To be brief, I'll be inclined to answer any questions you may have directly asked to me. No holds barred. I'll try to provide the Jay touch in my reply and strive for entertainment and frankness.

Some question types, motivation or a deluge of questions may delay response time.

Intelligent/Interesting questions only please.
 
What the last book you bought?

Not the last book I read though. I finished this book a few months back. Not R.R Martin's best book by far IMO. Currently wrapping up Forgotten Realms books I bought in the past from R.A Salvatore. I might shortly start buying ebooks for the first time with my IPad. Made a few tests with the Kindle app on it, was able to get a few free ebooks from Amazon, so yeah. Should be interesting. Considering I love the feel of a reading a book with a hard cover on it.

What was the last book YOU bought LittleSin ?
 
Hard question, I recently went to a huge used book sale. Off the top of my head? Starship Troopers...though I know I bought 30 books at that sale!
 
Sorry about the out of place post earlier. I wasn't paying attention and got my tabs on my browser mixed up.

Questions:

If you had to pick one genre for entertainment, would it be sci-fi or fantasy? Why?

What did you want to be when you were growing up?
 
1) have you ever tried to get into the NHL
2) have you ever tried to get into the UFC
3) have you ever bitten the eyeball of the devil?
4) do you want your children to follow in your footsteps
5) do you want children
6) haters goin hate, what you do?
7) would you tap dat ass if it came into play?
1. As a player? I'd need to be able to skate for that to happen. As a scout or a coach? Not my cup of tea and I respect those who do that for a living a lot.


2. My aspirations of being a UFC referee was shortly cut short when I took an arrow to the knee.


3. Is this some type of China sexual reference? Oh... you mean the clitoris? Never bit but lick a few ones pretty damn good in my day. Something about making them go O that way makes me feel like a champ.


4. Honestly? Nope. I'd like them to follow their own goals and dreams as long as it's reputable and keep them happy and safe.


5. Absolutely. Why do you think I've been practicing for that event the last 15 years or so? Bianca and I hope to start in the months that come as she's going to stop taking the pill shortly. Before the next question on this subject comes, we're hoping for the traditional 2 children, one boy, one girl. In that order.

Does your fiancée know about your history?

--Patrick
My history.... what do you know about my history? *narrows eyes* How much do you know?

She knows what she needs to know.

She never has to find out I was a scout. With 37 badges.

One of them was for knitting.

Hell's yea son, Jay got a badge, for knitting..... knee high socks. (they ended up being too long, so thigh high woolen socks).

I clearly do remember that my maritime Alyson Hannigan look-a-like friend loves to read her books.

And dancing to local folk songs online for the enjoyment of all.
 
Questions:

What did you want to be when you were growing up?
Did I ever directly tell you, I always enjoy your posts? Just wanted to drop that in there.

I'm progressively finding myself growing more and more annoyed by the overused cliches in both these genres. "The Prophesy", the force-like powers. young boys fate. These plots are so hashed out that reading is like having a McDonald's cheeseburger. Its alright but once you tasted it, they are practically the same. Fast food junk. Un-inspiring. Filler. Mediocre.

Sci-fi tends to surprise me more often than not as most writers don't fall in the humans/dwarves/elves category 90% of the time. Basically, I'd go with sci-fi. Simply because I've grown out of the fantasy stage.

Speaking of growing up, when I was a kid, I wanted to be... *gasp* an accountant. I'm great at math (was actually push ahead a year) and loved running stats and balances. As I grew up though, THE INTERNET became a factor... so I went towards Network Security. The fact that I heard that accountants may be well paid but their hours are shit may have played a part in that.

Fun fact, I'm going to marry a CA accountant.

So in the end, I got to taste it, in a whole different way.
 
1. What is your favorite video game of all time (or top three if you have a hard time deciding on one)?
2. Monty Python's Quest of the Holy Grail... totally awesome or sucktastic beyond belief?
3. When are you coming to Calgary to hang out and have some drinks?
4. What are you going to be for Halloween this year and are you going to host another awesome party?
5. What's the first thing you notice about a woman?
6. If you had to cosplay a character of the opposite sex who would it be?

I think that's enough nonsense for now :)
 
Not killed it, just didn't have time for it today. (I've been revisiting ROTK 11 all night). I should get around to it. Moar questions from others will motivate me to work on the backlog.

1. It's unfair to choose only one, however, I'll try my best with 3.

System Shock 2. Nothing will come close to this game. Bioshock? It's good but it's System Shock 2 lite. Anyone who argues differently is wrong. Every other game that tries to copy this genre is a cheap copy of this original game. Nothing has come close and many games stole a shitload of ideas from System Shock 2. Words cannot describe how awesome this game is for me. I probably finished this game at least once a year since it came out in 99. Probably finished it 15 times. Love the COOP/Impossible mode of this game.

Anything Baldur's Gate. The storyline is potent and draws you in, the difficulty doesn't pamper to the casual gamers and your options are near limitless. Probably the best D&D game ever put in a video game. My only problem with the game? Consistency spells for enemy mage NPCs make your clerics/mages "debuffers" in your group. Anything Icewind Dale are pretty damn good as well.

Chrono Trigger. I won't even bother to discuss this one more than it should. It's probably the best RPG that ever came out of Japan.

Honorable mentions go to : Skyrim, the Romance of the 3 Kingdoms Series (particularly #3 and 7 or 8), Mount and Blade series and Pirates (every remake).

I'm a huge fan of non-linear sandbox game worlds. Anything with this gets my thumbs up. So when games like FF 13 come out with tube vision, they get special hate from me.

2. It's been a few years since I've watched Monty Python's Quest of the Holy Grail. It's a movie that obviously doesn't take itself seriously and that in itself and the classic jokes makes it a great movie to watch. So, yeah, pretty damn awesome.... but not as good as say.... the Princess Diaries?

3. Not anytime soon I'm afraid. I recall mentioning going to Calgary for an installation but I managed to convince them to allow me to remotely access their site for the installation. I'm just not a fan of flying such a long distance for "work". When are you coming to Montreal?

4. Absolutely! Though the Halloween party will be far on the smaller scale of things (and no tequila this time, 5 people were SMASHED). As I won't have as much time to prepare this year due to my wedding and honeymoon there will be less games to play and due to effort probably put up less decorations as well but I'll still have my wheel of misfortune and prizes of course. I'll probably use my home made smoke cauldron and witch too. As far as costumes go, I'm hoping to do something marriage themed with my wife... probably something undead if I have it my way. However, it's possible I might throw a Murder Mystery night instead this time around. I'm excited to see how that will work out. Anyone have any experience with this?

5. Physically or when I talk to them? Well the proper answer would be, "I'm married now, I don't notice anything in other women".... but to answer honestly... I've always been a leg man, so any woman with nice legs wearing a skirt, hose and heels will definitely get my attention. If I'm talking to them? Probably if they are normal or not. Women are generally to approached with caution (like EA). A lot of them are bat shit insane with temperments that can vary depending on far along they are in their ovulation cycle or not.

You talk to a woman and your eyes wander naturally because they practically let you see their nipples and most of their well supported soft cushiony pillows with low cut tops and they get upset at you. HEY, don't upset at me woman, get upset at the person who unbuttoned the first 3 buttons of your blouse.

The eyes. Yes, the eyes. I'm particularly fond of green eyes and light brown eyes (hazely).

6. Nope. Just nope.
 
You get four realistically obtained items in the zombie apocalypse.

WHACHU GON' CHOOSE?
1. A knife (preferable a long one with stabbing power, or a katana/no-dachi) for silent kills.

2. A reliable weapon, most likely a Glock 22. It's light great for mobility, safe to use, relatively accurate and extremely reliable for long term use. I'd also assume cartridges for this guy are relatively accessible as well.

3. A Medical Kit. Whether alone or in a group someone's going to get hurt eventually and when your enemy can smell blood just as well as fear you're in trouble. Best to be prepared, eh?

4. Max Brooks "The Zombie Survival Guide" or a Sleeping Bag. Sleeping comfortably is extremely important.

Other notable items :

- Duct tape... gotta have duct tape.
- Canteen
- One of those multi tools.
 
Did you eat lunch yet?
I was in fact in the process of eating my lunch when I opened your spoiler. That process continued unabated.

I actually put some imagination into who Jay could crossplay, and came up with him going as Marvel's Anaconda*. There's the name, the stretchy groping arms, and she has a husky build, so wardrobe would require less "make the character fit the player" mods. Plus he'd get to run around giving random hugs because it would be "in character."
