    If this has been asked already 'pologies :)

    If you had a time machine and could change one event in history (a) would you, and (b) what would it be?

    (a) I would like to say no. There's no garuantee things will work out for the better. Still, would I be able to resist trying?

    (b) Stop Adolf before he started.

    why do birds suddently appear, every time you are near?

    favourite movie? (excluding anything TF related)

    If there was an afterlife and you could take one thing/person/object/etc with you, what would it be?

    when the noc forum started did you really think it would grow as huge as it has become?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,255 ✭✭✭anonymous_joe


    Which is more adorable - a basket full of puppies, or one full of kittens?


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 28,633 Mod ✭✭✭✭Shiminay


    If you could have written any famous/popular/reasonably well known song, what would it be and why?

    Have you ever considered doing more art/comics? You do have a good talent for that style of drawing.

    What feature would you like to see added or removed from boards most? :D

    1- I have a super power with attracts and mentally controls all avian life.

    2- It's a guilty pleasure but Mallrats is probably the film I've watched and love the most, even though it's clearly not the "best" (prob the Shawshank redemption... love that film).

    3- My sense of humour... it'd be fun being a mishievous ghost.

    4- I had no idea at all. I always thought the Noc would be BGRH's/tLL's little awkward goth brother in the corner...

    You ask the keeper of Zeus this?

    Puppies every time. Although kittens are very cute and great tiime waisters to watch, they unfortunately grow up to be cats, whereas dogs are always cool.

    1) Bohemian Rhapsody. c'mon, it's freaking bohemian rhapsody. A work of musical genius AND insanely popular.

    2) All the time. Seriously, all the time. I would love to be creating something on a permanent basis when college finally ends but I have had many offers over the years for people to do the other work- promotion, story writing, inking, backgrounds, typo, et al- but no one ever gets past the dreaming stage.

    3) I'd love for warnings to be percieved by users as what they are- a friendly word of advice from the local mod- but conversely for infractions to have more weight to differentiate the two. I think that would save ALOT of misunderstandings.

    As a user I would love a kind of plug n play feel to the front page where I decide what pops up when I log onto Boards.

    1) I'm only really learning about cars now so purely from an aesthetic point of view I'd go with Jags. Some of them have really classy, timeless looks. There's one in particular I really like... I think it's a mid ninties x class, although I could be wrong.

    2) I'd spend the rest of my life knee deep in academia, learning and perhaps even researching and teaching, giving some back.

    1. Scooby. I never really 'got' snoopy.

    2. Daffy. He's Megatron in their antagonistic relationship, but Bugs is no Prime.

    3. I'd kill to be a voice actor on Transformers. Failing that, Doctor Who.

    Great White.

    I am assuming the Great white has enough room to maneuver. If so his dermal denticles will rip through the layers of flesh on the bear which will cause blood loss, while also allowing protection to the shark. In the water, the shark's cartilaginous skeleton will also give it a huge agility advantage.

    The initial strikes with the dermal denticles will drive the shark into a blood frenzy mixed with the desire to defend one's mother's honour. Then it's jaw versus jaw. It's close, but GW takes it.

    I agree, the shark had a look at this video;

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uvrvxmZ0jVg

    The shark I'm presuming did get a help from the rhino, they're pretty close friends so I hear.

    2- Yes but I have to be careful as I suffer an allergic reaction to pollen. Can't sniff too much. :)

    3- All the time. Favourites are lovely juicy crisp red apples or just ripe pears.

    4- That I own, or in general on other people?

    While I may exaggerate, I do feel uncomfortable in 25+ degree heat, and I will start getting depressed with sunlight if I wake up to it day in, day out, like most people are with rain. Seriously!

    In your opinion who was / is the best Dr Who?

    Torchwood, cack or class?

    2) Torchwood, cack or class?

    1) Sylvester McCoy is "My" Doctor if you get me, but I think no one has done as much for the role in as short a space a time as David Tennant has. You can tell as well when he leaves, he'll be back for guest appearances, special events etc. He appreciates what the role means to alot of people (unlike Tom Baker, Christopher Eccleston et al. who wanted nothing to do with the role once the big pay cheques ran out).

    2) Started out cack, sliding up to acceptable by the end of season 2. Hoping for a continuation to class for season 3.

    3. Personal traits, worst and best??

    5-favourite song to play?

    best gig you have ever been to?

    1- Er... Connery I guess.

    2- Fight Club. Just came out at the right time for me.

    3- South Park, but from the list I think the Simpsons have the most amusing moments.

    4- Either Shawshank Redemption or american Psycho, I would guess.

    5- Die Laughing by Therapy. Really good momories every time I play it.

    6- A show called citizen in Eamon Doranns featuring a one man show thing called Lube: Project X. Interesting multimedia thing which really, really caught me. No idea if it's still going though.

    1- No. I'm big boned :D

    2- I would rock the very flesh from the bones of my enemy from the vibrations of a sharkfin flying v playing a low e through a million marshall stacks.

    3- I think it's fair to say I can be boundlessly enthusiastic and creative about something which captures my imagination.

    Unfortunately, I can also get very obsessive for the same reason.

    T-rex but only the really upright version from my childhood. The one who Zoidzilla copied.

    These days, Diplodicus because it looks like it will tip over and smack it's head off the ground at any time.

    1. Reservoir dogs is the one which made me go wow when I watched it.

    2. He reminds me of Kevin Smith, he's one of the best when he's on form, but he gets slated if he does anything less than amazing.

    3. Fondest is when everyone voted me for mod in the first place. it's nice to know people thought that highly of me.

    Worst... no specifics but one time I can recall I should have copped myself on and acted quickly, but I was new and was thinking about things too hard. Sorry if thats not satisfying but there's only so much I can say about it :

    4. Boards best quality is the wealth of knowledge and intelligence on tap. If you dive into the culture of Boards, you get out alot more than you give.

    Worst... I hate that mods have to man the ramparts against trolls et al. I wish people would just not bother with boards if they don't want to contribute. If you do not wish to create, why do you have to destroy? I don't understand the mindset.

    If you were dared to give up the internet how long do you think you could last without it?

    Who would be on your ideal pub quiz team (4 people, living or dead)?

    Any interest in politics?

    If you were a Pokemon what type would you be?

    Did you ever honestly think the Noc Forum would grow to be as big as it is now?

    Are you tired of me asking questions?

    Should I stop now?

    Douglas Adams
    Noam Chomsky
    Someone to do sports, probably one of those presenter dudes.

    3- Yes, very much so. I come from a left wing family.

    I adopted DC + V as I am trying to lose weight (I had lost 2.5 stone before Germany struck and did some damage) and I calculated that as the least damaging way to get drunk.
