Seems like everyone's coming back

1. What do you do? (Hobbies, job)
I'm unemployed. I've taken some stabs at making music, and I'm decent, but not good enough to be at all remarkable. I play bass and I'm also into EDM. I got into bass due to gothic rock (big surprise) and EDM through EBM (who would've guessed? 9_9 )

I like nature, I smoke too much, I have a goth cat who runs in every time I put on Bauhaus.

I want to figure out some way to live without having a "job." It feels too pointless to me. I hate the key principles money is founded on. When you reroute solidarity into an external form, those without it can't produce.
Unfortunately, we live in a capitalistic society. I'm even a product of it, some spooky consumer dood. I'd love to discuss alternative moneymaking. ><

2. Where are you from?
Boston. Or R'lyeh. Take your pick.

3. Who is your favorite author?
Fiction is for those who cannot create wonder in their own lives. Nonfiction is a distraction from the real issues.

But I think zines are pretty cool :P

4. What are your favorite films?
Requiem for a Dream, American History X, Fight Club, ";"

5. What music do you want played at your wedding?
Why are you asking me about getting married? are you coming on to me...?

6. At your funeral?
Who cares?

7. This IS a gothic website, so... how do you want to die?
In a cool way. Like smoking so hard that my lungs tear causing me to asphyxiate on my own blood.

Or a unicorn stampede.

8. What kind of casket would you want?
CRYOGENIC

9. What's your FAVORITE outfit?
Shirt, pants, shoes. Can we revise this questionnaire?
It's kinda contrived in retrospect.

10. What's one thing you miss about being a little kid?
Being motivated by emotion over economy.

11. What's your favorite band?
That's hard one. You can have a list. In no order.
Bong-Ra
Shitmat
Bauhaus
Alec Empire/ATR
Aphex Twin
Underworld

I've been listening to a lot of DnB and experimental recently.

12. What kind of education do you have? What is/was/will be your major?
High school. Minor glassblowing experience. I plan on taking more glassblowing course, as well as flameworking.
Merely plans. No way of putting them into action.

13. Why did you join?
Nostalgia/conversation/boredom/entertainment&fun

14. If the first 13 questions didn't give it away. What is your gender?
eunuch

Hey, Maggot, it's genuinely good to see you creep back into this place.

Welcome back!

I remember you, but not a heap about you.

Gudday. Expect to be mildly entertained.

MAGGOT! It's nice having another Aspergerian back on the forum. I don't suppose it would be inappropriate to ask for your email.

Welcome back rivethead! Let's go terrorize the intro forum like old times!
And I like your answers to 5 and 8. The glassblowing is wicked cool too.
You can make a fortune making bongs and glass hummingbirds.
