Very little and few CDs.
That can be a good thing if you are drawing and such.
π: 0 β©: 1
yes, good for drawing most of the time

What do you listen to?
I've got a particular set that I like and know well that I use for drawing extravaganzas, mostly metal (specific varieties) and its musical cousins. It has been far too long since I have sat down and genuinely drawn anything of note.

I tend to listen to rock and alternative. fave bands/artists include the killers, picture atlantic, cage the elephant, florence + the machine, ellie goulding, lissie, keane, phoenix, sara bareilles, and pretty much video game music/ remixes of anything i have played - especially nostalgia-y things
I have so much music at this point that i can no longer name the songs (even if i can sing them...)
π: 0 β©: 1
That's a good list. A lot of classic rock and some oldies that they still play on the radio. The elephant is a fairly new arrival; they got a big break when their music got picked as the intro for Borderlands (Ain't no rest for the wicked). You should listen to Lost Odyssey's soundtrack. It's made by the Final Fantasy guys and has a lot of unique stuff, namely violin, piano and occasional electric guitar. Oh, and tell me if you know his one intro: Dun dun dun dun dun dun dun dun eenoo eenoo eenoo eenoo eenoo eenoo eenoo enoo - long live seraphim seraphim Sephiroth! (noticeable jump, giveaway and possible incorrect lyrics)
Know all the songs? SING ALL THE SONGS!

cage the elephant's music is kinda hit or miss with me but when it's a hit i super dig it. I think the first one I heard was Always Something. I didn't know that Ain't no rest was the Borderlands intro (haven't played that hmmmm)
I just always associate Lost Odyssey with this weird video and binary and computers
haha, i went to a Final Fantasy concert in SF with my friends a year or so ago and they played the Sephiroth song and made the audience sing. One of my friends I went with can actually sing so as i was nearby and got a pretty good rendition

I've not heard more than a handful of their songs but I figured as much. It's not a name you hear frequently mentioned. Do you like the instrumental parts or the singing? Or whatever it is, I guess. lD
If you do get into the series, know that the first game was really an experiment into a new idea and the second one pulled it all together (first is still great, don't get me wrong, and it's also cheaper; I could jump online in it with you if it were fraggin cross-platform compatible).
I am very confused as to what you are referring to. I know a song in binary but it isn't at all related to the game.
Awesome! 
π: 0 β©: 1
not sure what it is that i like. i just like it?
weee cross platform not working is so excitiiing
and nevermind that haha

Right'eo. Rightio. Righty'o. That last one is recognized as a word.
I hope that this year's E3 shows off some real promising stuff that's a departure from what holds us back now. Microsoft says they have big news this year and are even trying to build suspense with a countdown to the date on their site. Fingers crossed.
I don't know, it could be an interesting thing to know.
π: 0 β©: 1
countdown huh, hmmmm
but now i'm so invested in Sony that I don't care haha

I check pretty much all game news, even if I don't have an immediate interest. I like news and if one game company moves up, the others are sure to follow suit.
π: 0 β©: 1
i've been sort of out of the game news circle as of late... i blame tumblr. i have just accepted tumblr as my source of all news and forgone other methods of finding information
and yeah, i don't doubt that the ps4 will be announced right after the next xbox... i keep hoping they aren't announced at all though because i don't want to buy anything
π: 0 β©: 1
Haha. I've found that game achievement/trophy sites are great epicenters for game news. Just ignore the comments.
Yeaaaah. I don't think they'll ever want us to stop buying. I've heard a few names knocked around and I like them. XboxInfinity would be pretty awesome. No real substantiation to that rumor though.
π: 0 β©: 1
always ignore the comments
yeah that's not so bad - well better than 720 or something
π: 0 β©: 1
Should be a rule of the Internet.
Calling it that would just be lazy. The equivalent would be the N128. Nope.
π: 0 β©: 1
it really should be... sometimes they're funny but quite often they make one lose all faith in humanity
π: 0 β©: 1
Quite often they are the product of the younger members of humanity. The much younger members and/or immature elements.
π: 0 β©: 1
one hopes so anyways

You have to remember that anyone with access to a public library and a free email account can post online. That narrows it down to, eh, carry the two, everyone.
π: 0 β©: 1
not eeeveryone
just lots and lots of peoples
π: 0 β©: 1
Tons.
Anyone from the US, anyway. We all technically have access to computers at all times even if we don't use the privilege. I don't know if other countries' libraries have a similar practice.
π: 0 β©: 1
yeah, i'm only thinking of the US but I'm betting there are even portions of this country that don't have reliable access for everyone
π: 0 β©: 1
All of Colorado. Seriously, that state is either open farmland or giant sky punching rocks. South Dakota also has terrible reception; large hills that look like mountains worn to nubs, cliffs, valleys and the badlands (enough said about those). I hear western Nebraska's dunes break up the signal there as well.
π: 0 β©: 1
yeah, i'm sure cell reception gets sketchy everywhere
for the internet though i'm sure most towns have somewhere you can access it for free
i wonder if out in the boonies if you can even get someone to bring the interwebs to your house - my family is from the suburbs and we had trouble getting one company to cover us even though our next-door neighbors had the exact thing we were asking for...
whenever my dad goes to his parents' house we can never call him cuz they only get cell reception on certain areas of their property - so he would have to be standing about 30 feet down the driveway to make a phone call
π: 0 β©: 1
Just like wifi.
Except for the "towns" that consist of 2 gas stations, 10 houses, 4 churches, 3 bars and a partridge in a pear tree.
I've never known a company to refuse a customer. Sounds decidedly like a bargaining pitch for a sale. Naw'sty untrustworthy companieses.
That is very odd. Do they live around large treed areas or patches of hills?
π: 0 β©: 1
4 churches for 10 houses heh
yeah well my mom is the one who deals with them and honestly i feel sorta bad for the salesmen...
they live at the very top of a hill... it's a pretty well populated area though
π: 0 β©: 1
House to church ratio decreases directly proportional to decreasing population.
Does she like yell at them or something?
Hmm. Depending on the placement of the cell tower, it could be that the signal is directed at the bottom of the hill and the top only receives the reflection. Having never worked in that field, that's the best guess I have. lD
π: 0 β©: 1
haha, ohhh yes i suppose it does
you know it's funny because i don't think of my hometown as being a very religious area but there's still churches on every other corner
she's just... a true bargain hunter and manages to squeeze coupons and discounts out of people like no other...
yeah, i really have very little idea how it works
π: 0 β©: 1
It comes from a long history of religion as the center-point of civilization out west. Despite a separation of church and state, church presence acknowledged the people were "good Americans" with an established interest in community. Then we kept them because we didn't want to remove churches or something.
The kind of person you don't want to run into at a garage sale. XD
But your major has more science in it than mine does. :I
π: 0 β©: 1
cuz that would be evil
i was walking past a church with two friends the other day (one somewhat christian and the other agnostic) and i stepped onto church land and they were like omg the atheist didn't exploooode
yes, she is definitely that
not the kind of science that would be helpful in this situation
π: 0 β©: 1
Haha. Yeah, I often make jokes about lighting on fire when I get near a giant wooden effigy or pews. It is weird thinking how normal a church is. There is nothing special about the building that should "ward off evil" or make it a sanctified place. We've got a church here in town with a stained-glass window dome for a roof in the likeness of Abraham Lincoln; his hat resembled the Pope's so he became a holy symbol. XD
You are correct. We must find the right science and harness its power!
π: 0 β©: 1
the image of abraham lincoln in stained glass is kiiiinda cracking me up. let us pray to our lord, lincoln.
i vote for alchemy.

Hollowed be thy hat.
I know that one. Give me one second while I gather the ingredients for Testing+30 and Invisibility.
π: 0 β©: 1
gotta have invisibility.
π: 0 β©: 1
Think of all the shenanigans that are only possible with invisibility, such as walking about with a "floating" sandwich and top hat.
π: 0 β©: 1
i could lie in a corner and hide from school in my invisibility blanket
π: 0 β©: 1
I know something you should hide from more than school.
Debt collectors. Debt collectors everywhere.
Only not really because evasion is illegal and hardly considered a worthwhile stat in PokΓ©mon.
π: 0 β©: 1
evasive pokemon though! dsyfhksudhszsjx double teaaaaaam

Shedinja with double team would be invincible. Wooooooooo... Suddenly, swift. 0_0 But he is immune!
π: 0 β©: 1
that's a terrible thought

He is a fun little guy with very few functionalities compared to others who can fill his same role.
π: 0 β©: 1
Ghosts generally are. Spite, Pain Split, Power Split/Swap, Destiny Bond, Pressure, Levitation, Perish Song, Curse - so many fun opportunities.
One of my friends was discussing PokΓ©mon today and said that "the damage for this move is exactly about this much." "Approximately. The word you are looking for is approximately," I said with an admonishing finger. He then continued his sentence, disregarding the grammatical error since he was already making a statistical one.
π: 0 β©: 1
yes they are if they are on your side and you don't mind them dying in the process of killing other things
that is... that is no.
π: 0 β©: 1
They're ghosts. You can't kill what's already dead... but you can knock it out. Interesting.
You want something that will really bother your grammatical instinct (and mine)? A BBC (DEFG...) article claimed that "the experts recommend looking at and educational report to determine..." A simple error but significant nonetheless.
π: 0 β©: 1
good point.
ha, i read that once and didn't notice it but yeah that's annoying
π: 0 β©: 1
I have a knack for finding small errors that others miss. I may miss them in my own editing but never in someone else's. lD
π: 0 β©: 1
haha, well that's... helpful to others anyways

It results in me being the go-to-guy on the floor for paper editing and peer revision. Not necessarily a bad thing to be known for, unless your prominence in the subject is remembered at midnight on a massively procrastinated paper of significant length.
π: 0 β©: 1
that sounds like what would happen if that was your skill, yes. so fun.
