Got a Question? Bring It On!
Questions from Baron Samedi

1. What is your middle name?

Robert.

2. What is the most embarassing thing your parents have ever done to you?

I can't really think of any embarassing things they have done to me. Mostly they specialize in making bad decisions for me. Having bad credit at such a young age is pretty embarassing, though.

3. What are you most proud of?

Probably Lost His Keys Man, the comic character that I've been drawing for 10 years. I think he has a really unique look to him, and he just has a lot of positice memories that I can associate with him. I don't think I've ever posted the character on OB, but maybe I'll have to do that sometime.

4. How often do you visit the [Otaku Franchise]?

I visit OB at least once a day, if not multiple times a day. I don't really feel the need to post anymore, though. I don't visit myOtaku very often, but that's because I don't have time to keep up with everyone's lives. My "friends" are visited as soon as there is an update, but I rarely leave comments.

5. Why, Shyguy?

I'm a guy, I'm shy. Hooray. Next.

6. What did you originally think of me from OB?

I don't remember, but chances are it wasn't positive. New members seem to get on my nerves, regardless of how they behave.

7. Do you think anything of me now?

I really like your Hagar avatar, and I enjoy how you leave comments in myOtaku. Other than that, I don't see an awful lot of you on the boards because you don't frequently visit my sections.

8. Name someone from OB who really gets up your nose.

That's not a question. Sorry.

9. Your favourite band?

That's not a full question either, but I'm a big fan of Ozma, Weezer and the Seatbelts.

10. Will you update more often?

It depends on how often people ask me questions, doesn't it? I'd like to update more often, but I think I'd rather keep my thoughts and feelings in a private blog than myO.

Qustions From Mimmi

1. Getting on this trend of being asked questions is just a decoy, isn't it ? You're doing it so we don't notice that you're putting dog/cat collars on our necks with silly names on them and putting us up for adoption, aren't you ? (Basically I'm wondering just what the appeal is to doing this, if it's looking at what questions you'll get/thinking about them/answering them ?)

It's interesting to see what people want to know about me, and I enjoy not having to think of a particular topic to write about.

2. Are more people coming up to you saying "Hey Josh" these days ?

In real life, or online? It kind of bothers me when people say "Hey Josh" online, because it's usually somebody who doesn't know me very well. They do it a lot more these days since myOtaku started, I've noticed.

In real life they say "Hey Josh" all of the time because I wear a name badge at work.

3. What kind of ride would the MyOB be?

I'd imagine it's some kind of simulator ride where the rider could customize it however they wanted to. Like you input some information before you ride and a computer will create the ride automatically. *shrug*

4. If your popularity in here could be traded in for an item/situation, what would you choose?

That's incredibly vague, but yeah, there are a lot of things I would trade my OB popularity for: a nice apartment, good credit, true love, etc. You know, boring things like that.

5. Would you rather write an autobiography on yourself, or do a movie that would be 'based on real events'?

A movie based on actual events would be more fun.

6. Is there a scent that you wish you could bottle up?

The best scents are already bottled. I can't think of anything clever to add.

7. If you could only speak in Shakespearian English, would you immerse yourself in it or go mute?

I would go mute. As quaint as Shakesperian (sp?) English may be, it would drive me insane to hear myself speak it, let alone understand what I'm saying.

Desbreko's Question

1. Boxers or briefs?

Briefs, baby.

Japan86's Questions

1. What do you really think of me?

I think you are too concerned about what other people realy think of you, especially those you only know from OtakuBoards.

2. What ride is the best ride at Disneyland?

I'm a big fan of Star Tours, Space Mountain and the Haunted Mansion. Really I like just about every ride at the park, which is why it makes perfect sense to work there.

3. When you are at Disneyland and it is your day off, which of the two would you choose and why? Popcorn or cotton candy?

Cotton candy usually makes me sick, so I'll go with popcorn.

4. Where on OB is Carmen San Diego?

The Yu Yu Hakusho forum. ha.

5. If you were to Cos play at Anime Expo, what would you dress up as?

I wouldn't do that, but most likely Kamui from X.

6. Would you exchange your yellow Disney coat for anything else in the world?

A clean one, it's getting a little dirty after so much use and it's "dry clean only," bleh.

7. Have you talked with Jenna lately?

We text message each other from time to time, but we haven't actually spoken in a whole.

8. Jump rope or hopscotch?

Hopscotch.

9. Vanilla or chocolate?

Chocolate.

10. The Matrix or Kill Bill?

Kill Bill.

11. Cookies or cake?

Cookies.

-----------------------

12. How tall are you?

6'2"

13. What size shoe do you wear?

12's, I think.

14. What does your voice sound like?

Like umm... my voice? I don't know.

15. What would you and Greg do when you two meet up?

Go to Anime Expo. Hang out. Not entirely sure what else yet.

16. If you were to die the next day, what would you be doing now?

Probably writing up some sort of will, or drawing little cartoons to adorn my casket with.

17. Who is the biggest rambler on OB?

PoisonTongue and Mitch are equal, in my opinion.

18. Who do you think is the best writer overall on OB?

I like James' and Saras' stuff. I don't a whole lot of everyone else's stuff, unless they post it in Kill Adam or something.

19. What do you prefer to wear: Flip flops? or tennis shoes?

Tennis shoes.

20. What type of vehicle do you drive?

2003 Silver Jetta.

Shinmaru's Question

1. Is there any one (or more, perhaps) ride that you could ride all day long at Disneyland and not get tired of it? Why?

No, I'd get tired of doing just about anything all day long.

Transtic Nerve's Question

1. What would you think about moving o Orlando?

I really don't want to move out of Southern California. I have everything I could ever possibly want down here, and moving across the country is probably not the best thing for me right now. I can't move that far to work for so little. If I ever move far enough in the company and an opportunity comes to move to Orlado (or even Hong Kong, since a new Disney park is opening there soon) I would most likely take it.

Sara's Questions

1. What are three of your favorite songs, and where might I find them?

"A Place Called Home" by Kim Ritchey (Album: Rise), "Possibilities" by Weezer (Album: Maladroit), "1000 Words" by um.. somebody? (Album: FFX-2 OST)

2. If you could kill one person in history (for any reason, and without those nasty paradoxical repercussions) who would it be, and why? And who's the runner-up?

Hitler seems like the most obvious choice, so I'll go with that. I'd also like to kill the person (or persons) who shot JFK, just because of how interesting the time-paradox repurcussions would be.

3. Which Disney Princess am I most like?

Belle, I suppose. I can't imagine any of the others (maybe Ariel) mailing out envelopes for free stickers.

4. Which do you find more interesting: Typewriter, or calligraphy?

Typewriter.

5. What's your favorite flavor of Jelly Belly?

I like combining the cherry and cream soda ones.

6. Which character has been in more animated theatrical shorts than Mickey Mouse and Bugs Bunny combined? Popeye!
