Export thread

The IRC crew convinced me to make one of these silly ask a question threads. So hurry up and ask, I don't have all goddamn day.*


*technically I do**


**hey, fuck you, buddy!

Please give me the formula for the concentrated win you dose your posts with.

One part sarcasm, one part cynicism, and one part self depreciative humor. Mix well, and add awesome beard and pimpin' green hat, to taste.

Did you cut your hair? It looks short now.

Also, what's your favorite book?

Is it true you live in a swamp and have to keep your house up on stilts?

I work in customer service now, so I had to clean up a little. Cut my hair short and greatly trimmed my beard. I've been getting compliments about it, but I do kinda miss the caveman look.

My favorite book is still The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (entire series). There are other books that I probably enjoy reading more, but this book holds a very special place. I read it when I was young, and it shaped a lot of my humor and ways of thinking.

It's not a swamp, it's a river basin!

But otherwise, yes...

It looks very nice. I'm glad you still have the beard, though. It really suits you.

Why haven't you been posting much?

I used to see you more often.

How's life?

Where would you like to retire?

Have you ever vomited on someone?

Do you dislike the milkly smell your beard gets after eating ice cream?

Thank you. Here's a pic without the hat, though with the same goofy face. Two things you might notice:
1) That face I make when taking my own picture makes it look like I'm having a stroke. I'm not.
2) Yes, that's my bathroom, where the mirror is, and the really ugly wallpaper.



The barber called that specific hairstyle "The Salesman."

In order:

I got a job

Life's pretty good.

Not Florida. I'd like to spend my golden years somewhere in Europe. Maybe Denmark.

I've never vomitted on anyone. And since I don't drink (alcohol allergy) my chances of doing so are slim.

Believe it or not, I can eat without getting food in my beard. My mustache though... that's another story.

Do you have a stalker and is she awesome?

Did you consider other Poe based names before settling on Ravenpoe? Amontilladopoe, Valdemarpoe or Thesystemofdoctortarrandprofessorfetherpoe for instance?

Why haven't you answered my question?

Funny story: while I'm a fan of Edgar Allen Poe, my name didn't originate as a reference to him. Waay back in the days of battle.net, I played a little game called Diablo (that's the first one) where I was in a clan that named themselves after birds. Don't ask me why... the point is, my name there was Raven.

When Starcraft came out, I ended up joining a guild called Prisoners of Eternity*, thus becoming Raven_PoE. It just kinda stuck from then on. Even my friends in real life now call me "Poe".


*those in the know will know I'm [SA] for life, though.

Oops, I completely missed it.

Your avatar gives 1+ to intelligence but reduces wisdom by 2.

Only +1? That's no good.
