Re: 25 or 50 Things About Yourself: Discussion Thread

Of course i was just kidding. But i dont drink anymore now. But Guiness is great, though.

Oh good. You had me worried for a minute there.

Let me guess, your favorite Ace of Base song is The Sign, right?

Nope! Beautiful Life, I think. But I haven't listened to them in a long time. I swear. ...Ok...only when I go running...

Yeah, but that clown still gives me nightmare everytime i watched that movie. I even look under my bed while holding a club, just in case if Pennywise decided to pop up under my bed.

Well, you're just being sensible, though. Clowns can be very dangerous, it's only natural to protect yourself. Clubs are effective, but I find water works well too. It makes them melt, you know.

I once babysat a girl who looked a lot like Chucky. It was the hair, I think. But it was kinda creepy, and we were at their house in Maine, at the same camp where King lives. I barely slept for the entire week.

Who says zombie can't be vegetarian. You should read the latest Zombies Quarterly in the article written by Dr. Not Quite Dead titled "Vegetables Gives Your Undead Skin That Living Glow".

Zombie Quarterly? Interesting, I'll keep an eye out for it. But don't zombies have to eat brains to keep their arms from falling off? The consumption of brains isn't generally a very vegetarian thing to do, you know. But perhaps tofu would do just as well?

You do? Then why did you buy it in the first place.

Well, I can dream, can't I?! Anyway, I'm taking Spanish, so maybe someday...
Besides, that just how obsessed with books I am, I'll buy one even if it's in Farsi

Coffee can cause insomnia? I dont know what's wrong with me, but lately, everytime i drink coffee i feel sleepy.
What's tachycardia?

well,there`s a medical explaination for that.in short,coffee makes you feel relax.that`s probably why u feel sleepy.
and tachycardia is an abnormally rapid heart rate

8. I was in the stands when Clemens struck out 20 in a game the first time.

Big time sox fan. Can't wait to see what Dice K does in the bronx. I'm guessing you're not a yankees fan, right?

Re: 25 or 50 Things About Yourself: Discussion Thread

course I'm not a yankees fan!!

yeah I'm really excited for this weekend, hopefully my cable's going to pull through and start working, it's been out all week

anyway, nice to know there's another sox fan around here

and a long time is.. what? 20 minutes?

Water makes them melt? really? Thanks for the tips.
My cousin used to own a doll that looks like the bride of Chucky, i could've swear that doll's eyes can move.

Hey, how do you know that tofu can replace brain? You're a zombie after all. Btw, cauliflower works too.

Let me know when you can read them in Spanish, and Farsi too.

Ah, no wonder my brain works better after a cup of coffee (if i havent sleep after drinking it ). But lately i noticed something else, i get sleepy with just the smell of freshly brewed coffee.

2. If I had a super power, it would be looking good in any pair sunglasses that you throw my way.

even pink ones?

6. I got hit by a car once while running across a street to return a DVD to the video store. No injury, but I swear that the old couple driving sped up when they saw me coming.

so, you have two super powers after all.

7. I love everything about Dunkin Donuts and would never live in a place where I couldn't walk to one (or have a short drive).

Me too. I just love anything with chocolate from Dunkin.

12. I've seen a UFO

Is that before or after you got your superpowers?

14. I can't stand people who quote Chey Chase movies and think they're funny.

Hey, we can do that. We don't even have to have a reason.

23. My last girlfriend dumped me the day I hurt my back in a car accident. Not a good day.

At least she didnt tell you that she dumped you because the guy whose car you crashed in to/who crashed your car is cuter.

25. I've eaten a 5lb cheeseburger with 5lb of fries (in one sitting). Eagles Deli, Cleveland Circle/Brighton, MA. My picture is one the wall, check it out.

And those pounds never left you even until now.

Phheeeww. Didn't think I'd make it to 25. I think I've shared enough for today.

We're glad you did.

Good to hear, good to hear. I'm hoping the cable situation works out for you Go Sox!

Also, we both share a love of Guinness (there's even a spot at fenway these days where you can get one). If being a writer is what you want to do, you should definetly go for it. I'm a writer (although a lot of times I just write short sentences). The toughest part is having people criticize your work, but once you get used to it, it only helps you to find the style that works for you.

even pink ones?

Not really my color, but if challenged, I can rock the pink shades with the best of them.

so, you have two super powers after all.

I don't like to brag, but yeah.

Me too. I just love anything with chocolate from Dunkin.

Large regular, blueberry muffin (every morning).

Is that before or after you got your superpowers?

Before..no wait, after. Acutally, I'm really sure. Hmmm.

Hey, we can do that. We don't even have to have a reason.

That's cool, as long it's a quote from Fletch, which was his finest work.

At least she didnt tell you that she dumped you because the guy whose car you crashed in to/who crashed your car is cuter.

Nah, she dumped me because I wasn't well behaved at her sister's wedding. Long story. My car (brand new) ended getting killed by some chick who was talking on the cell phone while driving her SUV. She just got her license the week before and nailed me as I was pulling into a parking lot. Man she was crying and I was the one who left in an ambulance!

And those pounds never left you even until now.

I couldn't eat another cheeseburger for a good six months. Well worth it though. I even thought of becoming a part time professional eater. If the weather wasn't crappy, I'd go for a run tomorrow morning!

We're glad you did.

Thank you, thank you. I might see if I can go the full 50. We'll see what happens. Got to watch the sox now, though.

really?! that's so cool! yup, I just had one tonight, after a long week it was like heaven. A Guinness and the Sox annihilating the Yankees, what more could you want out of a friday night

what kind of writing do you do? yeah, I've always loved writing but I get really nervous about having to share it. One of my professors wants me to take this creative non-fiction class this summer, but it's graduate level so I'm kinda intimidated...

And Ichi, I still can't believe coffee makes you sleepy, that's weirder than a zombie eating cauliflower

It still does, last night after coming home from work i logged in to MH. After posting a bit here and there, i decided a big cup of coffee would be great. About 30 seconds after i put the fresh cup on my desk, i fell asleep. What's wrong with zombies eating cauliflower? it almost looks like brain.

Yup, that's a great way to end the week. The irish pub stand at Fenway is near Section 19 (which is in the concourse area behind home plate). They have Harp and Smithwick's (as well as Guinness), but I keep missing out because I've sat in the bleachers that past few times I've gone.

I work as a copywriter at an ad agency. (I actually love what I do, most of the time). It's definetly not one of the serious careers with the label 'writer' attached to it, but there's still a competitive creative environment where your work can get blasted by everyone.

Wow, is that going to be a creative journalism type of class? That sounds like a fun subject to take.

There's nothing wrong with zombies eating cauliflower, it's just a bit out of the ordinary. Like vampires drinking fruit juice, or people falling asleep from coffee. Maybe if you drank herbal tea, you'd be up forever? Or maybe you just need more sleep? Cauliflower does look like brain, though. I never liked it much, anyway

Cool! Good to know, I'm hoping to get up there this summer. That's if I can be organized enough, planning ahead isn't one of my strengths

Wow, is that going to be a creative journalism type of class? That sounds like a fun subject to take.

I think it's purely creative, I wouldn't be very good at journalistic writing. It's a very trendy class, though, right now a lot of universities are offering it. Some of my friends have taken it, and I guess it's just a writing about your life, creatively, kind of thing. Not sure my life has really been interesting enough to write about, but oh well. Maybe I'll just creatively exaggerate

25. i like to watch romantic comedy movies. hugh grant and adam sandler are my favourite.

I love Adam Sandler! You must be a very cool person. I was just thinking, it's about time for me to watch Billy Madison again, it's one of my favorites

Re: 25 or 50 Things About Yourself: Discussion Thread

Bandung is known as The City of Flowers, not for the vegetations, but all the pretty flowers (girls). That's why i usually go to Bandung on vacations, not just for the shopping but also for the girls. And my last two gf's comes from Bandung.
Let me know when you're in Jakarta again, i'll treat you to the best Martabak Keju in town and the best place to eat javanese food.

Re: 25 or 50 Things About Yourself: Discussion Thread

i think the main reason why i like comedy is that i am a comedian myself . whenever my fren spoke to me, they kind a have a habit to laugh a lot.

i'm not too sure about being cool part. if a funny guy is a cool guy, then i might be cool to some extent.

Spoiler

i hope i can go to jakarta in near future. however i'll be staying in uk during the summer breaks. got some projects to be done. i'll be visiting germany in the summer and they said that there's a lot of indonesian in germany. i hope i'll met few of em there.
