KatonRyu

I should have known someone would bring that up. I'm talking about regular, 0.25-0.3 liter glasses. I'm fairly sure three of those won't harm me

I don't like religion. While at its core, it's meant to be love (essentially it's meant to be exactly what bronies value, tolerance, forgiveness, openness and kindness) the dogma surrounding it has twisted it into a mockery of its true intentions. All those devoutly religious who base their lives on outdated scripture hold back humanity as a whole. I have nothing against people who are religious yet sensible, but I absolutely despise fanatics who try to take away the freedom of others through their own twisted interpretation of their holy books. (I believe all Judeo-Christian-Islamic religions have the line "Judge not lest ye be judged yourself" or some variation thereof in their books. If the religious aren't meant to judge and only their God is allowed to, I'd ask them to kindly refrain from judging).

My kik is KatonRyu, as with pretty much everything. Don't expect me to be very active, though, since we're probably all in different time zones.

Fencing. It's easily the coolest sport I know of. I mean, you're waving a sword at someone. Not that you'd live long if you'd actually fight with a sharp sword the way you fence, but still.

I don't like big crowds, drunk people, drinking, popular dance music, or actually people in general. My girlfriend sometimes likes to go out with friends and I occasionally join her, but most of the time I don't. Most recent example of this would be New Year's Eve, where she went into town after the fireworks while I stayed at home watching Korra. Ideal evening, really.

I'm a fencer and I fence epee. I train three times a week, plus fitness (although I admit my fitness schedule gone to hell and I need to get back into it). I go to every national competetion and some international ones in France and Germany, with my goal this season being reaching the 64 in the Paris World Cup in May. (Given that I lost quite badly at a national tournament this weekend I need to work very hard to get there and even make it out of the preliminaries...)

I don't support any teams fanatically, but off the top of my head: Soccer: Ajax (because it was the first team I learned of as a child; I don't watch soccer) Baseball: New York Yankees As a bonus here are my favorite fencers, sicne fencing is the only sport I know anything at all about: Epee: Nikolai Novosjolov, who I think is the best fencer in the world right now despite not being ranked 1, Pavel Kolobkov, the best male epeeist ever, and Bas Verwijlen because he has a unique style using his razor sharp instincts and impeccable timing (and he's Dutch) Foil: Valentina Vezzali, medal-wise the best fencer ever with about 6 world titles and 6 times Olympic gold, three of which were individual Sabre: Gu Bongil, whose style looks awkward but is completely controlled and calculated.

There are alcoholic beverages I like the taste of, but I don't drink them. I can't drink slowly, I can't drink moderately. I've only ever been lightheaded, never full-on drunk, but I hated the sensation and because I never want to feel it again I simply won't drink alcohol. At least with water I can down three glasses in a minute without any ill effects.

Since death freaks me out I'd like to believe that there is some form of afterlife, but if I get right down to it I'm afraid there will simply be nothing. That my existence will cease the moment my body dies. If immortality was a thing in reality I'd be chasing it. The main thing that elads me to believe there isn't an afterlife is because no evidence for it has actually been discovered. Above all else, I believe in science. If we knew for certain there was an afterlife, death would no longer be a sad thing because we'd know the deceased would still exist somewhere. Maybe the seven curled up dimensions of string theory contain th secrets to the afterlife, but until it's proven one way or another I'm forced to conclude there's simply nothing after death.

Sunset Shimmer ever since I watched Rainbow Rocks. Really need to write some shipping fics soon.
