1 - What 5 things do you consider essential for others to know about you?
2 - If you could trade places with any super villain for a day, who would you choose and what would you get up to?
3 - What's the story behind your username?
4 - Peace or freedom?
5 - Umm ... is Adelaide as boring as everyone says?
1 - What 5 things do you consider essential for others to know about you?
-Well, probably the thing that most people don't get about me is that I am a total recluse. There are maybe three people in the world I could hang out with for for more than five hours without becoming physically *exhausted*. And I tend to think, very selfishly, hey, we just saw each other three days ago! You want to get together again?
-I don't spend much time in it but the natural world is a constant source of amazement and joy for me.
-I'm Not Judging You For Having Different Political Beliefs. I love you! In a rather abstract, non-crepy way. However, I probably will assume a rather condescending attitude towards you, namely, I Will Eventually Convince You To Join My Position Because I Am The Holder of The One Truth.
-I generally assume the best of people, which I guess is as intellectually lazy as assuming the worst, but eh.
-I am a champion compartmentaliser and therefore a champion procrastinator.
2 - If you could trade places with any super villain for a day, who would you choose and what would you get up to?
-George Bush Lex Luthor, so I could use his power for good! And (and this is the Rosenbaum incarnation) perve on myself and have lots of sex with Superman.
3 - What's the story behind your username?
-'Tis a holdout from my DAAS fandom days, which I haven't really been involved in since 2000, 2001. I've just always found the idea of Nigel, The Dwarf Exploder, hilarious. I don't really even know what it means.
4 - Peace or freedom?
-Well, if we're talking Homeland Security sort of stuff, then freedom. IMO when you restrict people's freedom in the name of peace, you're actually doing a form of violence to your populace (literal violence when you enforce those laws). If we're talking actual warzones, then it seems to me that you can't have freedom without peace; and if we're talking peaceful strict dictatorship vs unpeaceful democracy, then give me the democracy.
5 - Umm ... is Adelaide as boring as everyone says?
Short answer: yes. Lol. Long answer: depends on who you are. The kind of stuff I find interesting nobody else my age does; the kind of stuff my peers find interesting I couldn't really give a crap about. I will never be bored so long as I have the internet and/or a good book!
