Alright, confess odd things.

For example, I'm jealous to my big brother becuase he discovered The Smiths first. Dammit, now I can't have a crush for Morrisey without feeling weird about it.

I know this probably goes in the misconceptions you had as a kid but I used to think Beast Wars was the main canon so to speak. Like Optimus Prime was always meant to be a Gorilla and it was the seasons that made him a truck robot that deviated in my eyes.

I primarily listen to music that's meant to be for the background of something. I rarely go and listen to stuff made to be music on its own, I prefer something made to help set the scene for another work. That way, there's usually more detail and oomph in it for me. All I have for stuff made to be music is the title and the art for it if any.

Checking in on this account after leaving the site, MAN that is a cringy forum post history. Daaamn. Never again.

I don't know how to handwrite a lowercase q. At best they look like variants of lowercase a's.

I just give it a tail (for lack of better terms).
So, like.

[up][up]Same, but with lowercase A’s. I write them like the no longer used letter Thorn (þ) flipped horizontally.

I write my lower case Qs like mirrored lower case Ps, but to differentiate my 9s from them I write 9 like an upside-down 6. I also differentiate my 1s from my capital Is and lower case Ls by giving my capital Is lines on the top and bottom and my 1s a little sticky-out bit at the front on top and a line on the bottom.

I write my lowercase "y" with the tail curving in the opposite direction. (Kinda like the tail of a cat that's deciding on something. Or trying to slap someone in the face with it.)
And my lowercase "a", well, like how most fonts (such as Arial and this site's fonts) depict them.

[up] I didn't really know that was a thing.

On an unrelated note, even though I'm really scared of large spiders in real life (I don't mind ones that are smaller than my fingernail), I think in fiction they can be cool or even cute.

I made a trope list on a Google Doc for both the absolutely terrible animation/slideshow that I will probably never publish, and the parody of said animation/slideshow that I will also probably never publish. Here's one very sensible example from said parody:

Deus ex Machina: Downplayed. When the Sluffs are about to kill the Serious Kenja, Lion Sou suddenly crashes the Red Baron into the airship, killing all the Sluffs. However, he also ended up killing all the Serious Kenja, with the exception of h and Very Pluto.

I have two different categories for game franchises: there's the "play" ones, like Pokémon and Fire Emblem where I will happily buy and play them for whatever console/handheld I have if they're available, and then there's the "watch" ones, like The Legend of Zelda and Mega Man, where I'm content to just watch others play them, either because they don't interest me enough to actually have a place in my collection or because I just plain suck at them [lol]

I sometimes shame myself into doing something I don't want to by imagining a celebrity being disappointed in my bad habits.

I have a lot of ideas for stories in my head, but lack the will to even write them down.

I finally started one of my final projects after putting it off for a while (partially because I was confused about the concept). I managed to get most of it done in about an hour and I will learn absolutely nothing from this.

And given my last day of school is Friday I'm kinda in the "I have nothing to lose" mindset at this point. Whoops.

Cold turkey's getting stale. Tonight I'm eating crow.
