How much would i have to pay you for you to move to michigan and i take your spot in cali.


lol. I moved from california to michigan for grad school even though I had 2 phd offers from decent california schools. hate me?


I wake up around 10 am. I make myself breakfast (usually eggs and a fruit smoothie) and then make breakfast for my stepdad since my mom is usually working at that time. I eat with him and make sure he takes his medicine then I walk him back to his room.

Until lunchtime I browse teamliquid and watch anime. Then I make lunch for myself and my stepdad and do the same general routine.

Sometimes I go on facebook to troll acquaintances from highschool. About half my friends have unfriended me on facebook due to rude comments or upsetting picture comments. I have 1 friend who I talk to MSN on but he has a girlfriend now and has no time for me. So I don't really have any friends I talk to or hang out with.

The average day is lonely and filled with self-hatred and boredom.


Are you being serious? If not then good half-troll. If so then I strongly encourage you to become active in something social and make new friends, the situation you just described is depressing.


I'm being very serious


Join some kind of club or something, even something like a reading group would allow you to meet people. Even better would be some kind of active thing like dance lessons (yuck I know but it's a good skill to have if you don't know how to already). If you are in a period of time where you don't have a lot to do you should at least spend the time developing skills of some kind that are going to benefit you later. Writing those articles for TL is good writing practice so that's not bad, but you should pick up an instrument, start working out, or something!


I play multiple instruments and am interested in illustration and photography. I never make friends even though I joined plenty of clubs in highschool and the photography club/debate team in college before I had to drop out.

I'm super shy and have difficulty talking to people. It's just something I need to work on over time.

What do you think of Lady Gaga?


I think she's a talented musician and that it's unfortunate she's wasting her career on generic pop. It's still catchy ( I'll listen to Poker Face on occasion) but I'd like to see her do more jazz type of music.

Maybe 2 hours or so. There was a period a few weeks ago when that might have been 8-10 but I don't have much in the works besides the OSL coverage, an upcoming TLFE, and a few articles I'm working on slowly.

Terran is my main race but sometimes I play PvT to abuse early game cheese for fun. I'm D level with D+ level TvP but I'm overall pretty bad. I don't play a lot so I doubt we'll ever get a chance to play

Do you ever write/record your own music?

Another question, why do you like PvZ the most because it doesnt have T in it if you are actually a T player?

Do you ever write/record your own music?

Another question, why do you like PvZ the most because it doesnt have T in it if you are actually a T player?


No. My main talent is in mallet percussion (marimba/xylophone/vibraphone/etc.) and battery percussion and I can't afford a vibraphone or a quality drumkit. I played the kits of family members and friends as well as practicing for hours after school on the school set. I'll probably buy a vibraphone since it's convenient enough to keep in an apartment and quiet enough not to bother neighbors.

I got to take home quads while I was in highschool so I managed to get pretty skilled in that as well. In high school I was asked to join a few bands but saw the other members as talentless and wouldn't work with them. I was captain of the drum line for a long time so I'm pretty strict when it comes to the rehearsal and preparation of music and most "musicians" my age aren't prepared to work with me.

I don't have an affinity for composition so I've never really made my own music besides some snippets of melodies here and there.

I also said PvZ was my least favorite non-mirror matchup, not my favorite. My favorite non-mirror is TvP and my favorite overall is TvT.

I have never been to either website and don't plan to because I don't care about the foreign scene and every english commentator outside of Day9/Tasteless/Artosis/Chill is awful.
