  1. Many times actually. I used to be outed at one of my old schools for being one of the only white(well white-ish) kids at school. Some of the teachers would actually look the other way when my other classmates would bully me or any one else when it was based on skin-colour. Those same teachers would also overlook any of the students that weren't their same skin-colour, favouring students of their skin-colour only and would talk down at the rest of us as if we were dumber than everyone else, whenever they bothered to accept that we existed. A different school that I went to had a teacher that was in the KKK(this was a rumour at the time but he was actually very open about it) working there and he would give non-white students a hard time, he would give the kids that were mixed an even harder time. Strangely enough, I still get called a, "cracker" from time to time at my college, I swear, my hearing is too good for my good...This one job I applied for I marked myself as Native American(I'm white/Native-american but I prefer being considered native since I relate more with that side of the family) and when I got to the interview the guy was confused, "But you don't look like a Native American." I always get this one whenever I mention this to people, it gets very tiring after hearing this over a dozen times... Oh and the, "aren't natives always drunk in the gutter?" comment too... I used to live in Canada and currently live in the States, whenever I get crap for being from a certain country I find it's better to turn it into a joke. It really is silly that people are going to get touchy over something as simple as where you just happen to be from...
  2. 1941 Studebaker Commander 4 door... I remember seeing one of these in a mall parking lot and I think it was love at first sight. Should I ever have enough money to get one of those, I would be a happy camper indeed... Though many of the older Studebaker cars are beautiful so it's hard to choose just one.
  3. It isn't that big of a deal. We have many heterosexual couples in children's movies and shows, does this mean they are shoving heterosexuality down the throats of the viewers? I remember Mitch Downe from ParaNorman mentioning his boyfriend in passing at the end of the movie and people were angry about it. It's not like he was making out with guys through-out the movie or even focusing on his being gay(or at least having a boyfriend). The only person in the movie that was disappointed with his relationship status was Courtney and that's only because she had a crush on him. A topic like Homosexuality or Trans-gender does not have to be overly complex or philosophical... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nel883o_6SA
  4. Kira Nerys x Dukat - Star Trek DS9 Éowyn x Meriadoc - LOTR Buffaloman x Ramenman - Kinnikuman Warsman x Kevin Mask - Kinnikuman Nisei Saemus Dumar x Ashaad - Dragon Age 2 Male Dalish Elf Warden x Morrigan - Dragon Age Just a few of my pairings
  5. I'd like to be a Blaziken. As it goes from the super cute Torchic to the somewhat awkward Combusken, it seems to own itself when it evolves into Blaziken. Also, fighting types are cool, it's an added bonus that I can set stuff on fire...
  6. I haven't been having many dreams lately, or it's just that I forget them. Though one that I remember was that I was a Cardassian agent working for both the Obsidian Order and the Shadow Broker(I don't know why the Shadow Broker was there o_0) doing random jobs for both parties and went by the name Ghost... Now I'm thinking of Space Ghost ...
  7. My main Dovahkiin is a Redguard, he recently mastered smithing and one-handed. He went with the Imperials and is for the most part a good guy, I suppose. I really wish they continued working on the game though, they left so much up in the air. I don't think my dragonborn would make for a good ruler, I think he would be a good general or Legate(or doing his legate duties for once). Though I'm sure he would be just as content with being Harbinger for the companions. The least they could do is send some patch in to fix things up instead of leaving Whiterun a mess and maybe add some scant quests that help resolve things that haven't been. I would like the option of going through with Vicci's wedding even after slaying the dark brotherhood. The NPCs keep saying she's getting married soon but it never happens. Also, it wouldn't hurt if they added some more dialogue or some such... Hearing the NPCs saying the same things over and over again can become rather tiring even though they're just there for immersions sake :\...
  8. 9/10 Ruins - World of Warcraft soundtrack Bioshock: The Ocean on his Shoulders - The Greatest Video Game Music Played by the London Philharmonic Orchestra Confusion [Pump Panel Reconstruction Mix] Therapy - Alice: Madness Returns(extended mix) All Apologies - Nirvana I hope you don't mind that I re-shuffled it five times

  10. I live in Virginia currently but I would like to move back to colder climates. It gets far too warm here during the summer for my taste...
  11. Dragon Age Inquisition and The Witcher 3 are the titles that I'm excited about! They're both being released to PS4, Xbox one and PC so I don't have much to worry about and I thought it would be better to wait for reviews of both the PS4 and Xbox one before I buy one. As of late the PC has begun to look better and better...
  12. I have a map of Skyrim, Okami fan art, a Venom poster from '95, some art I've done in the past and a wall-scroll for FLCL. I want to get more posters, cover all the walls with nothing but fan art and posters. Since I can't paint the walls...
  13. My Character from Skyrim: Jelin Midnight Redguard I don't have any picture of him but he's currently wearing an imperial Helmet(closed), Blades armour, Nordic braces and ebony Boots :3 he's been in skyrim for almost a year now(game time). My character from Dragon Age: Origins Malakir Dalish elf, male duel-wield warrior I played him through both DA:O and DA:O:A. After slaying the Mother he went through the mirror with Morrigan at the end of Witch Hunt. These are the two that I can think of from the top of my head right now... I can't recall my other characters
  14. Awww, poor dear! Had that happen once in high school, myself. It's always the hardest on oneself when you put all that emotion into someone/something just to be rejected in such a harsh manner. Chin-up, missy! I'm sure you'll find someone who returns your feelings in kind!

    books Do you read?

    I love reading! Though lately, I've been neglecting my books for some strange reason... I have been reading fan-fiction instead, if that counts!
  16. I really want to see this movie now! Sadly, there are no theatres anywhere close by that is showing it for either dates that it's shown! I think I'll just have to wait until it releases to DVD.
  17. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=06H_6oI4EK4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4sfhbm0xNOc Ah yes, nothing like some good Celtic and Irish music to start the day off properly. Or the afternoon, for that matter... Love to listen to this music.
  18. This isn't really a character at all but the battle music from Persona 4 can become really really annoying after a while. For the most part, it's the same song for every single dungeon except for mini-boss/boss battles. In my game I had to grind a lot so listening to this song over and over again made it difficult to not rage quit the game forever... I love the game, this music though... The mute button on my remote was my saviour. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TzFl6sWHmXI
  19. Multi-Grain Cheerios Cookie Crisp Captain Crunch Mixing all three together creates delicious chaos A good thing that I never have more than one of these brands in the house...
  20. The Ballad of the Wind Fish from Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening. I really like this one guy's cover of the song the best, Sp0tanius: Also the song "The Little Doll's Dream" from the IB soundtrack:
  21. The link you have provided isn't working for me, all I'm seeing is a box with a dark X in the upper left corner. I hope Bioware releases some info on Dragon age Inquisition though! They keep teasing the fans with twitter posts
  22. Nope, no pony merchandise for me. Most of my fun money goes towards buying books. I've been meaning to get some ponies but I'm somewhat of a Bibliophile and my love for books gets in the way sometimes. I'd love to get some pony-plushies though.
  23. I never really felt like it was something that I had to be ashamed of or hide away from people. If someone will waste their time trying to degrade me for liking a kids show, they have too much time on their hands. It's just a show, it isn't that big of a deal.
  24. I don't really mind dogs, it's their owners that irk me the most. While some people are pretty responsible with their dogs, some other people let their dogs run free around the neighbourhood/ never picking up after their dog and treat people like monsters if you dare impose on the freedom that their precious dog is entitled to(I live in an apartment complex). My cat can be as loud and annoying as any dog. I was actually considering getting a second cat for her to play/ hang out with since she seems really lonely. I love my cat though, she's chased two squirrels out of the apartment and has caught around 2 dozen spiders/ insects so far. She's an indoor cat for most of the time, I do let her run around in the grass sometimes. If your parents give the Okay on you getting a cat, support your local animal shelter.
