Seventeen more ways to waste time

[digitaldiscipline]

[cadged from angelsil. Again. [it might be time to invent one, these look familiar]


1. How did you come about your lj user name?
In a pathetic attempt at subtlety, and due to an as-yet-unrealized intent to DJ, I pulled this handle out of my ass rather than be "Rafe."

2. Describe yourself in 3 words?
You want me.

3. If you could go back and change one decision in your life, what would it be?
"Hey, mutherfucker, do NOT buy AOL on the announcement of the Time-Warner merger. Not with -my- money, you don't."

4. Seriously, would you *really* change that decision?
Okay, maybe that wouldn't have changed anything, and I should have remained a Mechanical Engineering/Philosophy major instead of getting an English degree, in which case, I'd probably be richer but even more bitter and cynical. Nobody really would want to see that, would you?

5. If you could have anything for dinner tonight, what would you have?
Chocolate-covered cheerleaders? Heh. I'll get it tomorrow - premium dead cow with good company. Tonight's looking like leftovers & brussels sprouts, which is cool.

6. What is the last movie you saw at the movie theatre?
PotC

7. What is the last book you read/are reading that you would recommend to others?
Any of Christopher Moore's books, or Neil Gaiman's American Gods.

8. What is the last book you read/tried to read that you would NOT recommend to others?
Bad Voltage. I don't care if it's supposed to be a defining work of cyberpunk, it's bloody fucking awful - literally on a par with I, Vampire in terms of shitty writing and awful plot.

9. What is the last CD you purchased?
A spindle of 100 blank CD-Rs? Hey, strigger, when did we meet for lunch in Buffalo? I think that Delerium remix 2CD set I picked up before we hit the comic shop was honestly my last CD purchase for myself. I gave aishlynn a Mannheim Steamroller CD for xms, otherwise.

10. What is the last band you saw live?
On purpose? Lords of Acid. Incidentally? Whoever I happened to catch at C9.

11. Coffee or tea?
Sure, whichever.

12. Dog person or cat person?
Sure. More cat these days, due to space and time constraints. Reading A Door Into Summer was amusing.

13. Dessert or one more drink?
Unless I have room and the dessert offerings are kickass [read: I'm at Morton's, and the Godiva-of-god cake is coming. . . ]. . . yo, bartender!

14. Party, club or small group at a pub?
If I or a friend is throwing it, party, hands down. Guaranteed good freaks, tunes, geekery, and cute girls.

15. How/why do you use LJ?
"How?" There's a method other than the keyboard? It beats working. . . and you people amuse me. ;-)

16. Who are the people on your friends list?
Friends, Romans, and Countrymen. Mostly the former.

17. Why are you answering this meme?
Boredom, and I have been slacking as far as updating it of late.

I found that one when I was unpacking on Sunday. Oh my. It was pretty bad.

oh, it's horrible. it makes Vampire$ look like Hamlet, if only because you can give a shit about one or two of the characters in the latter.

Oh, come on! I liked it...When I was 13!

*hand*nailgun*forehead*

I didn't get into vamps until my sophomore year of college, really. It's only been a decade or so of freakishness. *snerk*

Guess I'm a newbie poseur, eh? *giggle*

[argylerockstar.livejournal.com]

Hehe. Tard.

[etcet.livejournal.com]

yes, but i'm a -cute- 'tard.

I, Vampire

Bwhahahaha... I have a copy also... It was an accidental purchase. No, really. I bought a bookstore that was going out of business and it was in there with the other few thousand books.

Have I also mentioned I don't know what I'm going to do when I move as I need two living room areas like I have now so one can be the library?

have you considered becoming an ebay whore? *G*

"buck books." or something.

send them to random friends as "no particular reason" gifts?
