Shockingly tasty!
 
...Though it is advised that you don't lick on the first date. That's just unhygienic.

Strange and potentially awkward wordplay aside, it's a pleasure to meet those of you who actually clicked on that thread title. I generally like to introduce myself as Red, Faith, or any mangling of my username you can think of. As for this whole "bio" thing, well... I'll cover the truly important bits, and let you guess the rest. Or you could, you know, actually say something to me. I don't bite. Unless you like that sort of thing.

Who
We already covered the names, so all that's left to add are a few personal tidbits. I like imported stuff, whether it be music, television, fashion or cuisine. America is sadly lacking in cultural creativity, but it has it's pleasures as the world's greatest mixing pot.

My tastes in music are wide and varied, but I have a distinct preference for things that focus on the human condition and the darker sides of the mind. Mama was born a flower child, but was a little too late for the movement. I was listening to Pink Floyd, Queensryche, White Snake and occasionally The Cure before I could read. I branched out from there, and the only thing my mother and I seem to have in common nowadays is our general hatred of pop music.

As for literature, my childhood favorites were authored by Isaac Asimov and Orson Scott Card, thanks to mother's latent Trekkie-ism. Now my collection spans across many genres, but they have certain themes in common.

I have been skirting the Gothic community for a while now, and have only just recently begun to truly test the waters. This just seemed like the ideal place to be broken in.

What
I am a barely legal student at present. I am also a chocoholic, if you couldn't tell, who happens to be nocturnal. My personality is chaotic at best, and cynical at worst.

Where
I live in a very, very small town in the southern United States. People have those funny little accents, and any sort of little niche of counterculture is a rare find. I will soon be moving to a more densely populated area, so hopefully it will be easier to get my hands on the things that I really like.


Hopefully I haven't made too much of an ass of myself, but unfortunately, I'm only human. >;3

Welcome to GNet.

I feel a strange urge to strangle somebody.

Deadmanwalking_05 12-13-2008 04:41 AM

Is there somthing everybody should know?

If so do share.

Shoccolate 12-13-2008 04:51 AM

Well, if this isn't interesting and somewhat confusing.

At any rate, it is a pleasure to meet both of you. I think.

Ah, but it's so much more fun to watch people squirm with unfulfilled curiosity.

Now everything you ever post I will hear in a southern belle accent :D

You mentioned you like imported music and television, any favourites?

PinstripesAndPithHelmets 12-13-2008 06:24 AM

Welcome. I hope you like the forum.

And if Shocc turns out to be a guy? In your case...probably so. ;)

Ha! Fortunately, I lose what little accent I have whenever I'm out of the area for more than a week. It comes from having an interest in other languages, I suppose. I spend more time talking to people who speak with Russian, Spanish and Vietnamese accents.

I'm currently somewhat obsessed with Japan, so BUCK-TICK, Gackt, L'arc~en~Ciel, Gazette... The usual stuff. I still have my Rammstein albums though. ;3

I notice that your avatar is from Mononoke. Good show. Unfortunate that the only stuff you can get around here is Naruto, Bleach and Dragonball Z. I mean, if you must watch pseudo-ninjas beat the crap out of one another, pick something that is actually set in Japan. Basilisk is pretty good for that.

I should probably stop going off on tangents like that. Meh.

Loads of fun, isn't it? Hey, maybe we should compare accents sometime. Mine gets pretty strong with a little liquor. Not that I actually drink. That would just be wrong, you know?


Again, nice to meet everybody!

Gotta love the gay demons! I'm more of a Yami no Matsuei person myself. Loveless wasn't too bad either.

No, but I have a feeling that I'm about to.
