1. What was your very first car or motorbike?

No.

2. What's your all-time favourite video or computer game?

No.


Oh alright Battlefront II I guess.

3. Name one country you really hate (and if you like, say why)

The United States because of all the willfull idiots.

4. What was/is your worst subject at school/college?

I was generally pretty solid all around. I guess biology in high school because of all the goddamn craft projects I was lazy on. I had a ****ty political science professor who didn't prepare us for the tests well at all and her syllabus was weird and all over the place that made the class hard.

5. Do you think DST is a good thing, or a bad thing?

Not a fan of frats.

6. What's your main medium for watching TV programmes/films etc?

Overall watching would be laptop, television shows is mainly on televisions that someone else is watching.

1. What was your very first car or motorbike?

1987 Toyota Corolla

2. What's your all-time favourite video or computer game?

Man, I don't know, but let's just say the Mass Effect trilogy. That game took over my life in a more immense way than maybe any other.

3. Name one country you really hate (and if you like, say why)

I don't hate any countries. Why would I hate a country? Certain countries have more interesting cultures for me personally (Japan, Germany, Rome), but we're all the same DNA so to hate one country over all the other human beings that are just as stupid is stupid.

4. What was/is your worst subject at school/college?

Math? I suck at math. Give me the formula and a pencil and paper and I'm good, but make me do it in my head and after two calculations the first calculation falls right the **** out of my head and I need to start over, so I just need paper and pencil.

5. Do you think DST is a good thing, or a bad thing?

Of course I hate having to wake up an hour earlier, but I love having to wake up an hour later, so I'd say the whole thing is annoying even if I understand why it exists.

6. What's your main medium for watching TV programmes/films etc?[/QUOTE]

Torrent atm, but also Netflix so the internet in general. Haven't watched TV on TV in years, and I only go to the movies maybe once a month if that, whereas I watch pirated movies quite a bit more.

1. What was your very first car or motorbike?


I started driving late in life (age 27). My first car was a 1983 Chevette that kept breaking down on me. I fared better a couple years later with a brand new 1991 Nissan Sentra.

2. What's your all-time favourite video or computer game?

Legend of Zelda

3. Name one country you really hate (and if you like, say why)


I don't hate any country, I only hate leaders. I guess my favorite country is France if only because I know about three words in French despite having taken four years of it.

4. What was/is your worst subject at school/college?

Geometry. I got my only C in that class.

5. Do you think DST is a good thing, or a bad thing?


Ah, more human manipulation. If they're going to do it, they should do it all year.


6. What's your main medium for watching TV programmes/films etc?

Well, there is this obscure invention. I think they call it a television.

1. What was your very first car or motorbike?

I don't have a driver's license. Until half a year ago, I didn't even have a bicycle for more than 10 years. I walk a LOT and intend to live in bigger cities for the rest of my life if I can, so perhaps I will never need a car.

2. What's your all-time favourite video or computer game?

That's a tough one. It's going to be any one of the following: System Shock (DOS), Final Doom (DOS), Rise of the Triad (DOS), Armored Core 5 (Xbox 360), The King of Fighters XIII (Xbox 360), Makai Kingdom (Playstation 2), Azure Dreams (Playstation 1) or Samurai Warriors 2 (Playstation 2).
EDIT: This is really missing two of my favorite genres, stealth and scrolling arcade shooters, so I add Shinobido: Way of the Ninja (Playstation 2) and G-Darius (Playstation 1).

3. Name one country you really hate (and if you like, say why)

I don't hate any country but I hate country.

4. What was/is your worst subject at school/college?

I really, really sucked at German. Could never get that whole der/die/das thing down.

5. Do you think DST is a good thing, or a bad thing?

Seems like a complex solution to a simple problem. Why not just meet later/earlier at work during half the year and such?

6. What's your main medium for watching TV programmes/films etc?

Films and series on my DVD player + TV. That's it. I don't have any channels on my TV and I don't use any streaming services on my PC. Sometimes I put an anime DVD in my laptop when it is region 1 and therefore won't play in my region 2 DVD player.

1. What was your very first car or motorbike?

None yet, but I'm dreaming of one of these.

Spoiler for zoom zoom:


2. What's your all-time favourite video or computer game?

I don't play them on my own. NHL and MLB are fun if I'm at a friend's house.

3. Name one country you really hate (and if you like, say why)

I feel a lot of peer pressure from my German, Scottish, Welsh, and Irish ancestors to say England, but it's a lovely place. I guess maybe North Korea? I don't hate the country as much as I think their dictator is a tyrant. Hate's a bad thing imo.

4. What was/is your worst subject at school/college?

Piano practical (as opposed to theory) is the only thing I've ever scored below 90 in.

5. Do you think DST is a good thing, or a bad thing?

It seems to work well here.

6. What's your main medium for watching TV programmes/films etc?

I haven't watched a film or a TV show at home in ages, so probably the theatre.

1. What was your very first car or motorbike?



for a ****box car the 2.7L V6 engine was actually pretty nice. definitely more power than i needed in my first vehicle.

2. What's your all-time favourite video or computer game?

really tough question this is. i don't have a definitive answer so i'll just go by games i put the most play time into. Mario Kart Double Dash, FIFA from like 04 up until now, Fallout 3, basically any Pokemon game.

3. Name one country you really hate (and if you like, say why)

Can't say I hate a country tbh. Sweden is pretty overrated though.

4. What was/is your worst subject at school/college?

I was gifted the ability to essentially guess my way through high school. I never studied. I would show up to midterms and exams without cracking open a book and usually still pull of a mid to high 80s grade. that kinda changed with math during my later years, and when i started to fall behind i refused to seek extra help so for my last 2 years of high school i definitely didn't do nearly as well in that subject.

5. Do you think DST is a good thing, or a bad thing?

no. watching english football in NA is already difficult, and for that week or two before we flip our time back as well it becomes even harder. brits should change their time to suit our needs imo.

6. What's your main medium for watching TV programmes/films etc?

computer. either on netflix or illegally, although with most films that i'm interested in i'll see it in theatres.

Lots of guys saying 'I don't hate a country'

Maybe TH should have worded it a bit less strongly but just play along tbh. For me it's the US.
