was internet april (back on EG proboards) real? i don't doubt the tangible form, but the internet form seemed a bit...lacking.
 
I was going to ask where your username came from (I've actually been wondering that for a long ass time), but I guess I know now. XD I've got a couple questions.

1) Have you ever read "Ender's Game" by Orson Scott Card?

2) I remember way back in the olden days, you could often be sighted posting on Early Projects delivering some of the best constructive criticism of most members here.  What happened to that?  I rarely see you comment on projects at all anymore.
 
What events do you feel caused the previous administration to hate you so much?

I'm pretty sure they hated me because I wasn't a nice person to all the little kiddies on this forum. I was pretty much the only person, for a long time, who had the balls to say the truth about anything, especially about bad projects, and Erk and ccoa really wanted this forum to be nothing more than a massive circlejerk for prepubescent Final Fantasy fans (something that we're really trying to change these days, but it's pretty much cemented into the roots of this community).

From there it only got worse when I voiced my opinions on matters like this, and when I never joined their inner circle of friends or whatever (Lene, Sketch, Tana, Shifter, etc), they made it a fun group activity to hate me.

Do you like Johnny Bravo?

Used to. I haven't seen it in a long fucking time, but I'd assume that I could still enjoy it. A lot of the humor comes from the title character being a stuck-up "manly man", which can definitely be hilarious at times. A lot more than most of the shit you see on cartoons these days.

Also, why do you think TV sucks now?

Not all TV sucks now, I'm a giant fan of certain shows. In fact the only show that I am really vocal about hating is Family Guy (and sports). Maybe you're getting me confused with Teloch?

1) Have you ever read "Ender's Game" by Orson Scott Card?

Nope.

2) I remember way back in the olden days, you could often be sighted posting on Early Projects delivering some of the best constructive criticism of most members here.  What happened to that?  I rarely see you comment on projects at all anymore.

People rarely listened to anything I had to say. I'd put a lot of time into making real, serious critiques, only for members to blow me off and say that I was flaming them. And frankly, if someone isn't able to take real criticism, they don't deserve it. I lost my motivation. It ties into the first question here, really, in the general attitude of this forum as being a "good job!!" place for little kids who "play RMXP".
 
Hmmm...all of the good questions have been asked.

What do you think is the best project you've ever made? (And it can be a project that was never released)
 
What're you studying, and if you have one, what's your current job?

I already said that I was an English major. I currently have two jobs. On campus, I have a pretty neat job helping teachers with computer things, like powerpoint presentations or web sites for their classes. Off campus, I work at McDonalds. :D

What do you think is the best project you've ever made?

Sandfall.
 
Do you miss "Rocko's Modern life" as much as I do? Also do you remember those Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle popsicles where they had gumballs for eyes? I remember them exclusively during the 90's... ah how I miss the days of my youth. Too bad most people on these forums were born DURING that decade. >.>
 
Man I loved those ice cream bars :x
Mario had one two, his nose was the gumball.

Hey, Des, if you could turn any member into an ice cream bar/popsical thing, who would it be - what flavor, and where would the gumball be?
 
Those WERE awesome popsicles. Oh now I feel a pang of nostalgia D:

Des, if you could be a medicine of any sort (that currently exists), what would you be, and who would you prescribe yourself to?
