FATMOUSE > YOU
~ Non-Mod-Amy, aka Amy of the Lost Ark You are a Bookholder. To prompt, or...LINE! (not to prompt) --not to prompt. That is the question. Whether t'is nobler to suffer the slings and arrows of a bad memory, or to take arms against a sea of textual deviations, and...LINE! (by opposing) --by opposing them...LINE! (end) --end...LINE! (them) --end them...LINE! (to prompt, to correct; no more; and by a correction to say we end the heart-ache of a really terrible performance) You didn't have to give me the whole thing! I know it! |

Hmph. Like I've never had my member name, member title, sig, or picture abused by mods before. Buncha sadistic nutjobs, all y'all. So, apparently, I get asked different questions than y'all. What are you doing? Nothin'. Seriously, could you stop doing that? Doing what? I told you to stop that! 1. That's not a question. 2. Stop what? Why did you do that? I didn't do anything! What made you think that was a good idea? What?!?! I haven't even moved! What are you thinking of doing now?!? I'm not even moving! Why are you doing that? WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?!?! *Sigh* How have you survived until now? I didn't do anything! ---------------------------------------------------------- "It really is fun to to stick burning objects into various orifices."

Hrmm... I guess I'll do one of these before fatmouse himself gets here....
Is your name REALLY Nyssa? Yes. Now stop asking. But, why is your name Nyssa? Because it's on my license. No, Really, why? Well, I'm named after a Doctor Who character. I'm serious. So.... your parents are geeks? Yes. My dad may own more anime and video games then I do. They also has a closet full of very old... and some new games. Yes. My parents are geeks. So am I. What's with all the drawing stuff? I like drawing. It's what I do. I'm going to art school, because really... I don't belong in the bussiness world... I just.... draw. Why do you keep changing your screenname? Well, mainly becuase I want to. I get bored easily and enjoy constant change. I think it ads a little colour and flair to not only this board, but to life, the universe, and... everything in general. Yes, it may be confusing but.... it's me. So... what, you enjoy confusing people and being generally crazy? ......hm..... No comment. *giggles* Why are you allowed to have sugar and caffienne... and pointy objects, while I'm asking...? Heehee.... I'm not sure myself... *giggles more* stats? um... level 15 rogue... oh, um... I mean... I'm 20 years old as of... bout a week ago. Bout 5'4"... My eyes really do change colours, so they're listed as grey...with spots of amber and blue.... And my sign is fire rabbit virgo. And I think my bloodtype is O-... that's everything, right? Right... well...just one more thing.... you're kinda young round here...? ....yes... Mind if I call you "kiddo" or something like that? Don't make me sic my rats on you... You have rats? I'd have a giant one if I could... Curse you Africans who have giant rats! I want one!!! But... yes. Yes.... And they're hungry, I'm done here. *scuttles out of thread* ~Nyssa: Shapeshifter extraordinaire~ ~~~-------~~~ Cthulhu for president~Why vote for the lesser evil? -------~~----- "Of course I'm paranoid, everyone's trying to kill me!" - Weyoun ~~~------~~~ You are an Illuminator.

State your name: Why? You can read it right over there, on the left.
Are you asking us to believe that's your real name? Uh, yeah ... except that my surname has more than one letter. Couldn't you come up with something more creative than your name? Why, is there any money in that? Why are you here? I figured I could be opaque and 'clever' on more than just one board; so now I inflict myself on two sets of geeky, dweeby book readers. What's with all the italics and ellipses? I'm practicing 'wry'. Are you just another of MOM's slavish devotees? He'll have nothing of me, actually. (I think it has something to do with my accusing him of not liking scotch.) SO, are you going to continue as a board member and NG fan? NG who? |

So hi there, how're you?
I'm well, and yourself? Well? I'm a former Lit major. Old habits and the need to be grammatically correct, (at least in writing) die hard. Fortunately, I'm not nearly as pompous as it makes me sound. Oh, ok. So, what's it like living in New York City? I don't anymore. To be accurate, I haven't for somewhere about 15 years. But your profile says... Yes it does. New York City is not the only New York. So why'd you change your screen name to The Wanderer? Because a lot of my life has been spent on mental, emotional and spiritual wandering, and because my old one no longer fit me. Plus, although most of my various non-physical wandering is over, (or at least calm for the moment), I soon hope to translate it over to the physical realm. (Watch for the James world tour, coming soon to a country near you! ).So you're Italian? Italian-American, yes. I wouldn't insult Italians from Italy by lumping myself in with them. Sicilian? ... Close enough. Are you... No. But... No. Strike one, by the way. So is The Godfather your favorite movie? ... Do they actually pay you to do this job? *Grumbles something about wastes of money* No, it is not, and in fact I never saw it until I was in my early 20s. So you're a Italian-American, Irish-American originally from Brooklyn? You must be one hard drinking, hard partying, loud, hot tempered, cursing, ball scratching, crotch grabbing, family oriented, superiority complex having son of a bitch! Strike two. Next question. Why'd you come to this Board? I was a huge fan of Sandman, and after having finished it and some of Neil's other works, I was curious one day and wandered on by. Why are you still here? To blatantly steal a term used upthread by punkyfins, (nice term coining by the way, punky  ) it's my cyber-home. Lots of cool people and lots of history has gone down here. And there are still, after all these years, cool, smart, geeky people here who make me laugh and that I enjoy hanging out and talking with.So what's with your tormenting of Nyssa? Hehe. Well, we started talking on IM, and the next thing you know we're having fun playing off some kind of twisted jerky big brother/bratty little sister thing. (Furious, Nattie, eat your hearts out ). And it's just so much fun to call her stuff like kiddo... her reactions are great. ... You're kinda twisted. What, you're just figuring this out? Besides, it's not like the abuse is a one-way street.You shouldn't pick on a girl like that! Hey, I'm not a sexist pig like you. I believe firmly in equality of the sexes. Stats? As of this posting: just turned 27, about 5'9, about 200 pounds, (mostly muscle these days, although my eating habits mean it'll never entirely be), Libra, metal monkey, manic-depressive psychopath... oops, can we take out that last bit? So are you sure you're not in the Mafia? Strike three. So long, it was fun. (Except when you were being a moron). James Wandering, but not lost. "You are a Knight Errant. All of the fun of rescuing damsels, and none of the paperwork." |

I hate you. 
It is so. I'm completely innocent in this. Seriously, James is pure evil. Don't believe his lies. LIES. Edit: oh, yeah. James, I AM NOT A BRAT. *ahem* that is all. This message has been edited.

Aw kiddo, you're so cuuuuuuuuuuuute when you're pretending to hate me. *Fondly musses Nyssa's hair*
 You're so funny, little Nyssa-chan. You, who beats up and physically abuses most of your friends and rants about being Queen of the Universe, trying to pretend to be innocent and non-bratty! It's sheer comedy gold! James Wandering, but not lost. "You are a Knight Errant. All of the fun of rescuing damsels, and none of the paperwork." |

Can I see your rocketship underpants?
It doesn't count if you ask me online. How did you end up here? I'd sent in my Fiddler's registration and hadn't heard back, so I was looking around for something to reassure me that I hadn't just been conned out of a C-note by Neil Gaiman. After that, I stuck around because I have no place else to go! Why are you always trying to be so witty? Because I'm crying on the inside. If I come to Chicago, will I meet you? If you nag me enough. And aren't too scary. Can I see Astrid? That all depends on how much of the spectrum of light you can perceive. So do you have a Son Of Sam type relationship going on with your cat, or what? Well, she hasn't asked me to kill anyone yet, but I think it's only a matter of time. Are you now, or have you ever been, a member of the Communist Party? I'm not naming names!!! Can you make friends with salad?  Clearly not. What's your connection to Hugh Hefner? When I first moved downtown, I lived in an apartment across the street from the original Playboy mansion (now it's condos.) At the same time, I was working across the street from Playboy International Headquarters. It was kinda freaky. What other quasi-encounters have you had with the rich and famous? Robert Duvall once asked me for directions to a tango competition. I didn't know where it was, and didn't realize he was Robert Duvall until after he left. I saw Trading Spaces's Paige Davis play Roxie Hart in a production of Chicago. (She was okay, a little old for the role, but it was a bad production.) Afterward, the cast collected for some charity in the lobby, and I tossed a $20 into her bucket, because hey, it's Paige Davis and I love her. I didn't really think she'd notice, but sure enough, she pointed at me and shouted, "Hey, THIS GUY just threw in 20 bucks!" I was thrilled to have been the subject of a sentence uttered by Paige Davis. What's your favorite trumpet concerto? The Arutunian. The Hummel is also nice, particularly the second movement. What about the Hindemith sonata? It's the musical equivalent of a head cold. Do you really enjoy shows like Smallville and Gilmore Girls? I'm an Aerie girl at heart. What's your new philosophy? Why are you telling me? When did you start wearing purple? When I went to Northwestern. Are you bummed about their loss to Michigan today? Yeah, but we'll get 'em next year. Can you growl? Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! That wasn't a growl. That wasn't a question. |

What is your deal with lunch anyway?
There was a time that I would show up on the Shift thread everyday for my lunch break at work. People noticed and I got recognized for this "so called" achievement. I still seem to be able to make the post, at least for now. What is the name Lan Martak from anyway and why should I care? It is the main character of my favorite fantasy series that I read as a kid called "The Cenotaph Road". If you can find this series from the mid 80s, I highly recommend it. It was my Harry Potter. Why do you hate avocados so? When I was a small child an avocado............ touched me in a bad place. Wait..... no that is not it. Avocados are disgusting, end of story. Why do your posts contain so many typos? Most keyboards are too small for my fat fingers. It is my fault and nothing to do with my poor grammar skills. Why did you join the Board? I am very glad you asked. I had just read American Gods and really, really, really, really wanted to know who the unnamed god in the gray suit was. To this day I have not heard an definitive answer. I still think it is the god Amen. Some day I will kidnap Neil and make him tell me. ------------------------------ my cup runs over but I am so blind I just complain as it spills around me |
