Ask me Anything +Update

Mon Sep 28, 2009, 2:46 PM
Hay Internets

As you can see, I am back, six days away is six days too long :B
So, what have I missed?

Blame @MegMcMuffin :B

Yes, one of those, given the absence of questions been asked, I figured to do this from @MegMcMuffin enjoy :B

01) Are you currently in a serious relationship?
Nope

02) Have you ever been in love?
Yes

03) What talent do you wish you had?
The ability to draw

04) Is there a moment in any tv show/film that touches you and makes you cry, no matter how many times you watch it?
Yes, but then, I'm a bit of a wuss in that area, I tend to get choked up on mostly any scene that intends to be emotional :B

05) Favorite bands/artists?
I don't really have a 'favourite', more, my most listened, and to that [link] is where you want to go

06) What was the last book you read?
Oh, err, I think it was Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

July 23rd

08) Any Tattoos and/or Piercings? Explain where.

09) Worst Habit?
I procrastinate way more than is healthy

10) If you could only watch one tv channel for the rest of your life, what would it be?
I don't really watch TV, and the TV I do watch, I tend to download :B If I were forced, though, a channel that showed mainly Science Fiction would be my top choice

11) Explain your typical weekend:
Saturday, wake up at 5:30am, leave for work at 6am, get to work at 7am, come home at 10am, sit in front of the computer for the rest of the day, getting food when necessary
Sunday, if I'm working, wake up at 6:30am, leave for work at 7:15am, start work at 8:30am, finish at 11:30am, and then, again, noodle on my PC until I'm tired/sleepy, if I'm not working, then I just wake up whenever my body wants to wake up and noodle around on my PC :B

12) Do you have a Pessimistic or Optimistic attitude?
I have a 'realistic' attitude really, though, if I were forced to make a choice between the two, then I'm an Optimist

13) Would you rather take a plane or go on a road trip?
I've never been on a plane, and I have done a road trip across Europe, so, for the sake of doing something new, I'd take the plane.

14) Have you ever been to a wedding or a funeral?
Yes, to both. Two weddings (for friends of the family), and my Dads funeral.

15) Tell me one weird fact about you:
My one weird fact is that I don't think of myself to be weird enough to think of a weird fact about me :B

16) Do you have any pets?
Yes, two cats

17) What if I showed up at your house unexpectedly?
I don't know, are you staying? or is this just a visit? :B

18) What was your first impression of me?
Forum Whore :B

19) How important is your family to you?
I'm not part of a big family, so, naturally, one would think that family means a lot to me, but, to be honest, I am not that close to my family with exception to my Brother and Mother, so, ultimately, not that important

20) If you could change one thing about how you look, what would it be?
To be honest, I am pretty happy with how I generally look, if I were given the ability to change one thing though, I'd like to bring my weight down to a more reasonable level :B

Probably, but I wouldn't know who that person is off hand

22) What color eyes do you have?
Grey Blue

23) Ever been arrested?
Nope

24) Have you ever done something you had previously sworn to yourself you'd never do?
Not that I recall, though, of course, I probably have

25) If you won $10,000 today, what would you do with it?
I'd get it converted to Sterling, then I would pay off bills, upgrade my PC, get a few lenses for my camera and probably save whatever is left

26) What's your favorite place to hang out at?
I'm a shut in, basically, so right here at my computer :B

27) Do you believe in ghosts?

Nerd

Yes

33) You can only go to one fast food establishment for the next year, which one is it?
I don't eat fast food, so none of them :B

34) Do you believe in God?
I don't

35) Will you repost this so I can fill it out and do the same for you?
As you can see, it's in my journal, which means you're free to do as you please with this :B


Questions and Answers

Be fore-warned, I update my journal basically after every question, and I uncheck the 'minor edit' box, so, sorry if this gets annoying :B

So, I'm jumping on the bandwagon, I invite you to go to [link] and ask me anything, and I'll try to answer every question asked, regardless of the subject matter or the seriousness of the question (of course, there will be exceptions, but those will be few, I'd wager).

The form is anonymous, so, I won't know who asked what question, so go for it.

I will be updating this journal with new questions asked, with the most recent at the top.

Why the hell do people care so much about somebodies sexuality? :|
Unfortunately, you're asking the wrong idiot :B
I'm no psychologist, but I would guess its due to their insecurities.

how old were you when you lost your virginity?
Err, I still am one :B

When you're not on dA, what is your main form of entertainment?
Mainly watching science fiction TV or watching films.

Wow, that cheezburger was gay. What's up with that?
'kay, honestly, bugger off.
If you're not going to attempt an iota of originality, then I can't be bothered to reply to questions containing this topic.

I can has cheezburger?
Certainly

Why are you talking so much about being gay in your journal?
I can only work with the material I am being given, and I've committed myself to answering every question I receive, if you want me to move from the topic, ask me something that you want me to answer.

Why are you denying your huge gayness?
Because it's more fun :B
Besides, I did allude to the potential that I may be gay, so, if I were in denial, I am doing a crap job of it :B

Of course, another obvious option is that I am straight and that you're just wrong, but, on these internets, such thinking is almost sacrilegious, I mean, you, who ever you are, being wrong? It's unthinkable :B

Why are you so gay?
I don't know, maybe your perception of reality is skewed and you can't see that I am heterosexual.
Or, maybe it's that I don't 'broadcast' my sexuality enough for you to work out what it is.
Or, maybe it's because I am quite liberal in my world view and politics, and make no efforts to hide this, and as a probable right winging conservative can't get around the logical disconnection that someone who is liberal must therefore be gay.
Or, maybe you're just homophobic, and as such seek to project homosexuality onto any thing you consider bad to give homosexuality a negative connotation in your world view therefore perpetuating your homophobia.

That, or I could actually be gay, you never know with these internets :B

Is your glass half empty or half full?
Clearly, my glass is too big.
Of course, if I were forced to answer the question, I would have to ponder on whether the glass has straight or angled edges, see, if the edges are angled, and it's filled to half height, then it's neither half full, nor half empty, since, being filed to half height would not mean it's filled to half its volume.

That aside, if it's edges are straight (or curved in such a way that when filled to half height, it filled to half volume too), then I would have to say that it's half full.

There is a scientific basis for homosexuality, but what about bisexuality?
This is a good question, but, with a little thought, easily solvable.
Homosexuality is accepted to be a genetic trait, often labelled in the media as 'the Gay Gene', and, as such, it is seen as just being a single gene by most people.

There's a problem with this conception. If only one gene is used to determine if someone is homosexual, then between 25% and 75% of the world population are homosexual.
Specifically, if the gene is a recessive trait, that means the child would have to inherit that gene from both parents, which means there's a 1 in 4 chance of that child being homosexual, if it's a dominant trait then everyone except those with two 'Straight' recessive genes will be homosexual.

In reality this is not the case, however, with about 10% of the worlds population being homosexual.
This would mean, as a result, that more than one gene controls a persons sexuality and gender identity.

With this in mind, it makes perfect sense for there to be a scientific reason why people can be 'bisexual', they're genetically predisposed to it, just like a heterosexual or a homosexual is to their sexuality.

I tell you many times that I love you but u never reply. So will u married me? :|
You can love someone, but, I'd argue that, that alone is not enough for marriage.
That being, if I like you, and we live near each other, then sure, why not? We could make a trip of it and go to Vegas :B

What colour is the sky in your world?
Sky Blue, almost Azure, actually, but that's variable depending on the angle I look at the sky and the angle of the sun in the sky, but, generally, it's blue. Unless, of course, it's night time in my part of the word, then it's Black, or, well, as black as is possible inside a city :B

What's your favourite colour?
Azure, or, more accurately #00aaff

Do you like cheese? If so, what is your favourite cheese?
Yes, and, I generally don't have much of a preference, I like mostly any cheese really, though a mature cheddar tends to find itself in my shopping basket most often, I also like Red Leicester too.

How many beans make five?
I assume you're referencing and old British expression, if that's the case, then, to answer, not really.
If you want a more literal answer in reference to the abacus basis of the question, then five beans, or beads, are required to make five.

Alright, what's the total surface area of the moon?
Learn to Maths :B
The surface area of a Sphere is 4πr2, the mean radius of the Moon is 1737.1km, so the equation would be 4π(1737.12) = 37919229.5km2. So the surface area of the Moon is 3.791x107km2 give or take a little for error.
Or, of course, you could be lazy and use Wikipedia :B

Your fave thing to fap to?
Pictures of your mum, of course (come on, that was an easy target if there ever was one :B)

Can I has fame and fortune and good arts plz?
Sure you can, it will probably take a bit of work and some time to get it though.


So, what do you want to ask me? :B

I love how technical you are. You should write a book, or do a podcast about all of this :lmao:

I tried podcasts, or, more accurately, just a podcast. To be honest, I don't have a great deal to say unless I am given a topic to talk about that interests me :B

Yeah that makes sense. Maybe you could get some people together and chat about random stuff.

Or maybe you could do it while watching over devart. I know I've had heard fun stuff while on skype in devart with people =P

It could be "This week in devart" :lol:
:iconsine-out:
I'm not the greatest fan of talking on a phone, or on skype, so it'd be a one man show for me.

As for doing it while watching devart, well, I suck at multi-tasking, so that's out of the question :B

Yeah that's true. It's next to impossible to do any Skyping while also watching a chat channel.
:iconkristenspork:
You forgot to mention non-genetic type reasons, like chemical imbalances in the brain and such.

:fellaleft: :fella: :fellaright:

:heart: ~KristenSpork :heart:
:iconsine-out:
A chemical imbalance would imply a psychological disorder is what 'causes' homosexuality.That would suggest that homosexuality can be 'cured' with the right chemicals, or the right counciling (or both).
However there is absolutely no evidence suggesting it's a chemical imbalance.

DD Suggestions Guideline

This is just a short checklist/guideline when you want to make a Daily Deviation suggestion to me.
  • I can only feature from the Photography and, (to a lesser extent) the Photomanipulation Galleries.
  • Title the suggestion note with 'DD Suggestion' (or something similar).
  • Suggestions with a reason for the suggestion will be considered before suggestions with no reason.
  • You must include a thumbnail of the suggested image, any suggestion without such will be promptly binned.
  • If the image is a photomanipulation, or otherwise incorporates content that the deviant didn't otherwise create themselves, then the deviation must list its sources. I can't, in good faith, DD an image without this information, I'm sure you wouldn't like it if I DD'd an image that had parts of an image you had created used without permission, or even attribution.
  • The deviant that is receiving the DD must not have received a DD in the last three months, at a minimum. I prefer to feature those who have never received a DD.
  • The deviation must not have more than 200 favourites.
