Ask a forumer anything...

[NMUSpidey 3,956]

Turkey, mashed potatoes, homemade stuffing, gravy, noodles, cookies.  I'm immobile.

 

What was the best present you received this year?

[Terring 6,473]

A beautiful pendant

What was the most awkward Christmas moment ever?

[The Avatar 1,089]

Hmmm... well, this year I received an "ultimate guide to Minecraft" book from my extended family, even though I didn't ask for anything of the sort. It was pretty embarrassing, because they're going to think of me as even more of a geek now.

 

What's your opinion on the whole "elf on a shelf" thing?

[metarvo 710]

It would be scary to think someone was in my house spying on me.

 

If you have one up this year, when do you plan to take your Christmas tree down?

[Mr Saturn64 742]

Epiphany. (Jan 6)

Favorite forum game?

[UndercoverNinja12 176]

Obviously this one (Ask a forumer anything...)

 

What's your least favorite forum game?

[Ganaram Inukshuk 906]

Counting games because no one can understand telcraft/scorelore/reckonlore/mathematics/base-not-10.

 

Curious to see what English would look like if it stayed purely Germanic? I am.

[NMUSpidey 3,956]

It's becoming un-Germanic?  Uh... non-Germanic?  Anti-Germanic?  I like languages so yes, I would be curious, but it would be nice to have a bit of an explanation on this question, though.

 

Can you help me out on the above question?

[ROFLyoshi 1,760]

Yes. When the Norman's invaded England back in the 11th century, they brought a lot of their words which changed Old English.

Just about every word relating to cuisine, politics and art comes from French. About 30% of English has a French origin.

Do you speak French?

[Mr Saturn64 742]

Oui!

Do you have OCD

[GeometryMath Algebra 614]

Hmm... probably. I organize my books and files from A to Z. (Minus my plugins folder, though. :P )

 

Why? Just Why?

[UndercoverNinja12 176]

Because well... Why not?

What kind of books do you own, if any?

[Mr Saturn64 742]

Nonfiction, and other nerdy stuff.

Ea origin account?

Hmm... probably. I organize my books and files from A to Z. (Minus my plugins folder, though. :P )

. That's not what OCD really is. It's actual anxiety caused by obsessive fears of bad things happening if one thing is not a certain way or another.

[Terring 6,473]

No, no reason for this

Who's your favorite game reviewer?

[airman15 4,111]

Nope, I misuse it! Sniped again..

The Angry Video Game Nerd is always great!

 

What's your all-time favorite game?

[RipRap 4,400]

Jenga.

 

Have you tried puzzle games?

[The Avatar 1,089]

Does Portal count?

 

What is your favorite beverage?

[airman15 4,111]

Healthy: Water. Sugary and bad for me: Root Beer.

 

What's your favorite food?

[ROFLyoshi 1,760]

Chicken Parma.

Do you collect anything?

[UndercoverNinja12 176]

Well, I used to collect Star Wars LEGOs back 3 or 4 years ago. Now, I don't collect much, although I keep magazines I get (Popular Science, ESPN) but I really love to collect books. I hope to have a huge library one day.

 

Do you like Ritz crackers?

[Mr Saturn64 742]

Omnomnomnomnomnomnomnom. Ritz.

Are you talkative?

[NMUSpidey 3,956]

Depends.  Am I comfortable?  Do I know and like the people I'm with?  Then yes, yes I am.  Otherwise, I'm pretty quiet.

 

Do you often go out to parties?

 

Also:  Oh, I see, the whole Normal invasion thing.  I took seven years worth of French in high school and college, so I knew that.  My French professor always scolded us for trying to pass off English words with a French accent when we didn't know what we were talking about.  I was thinking in terms of the grammar.

[RipRap 4,400]

No. I don't have money to give nor to buy a social ticket. I am not comfortable with crowds and very reluctant to go to even a family one.

What is your New Years resolution?

[UndercoverNinja12 176]

I really don't have one at the moment.

 

Do you have a job?

[airman15 4,111]

Summer job, yes.

 

Do you like Winter or Summer better?

[NMUSpidey 3,956]

Here in Japan the answer is winter because summers are simply unbearably hot and humid, and the giant insects that show up EVERWHERE are nightmare fuel.  It is hell on earth.  Winter is cold, but you get to sit in the kotatsu and and you don't have to go outside so often and I'm from a place where winter means snow and below freezing temperatures, and that's just not what 'winter' means here.  Winter here is a farce, and no one seems to recognize it.  Go to Michigan, Japanese people.  THEN ye shall know true winter.

 

More delicious: fish, beef, or chicken?  Why?

[Schulmanator 5,787]

Beef (chicken second...). Here's why:

 

 

 

Would you want a cold snowy winter or a mild one?

[UndercoverNinja12 176]

Cold snowy winter by far! I love the Ohio cold and I wish it snowed more here.

 

Do you play more SC4 or are you just active on the forums?

[JP Schriefer 5,590]

Both, I'm active in another forums, now I'm going to be here

Do you think 'SimCity series' "died" on SimCity 4?
 

[Mr Saturn64 742]

No. I actually like Soceities.

What do you find funny?
