One that comes to mind is fairy tales. I've been fascinated with them since I was a kid, and especially since I discovered the original, non-bowdlerized versions. I actually recognize hundreds (maybe even thousands) of fairy tales, way beyond the ones that everyone knows. I've read fairy tales...
I'm also really worried about school shootings in particular, and this one kinda has personal resonance with me because my mom works in a school and I want her to be safe. Remember, not just students die in school shootings - sometimes school staff do too. Despite living in a relatively safe...
A lot of the music I have on my iPod is probably stuff you wouldn't expect to see on the same iPod. I do have quite a few classic rock songs on there, as well as modern, mainstream pop music.
My interest and commitment to The Tower of Druaga might come off as a bit weird, especially because...
I live in the United States, where gun control is more of an issue than anywhere else on earth. Here it's practically impossible to pass legislation for tighter gun control because of the pro-gun lobby who use and abuse the 2nd Amendment. Whenever there's a mass shooting (and because this is...
I'm actually not from NYC proper - I live on Long Island, which is to the east of NYC. NYC is basically our gateway to the rest of the country.
Close enough, though. I've been to NYC countless times.
In terms of soda, I mostly like Coca-Cola and Pepsi, though I'm also fond of Fanta and Crush (I'm a big fan of fruit-flavored sodas). I don't have a preference for whether it's caffeinated or not. I tend to prefer diet soda because that's usually what my mom buys (I still live with my mom and...
Actually, most Hispanic people in the US don't use the term Latinx, and some of them actually hate the term. I live in an area that's about 20 percent Hispanic and I've never heard anyone around here use the world Latinx. They use Hispanic, Latino/Latina, Spanish, or whatever country they come...
1, Not really.
2. I think it's really unnecessary to genderbend important characters, especially if there's already decent characters of the opposite sex. For example, Link and Mario do not need to be female - the Zelda and Mario franchises already have plenty of female characters. (And for the...
How tall are you? You can list your height in inches, centimeters, or both.
I'm about 6'1". I'm the biggest person in my immediate family - I'm about two inches taller than my father and nearly a foot taller than my mother and older sister. I'm also a lot heavier than both my parents.
I remember once when I was in high school I had an English teacher who was a real jerk. One day, I lost control of my temper, threw myself on the floor, and kicked him in the leg. I was very upset about it, especially because that's what got me sent to an alternative school for the remainder of...
I actually like The Tower of Druaga. I know it's a very infuriating game, but I love the concept and I really enjoy the characters. Plus Gilgamesh (aka Gil) was one of my first video game crushes - that's why he's my avatar.
Another unpopular opinion: I like mustaches better than beards. I wear...
Prince Lutin is the name of a fairy tale by Madame d'Aulnoy, one of my favorite writers. It's about a prince who can turn invisible with the power of a magic red hat.
- I don't give a fuck about JoJo's Bizarre Adventure.
- Dark-haired women are more attractive than blonde women.
- I wish there was more works of fiction that showed good stepmothers. Note how in so many stories with dead moms, the father never remarries unless it's to some absolute bitch?
- I...
My user name comes from a French fairy tale called Le Prince Lutin (known in English as The Imp Prince) by Madame d'Aulnoy, one of my favorite writers. It's about a prince who can turn invisible with the power of a magical red hat. I used to use it as a pen name on FF.net.
