Here for your amusement is my FAQ. Which will probably be less frequently asked questions and more like utter twaddle.
What's your name all about then?
It stems from my obsession with "The Dark Knight", more specifically Alfred's line "Some men just want to watch the world burn". A quick bit of paraphrasing later and ta da! Watch It Burn. Its also from the AFI song "Paper Airplanes (Makeshift Wings)" and to a lesser extent "Under a Killing Moon" by Thrice.
What the hell is going on with your hair boy?
I like the colour red, and I want to carry it around with me. As a plus it elicits amusing comments from morons such as "What's up with your hair, you gay or something" and "I don't see why anyone would want to dye their hair that colour". None of which really bothers me. However I did nearly punch an old lady cos she said my spiky hair looked like Gareth Gates'. That's a step to far.
Is it true you are fuelled by booze?
Yes. Unfortunately after consuming my daily supply I need to rest to properly process it. And it takes a few hours in the morning for the effects to kick in.
Why are you no longer allowed within 200m of Rachel Leigh Cook?
That's not actually true, its just an interesting way to segue into something else about me.
It's something to do with Josie and the Pussycats isn't it?
Damn right. That movie is almost like fetish porn to me.
How so?
Girls, guitars. Dunno why but a girl that can play the guitar is more appealing to me than nearly everything else.
Do you need to take a minute?
No I'm cool. Continue questioning.
Ok. You have to choose one song to listen to for the rest of your life.
Just one? Can't I have five? I can do five.
Alright then
1. New Noise - Refused
2. Stellastarr - Somewhere Across Forever
3. She Bangs the Drums -The Stone Roses
4. Beat City - The Raveonettes
5. Girl From Mars - Ash
and in sixth
6. Accidents - Alexisonfire
Hey! Thats cheating.
Whatever, I'm writing this thing. You nearly done?
Almost. So we're you from anyway?
Denbigh. Its in North Wales. And it's the coolest place on earth if you really enjoy experiencing the word "Moribund".
Moribund, that's a big word.
I've got an English degree don't you know. Which also means I'm entitled to make up words, and also spell existing words anyway I feel.
Why do you fancy Buffy Summers, but not Sarah Michelle Gellar?
One of them is a hero that saves the world on a regular basis. The other is an actress that makes bad movies (I did like Southland Tales though).
You realise she's not real?
Yes, its a constant source of frustration.
Onto less odd things, what exactly do you have against cabbage?
Its tasteless pointless crap. It's like celery, but at least that's crunchy. Crunchy is good.
Well I'm kinda bored of all this
Fair enough. I'm tired of responding to an imaginary voice in my head.
