And Now For Something Completely Different

I'm not going to say anything about the US elections because you've probably heard it all anyway. I couldn't vote- anyone who knows me should know how I would have voted anyway, and even if you don't know me it doesn't take much to guess. I just hope the UK's Parliamentary Elections on 2006 are more optimistic. Anyway, I'm going to ignore all that for today, heh. Things You Didn't Know You Didn't Know About Solo Tremaine Although technically, some of you might know already. -I am pro choice. And yes, you can relate this to 'I also believe in sex before marriage'. Not that you can really 'believe' in it, but I'm not bound by tight morals in that respect. Come on, I'm male ^_~ Anyway, I voiced my opinions on this way back when I joined AEBoards. I think people should have the right to decide whether they have a child or not, depending on the circumstances. Irresponsibility is a poor excuse, but if a woman was raped or a foetus found to be dsabled, I think the choice is more viable. I couldn't bring myself to raise a severely disabled (i.e. with severe mental deficiencies, genetic disorder or physical incapacity- not anything as trivial as a funny leg) child. It would probably destroy me, knowing that inside they want to be free and express everything they want to, but are trapped inside a body that doesn't do them justice. It's a huge strain on any family to have to cope with that, and I honestly don't think I would be emotionally strong enough to do so. I don't believe that the child is somehow inhuman or inferior, but I want to be able to give them the best life I can, and not at the expense of everyone else I love. I would rather they be free, and I would always remember them regardless. Moving on, heh. -I have never been drunk, and hope I never will be. -I once threw a plastic boomerang into a painting in our house, then didn't own up to it until about a year later. -My favourite sweets are chocolate-covered dried apricots, heh ^_^ -Up until I was eleven or so, I used to cuddle one of my mum's dresses in bed. I still have it. -I believe that one of my greatest achievements is that I learnt to clean and put the seat down after going to the toilet. -I hate it when people don't >.> -*EDIT* If I've made a spelling mistake, I won't rest until I've corrected it. -I still have the metal pins that held my leg in place after I broke it in 1993. They're not in my leg any more though, obviously. -I have never seen 2001: A Space Oddessy, 1984, Gone With The Wind, The Silence of the Lambs, The Sound of Music, Titanic, M*A*S*H, Cabaret, Frankenstein, Brief Encounter, Akira, Pulp Fiction, Cowboy Bebop, The Exorcist, Apocalypse Now, Blade Runner, Citizen Kane, It's a Wonderful Life, any of The Godfather trilogy, Schindler's List, West Side Story or The Wizard of Oz -On occasions where I'm being introduced to someone, I rarely speak unless I'm spoken to first -I have eighteen humour/joke books in my bookcase. -I've read all of them, although not all the way through. -There's an odd peachy smell that either belongs to me or my dog Merlin and I can't tell which. I can only smell it sometimes, so I think it might be the shampoo Mum uses to wash him in. But then... -Only one meal I've eaten has ever made me cry- pasta with cream cheese, salmon and spinach. I don't know what it was about it, but I simply hated it and refused to eat it. -I get incredibly annoyed if I get interrupted while listening to music in my bedroom, but not when I'm at the computer. -Sometimes I can't stand being asked "Are you alright?" -I used to believe I was Fox McCloud *cringes* >.> -Jaws had a bigger effect on me than Alien. -The only commercial chocolate bars I can bear to eat are Twixes and Jaffa Cakes (although I don't know if they can be described as a 'bar', technically). -I think about sex more in a day than I do about learning lines. -It's gotten worse since I joined college >.> -It's not getting any better >.> -I have reading glasses, and even though I never use them, they do help my sight. -I was going to dye my hair white-blonde a few years ago, but decided against it. -I believe Apathy is the greatest sin a person can commit. -I eat peas with cheese. Nummy ^_^ And that's about it for random facts, heh. I was going to post those 17 questions, but I'll wait until everyone's finished with everyone else's before making you type it all out again, heh.
