I think seven. Seven is a good number of spoons. It has alliteration and c'mon, who *wouldn't* want seven spoons.

whats your favorite smell?

My favourite smell is not something they like mentioned round these parts >.>

Second favourite smell was the smell of my guitar/guitar case when i first bought it though

do you like to boogie?

The rumours of my dancing skills have been greatly exaggerated. But yes, i have been known too "boo-gie". I have gotten down, on numerous occasions. Requires good choons though, if i hear some massive attack i have a tendancy to break out the groove :pac:

whats your middle name?

John

what colour are your socks?

Black. All of my socks are black, this way i never worry about mismatching :pac:

Favourite album?

Phwoar, now that's a question. I'd have a hard time picking a single favourite, it changes depending on mood and time etc. but the following are consistently up there..

The Wall, Dark Side, Animals - Pink Floyd
Ok Computer, The Bends - Radiohead
Electric Ladyland - Hendrix
Zeppelin IV - zeppelin
Beautiful Freak - Eels
Jeff Buckley - Grace
Siamese Dream - Smashing Pumpkins

Sorry, that was a terribly vague answer

All Along the Watchtower by Dylan or Hendrix?

Hendrix. Dylan's version just doesn't have the same effect, it's too dreary, it feels like a review of some lyrics set to music. but for AATW, Jimi just reaches out, grabs you, screams in your face and makes you feel every note in that solo. It's an amazing track

What kind of badger?

I saw a badger out here in bogland for the first time in years a few weeks back, running clumsily on the road, caught in our headlights. I think mine would be a regular Irish badger, they are such adorably uncoordinated little individuals. They're supposedly aggressive and territorials, but they just look like funny little balls of fluff wobbling on tiny legs!

Do you ever feel as if your spoon is too big?

Dont get fat and sassy with me, Rose!!

Are you and Randy the same person?

yes.

And we are both 27 year old brazilian swim-wear models.


What do you want to be when you grow up?

A kid again

Nah, iunno. Some job where i can work 3 days a week and afford rent, food and a few pints every now and then, and leave with me lots of free time. Possibly contract programing work from home

Ever fancied a Noc? (apart from Randy)

Ha, does anyone answer that question truthfully :pac:

Well, we all know about me and Randy.

Hey Randy

Describe your ideal sammich!

Sandwich. Saaaaaaandwich. Sand witch.

Roast beef with gravy and mayonnaise

It's sadly not as exciting as many of the names around here!


Had to get an email account when i was 11, so i could register on online gaming sites and pwn n00bz. Couldn't think of any names that weren't taken, and eventually my brother just came up with the least likely yet memorable name he could think of. Badgerwithaspoon. I shortened it for forums and other places with small char limits

Just realized i haven't actually hit the 1 char minimum length.

...8==D

So...what brought you to boards and more specifically the noc forum?

At first it was for advice on buying guitar amplifiers! Instruments forum was somewhat helpful in that respect.

Found the nocturnal forum at 3am one summer night, about 4 (4?) years ago. The forum had only been up about 3/4 weeks at that point. Spent most of that summer up until dawn anyway, so i seemed to fit in quite nicely

jokettle

Do you really work in a building in Trinity? Because I overheard people looking for directions to that building (O'Reilly?) and no-one was able to help them. Therefore, I think you made it up and kept telling people about it until some believed it exists and now you laugh at them and rub your hands in glee at their confusion and lost-ness.

spoonbadger

I have not done this.

I will, however, now do this

But yes! It does exist, it's the massive building directly opposite yours ya silly fecker :P

Pitted prunes are a strong laxative, i think this might work in their favour.

Why won't county councils allow planning permission for houses made of marzipan?

...

Do you steal any items from your place of work?

I've nicked lots of computer gear from skips in trinity, but that stuff was in a bin destined for the dump anyway. i feel no immorality over this

Is global warming a complete scam?

Nothing is ever a complete anything. I'm sure there are many merits to the global warming theory, no doubt over or under exaggerated depending on which side of the fence you lie in the debate.

It fell out while you were doing a handstand. Please refer to the Daniel Johnston medical textbook for advice on how to retrieve it.

Hmmmmmm, eeeeeeenteresting....
A silver Mt. Zion
Jimi Hendrix
Pink floyd
Radiohead
Led Zeppelin
To name 5, although there's sooooo many others i would rate just as highly as those. not enough time/space!



Name a song you wish you'd written?

Aaaaaah, so many!
Comfortably numb - Pink Floyd
God Bless Our Dead Marines - A Silver Mt. Zion

both of these spring to mind

Monopoly or The Game of Life?

Monopoly and all its associated rage and malice :pac:

Favourite childhood toy/game?

Lego

Are you ferocious like a badger?

I'm about as ferocious as a bag of crisps dear.

What's your favourite type of dinosaur?

Brontasaur. C'mon, how cool would it be to look down at all the other dinosaurs, running around frantically, while you plod along lazily eating leaves

What do you think of this whole lark of taking a bestselling novel/series and turning it into a movie? Are there any of these movies that you think are better than the novels?

I hate it, in general. Mass media has a wonderful way of exploiting every ounce of creativity it can get its hands on, to squeeze out the last few cents. If the movie justifies itself, then grand. But if its just another bank account for the franchise then it's missing the point entirely.

If you could earn a living working 3 days a week in a morally ambiguous job for a lot of money or working 5 days a week for a job that would somehow make a difference/help people but for very little money which job would you choose?

5 days a week, definitely.

Hmmmm. Mags does have the whole martial arts thing going on. And BaconZombie does have the boots.

Ultimately, i'm pretty sure Few would turn up late after everyone had killed each other and win by default

Have you ever been in a fight and if so,who won?

Nah, not really. In any case, unless i was fighting a blind cripple, i'm pretty sure i wouldn't have much of a chance :pac:

1 celebrity,1 night,who?

Shirley Manson, when she was younger.


Just hope she wouldn't **** in my cornflakes...

I live 7 miles deep in the backarse of Kilkenny. Tuddle talks in RP compared to us rustic mountain folk :pac:

Arm.

Haven't been to the cinema in yonks, can't even remember what i would've last seen. May have been transformers 2. At any rate, films these days nearly always disappoint me.

Guitar (electric, acoustic, spanish classical), piano, bass, banjo (a li'l), harmonica and drums (neither when sober...)

Angry beavers ^_^

Milk *and* pineapple on pizza?! :eek:

Surely you are joking, Mr. Feynman!

If you had to trade lives with a Noc in a hilarious escapade plot out of a cheesy movie which Noc would it be and would you touch yourself in your new body?

Jokettle. I would put on her lab coat, and run around trinity, throwing test-tubes at all the lecturers and administrative staff who i dislike, with no fear of (personal) recrimination :pac:

Then i'd probably relabel everything in her lab to "poo"

If you could have any super power what would you choose? If another Noc got super powers and became your arch nemesis who would they be and what powers would they have?

The power....

OF DANCE! :eek:

My nemeseseses would be trowelled and emo, leading to some kind of climactic and incredibly cheesy dance-off.

Neither. Never been a comic reader :P

Daddy, as he a provider of chips

Much respect for this choice. Love that book. Favourite character? Favourite scene from the book? Ever seen the movie?(have yet to see it myself)

Catch 22 is quite amazing! It's been years since i read it, tempted to read through it again now. Yossarian, obviously, but Milo after him. Seemingly so blissfully unaware

Loved the scene where they're going through the small town where Milo is the mayor, as he explains how the whole enterprise works. Haven't seen the movie, would like to though!

One song?...

This totally happened btw. You were fine until you started eating, then you just turned bat****! They must've slipped meth in your kebab :P

Do you like horror movies?

If the answer to the above is yes,who is the ultimate horror movie villain?

Otis Driftwood wrote: »

Che Guevara comes to mind. Ever since reading The Motorcyle Diaries (oh! should've thought to put that on my favorite books list actually)

Also, Hendrix, Rachmaninoff and Daniel Johnston.

Have you any phobias?

Yes, anything organizational and important. I cant fill out forms, or especially use locks/alarms/doors in stressful times without getting quite nervous and panicky

Also, somewhat disproportional fear of mental illness

If you could only watch one movie for the rest of your life,what would it be?

Almost famous

Love that film so very much

Do you like horror movies?

Yes, but not silly horror movies. Silence of the Lambs is en excellent example of my kinda horror film. It's not just instant gratification with people getting hacked to bits without explanation, or people running through woods to try scare the **** out of you. It has a storyline about events which when portrayed scare the **** out of you! Story comes first, a film shouldn't set out to be scary, as then it either seems unconvincing or overdone.

If the answer to the above is yes,who is the ultimate horror movie villain?

Unsurprisingly, Hannibal Lector
