get enough of that, and then Xxxenophile when I was a librarian at the comics library at Reed College.
Don't have time to play card games, really.
