So...work's Christmas party was yesterday. That was kinda fun. I used it for an excuse to wear my suit. Plus, for today, it was fun seeing the entire staff of a place be hungover at once. Fun!
I need to start looking for jobs now. Dammit, I did everything else, can't one just fall in my lap? Well, one may have, actually. Be nice if the application could fill itself out and take itself to the place. Yes, I am supremely lazy sometimes.
Heh. How 'bout them mnemonic plauges that spread across these kind of sites, eh? Where someone gets "Tagged" and then has to answer some questions about stuff and spread the thing? Those poor bastards....oh, wait, sonofabitch! I'm infected! Ah, well...here we go, anyhow. Dammit,
[link] Ramrider! I kid...I got no problem with this sort of thing...also, had I some moneys, I"d way get one of Ramrider's commision things he's offering. Damn brokeness.
Anyway, here we go with the rules:
1. Post these rules
2. Each tagged person should post 8 aleatory facts of themselves
3. Tagged people should write a journal\blog about these facts
4. In the end tag and name 8 people
5. Go to their dA pages and comment saying that they are tagged and hugged
So, it's on, then.
1. I loves me some Morrisey, and I can do a pretty decent impression of him. I like to sing metal lyrics in that style. Picture Metallica's "One" as sung by Morrisey, tell me it's not funny, yet fitting.
2. At an early age, Max Schreck's performance in "Nosferatu" scared the bejesus out of me. I was, like, seven or eight and saw that, and didn't sleep right for a damn month.
3. While I'm not phobic about most animals, giant centipedes just seem unholy to me, and should I run across one uncaged, I will beat it to death in an unreasoning, atavistic, fury.
4. More than one person has told me that I have the most evil laugh that they have ever heard. I love this to no end.
5. I have seriously contemplated having my name legally changed, and feel like it may assist me in having a more successful life. Like in that Asimov story, "Spell My Name With An "S"" or that one Simpsons episode. Current contenders, "Talon Rex" "Michael Doom" and "Abraham Fucking Tornado".
6. I get a huge kick out of it when a band covers a "Classic" rock song in an entirely different style, and then fans of said song declare it an abomination. It makes me laugh and laugh and laugh (evilly, apparently). F'rinstance, the Scissor Sister's "Comfortably Numb" and Me First and the Gimme Gimme's "Stairway to Heaven", though, to me, either of these is preferable to the originals.
7. My son makes me understand why "Awesome" and "Autistic" have the same first syllable-sound. He rules. Also, he was named after Henry Rollins, and Henry McCoy (Beast, from the X-Men). Really.
8. Wwwway back in the dim, dead days of 1976, my mother's doctors told here that, due to her pregnancy-related diabetes, there is no way on Earth that I was alive. Yet, here I am. So, I'm about half-convinced that I'm immortal.
Now, what lucky bastards are gettin' it? I only "know" about ten people 'round here, so odds are good, if you're reading this, you're next, suckers!
I sung that last line like I was Morrisey, and am laughing evilly as I tag...hmmm.....Starath, Green Mask, Jersey Dagmar, Sticky the Dog, oh-the-humanatee, ChaosDeathSaurer, VenomX1, and...hmmm...MrsHatake (the latter, I've barely talked to, but, she commented on one of my strips. That'll show her). Random fun fact..that bit where you're able to put up someone's avatar, and thus, a link to 'em? Yeah, I don't know how to do that.
Devious Comments
I totally agree about "Comfortably Numb". I have no idea what the original sounded like offhand, but it was Pink Floyd, and they have a tendency to bang on for far too long for my tastes...
And number 8 pretty much applies to me. First I was gonna be twins (though apparently they tell everyone that just in case), then I was going to be stillborn, then brain-damaged, then a genius. I was starting to think they were right on the last one, but nowadays I have my doubts.

Oh dear, now I've been tagged by two people to do the same thing.
And your son's name rocks, btw. Although I'da been worried if you called him "Henry Prime"...

What..? I'm only crazy to keep my sanity...
And, he was nicknamed, on occasion, "Henrius Prime", so, I s'

I love that the A. F. Tornado bit gets so much love, when it grew from a silly joke...

The original "Comfortably Numb"...actually, not bad. Eh, I'm just burnt out on seventies-stoner rock these days. The Sisters, on the other hand, are one of my favorite bands of this century. You get the chance, check out that "Stairway" cover...it lasts maybe two minutes, but it's two minutes of awesome.
Thanks for the tip on the avatars, too. I'll try that out.
