Industrial music! What do you think of it? I've been getting into it more and more - it's like punk, but more complex, and I love synthetic music. I have pretty much since I was a little kid, playing around on her Commodore 64 (well, it was a C128, but I mostly used it in C64 mode), goddamn, they made great music with that system... okay, I'll stop now.
Short: As long as it's not harsh, I think it can be great.
Long: I don't like harsh music; music with lots of noise, or at least not added noise - cheering crowds and fingers slipping up guitar strings are good. But for me, hissing, rasping and distortion are fun only in moderation - and counterproductive when they obscure the lyrics or instrumentals.
Awesome clothing though; love the look.
7. Which ST:TNG character do you identify with the most?
Short: Wesley.
Long: That was basically me when I was watching Star Trek: bright, socializes with adults awkwardly, but better than with peers. Shit taste in clothing. Helpful. Creative.
8. Babylon 5 character?
Short: Ivanova.
Long: I liked her ability to be stubborn, blunt, sharply honest, and a clever team player. She was fatalistic without being depressive. This is basically me at work: not in charge, nor noted first and foremost, and glad that someone else can take that leading position. Working on a dozen minor background tasks, awestruck by the level of professionalism from my co-workers, and happy to beat down the CFShadows, then go for a walk to tie up loose ends before leaving, only to be replaced by someone who leaves people logging on to "jumped the shark."
