[b]Well, if everybody else is doing it, I don't want to be the odd one out...[/b] Current Display Name: [b]Zombie_Nosh[/b] Username: (your Log In name) [b]Zombie_Nosh[/b] Previous Usernames: [b]Ashy Ketchup, Laughing Stock, (maybe more, I can't remember)[/b] Join Date: [b]A long time ago[/b] Usual Name IRL: [b]Steve[/b] Age: [b]24-ish[/b] Gender: [b]Male[/b] Desktop screenshot: [url="http://www.murakamibooks.co.uk/_assets/images/downloads/1024x768-red-line.jpg"]Desktop[/url] Do you play any sports?: [b]Not anymore[/b] What do you study?: [b]Finished studying a long time ago[/b] Job: [b]Currently unemployed[/b] What languages do you speak/write?: [b]I speak the English. Also a bit of Irish, but it's not up to scratch[/b] Location: [b]Dublin, Ireland[/b] Religion: [b]Roman Catholic[/b] Opinion on Religions: [b]In the interest of avoiding a lengthy diatribe, I'll just say that my opinion of religion is not a high one[/b] Sexuality: [b]Straight[/b] Opinion on homosexuality: [b]To each his own, the gay community is simply [i]fabulous![/i][/b] Political opinion: [b]Irish politics have gotten a lot of good international press lately, but to be honest there's a lot of resentment and anger towards the current shower. A major overhaul is needed.[/b] Opinion on Political Opinions: [b]Everybody should have one. It's important to know what the governing forces are up to; they have your life in their hands.[/b] Operating System: [b]That's Windows, right?[/b] Opinion on Operating Systems: [b]As long as I can do what I need to, so be it.[/b] Do you text/call while driving?: [b]No[/b] Opinion on Texting/Calling while driving: [b]It's illegal here, and that's how I think it should be. Driving is a dangerous, and using a phone while driving is a distraction.[/b] Opinion on Evolution Theory: [b]Might as well ask my opinion on gravity. It's a fact; not a theory. [/b] Opinion on Tasing: [b]I'm all for it.[/b] Opinion on Health Care: [b]Irish healthcare is a shambles. Some countries don't realise how lucky they have it.[/b] Opinion on Abortions: [b]Totally pro-choice. It's illegal in Ireland, which I think is totally B.S., and an outdated remnant of a time when the Catholic Church practically ran the country.[/b] Opinion on Euthanasia: [b]Again, pro choice, albeit in certain circumstances.[/b] What does your user name/display name mean?: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6vqL8X5mDvs[/media] What members would you like to meet?: [b]Well, I guess Voodookanaka and N-Man, although they've not been around in a while. I guess people that usually post might be nice to talk to; Canz, Lady Shy, chibi-master, Heaven's Cloud. I'm not really "close" with anybody on the boards, so I'm not sure.[/b] OB Family: [b]Well, Canz is the only person on my friends list, so I guess him.[/b] Ninjas or Pirates?: [b]Pirates[/b] Chicken or the Egg?: [b]To eat? Chicken. Which came first? Egg.[/b] XL Basic or Wet Paint?: [b]What?[/b] Why did the chicken cross the street?: [b]To start a fight with Peter Griffin.[/b] How wrong was Kanye for disrupting Taylor's MTV Awards moment?: [b]Yeah, the guy's a total tool. You may not like Taylor Swift, but there's no way you can excuse behaviour like that. Too bad his ego and his yes-men probably won't let him realise what a jackass he was.[/b] Are you from 2001-ish?: [b]I am[/b] The Nerdiest Thing You've Ever Done: [b]I was once late for my own birthday party because I was trying to beat the Ruby Weapon in FF7. It was totally worth it though.[/b] Your celebrity crush: [b]A lot of love these days for Zooey Deschanel[/b] [img]http://www.tvfanatic.com/files/zooey-deschanel-photo.jpg[/img] [b]Or, Linda Cardellini; I've been in love with her since [i]Freaks and Geeks[/i].[/b] [img]http://www.topnews.in/files/images/Linda-Cardellini3.jpg[/img] Do you like cooking?: [b]I do. And without sounding too boastful, I'm quite good at it too.[/b] Do you procastinate much?: [b]I sure do. In fact, I'm certain that joining OB, and coming back time and again, are the result of my procrastination[/b] If you could go back in time five years, what's one thing would you tell yourself?: [b]The fun is just getting started[/b] Your worst crime ever: [b]I've been in a couple of fights. Nothing extreme, just a couple of punches thrown.[/b] What book are you currently reading?: [b]The Brief History of the Dead by Kevin Brockmeier. I knew nothing about it or the author when I bought it, but it was at a second hand shop, and was quite cheap, so I picked it up, along with a few others. It's a decent enough read. Interesting premise.[/b] Best April fools Moment: [b]In primary school, we were told out teacher was sick. We were all about to be split up and sent to other classrooms, when she came in. A few people started to cry when they realised that it was going to be a normal day. We were all about six years old. Oh, or when OB put CarmellDansen in everything[/b] Valentine's Day ideas: [b]Dinner in a restaurant, and a card and flowers.[/b] What did you get for Christmas?: [b]A new coat[/b] Best birthday gifts you ever received: [b]PS2[/b] Favourite Sandwich: [b]Ham, salami, cheese, coleslaw and lettuce, on toasted white bread. Fantastic.[/b] Favourite Recipe: [b]My mother's recipe for sweet potato wedges is amazing[/b] Favourite Class In School: [b]History[/b] Favourite Sock: [b]A good snug sock. [/b] Least Favourite Sock: [b]A sock with holes, and where the elastic around the ankle is worn out, so it keeps falling down[/b] Favourite Band/Musician: [b]Queen or Garth Brooks[/b] Favourite Song: [b]Oh, so many to choose from. At the moment, in no particular order, my top three are: Harrowdown Hill by Thom Yorke Should Have Taken Acid With You by Neon Indian Tonight We Fly by The Divine Comedy [/b] Your Theme Song: [b]I don't know... Batman?[/b] Favourite love songs: [b]Bonnie Tyler- Total Eclipse of the Heart[/b] Favourite Anime: [b]On a major One Piece buzz at the moment. It's a great show with great heart.[/b] Favourite Film: [b]So many to choose from... The last great film I watched was Kick Ass. But to ask me to name my favourite film of all time? Impossible![/b] Favourite TV Show: [b]Another "favourite" question? So many quality shows to choose from, it's hard to narrow it down. I suppose The Sopranos, Rome and Band of Brothers are definitely quality shows. [/b] Favourite Actor/Actress: [b]Another difficult question. I don't think I have any outright "favourite" anything. I could ream off a list of actors and actresses who I think are outstanding. Top of my head, Matt Damon and Natalie Portman always deliver great performances. But maybe I'm just saying that because I'm looking forwards to watching [i]True Grit[/i] and [i]Black Swan[/i][/b] Favourite Director: [b]Again with the favourites? I see the remainder of questions are "favourite" too... Coen Brothers or Danny Boyle[/b] Favourite Video Game: [b]FF7 or DBZ Budokai Tenkaichi 3[/b] Favourite Board Game: [b]Scrabble[/b] Favourite Game Console: [b]SNES or XBox[/b] Favourite OB Thread: [b]Padded Room Party[/b] Favourite OB RPG: [b]Was there some sort of OB Big Brother a while back?[/b] Favourite OB Member: [b]Myself[/b] Favourite OB Staff Member: [b]James I guess.[/b] Favourite OB Memory: [b]The beginning[/b] Favourite OB Version: [b]The one with SSJ Trunks in the top left[/b] Favourite All-time OB Forum: [b]Dragonball from way back when. Or the Lounge[/b] Favourite OB Inside Joke: [b]hBomb or kuja[/b] Favourite LolCat: [img]http://www.driko.org/blogicons/lolcat_emperor.jpg[/img] Favourite Youtube video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zlfKdbWwruY Shameless Plug: [img]http://chroniclesofconception.files.wordpress.com/2010/06/shamelessplug.jpg[/img] Other: [b]That took longer than expected.

My hangover is not too bad. The hurling final is on today. Then I will go to the cinema and watch Piranha 3D. All in all, it's a good day. Also, I have bacon. Om nom nom.

This last week I've mostly been listening to "The Tallest Man on Earth". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eYVnRyZWs70 How would you describe this? Folksy, I guess. My sister likens his voice to that of Bob Dylan; I see where she's coming from.

You know, you sure are talented. I especially loved your cousin's driving skills, made me laugh. Kind of reminded me of Kate Beaton; the humour, not the artwork. Kudos again.

QUARP. [quote name='chibi-master' date='27 August 2010 - 07:44 AM' timestamp='1282891481' post='699917'] QUARP! [i][color="#FF00FF"][font="Impact"][size="7"]300th PAGE~!!![/size][/font][/color][/i] QUARP! [/quote] QUARP. Here's the post by Shy that started it all: Posted 30 March 2009 - 10:11 PM Just because something isn't worthy of its' own thread doesn't mean you shouldn't post about it. Use this thread for random thoughts/life happenings, or to respond to something someone else wrote. There is no topic, so therefore this thread can never go off-topic. [Update: Except for LOL Cat Pictures. Those are banned.] . . . We apparently had a mild earthquake this morning, which I slept through. Why earthquakes always happen when I'm asleep is a strange coincidence. I suspect I'll sleep through 'The Big One' if and when that ever happens. -Shy

It is heartbreaking news. The anime community has certainly lost a great man, and not even in his 50's. He really was a visionary. Tokyo Godfathers and Paprika are two of my favourite films, anime or otherwise, if recent years. He was working on a new feature when he passed. I wonder will it be released? Apparently it was pancreatic cancer that took him.

[quote name='chibi-master' date='23 August 2010 - 03:55 AM' timestamp='1282532118' post='699748'] Because I think it might be useful one day. I like useful things. [/quote] Good for you! I know sign language, and it is far more useful than people might think. And, like you mentioned, it is great fun to learn. I've been playing FF6 all day, and can't get the music from the World Map out of my head.

I'm just eagerly anticipating the planned movie about Bieb's life. Seriously... I'm not making that up.

Not until you just mentioned them. I had a look at them on YouTube just now; not bad stuff at all. How'd you come across them?

[quote name='CaNz' date='20 August 2010 - 08:39 PM' timestamp='1282333175' post='699653'] i am gonna bake a cake for my mommy's birthday. (i am not the best at baking.... so wish me luck.) [/quote] It's a piece of cake to bake a pretty cake; if the way is hazy, you gotta do the cooking by the book; you know you can't be lazy, never use a messy recipe; the cake would end up crazy, if you do it by the book, then you'll have a cake!

Anime Series you never thought you'd love but wound up loving anyway.

[quote name='Beretta' date='24 July 2010 - 11:06 PM' timestamp='1280009217' post='697804'] [b]One Piece[/b] - Let's be honest, it's a very ugly series. Yes it has it's moments where stuff can look good, mainly the facial expression/features (except when people cry) but the general premise of the artwork is ugly. And given how I'm all about artwork (first I'm action, then art/animation, then characters) I was throwing this to the side like crazy. Giving the manga a shot I've become a fan of the series mainly because of the characterization. It's really strong compared to other series I've seen in the shonen series. [/quote] You took the words right out of my mouth. This is [b]exactly[/b] what I was going to say. -

Holy cow. Just checked out my own profile. Seems I've been here (albeit infrequently) since '05. And that's only on this username, so there's a good chance that I was around in '01. I was a lot more involved back then, even if it was just cringe-worthy, adolescent idiocy. To be sure, I spammed these boards something fierce way back when. I'm embarrassed when I cast my mind back on the nonsense that I used to spout, but like it's already been mentioned before me; there were some good memories, and even now, a decade or so later, I still pop on every so often just to see what the craic is.

Pfff. Mother's Day was ages ago. Crazy Yanks. Where'd you get that list Chibi? Please God tell me there's not an actual "Tourist Appreciation Day" or a "Visit your Relatives Day" .

[quote name='CaNz']i just heard paramore girls version of it (pretty much just a webcam, piano and her.) on [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zHBvAEDvD2w]youtube[/url]. I had thought it was impossible to like her even more... but i was wrong. on a side note... has any of you ever saw someone who looked a lot like an ex of yours and felt sad. I was working at my restaurant when a girl with the same facial structure as my most recent failure of a relationship strikes up a conversation about how she liked the same football team i did (i sport a 49ers hat at work) while i just sat there comparing the similarities between the two women.... anyways i am on my fifth glass of wine so that should explain why i am writing this, and spell check is the reason you can read it.[/QUOTE] If you're anything like me, you're going to regret saying that tomorrow.

[quote name='chibi-master']Today my stalker surprised me with something. He fracking baked me a cake. How do I tell a guy that really annoys me to leave me the heck alone when he's MADE ME A CAKE?!:animecry:[/QUOTE] It all depends on what type of cake it was. Chocolate? Lemon Meringue? Sponge? Cheesecake? Man, I'd love a piece of cake right now.

Pulling an all nighter right now myself. It's after 3AM, and I'm about half way through. After last time, I promised myself I wouldn't let it come to this again... I was foolish. The only tip I've got is to stay the Hell away from the internet. But, if you're anything like me (and EVERYBODY I know), then you'll be well able to procrastine even without the www's and the .com's.

Man, I would straight up murder a cup of coffee right about now...
