Hey jerkwads, I've known some of you for a long time, but only as internet people... who are you away from the forums?  I'll start by introducing myself...

My name is Aaron... this is my stupid face:
I am super serious all the time...

I live in Boise Idaho, it is a decent little city.  It gets way too cold in the winter and way too hot in the summer:

Most of my weekends are spent hanging out with my best friend and his wife.  They are great.  He teaches Art, and she is the property manager for one of the coolest buildings downtown.  She is going to get me an apartment there when my lease is up.

99% of my posts come from this desk:


I work at a stone engraving shop, sometimes we do cool stuff:
Sometimes we do absolutely horrible things that damage our reputation just because our customers have no taste:

My favorite movie of all time is Fellini's 8 1/2...

Outside of foreign snobbery, I like anything from Pee Wee's Big Adventure to big stupid summer movies like Star Trek.  I have a love of animation.  Anything by Miyazaki is golden, and I love a fair chunk of western animation too, especially Pixar and the stuff Bruce Timm has done with the DC Comics Universe.

I love music so very much... my favorite album is Pavement's Terror Twilight:

Lately I've been listening to a lot of David Bowie and Phoenix.

Obviously I'm a big nerd when it comes to games... I've got a PS3, 360 and a Wii.  I'm currently playing lots of Fallout 3 on the 360, Animal Crossing on the Wii, and a little bit of GTA4 and Midnight Club LA on the PS3 while I wait for inFAMOUS to come out.

The highlight of the year for me has been Demon's Souls.  It is the best RPG I've played this gen hands down, and anyone looking for a challenge should check it out.

Philosophy/politics/ugly stuff that people fight about:

I'm a filthy godless heathen liberal by American standards... I don't know how 'liberal' I'd be compared to you Euro chaps.  I try to be a good little Taoist, but I don't have much balance in my life, and I get pissed off quite a bit by stupid things and stupid people.

So... who are you?

Well let's take the Netherlands as an example. The liberal party (VVD) is a right winged party and comparable to the Democratic Party in the US. Then there is the party of Geert Wilders (PVV) (you know the guy that made the controversial movie Fitna) which is comparable to the Rebublican party with an added dash of muslim xenophobia. The Christian party (CDA) is stuck in the very centrum, they either go left or right depending on the coalition. The democratic party (D66) is also exactly in the middle. At the centrum left we have the labour party (PVDA) and further to the left we have the Green party (GL) and the socialist party (SP). So in the political spectrum is: (left to right)

SP => GL => PVDA => D66 => CDA => VVD => PVV

So you are VVD.

If you, rragnaar, are the godless heathen liberal, I then am the communist hell demon-spawn out to succumb the world to sodomy.  Conservative in Canadian is far left in the United States.  Liberal in Canada, is European socialism in the US.  I am far left in Canada.  This coming from the atheist vegetarian teetotaler, and you've got yourself torches and pitchforks.

As a personality type, I would fall under extremely introverted with conflicting emotions.  Appearing and often feeling entirely cold and emotionless, followed once left alone, powerful reactions to stimuli.  My interests, as previously mentioned, include pretty much everything as I have perhaps an unhealthy need to both know and be able to do just about anything.

Lastly, for a visual representation, this page from Lost at Sea always struck me as rather encompassing for whatever reason.

Lost at Sea

Oh, and my catch-phrase is "It depends on what you mean by..."

I am Steel. I am a 33 yr old man from Mexico. I live in Veracruz, a coastal city in the Gulf of Mexico, although I wasn't born there.

I am married, and have two daughters, one is 12 and the other one is 4. I am a physician specialized in Internal Medicine, finished my residency 3 years ago, and I work now at a community hospital (government run) in the HIV/AIDS unit, which has been my bread and butter for two years now.

I love reading, listening to music, and of course, playing videogames. I have too many favorite authors to cite, off the top of my head I can name King, Sagan, M. Cruz Smith, Shatzing and Asimov. Metal is my genre of choice, with the recent revival of old school Bay area acts such as Testament and Exodus being my most played CDs as of lately, although I listen to a wide array of bands from a good number of places. To name a couple of my favorite bands EVER: Carcass and Coroner.

As for the gaming, I own a PS3, 360 and a Wii, as well as a crappy PC with a 128 Mb GPU that can barely run Team Fortress 2. I have a chronic tendency to not finish the games I start, and to buy more games than I can ever play. I have been taking measures to fix that, though. I recently bought a PS2, but it is still unpacked because I don't want to buy new games until I work on my backlog.

I care little about politics and polititians, considering that I live in one of the world's most corrupt countries. Right, left, center, it's all the same pile of shit around here. Everyone is on the take.

Dude, why the fuck aren't you stalking me? There's at least five typos in every single one of my post. Even if they're just five words long.

Name:     Benjamin
Aliases:     Foolz, Foolz3h,
Year of Birth:     1990
Education:      Umm, 2 years of primary school? The two years that I learnt the least. Home Education>school.
Nationality:     Australian
Ethnicity:     Caucasian...with a tan if it's sunny. Oh crap, skin cancer?
Religion:     VG Pressearean
Marital Status:     Single
Favourite Videogame:      Ico
Favourite Movie:     Don't have one, so I'll just say The General because it is awesome.
Favourite Singer/Band:      Don't have one, so I'll just say Jay-Z because then you'll hate me. 
Favourite Book(s): (YOU FORGOT THE COLON YOU IDIOT!) Umm, once again, no favourite, so I'll say Fahrenheit 451. Unlike certain other politically centric books *cough1984cough* it is well written and contains characters.
Voting Record     2006: (I DEMAND COLONS!) Forgot to vote once. Hope to never have to partake in voting either. Remember people that in the same way Stalinism was not communism, democracy is not democracy. Nyaa
 2008 :  Hell, just realised the previous year it was illegal for me to vote! Bet the Sex Party is pissed off now.

I'm David, I'm 26.

I was born and raised in Miami, parents came at an early age from Cuba. Pretty much my entire family, all my friends, everything I know is here so I don't plan to go but that can all change cause everyone wants to leave, but they never do.

I have a bachelors of science from the University of Miami, who I will now be in debt to forever. I am currently studing to be an Diagnostic Medical Sonographer, or in simple terms that person that does the ultrasound. Hopefully by the start of next year my career has started, till then its going to be one hard year where I have basically zero income, which is why I am bitching all the time about what to get.

Obviously I love gaming, its my ultimate hobby. Forget movies, music, TV, for me the best form of media entertainment is gaming. So yeah I am a big time gaming nerd. I guess I am a nerd in general. The movies I love are mostly sci-fi/action. The TV shows I love are mostly sci-fi/action. I am not that into music where I go out and buy music, I have always just listened to it on the radio. I am a huge Star Wars geek, of course. I love sports as well, well watching, huge fan of all our teams.

In terms of politics and stuff, I generally don't get into that, but I usually lean republican though I am liberal in many areas, like giving people the right to choose, basically let people be. I do love this country and I will never leave.
