I'm a tribble! Rawr!

Ok, since I managed to have my net down during almost my entire period of Get To Know A Playgrounder segment, here's my own temporary one. Ask away about anything... if you dare (or care).

I think you can just re-ask one in the sign-up thread.

Ok, a few questions:

How do you keep those teeth so white and shiny?

Do you eat smurfs for breakfast or dinner? Or both?

How did you get to be a vorpal fuzzie(tribble)?

How did you find the playground?

Can I have your msn?

How do you keep your fur so shiny and healthy?

Imagine the character sheet of your life. What skill do you have the highest rating in?

What have you done that you're most proud of?

What is the groovy dance that you do, when you do your groovy dance?

What's your excuse for not dancing more often?

If you could high-five anyone in the world, who would it be?

*Bamf!* You're 'ported into your favorite video game. What's your outfit look like?

What's your crit range?

How do you keep those teeth so white and shiny?
You know those little fish that you see on the Discovery channel cleaning the shark's teeth? It's not them.

Do you eat smurfs for breakfast or dinner? Or both?
Neither, too much food coloring.

Related (?) fact, did you know that red food coloring is deadly? They'll feed hens food coloring so that when their eggs hatch the chicks will be that color until their feathers grow. That's how you see easter chicks of crazy colors. Red though kills them.

How did you get to be a vorpal fuzzie(tribble)?
I'm a trekkie and D&D player and so after seeing Monty Python the idea just came to me and made me grin evilly. Never stopped.

How did you find the playground?
I actually played MUDs years before I discovered D&D, and was part of a MUDding forum where someone was talking about this 'great new comic'. I think I first saw OOTS around the 10th comic. Didn't join for another year though.

Can I have your msn?
Don't use MSN, but got Yahoo, AIM and MySpace IM if interested



Do you remember me? I USED TO BE AN ACTIVE GOD DAMNIT.
Eh?




How do you keep your fur so shiny and healthy?
Dragon tears

Imagine the character sheet of your life. What skill do you have the highest rating in?
Profession (writer) I'd like to think.

What have you done that you're most proud of?
I'd answer that if I weren't incredibly humble.

What is the groovy dance that you do, when you do your groovy dance?
A jive in tune to the music in my head

What's your excuse for not dancing more often?
Waiting for the right partner. Found her, but try to adjust to her beat.

If you could high-five anyone in the world, who would it be?
Strongbad

*Bamf!* You're 'ported into your favorite video game. What's your outfit look like?
A pink shirt and a beat-up yellow football helmet.

What's your crit range?
Let's just say I have to hire the Verizon guy.

'Can he hit them now? Good...'



What do you think of klingons?
They're best when served sauteed with blood wine.


What do Klingons usually think of you?
I don't give them a chance to.


How do you get the teeth into a vorpal angle?
I don't do maths.

What inspires most of your monster creations?
That's the strange thing, they'll just pop into my head usually without my thinking about them or anything. Only thing otherwise would be my dreams. Have a good number inspired by them

Actually, I've been making up monsters since my earliest memory. I was writing monster stories since I learned to write. First story I ever wrote was about the 'Sun Flamingo' and the 2nd about a reindeer that fell from Santa's sleigh, became a zombie, and attacked the north pole village. This is when I was 6. I didn't even know zombies had been done before, just thought a crazy dead reindeer would be cool.

Do you still enjoy running the GiTP Monster Competition?
Love doing them, just don't have much time from work any more to go everyone of them and comment like I used to.

What is your favorite candy treat?
Chocolate oranges... oh man.

Could you get me a link to your campaign setting? (I can't find it)
It's in my signature :P

Do you have any pets?
Mysrra
A long haired white cat I found as a kitten in the middle of the mountains.

Bandersnatch
My murdering emu who killed two other emus he grew up with...

Wight
My albino fighter fish that's eaten every other fish he's ever been put with, even if they were 10 times bigger.




What book(s) have you read more than 6 times?
Have so many...

Ender's Game series, Flinx/Commonwealth series, Neverwhere, Dune, Lord of the Rings/The Hobbit, Discworld series, Narnia series, Lensman Series, R-Master, Xanth series, MYST series, Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series, Silent Planet trilogy, A Wrinkle In Time series, Fahrenheit 451, Count of Monte Christo, Dracula...

Same question, but for movies?
The Village, Lord of the Rings, The Fountain, Rigoletto, Signs, X-Men, Series of Unfortunate Events, A Midsummer Night's Dream, Bon Voyage Charlie Brown, Independence Day, Fiddler On the Roof, Karate Kid, Willy Wonka (the original), Neverending Story, Second Hand Lions, Cool Runnings...

If you stick your head out your bedroom window and look to your left, how many trees do you see?
Got a studio apartment, but out my nearest window... lots and lots. I live in Georgia afterall.

How do you feel about mechanical bee minions?
Don't quite give me a buzz.

Did you expect these kind of questions or were you going or more serious questions concerning you, your life or something else?

I suspected that there would be those who just happen to see the thread, spend 5 seconds of idle amusement putting in whatever popped into their heads, and then leave again, never to return, thus granting me leeway to ignore said questions.

Now, here's a really important, serious one, that's totally not me just happening to see the thread, spending 5 seconds of idle amusement putting in whatever popped into my head, and then leaving never to return.

Whatever happened to the sunglasses?

They'll be back, but right now need some shut-eye... then again, tribbles don't even have eyes.

Oh dear god, I hate to get the "not in the right geographical region"-message. It has ruined a lot of days for me. I know, these old episodes are fantastic, I've got the entire first season on DVD.
