You just tried to lick your elbow just now didn't you?
If you didn't try to lick your elbow just now, why not?
Go ahead, try it... nobody's looking.
You couldn't, could you?

Hype Life
When did you join the Hype? I used to lurk during my band class in school around 2000, and finally joined July 2003.
Whats your favorite forum? It can vary, but recently, it's been the comics forums. Community's been going through a dry spell.
What brought you here? Spider-Man and Catwoman [this was back when the rumor was Ashley Judd for Selina], but mostly Spidey.
What made you stay? To this day, I'm not 100% sure. I think part of it was the news, part of it was the whole new-ness of it, and part of it was the old crew [Between Freefall, classic Dewkie, and the Nightclubbers]
Who is your Hype Nemesis? Dunno if you noticed, but I have this uncanny ability to get along well with just about everyone.
Fave smiley(s):
What is your current icon? (post a pic of it if you want) I'm afraid I don't follow?
What is your Hype Pet Peeve? Seeing an abundance of shorthand in a post. This is an internet forum. There is no time limit on your reply, nor a ridiculously short character limit, so you have no excuse to be a lazy dingleberry and type "u" "ur" or any of that crap. Act like you have a third grade education. And even if you don't have one, act like you do.

Real Life:
How old are you? 25 as of June
Where were you born? Portsmouth, Va Naval Hospital
Whats your job? Between jobs again, so right now, I guess Code Monkey for SHH and CS
What kind of vehicle do you drive? I actually don't.
Dream car? Honestly, I'm none too sure. Though, if we're going fictional, I'd be an idiot to piss away the Batmobile, or even the Arrowmobile. Hell, I'd even take that Truck Ollie and Hal used to drive.
What is your greatest regret? Hm. That's a loaded question, considering my entire life is full of them. Though, right now, I think that not going right into college after school would be it.
What is your greatest achievement? I know it sounds stupid, but I think my greatest achievement is that, for the most part, I've become a person that, if I was someone else, I could easily befriend, if that makes sense.
High school mascot? Presidential Mustangs. Yes, we were that lame. No wonder Norcom kept stomping mudholes into our football team.
How do you like your steak? Depends on my company, but usually I like it medium.
Whats a bad habit of yours? Feel free to mention more if youd like: Burnout is one of the ones that annoys me the most. Like, a new game comes out [we'll just say it's a Final Fantasy]. I play it and play it. I do all the sidequests, I level to the max, I get all the best gear, all the side conversations, everything. And then I get tired of the game right at the last boss. It's the same with television, to be frank. I have yet to watch HEROES because everyone for like, three years, was trippin' balls over how awesome it was, and frankly, I got sick of hearing about it.
Favorite Place to Eat? Gold Star Chili. God I miss Ohio for that reason and that reason alone.
How many tattoos do you have? On my flesh, none, but I have ideas and designs set out. On the fake leg, technically none, but I've had that thing signed by many different celebs, including Staind back before they got big, Kittie, Hinder, Balls Mahoney, as well as some hometown celebs, such as Chuck the Intern of FM99 fame. He's actually a pretty cool guy.
Misc
If you could live in any fictional universe, what would it be, and why? If we're talking comics, then I'd be torn...but I think I'd go with DC just for the chance to be in the Lantern Corps. Non-comic, probably Xanth, if I could get a kickass talent.
If you could be present for any historical event, what? Why? Hrm. Another toughie. Part of me wants to say Woodstock, but being around all those stoners for that long would probably have me in a murderous rampage within the day. But I also think I'd want to go back to find the first person who thought slavery was a good idea, and stop him.
Name three people, living or dead, you would want to have dinner with? Kurt Cobain, most definitely, because Nirvana got me through a lot in high school [yes, I was THAT guy with the straggly blonde hair who brought his acoustic everywhere]. Probably Eastman or Laird, and Stan Lee or Jack Kirby.
What was the last film you saw at the cinema? District 9. It was decent, but I was kind of disappointed, and I'll elaborate to anyone who wants to know.
What is your favorite TV show? Right now, it's between Batman: Brave and Bold, and Scrubs. Generally speaking, I tend to only watch things that make me laugh.
What is your best childhood memory? Not one specific one, but I loved how on Saturday mornings, I would get up, and watch the cartoons, and we had this guy who had bought a school bus and ran a mobile convenience store out of it and it would always come like, right in front of my house during the first commercial on Ninja Turtles, so I'd move my TMNT toys, get my dollar, and buy myself a Yoohoo and a Star Crunch, and finish my show before I'd go outside and play for a bit, or I'd get on my NES and play Wizards and Warriors, or Mario 3, or Werewolf: The Last Warrior
An embarrassing moment? I remember being on the wrestling team during my sophomore year in high school. There was a cheerleader that I went absolutely gaga over [and to this day, would probably still try to get with her, just as an accomplishment--<Achievement Unlocked: Banged High School Crush!>]. I remember it was raining one day, and the cheerleaders came to the wrestling room, since the Basketball team was practicing downstairs in the main gym. We were all working out, and they cheerleaders finished. Coach, in his infinite wisdom, let us cut a bit early, so we could shower and mingle with the cheerleaders. The one I was crushing on [Jennifer was her name], was watching me earlier doing my pull-ups, and wanted me to help her. So, I did what any chivalrous guy would do--I held her up by the hips and helped her do pull-ups. Why is that an embarrassing moment, you ask? Because at the time, I was chicken**** with the ladies and I was too scared to really capitalize on the unique opportunity presented to me.
Which store would you choose to max out your credit card? Knowing myself, most likely a tech shop like Mirco Center.
What is the last cd/mp3 you acquired?For myself, it would be the Rock of Ages Original Cast recording. It was totally worth it.[Damn you, JP!!]
Nah, I jest. It was equal parts "Oh, this is kinda cool." to "Well, about time!", because I had already spent most of my time here basically backseat modding, pointing out things to new posters, pointing out potential problems to the staffers I talked to [Again, Dewkie and Freefall specifically].
I'll answer that closer to the end, but so far, so good.
I'm not sure, but I always make sure to add mayo to my chicken sandwiches, so that they can suffer twice as bad.
I wouldn't go so far as to say I have "faves", but there are some people for whom I more eagerly follow than others, depending on the forum and the posters involved [for example, I always enjoy reading whatever Corp and Anubis post in the comics sections].
Assuming you mean the first one I actually WANTED to go to, not one I was dragged to because the babysitter bailed on the last minute. That would have to be Van Halen 1998, with *shudder* Gary Cherone on vocals. Kenny Wayne Shepard opened for them though, so it wasn't a complete loss.
I think it was Hinder in 2006. I dunno, but I remember it had 3 Doors Down there, and it was a crappy inside venue, so despite my getting in for free, I wanted a refund. But I saw two hot girls having sex, so that made up for it.
Best, I'd probably have to say Marilyn Manson's Guns, God and Government, followed closely by Ozzfest 2000 [Pantera, Kittie, Powerman 5000, AND System of a Down] Big Day Off/Off Fest 2001 [Slipknot and Papa Roach]. For those of you who know me on Facebook, you've seen some of the pics from the Slipknot show pre-game, with me and my buddy wearing the Joey masks.
You ask me that, and all I can think of is that LLCoolJ song.
You're confusing me with Joey.
Thriller, easily. I actually saw a really badass pic around here somewhere that had MJ as a Black Lantern, complete with his Thriller look. Disrespectful? Maybe, but it was awesome.
Depends on the girl, really. But I know that any chick who wants to get it on listening to KISS on the radio [bonus points for Detroit Rock City or I Was Made For Loving You] is the type I was always told about, and never thought existed, but really REALLY hoped for.
Is the baby John Connor?
TP because it's there, Wet Wipes because I care.
I'm so versatile, so it doesn't really matter what I do or who I do it with, so long as there's no drama.
Admittedly, a bit uninspired, but the day is still young.
It's physically impossible to go gay for Harrison Ford. As Barats and Bareta once said [admittedly about the Hoff] "He is so manly, he has two Y-chromosomes". So compared to that, anyone is a girl. And a boy and a girl isn't gay. Unless I missed a memo or something.....Is Peter still not using those new cover sheets?
Who's on First
What's on Second
I don't know's on Third
Why is on Left Field
Because is Center Field
Tomorrow's the Pitcher
Today's the Catcher
I don't give a damn is the Shortstop

When you first joined the Hype, who was your nemesis?
Given that my face is surrounded my hair like a mane, I'd probably say a Lion. But I'd probably get stuck with an Ewok.
Eh, I can't wait to get back to being Skinny Drak. In high school, I was ridiculously thin. Now, not so much.
I'm not sure entirely, since I've never actually met myself. But back home a lot of people would liken me to Goku from Dragonball Z [Not the movie with the interpretive dance, mind you], because whenever I was around, "it was like everything was all right and if it wasn't, then it was going to be all right".
Why would Runt want 34 cents and half of a 3 Musketeers bar?
Given that group makeup, my first answer based on chemistry would be Bamfer, but he's a bitter old girl, so it'd probably be an open casting call. Then knowing myself, I'd get fed up and just double my workload.
I have wimmenz who lick my elbow for me. Problems solved.
Vodka, generally. But apparently, if I want it to be an especially fun night, I go with Absinthe. /remembers that night in July
Honestly, in a perfect world [read-I don't have to literally wrestle myself to the ground for control], I tend to lose clothes when drinking. But it works out, for the most part.
Eh, I've spilled so much over the years here, that at this point, I'm sure one of our oldbies passed their college psyche course by writing a thesis on me. I mean, hell. I was the only guy who entered the girls' Hottest Forumer contest. That alone tells you something.
At this point, I wouldn't be surprised. I've gotten myself to the point where I can't even look at a woman unless she's obviously over 30, in fear that the 21 year old hottie on the beer bong is really some 16 year old chick with a dad who's got a shotgun temper and four wheel drive.
Nemesis? Probably the lag. And the people who hack our ads.
Yeah, it's stupid, but he had it coming.
Racist? Maybe. I tend to make jokes at the expense of a lot of people. Do I have any problem with any particular race? No. But I just like getting a good laugh.
Sexist? Yes. I constantly get mixed up by all the signals I get. On one hand, a woman wants to be treated like an equal, completely fair and right down the middle. On the other hand, she complains if you don't treat her special because she's a lady. Or, worse yet, she complains because you hold the door open for her because it's raining, and you for some reason come off as a macho sexist pig.
